They need to hire a consultant, because they are doing everything in the most resource-intensive way possible. You can't do that and then cry "but server capacity!"... especially when your decade-old mmo somehow managed to accommodate all the players on hamster equipment.

You forgot to mention the limitations of the PS3 and continual support of that platform.

Isn't XI still supported on the PS2? Housing and all?

Even back in FFXI days, I've always thought a lot of SE's problems stemmed from the fact they were a console game company trying to make PC games.
