I'm sorry, I wasn't aware that Cyberpunk 2077 was obscure, a niche release. I had the impression it is, and has been one of the most hyped products in gaming history. Seriously though, a lot of people won't be playing the patch - inititially - because of Cyberpunk. This in no way means the game is dying. SE just happens to have a release date ONE DAY before potentially the most anticipated game release in gaming history.
I refuse to believe that even the FFXIV community is so sheltered they don't know about the release of Cyberpunk. Many of them play via Steam, where it has been heavily advertised, where it will be heavily advertised very soon, and where it is currently the GLOBAL top seller.
