Today I was doing maintenance on my computer, when I came across my old Final Fantasy XIV files. Out of curiosity, I opened the launcher and found only a message from Square Enix instructing me to uninstall the software as it was no longer playable.
This immediately led me to thinking: "All the game files are still there. It would be a shame to delete them and have them lost forever." Although, I also still have the discs my wife and I spent $100 for years ago. I felt kind of cheated... but then I thought, "...maybe they are not totally useless."
I searched the web for model viewers, or programs I could use to explore the old maps with, or even "play" offline somehow. I found nothing.
I was hoping someone here might have some hidden resources or knowledge regarding potential use for the old game files.
