Description
We are ecstatic to announce that we will be holding a Fan Gathering on Thursday February 27, 2020 in Boston! This is your chance to meet like-minded adventurers and old friends over drinks and snacks in historical Boston. There will be drinks, snacks and, of course, trivia time with amazing prizes!

To make the event extra exceptional, we will be bringing in distinguished guests, Director Yoji Fujito and Producer Akihiko Matsui, of FFXI’s development team, all the way from Japan. They will be here for a Q&A session and presentation.

Spots are limited, so it’s first come, first serve. Be sure to reserve your seat now!

Come out and grab a drink with us!

I did some googling and found this event. I can't find it publicly posted anywhere else, BUT ....It is scheduled for 2/27/2020 6pm-9pm in Boston, MA and apparently Director Fujito and Producer Matsui will be there.

Now, to think of a way to express my disappointment in the Beastmaster update, in person, without getting arrested. :)

If you go make sure you get a T-shirt knocked up that says "Yes, it's worth it"

Now the event requires a password. I am skeptical this is real until we see an announcement.

That's the same timeframe as PAX East, so it's not crazy, but kind of weird for it to be less than three months away with no announcement at all.

Although, "sending out the bigwigs from a flagship game to a convention, even if there's nothing immediately planned" is very much a Naoki Yoshida move, so I think this has a better than average chance of being legit.

It'd be really early to announce whatever the 20th anniversary thing is going to be, and they're on the record as saying nothing much is happening before that, so I would guess this is purely a PR move to give the fans something.

Should offer them some duped medals for a decent PLD update..... See how they react. If they automatically turn around accuse them of using 3rd party tool to avoid the question.

Basically, I think an intern or assistant created this event in advance of PAX East and to get a headcount before the actual venue. (This is all pre-announcement).

This is just my educated guess. However, if I've found it before the announcement AND they deleted the thread in the official forums, then SE NA/Cali office is a skeleton crew and the connective tissue between the JP and NA office is complete garbage. I've long assumed that non-JP satellite offices are just extensions of their hands. Can't do a thing without approval from the mother land.

I made a post asking about this on the official forums (asking if its legit), not only did a moderator not answer one way or the other but they deleted the entire thread.

Wait, did you get banned too? If not, that is your reward.

Who’s actually going to this? And should we bring peeps that have no idea what this is like overly religious friends and wear robes similar to?

Then be like, “hail FFxi!” Or “hail afk cp!”

While I do not have the ability to attend, I do appreciate that the Devs are willing to take the time to support the NA fans. For the first time in forever we will not have solely 'JP only' events.

Only about 4 hours away from me, I've always wanted to go to an XI fan meet. I'm sure it won't be that much different than the XIV one I went to (although much smaller.) I hope they give some rainbow mog pell as rewards lol.
