    The assumptions:

    1) Square Enix provides minimal resources to the MMORPG division of the Digital Entertainment group
    2) All other areas of the Digital Entertainment group are losing money, despite providing 3/4 of actual net sales.
    3) FFXIV is still the goose that lays the golden egg for the company.

    These are guesses, based on, what? The poster ("I asked a coworker to evaluate ...") does not appear to possess any in-depth knowledge about the corporate infrastructure and inner working of Square Enix.

    I'm seriously hoping that Yoshi-P is doing okay and not suffering from back pain. Y'know, since he's basically carrying Square Enix at this point.

    At least use the tag "satire" when writing this drivel.

    Hopefully they start to take notice where they should be spreading some of their budget to before its too late.

    If Sony does buy up SE hopefully they wont get too greedy with releases. SE has just started to do well with regular PC releases, and while Sony is starting to bend the for its exclusives, its still several years later from the initial console launch...
