2.1 coming in Dec, ARR has 1.5+ million accounts

[Jayplex]

Yeah as much as I love doing coils now there is only so much I can do before I get bored out of my mind. Making pretty good progress on turn 5 so far so we can expect to have it done in probably 2-3 weeks max then back to bordum :P. Ah well I can just take a break then and come back when 2.1 releases.

Isn't it obvious? The trolls are looking for solid information that FFXIV is tanking. They love to cheer for its failure at any opportunity.

You don't need to see subscription data to know that FFXIV is a poorly made game.

You don't need to see subscription data to know that FFXIV is a poorly made game.

Aye.

Agreed.

[Yagrush]

That's why nobody is playing it and they gave it bad reviews again and was consider another failure.

Oh, wait.

[AjoraOak]

Oddly enough, it feels like a lot less people are playing.

[Brises]

This is going to be a cyclical thing. People will complete content two months into the quarter, let their sub expire, then when new content is added, subs will spike again. SE made it easy to do it that way by stating that progress will never be wiped when subs expire. They know some people will progress faster than others and get bored. So the important thing (to them) was to make it easy to come back whenever you want to.

You don't need to see subscription data to know that FFXIV is a poorly made game.

That's why the servers still have plenty queues and it received glowing reviews by basically every outlet that counts something, right?

You must be playing on some sort of 1.0 private server, because that's the only way someone can tell with any degree of logic that it's a "poorly made game".

[Abriael]

Hmmm... Nowhere did they actually link the official Press Release, which means I cannot (as usual) trust this websites information.

You do understand that press releases are normally sent via email, right?

No, you probably don't.

If you don't want to trust it, mind you, you're entirely free not to. The problem is on your end, not mine.

Here's another source that vouches for the 1.5 million number: http://www.siliconera.com/2013/10/25...8Siliconera%29

However no mention of the release date of 2.1, Kinda makes me think that it was just an assumption they made.

[Kyotae]

Thats my point though, its counting registered accounts and not active.. i would call this game successful so far, but you cant look at that 1.5 million number and automatically say that 1.5 million people are playing.. everyone has people in their FC that havent logged on in weeks.

You don't have proof that they aren't playing either. Plus how many more have subbed since the 1.5 mil report. So what is your point, an internal pain of hating the game and wanting to see it fail?
