I'm not an FF fanboy, this is the first FF game I've played since VII. What I'm saying is...

...this. A huge gamble, sunk a ton of money into it, a lot of devs would've stuck or just pulled the plug altogether.

This is essentially a brand new game. SWTOR is used as an example in this thread, heaven knows why because I believe it was/is a terrible game. All it's got is the story & the IP, that's it. FFXIV has a ton of stuff to do. It's going to take time for new stuff to be added, same as with any new mmo, s'all I was saying.
