I also bet that FFXIV introduces an automatic dungeon finder. Players congregate in town while they are put in a queue for the dungeon, and eventually the game becomes an entrance lobby rather than an MMO.

I predict that Ishgard does not open directly after the battle patch as promised. I predict it opens in the final quarter of 2012.

I predict we don't get a new UI that was promised for february 2012 until february 2013.
