And since they don't want to give us a real answer on what the problem is, anyone guess is as good as the next.
The PS4 actually runs XIV quite well, it could probably handle what would be required of it. What's holding XIV back now is the server hardware and such...and probably a lack of funding to do anything major with it or anything else. What we need is an upgrade from the ground up, and that would no doubt take a lot of time and money...something I'm not sure SE wants to do.
