$768 x 61 servers = $46848 per day total.

$46,848 / $13.99 Subscription Fee = 655403.52 players purchasing a months access every single day to fund this.

That's 19,662,105.6 active players every month.

I think that pretty easily explains why your suggestion is never going to happen.
lets do this 60 servers x 8 employees = 480 employees time 10$ an hour = 4,800$ times 8 hours a day = 38,400 times 365 days =14,016,000 (yearly) or 1,152,000 monthly

Take in Se player base of 750,000 times a base of 13.99 = 10,492,500 per month or 125,910,000 (yearly) subtract the two numbers equals 111,894,000 net.

Other factors to fund this SE makes other games that sell FF15 , Kingdom Hearts , FFXI (over 20mil a year still I would guess) Were talking company profit loss margin here it can be done
