Good job Mr.Happy, some quality content.
I doubt square enix measure "success" by how good it does compared to wow. If its about viewers on twitch, they most likely compare view count of when content in question is released to view count seen normally. So, for example, comparing 10000 viewers of when content is released to 500 normal ones, its a good call for developers to see if that content was successful or not.

They would've compared ffxiv to wow if it was released at the same time as wow, but its not the case, and i dont remember anyone in sqex stating that main goal of ffxiv is to beat wow. I dont really see the point in comparing something like viewer count on 2 independent games from one another. What exactly plant farming of usi guy in wow has to do with how ultimates fare in ffxiv?
