You wanna talk about sources lets go back to the official numbers: nov 2013 600k subscriptions, jan/feb 500k subscriptions. Now Yoshi continues to not release officail subscription numbers since than, now lets take into account the cash shop, even without a source adding a cash shop plus with the last officail subscriptions the game isnt doing as hot as Yoshi says it is. The so call 2.5 mil players is most likely box sales, they definitly didnt keep every player that bought the game. So technically speaking XIV has a retention rate of 25% or lower. Now before you say well I get log in Q's just remember Yoshi can set the number on that lower or higher to make it look like the servers are full even if they are not.
