umm, weather be 1million subs or 500subs, mmo's like this don't last. and don't try to look at wow as an example that is a situation in all it's own. all other mmo's are dying out quick with this type of mmo gameplay. leaving only the hardcore dedicated to that game playing.

weather they want to or not mmo's should all be a niche in some form or another. this hole, everyone can play the same mmo together bs is nonsense. theres game play you like and things you don't like. people don't have eye googles on ...it's that they like that type of play. it's like making a tv show that's for sci fi geeks and soap opra lovers ...ummm it don't work, why would i sit threw all the bs to get to the little bit of sci fi stuff in it. i wouldn't ..in a week of watching i'd realize it's a joke and stop. that is what all these mmo's are doing to this type of players, pushing them out in a few months. ....but in the end it's not like the other group stays, why? cause the other side are like locusts. you know it and i know it, this type of mmo can't keep anyone even the most casual playing for that long. so they move onto the next mmo.

either way in the end what will happen to our mmo's if they see the trend is buy play toss ...just like our offline games?

but any who, i'm sure we are all open minded, it's just that innovation to some is a step backwards to others. i don't need them to repackage what i already had, nor do i need them to take away everything we already had in mmo's then give us a smidge of it at a time and say this is for you. no thanks.

oh p.s. i loved every ff title... even X and X2. and i been playing ff titles since the first one came out and when it came out as a little kid. i don't complain less there is something really annoying happening like in ffxiv.
