People have been quitting this game for 20 years. The management at Square Enix is perfectly aware of this fact. I quit for 3 years at one point from August 2017 to about the time in 2020 when Voracious Resurgence was announced. Somehow the game survived without me.
What stupid logic honestly, lets all quit then en masse and see how it does for the game. Obiously they are going to shut it down, clearly a quitter like you couldn't care less. I hate those players that quit for years and come back and try to dissuade others from caring about the game. One day you aren't going to have something to return to. We don't just pay for an online service, theres an obvious obligation that comes with an online game and subscribers. If you don't have new content or things for them to do, you are going to get less revenue.
