Final Fantasy XI gets 3 New Expansions Next Year

Here and I thought FFXI was done. Not Square Enix though. Nope. They have three new expansions for the game set to debut next year. I would summarize them for you, but the official press release does such a better job at it, I figured cut and paste would be a prudent decision:

A Crystalline Prophecy – Ode of Life Bestowing™
One day, a giant crystal appeared in the skies above Jeuno, triggering a series of unexplained happenings across the land. Now, adventurers will set forth to unravel the mysteries of this primordial crystal that holds the secret of Vana'diel®'s past.

A Moogle Kupo d'Etat – Evil in Small Doses™
It all started with an innocent drop of rainwater and a rickety, ramshackle Mog House desperately in need of repairs. Little did anyone suspect that this was only the beginning of a harrowing nightmare unheard of in the annals of moogle-kind.

A Shantotto Ascension – The Legend Torn, Her Empire Born™
The eccentric Professor Shantotto returned to Windurst one day after a mysterious, unexplained absence, shocking her colleagues with behavior so outrageous it put her old self to shame! When she goes so far as to proclaim herself ruler of her own empire, adventurers set out to discover the truth behind her alarming shift in personality.


The first of the three expansions, A Crystalline Prophecy, is set to release next spring, with the other expansions to follow in later months.

So, is anyone out there still playing FFXI? Will these expansions get you back into it, or (heaven forbid) get you started in it?
