Make FFXIV more like FFXI and less like WoW

[Besbeset]

Not a chance, SE learned from COP's abject failure, content that only around 15% of the players have completed over two years after release (SE's own figures at the time) is clearly a fail, they won't repeat that mistake.

So a game's success is based on the % of people that finish the game and/or the story line? What about having fun by just playing it? Isn't that the main objective of a game?
Oh wait, I forgot that we are on the era of "please make games easier so 12 year old ppl can finish it, and then we can all complain about the lack of content on the forums".
