What is wow
What is wow
Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.
They tend to pick their collabs based mostly on JP popularity and WoW is practically non-existent in Japan.
I'm still praying they bother making a PSO2 collab at some point.
most likely do the same with what they did with MH event gear
MH design philosophy but made in Eorzea
I've noticed Hearthstone is actually played by quite a few JP folks on nicovideo, but they don't actually have Japanese servers for WoW, so if anything there's likely just some JP communities on the Korean/Chinese servers.
Interesting. Just checked trends and XIV is leaps and bounds over WoW, PSO2 has more search traffic on google than WoW over the last 12 months. Not disagreeing, just curious of the timeline. I did search for the games in general as a "videogame" so maybe its a filtering discrepancy?
Ah, I used 2004-present as date range as I originally was looking at WoW's trend in Japan.Interesting.

In the past 12 months, FFXIV is doing better than WoW, but I wouldn't say it's "leaps and bounds" better. They're definitely in the same ballpark in terms of interest on Google.
This is for the past 3.5 years or so (as Google claimed to have changed their data collection system at the beginning of 2016):

Keep in mind the spike near the end was BFA launching since it came out August 14th 2018 while XIV was currently in 4.3 during that time with 4.4 coming out in early Sept. I don't know the exact month spread looking at the graph but it does seem like BFA gained more interest over 4.4 but that's a whole expac compared to a single patch.Ah, I used 2004-present as date range as I originally was looking at WoW's trend in Japan.
