I am coming back to FFXI.. I played about 7 years and left when FFXIV launched.
I left to play FFXIV which started out as a good game it really has not added anything new since launch. It has plenty of content and has plenty of content added regularly its content is always the same though. The game is stale. I have been playing since launch and someone could catch me in 3 months. The game is incredibly easy and way too repetitious. It does have a few things better than FFXI but not enough to hold someone yet. Seems like allot of people are leaving at this point and I have talked to a few going back to FFXI.
That's my current problem with XIV. It has way too much to do once you first start playing, but after you get done with the main story quests and get a max level character it becomes dull and repetitive. It's kind of the case with any game, though, I guess. I've been playing it for over two months now and I don't see myself getting bored for at least another month yet.

I had noticed a massive spike of people coming back to the game after the final installment of Rhapsodies last month.
Although players found their old content IDs begain to instantly activate, a similar amount of people left once the goddess gala expired.
It was nice to see Reisenjima packed to the brim and server populations jump for a few days though.
I haven't had to compete against anyone to enter an area for ages!
The hardest part now is staying interested once the dust settles! Also server merger anyone? :(
That
does sound fun! If FFXI was easier to keep up-to-date I would definitely be logging on during the free periods. :/ POL is such a freakin' nightmare, I wish they would do something about it.
