It'll be how it'll be. FFXIV 1.0 was successful for those enjoying it. SE just wanted more subs and thought to gain by adhering to a modern MMO model overall. I can't blame them, I didn't play 1.0 more than a month. I've played 2.0 for 3 plus months now including alpha/beta testing.

It wont be successful as you say if players keep leaving. Dont fool yourself players are leaving and they will continue to do so as long as this game remains stagnant. If there is nothing dynamic about the open world than it is stagnant and we all know that once you explore everyting once you cap your jobs on fates that the open world has no use. Dungeons are stagnant as well not to mention they are boring, they are always the same never change there is nothing dynamic about them either. Basicly 2.0 is a cash grab nothing more nothing less, the world should feel alive but it dosent and thats the truth, dont be blinded and open your eyes to the truth.
