Very true. Although people were pissed about the ME3 endings, ultimately they were stuck because they already paid for their game and that was that.

With FFXIV however, SE relies on the ongoing subscription income and won't be able to ignore the angry "minority" for too long. Even with Mass Effect they eventually found a (lame) compromise... wouldn't be surprised if SE has to (at the very least) address the issue soon.
