Latest Lodestone Census -- 3.4 MSQ, The Creator (Savage) clear rates

3.4 MSQ completion:

Quick notes:
1. Based on lodestone parsing for the Moenbryda minion.
2. ~190k 3.4 cleared players. JP servers lead again with 90k. NA and EU combine for around the same.
3. Roughly a 35% drop off from 3.3's MSQ clear count and a 50% overall drop off from 3.0's clear count. As per usual, this number is currently rather low and will rebound with a bit more time just like 3.3's numbers did with this census.

As always, NA clear %s lag behind JP servers and shows a clear difference in how we consume content.

And finally,

Alexander the Creator (Savage) clear rates:

Quick notes:
1. Based on the possession of the A12S mount so numbers will generally be lower than reality.
2. JP servers still demolish NA servers with their top raiding server almost having more clears than all NA and EU servers combined.
3. Clear %s 2 months after patch 3.4 have already surpassed Midas clear rates from 5 months after patch 3.2 for most servers (Midas clear rates snap shotted on 8/11 http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/luckybanc...c/ac6dbb99.png).

Well... thats what you mostly see when looking at a JRPG grinder...
Japan players like that heavy grinding!
It will share the same fate: players will play for about a year and the switch game.
At least, thats what i see with many JRPGames.

FFXIV is more of a western style MMO... there really isn't much of a JMMORPG gaming genre.

It also isn't particularly grindy -- especially for raiders who are clearing A12S.
