What can a horde of clueless and ignorant gamers really contribute to this discussion? Not a lot, so why make this thread. It's just a avenue for SE bashing by a bunch who think they have a clue. SE has tons of experts in their fields (ie of advertising) that know the ins and outs of markets, costs, and efficiency. Yet here you are, asking the common rabble about that which they do not understand. Why Starlord, why?
I do it because I care. This Game is Dead to a lot of people, and all I want is people to give their Ideas on how to counter this mess. SE know what they are doing, so they won't use something that they know won't work.. but the people that give logical responses they can take into consideration if they wanted to.

And if SE knew what they were doing.. then FFXIV Original Launch wouldn't have been a disaster then.
