We're 9 yrs out from V1 now and I'm guessing this game has about a 20 yrs lifespan of updates. Sounds like a lot but I think this game is a special case and there's the precedent of S-E still supporting FF XI right now with minor content updates 17 yrs after launch (so far) and with a planned transition of that game into a new mobile version in the future. The way S-E support FF games it might outlive me lol.
20 years? No way the game engine will be way to outdated. I give it till 7.0. On top of outdated everything the story has to end. It's a final fantasy game not a new season of One punch man, we cant just find new incredible super enemies. It becomes dull the second I realize there is no end game and no matter what there is a new "baddie" and its piss poor storytelling to boot.
