Loosing players after update?

I'm myself a veteran FFXI player so I agree with your statement, on a side note I doubt anyone would be dumb enough to attack you about what you said, for sure XIV is a different game BUT both come from the same game company, they should have re-used the good ideas coming from XI in the XIV aslong it doesn't directly interract with a different battle mechanic (which leave many good things/ideas from the XI to put there).

Keep in mind FFXIV isn't dead yet, we will be able to tell that (hopefully not) when the expansion come out, FFXI only had storyline to shadow lord for about 1 year and half before CoP and zilart came to save the day, maybe it's going to be the same for XIV.
