You know, I'd like you to talk individually to each and every FFXIV subscriber who started on PS3, or on a PC with less than stellar capabilities and ask them whether or not scaling back the game's hardware requirements was a good idea. The PS3 work allowed them (SE's devs) to make a game that could play on a far, far wider range of PCs than would ever have been the case otherwise. Far from being a disaster, the PS3 support encouraged their developers to be frugal with their use of hardware in the game client. Another way to say this would be to say efficient. I'd rather have that than a bloated monstrosity that runs great on a 2016 mid range gaming rig, but runs like crap on consumer PCs and not at all on consoles.
