Yeah, a joke that has a million subscribers. What a fail launch that was. FFXIV was so much better.

Who said anything about failed launches? lrn2read

But you know what, RIFT is a joke. If SE literally took WoW source code and slapped the final fantasy name on it perhaps they would have made RIFT instead of Trion. No wonder they had a smooth launch. Another developer did all their work for them. About the only thing that is even seemingly original is their story and even that was stolen from a pen and paper RPG that Trion didn't think anyone would recognize. Yep, awesome game.

Fail

Actually, Wynn brought up launches, which is why I mentioned Rift, so get some context before you make yourself look worse.

Rift specifically targeted WoW players who wouldn't play anything less than a game with a perfect launch. And that's exactly what they got. Apparently, a million of them are happy with it.

How many subscribers does FFXIV have now? Oh yeah, exactly zero.

The 2.0 version has the potential to be a Rift-like launch (if you pretend 1.0 was a bad dream, at least). But what we have now can never be as satisfactory. I think the price should reflect that, especially if it can convince a great deal more people to stick around.

Smooth launch and failed launch are not interchangeable terms. You do understand English right?

But you just interchanged the word "smooth" with the word "failed." I don't think the word "English" means what you think it means.

Based on your last couple posts, this hardly surprises me.

SE why do you keep letting these trolls, derail every topic and flame your player base?

No, I posted and then in an attempt to counter my point they replaced one word with another. Then they proceeded to argue their point based on fail reading comprehension or deliberate misrepresentation of what I was saying. Then when I pointed it out, they tried to backpeddle... unsuccessfully.
