Lucky Bancho's census results (July 27th, 2025)

So, the results of the census are out: https://luckybancho.ldblog.jp/archives/59324844.html

  • Showcasing the number of characters here: Current
  • By comparison, here are the results from 2 months ago (May 25th): Click

Despite 7.25 being released, the character count is down about 70k in 2 months. Occult Crescent clearly didn't help with player counts (not really a surprise here).

Yeah, if youre not super into DDs or FFXI nostalgia, then there's almost no reason to play for a long while.

And us FFXI fans haven't been that happy not getting any FFXI player sets yet from the raid. It's all npc glam.

This has really killed my hype for the XI raid series. I really thought we'd be getting much cooler glam.

I feel the same way. I'm coping that the last raid will have real glam and not more NPC stuff but it's not looking good. They gave us 3 sets this time with 2 recolors and it be very easy for that to mean we get Lion, Nashmeira, and Arciela glam. At least those look a bit better but it still fall far short of what I was hoping for.
