SE, no effort anywhere lately.

Feel free to call me a white knight but I actually can't name an MMO that gets more and better content than XIV. If you can, please let me know, I enjoy trying MMOs!

FF XIV is probably still the best overall. I think that says more about the state of MMOs than this game. None of the big hype games are MMOs any more. Blizzard are still rolling with the one they launched back in 2004. Namco's Blue Protocol at least looks like it could be good but there's some concerns about Amazon bringing it to the west after the way they handled some other games.

I think there's a possibility that FF XIV starts to get more creative again now that FF XVI development is wrapping up. I don't see how losing many key staff to that game could not have affected the quality of XIV updates. And I'm finally starting to get hyped for XVI now that I've seen the gameplay slice they let the media playtest. I wasn't a fan of turning FF games into action style but this looks better than the other attempts and certainly above XV.

The success(or missing shareholder's mark) of XVI kinda worries me. SE is in search of a hit after a number of failures. If XVI is a banger then there's no way they don't task CBU III with more games or shuffle people around and I don't even want to think of what would happen if XVI follows the trend or even has a slow start like XV did.

That May-June time frame is a little bit busy too so here's hoping.
