more content is not going to save this game. the real players did not even play past rank 20 so they did not even care to see all of the game's current content as it is. your "more content" logic is flawed. remolding poop by throwing additional poop on top of it is still poop.

these were the number of subscribers as of 2010. it shows ffxi is less than 3% of the member base of world of warcraft which is exactly what i stated. reading comprehension is your friend. now if you want a bigger percentage of the mmo pie my statement was not follow the trends of a game that has 3% of the biggest mmo. that just means that to follow xi is to make another low market mmo and that is not good business practice. they said they wanted to compete with wow not be slaughtered again.

just so you know most quit pre-20? most that i know on karnak quit at high levels because they had nothing worthwhile to do. those that i know that quit pre-20 quit because the 8 leves every 36 hrs are just repetitive processes that are one after another.
