FFXIV STILL being credited for SE's Financial Success!!!!

But but where's all the masses of angry people cancelling their subs in disgust in the game that these forums highly suggest???

the few rarely state the opinion of the many.

Looking good, I spotted this article earlier. I'm glad to see things are looking up. This MMO isn't nearly as bad as all the haters say. It might not be for everyone. But which mmo is really. I'm excited to see where this game is heading in the future. When we get more and more content, jobs, areas, story, etc etc. I'm hoping for another 10 yrs of memories, friends, fun and excitement, like I experienced on FFXI(quit when 1.0 launched). Been in every sense 1.0, its great to see this turning into a success for SE. I just hope all this over working doesn't kill these miracle devs. You know they've been going nuts every sense 1.17 and so on.

Don't confuse complaints with "I hate the game I am cancelling my account."

For me at least, when I complain it's because I love the game and I want it to do even better. I think that can be said for quite a lot of people.

Either way, keep up the good work YoshiP

Ill play.Im to lazy to do the math so im just going to go by the number stated in the comments.I wouldnt consider 45m a great success.Im sure Blizzard makes that much in a weekend and even swtor made 180m just from the cash shop

Well since the majority of their players are from a Chinese demogrpahic that pay less than nothing in sub fees. And American players are too casual to care about vanity items.....I highly doubt Blizzard is bring in any more money over regular MMOs at this point.

Eh, who cares.

The game is always doing better than what the gloom and doom people think.

The game is always doing worse than what the white knights think.


FF14 is an average mmo that is a knock off of other MMO's. The population will decline, stabilize and support the game. Who the F$@# cares.

So much this. I am one of the legacy players that is currently not happy with the game, but not going to knock it for what it is, a Final fantasy themed WoW clone and if I wanted to play that style of game, I'd still have my WoW subscription going. So I'm going to be an adult, and just not renew my sub when it's due and take the game off my pc till it has something that interests me, which might be six or more months down the road. I have other games I can play and I should play, as well as a few other interesting MMOs coming up to keep my interest.

Considering the situation Square Enix was in, that doesn't really mean much, it just means they finally have a product that actually made a solid income - You know, with all the hate for FFXIII and their mobile games and all.

Their hope is that XIV pretty much keeps them afloat and fund other projects like XI did for so lon.
