RIP PS3 support for FFXIV

[Blood-Aki]

Supporting PS3 beyond 3.0 would make sense if there was still a large portion of the FF14 playerbase on it. There are still a lot of people playing the game on PS3, just not enough to make continued support worthwhile, apparently.

That said, I'm surprised that they're killing PS3 completely. I expected that whenever PS3 gets dropped, all content up to that point would still be playable. That goes a lot further than just dropping support. That's killing the revenue from those people who, for whatever reason, have yet to get a PS4.

So, with FF14 on PS3 going bye-bye, when will we see PC dropped too?

If people are serious about this game, They will upgrade, i started this game on ps3 and i ended up quitting for half a year because i REFUSED to keep playing this game on ps3, untill i either had a PC or PS4, (among other small reasons but this, was most of it) because i could not STAND the 5 minute load times, and, back when FATES were really popular. vanishing enemies/players, etc. You ever tried Odin Fate on a ps3 with half the server fighting him? Don't even bother.

I am still on ps3 and SD TV and I most likely play more than 90% of people in here.

Time played is irrelevant as everyone pays the same sub (cept Legacy members who got it lower).

What on earth does how long you have played have anything to do with dropping ps3 support? the time spend on it does not gradually increase it's performance.
