Uh, well, sure. That's a fancy way of putting it, but I'm fairly sure Endwalker has retained players better than any expansion before.You have to be very confident in your game to tell players to go and try other games too in their free time and I think that confidence is misplaced.
Yoshida seems convinced that players will fill up on fast food content for a few weeks, go find another game to entertain them for the following downtime, then come rushing back excitedly when the next patch comes out. What will really happen is players will try other games, find some really good ones they can invest their time into ...and laugh at the idea of dropping their new hobby for PotD reskins, 5 minutes a day doing lopporit chores and more tome farm. It's ridiculous when you think about it, this is the content they expect will drag players back from their other games they were encouraged to try. Endwalkers initial success really went to their head.
Quitting FF14 was the best decision I made. I'm still here checking the forums for my daily entertainment, but I've been having a blast with other games and I wouldn't touch 6.35 with a ten foot pole.
