XIV is literally in the top 2 of most popular MMOs on the market and rotates into #1 everytime a good MSQ expansion lands. How is that failing? By what metric should it "sunset" by? Lmao

These forums have a bunch of people that complain about the game but continue to give SE their money while simultaneously saying the game should shut down.

Just quit bro, stop talking, end the para social relationship with the game/ devs etc
This is a typical example of someone who I find tiring to interact with in this community, doing more harm than help to the extent that Yoshida himself is asking players to please don't quit so where these people got the idea telling players to quit would help FFXIV I do not know unless they are trolls. If your response to people who are airing their criticism and complaints is to simply dismiss them, that your response is to tell people to quit guess what is going to happen? They will quit and the player numbers reflect that reality, FFXIV is trending downwards you don't need to believe me look it up for yourself.

Finally here is YoshiP's own comment (albeit translated) asking players not to quit the game to not give up, to not retire to trust that content is coming, this is from PaxAus an evening with YoshiP.
