I'm certainly not unhappy that they are finally fixing the old, and I believe a lot more is to come during this year alone, but I can't help but to feel that it is a bit too late... which it kind of is, while on the other hand, it never is...
And if 14 didn't flop they wouldn't have touched it. Why do you think we see tweaks to old stuff now, and not more new stuff. They had no future planned for this game past abyssea, then when 14 shit the bed they hastily made "new" old stuff and drastically increased the time required to complete it (by comparison to abyssea).

The company as a whole is bleeding money all over the place, XI is probably its only real money maker left, except for the 100K copies of XIII-2 they will sell next month.

If 14 was successful we would be watching the end credits roll by right now looking for the new game+ button.
