    You keep trying to use that number to show something it doesnt mean.

    Did you know that like, only 60% of players earn the first trophy in most games on PSN? That means that 40% of people who buy nearly every game never play it to the first trophy, which is usually within 15 minutes.

    Also, if you are so tired of this game, why do you have 3 different accounts that you are subbed on?
    How'd you know they have so many accounts? :O

    swapping gear mid-fight can die off, imo. other than huge amounts of RNG hoping to get the gear for your build, this is major reason I don't care for horizontal progression anymore.

    Spent months just for a GLAMOUR? Why bother doing it then? What's the point of playing this game?
    Pls give us a reason to do it!

    Or give us a better glamour system:
    You can not only change the appearance of a weapon, you can also add special effect to it,
    for example :Add 5% Regen potency, or shorten 0.5sec Raise cast time, or heal 3000HP when casting Esuna, by using a old relic glamour
    For fun I think.
    The glam is the end game getting old.
    Sadly we only get it more simple .

    Where is anyone getting any of their numbers at this point? SE has been real hush-hush with all of this.

    Even WOW ,has more interesting gear stats

    XIV is just using the laziest design. it's the most uninspired design I've seen in a mmo,

    Why?? Because the developers have no MMO design experience??(Yoshi mentioned it before)
    oh..

    SE isnt changing its gear progression 5 years into its life. If you want a different system you're going to have to play another game. But remember the grass is always greener on the other side. Wow isnt perfect either and those players want our system.

    In real world, if a guy doesn't try to improve himself, he picks the most safe & comfortable route, because he is lazy.
    what will happen? He will be eliminated.

    Because they used another one a few months ago, similar name same argument. They also stated they didn't post using their main accou t cuz they were afraid to get banned from the game.

    That doesn't answer my question tho, how many copies of XI were sold VS how many still play? I bet it's retention rate isn't over 95%.
