A similar MMO undergoing a "FFXIV" phase?

if SE wanted to market you niche market

This is exactly why Indie games are doing better and getting more popular to the point commercial developers are turning to them, it targets a niche market and ends up getting insanely popular to the point it does better than most commercial games in recent years.

So sorry to break it to you, but players only ruin games by asking for terrible suggestions, i.e making the game so easy and fruitless to play that people will be bored within hours, this is why Tera isn't out in NA/EU yet, because they know it will tank very hard in it's current state and it's not targeting a niche market.

Except it's only a handful of Indie games doing this, most end up failing just like big commercial titles.

I agree, the game is "hard to play" since in your own words, it's broken. So which is it? Broken or hard?

[irongripz]

So the game is apparently too hard, but broken and easy. No wonder XIV did poorly at launch.

where did i say the game was hard? niche market scrubs and a man that made a game for them is reason the game failed at launch.

The larger MMO market doesn't care about this game at all.

For now, it doesn't and it shouldn't either (it's not the market's place to care about failures at all, only successes). But the reality is, if XIV-2.0 is successful in reviving a "dead" MMORPG, it'll wash away the old stigma that once an MMORPG fails that it's the end of said game. That will undoubtedly bring competition back since as it stands right now at this very moment that anyone entering the MMORPG market is suicidal.
