What shareholders? SE owns it, just like originally with WoW and Blizzard.

FFXIV is not in the same boat as 95% of all the other MMO out there that actually have to listen to shareholder *demands* and implement them regardless of what the main company says.

If SE really wants to do it, they will. Just like they did with XI... Though, I really don't see it happening at this point, especially with 3.0 so close. The game is still far too popular.

Many of the problems where it seems like worlds are less active (imo) are due to most people not working on low content anymore and strictly farming for things like light. People are still in the game, just doing different content.
