    Yeah, I dunno where this idea of "THE CASH SHOP PAYED FOR THE SERVERS" came from.

    FFXIV needed 500K players to keep the servers up and pay for developing new content as per Yoshi. Anything passed that was a bonus. Since FFXIV is very successful, they would have had cash for those servers regardless. Where is this cash shop money going? Probably to SE's shareholders. Gotta pay them dividends.
