I kind of get it though. If I were the client in this situation I would trust closed source Google way more than some self-hosted app I’ve never heard of, which could be subject to user-manipulation.

That being said, for personal or nonprofessional use, this thing seems fantastic, especially from a privacy perspective.

Final Fantasy XI is still a beautiful game and is self hostable, but as with most MMORPGs, you need lots of people to get the full experience. Luckily if you’re hosting your own, you can always mod settings to make yourself lvl 99, turn off enemy AI, teleport anywhere, or whatever.
