7.0 needs to show that it's more alive as an MMO than both Shadowbringers and Endwalker combined to actually prevent a freefall at this point. There are a lot of eyes on their next move, and if they release another flop, then have mercy on XIV because there's nothing else to really do, and not everyone's trying to sub to do Variant for 10 minutes then AFK sit in Limsa.
I personally don't play other MMOs at the moment but anytime I see talk about the content we get, it always seems way better off than other games (ex: wow with one patch in one year).

That comment about 7.0 just screams FFXIV forums. Shadowbringer and Endwalker had the biggest boom of population in the game but sure, it's gonna die. Not denying that there's problems with the game of course, but you guys blow it out of proportions all the time.
