[QUOTE=ZenAero;1816310]We all pretty much have a good idea of why FFXIV is failing and might potentially fail within a year or less. To list a few:

1. gearing up is too easy (phil, myth, etc.)
2. horrible economy
3. leveling up is too easy
4. the job/class system is a joke
5. you only need to play 2 days a week to get everything accomplished.
6. PvP wtf?
7. ...oh wait didnt I say a few? my bad I'll stop now lol

Sorry going to say, gearing 11 is easier nowadays, and leveling quite fast also.
