The way I see it, leaving would just make the devs vindicated in their approach. If you are dissatisfied with the game and you leave, the people dissatisfied with your game are not a problem anymore, why would you work to please them anyway? They are no longer part of the playerbase. Considering how big FFXIV is and how easy it is to replace the players, I think quitting would do more harm than good. On the other hand I do understand the concept of "voting with your wallet." This isn't a free game after all.
