Anyways, I'm not in your boat, but I wish you clear waters and much wind, or something. ^^
Yeah, that's part of it. Microsoft has a real boner for their exclusive 360 servers.
It's been this way for a while, too. Valve/Steam games such as Left 4 Dead 1 and 2, and Team Fortress 2, to name a couple. Despite having much more efficient and more active communities on PC, Microsoft refuses to allow for mingling.There's also the issue of payments. FFXI actually was given some sort of exception no other game has gotten, wherein even without an X-Box Live Gold account, you could go online and play the game (and with people on PC and PS2, no less!). This time, however, Microsoft won't budge on matters concerning that, and expects you to ante up for their service at the same time as you pay the monthly for FFXIV.
A friend to the end to depend on you can.
