Somewhat i find that hard to believe.
You DO NOT KNOW if that is going to happen. That is what I am trying to tell you and the others that think like you. You are just guessing. You are trying to present your opinion as a fact. I do not see any MMORPG that will be released in 2011 that can have a really big impact on the playerbase of FFXIV.

The whole the clock is ticking thing is as valid as me saying FFXIV will beat WoW when the PS3 version is released, because Square Enix is cool and WoW has no moogles.

Most people that would leave FFXIV already left. The few left understand what SE has to do and are waiting for Yoshi to fix the game. The problem is not SE or FFXIV. The problem is a small part of the current player base that do not understand that developing a game and changing the very basics of the game play take some time ...

They are not going to add or remove a small thing. They are talking about redoing whole maps, fixing the battle mechanics and redoing whole class balancing. That is not doable in a week, a month or even a few months ... it takes time. Give it time ...

A few weeks ago everyone was so damn happy about RIFT. RIFT was so cool, so new, so polished ... and so boring because it is a WoW copy. It only took them a few days to come back and troll the FFXIV forums instead of playing their beloved RIFT.

The coming MMOs will do as much damage as RIFT did to FFXIV, which is almost none ...
