How many people play FFXIV?

[ChiefCurrahee]

you'll probably hear tons of complaining on how people like you are ruining all mmo's not just this one. no matter what mmo im on i'll always be saying the same things cause as you can see companies like turning all there mmo's into the same copy paste and i think we all have the right to show our concerns.

wait.... you're complaining of MMOs being copy paste, yet you're singing the praises of starwars, which is a blatant rip off of warcraft. Dude take off your blinders and realize what you're so excited for is basically a reskin of a game that came out almost a decade ago.

how many mmo's have you played after it's been out for over a year and half there zones are empty? probably none ..least none that you stayed with.

um...
Lord of the rings
Age of Conan
War Hammer
Aion
Rift

fact the reason they building these mmo's way to easy is for that reason most likely, and why they let people powerlevel and so forth ..push you to where the .. check this out ... "population" is. i was just using swtor as a example of how a mmo should look like for the first few years at the very least. i could of used ffxi, it was packed. the dunes ..i loved the dunes ..party on every piece of sand in the zone, every zone after that the same. people all running from npc to npc's doing quests and missions. all things swtor had and ffxiv has not had since first month.

also maybe you should quit with the insults since it's obvious you have no real constructive criticism outside you being some wannabe white knight that thinks i can't have my own opinions on the matter. Your future is dim, enjoy what you get.

You should hop off that hype wagon you're riding. I'm not saying FFXIV is the best MMO. I'm saying that this community will be better off with out people who nay say the future of FFXIV. Newsflash for ya, FFXIV doesn't need a million subs to be successful. Nope. I'm sure SE will be operating the game at a loss for the majority of it's lifetime. But if they can launch a solid PS3 version and keep true to their vision of 2.0 this game will be just fine with it's own niche crowd. You don't need 11 million other people to tell you: "yes this is the game to play". Guess what I disagree with the 11 million people who are hooked on WoW, it's a POS game.

SWTOR is just like wow. how do i know? I PLAYED THE BETA!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you wanna discuss starwars go do it on their forums, keep that garbage out of here.
