FF14 player count reached the lowest point in 4 years. We lost 75% of the playerbase.

Look on the bright side. 75% player loss might mean the housing situation might open up to people that want it, right? Right?

Doubt it. There always seems to be another IRL disaster to keep auto-demo turned off.

Transfer to world I'm on and you will be able to buy a house with no problems. Thats if you don't mind long queue times.

Transfer to any Dynamis world aside from Kraken or Seraph and you'll have same issue, I'm on Halicarnassus right now and it's DEAD. Trying to sell anything i need to severely undercut the lowest price otherwise it sits for 6 - 24 hours or more. I'm not selling stuff that only sells once a week either, This is ore, ingots, whetstones, cotton, fleece, crystals, ETC

I also have Max retainers possible (Cash shop) and all of them are sitting at 20/20 20/20 20/20 (ETC) and only sell at 2 PM - 7 PM if it doesn't sell during that time i know i'll have zero sales till tomorrow.

Dynamis needs to be fused if this is the continued player number or enable Cross DC Marketboard usage, You shouldn't need to hop worlds if you can talk to people on Seraph from Hali using Yell or Shout.

People saying "Just transfer" are part of the problem too, Why should I pay extra to move my character? This is an SE problem that needs to be addressed. Dynamis failed, Fuse and move on.

I don't need exact numbers. People on my friend list do not log in anymore. That sucks.

[XtremePrime]

FCs feel it, but most importantly even Field Ops are feeling it.
There's barely any players in Eureka, bar maybe 5-10 at one time if you're lucky [Chaos EU].
Even Occult Crescent feels more empty than usual, the past few weeks I've seen players all over the phantom village just idling and full instances, now instances are barely half full and the phantom village is literally its name, phantom

[SophiaDL]

Guys its okay the game is booming with players aether is congested !!! it's so full its at capacity they had to stop people from travelling there !!!

/s

Yeah, this is the sad reality of it. 85% of my friend list haven't been on in months. Our FC has maybe 8 people logging in somewhat regularly? It used to be over 20. I know of multiple people who are letting their subs lapse soon, too.

Monthly steam charts are not looking pretty. It's only a matter of time until we're back to 2017 numbers.

It doesn't help that the patches are longer now. What are people going to do in July? Following Stormblood's timeline, we should be in 7.35.

That far behind, huh? And its not like they are delivering more content. Eureka is the largest field op in the game (and feild ops are likely the biggest development effort of expansions) and had 4 zones. OC will only have 2. I still don't understand the justification of the longer patches.
