Hopefully Method taking an interest in FFXIV will also reach Tokyo and influence future raid design and what direction PvE could take in FFXIV. The game has a lot of potential but ShB has imo been a step back compared to SB even in terms of PvE design.
Method doesn't do anything for the Lulz as they are now a (profit driven) company and it is very unlikely they decided to start this event without sponsorship.
