    I knew this would happen. SE are not going to let one of their titles ruin the franchise this bad if they have the opportunity to improve it. Unless there were like 10 people playing. Combined XI and XIV im sure their is enough to sustain production on both eventually.

    Take APB for example a GTAMMO game, everyone thought it'd be awesome and insane but it was shutdown after like 72 days even though it had more content and better reviews/scores than XIV and is completely different type of game (im sure everyones played GTA at some point) it still got the closure. (Ignore that its being brung back XD)

    As bad as XIV launch was it'll carry on.

    APB shut down primarily because it was very very very very horribly financially mismanaged, they were so in debt they had no chance of saving the game. :/

    Edit: Well i mean they also released a crappy game but if you have enough of a cash buffer you can pull game out of the hole, kinda like what we're trying to do right now with xiv.
