Classic Servers
From FFXI Wiki
With other games having classic servers pop up and Final Fantasy XI seeing numerous private servers for years, it was only a matter of time before the development team had to field questions concerning the possibility of seeing an official FFXI Classic Server.
2021
In a May interview with Gamer Escape, Akihiko Matsui and Yoji Fujito were asked about a Final Fantasy XI Classic Server.
Gamer Escape: With the launch of World of Warcraft Classic, there has been talk of having classic servers for other games. We’re curious about your thoughts on having a classic server for FINAL FANTASY XI where maybe the level cap is at 75?
Akihiko Matsui: Truth be told, we have no snapshot data of the level 75 era, which would make it very difficult to replicate things as they were back then on this type of server.
Yoji Fujito: As things stand today, we are unable to meet these requests, simply from a version management perspective. If the goal was simply to limit level growth to level 75, that is something that could be done in theory, but we would be unable to provide any changes on top of merely adjusting the level cap and do not have the ability to provide any support for it with our current bandwidth.
Furthermore, it goes against our company philosophy to just toss something out there and say “Here, have fun!” without giving it the due care that our fans would rightfully expect, so a level 75 server it isn’t in the cards at present.
