Based on NA FanFest 2026, Do You Think Friends/Players Will Return to FFXIV?
I know people will say "Shadowbringers will bring people back" but I just don't see this happening.
I dunno how I feel about this FanFest. I wanted one thing from the developers and that was to refresh the game in a way that brings people back.
The new "C" Character screen is differently different, but does that give players an incentive to pay a monthly subscription? Can that bring people back?
I don't want to sound negative, but I just didn't feel like they cared about bringing players back. Maybe a level crunch? Maybe skipping Dawntrail? Maybe... anything?
I'm legitimately interested in what people think. A lot of our friends and comrades are gone. Do you think the new job actions are going to bring the players back?
