Im not saying that this means FFXIV will lose subscribers, Im just saying that making a blanket generalisation of all japanese people while casting aspersions on their MMO preferences is kind of presumptuous.
Again. Is Tera released on PS3?

Stretching out advertising for several months BEFORE a release is one of the silliest things you can do in marketing.
First month -> "nice! I might get that"
Second month -> "Interesting, where can I get it? Oh... it's not out yet. Meh"
Third month -> "this again?"

Gotta love how some people think that "More adz!" is a surefire way to success. If only it was that simple... Even more funny when those people go out on a limb saying "if they don't do what I say, this is dead!" like they knew anything about marketing
