Time to Quit

[Lauront]

If that 1.3m figure is from the LB surveys, they measure as little as a single login, for a character, meeting its criteria within the survey period, which is acknowledged to be susceptible to bloat by free login campaigns. It's more that it's a high point/maximum during the survey period as opposed to anything that could be used as an active daily figure, which I'd strongly doubt is anything like 1.3m. There's some other sites (not talking about ones which actually record live player metrics) that claim to estimate the numbers for it but I doubt it's based on anything reliable.

I'd say the fact that - as another poster so kindly pointed out - at least 20000 players are using a specific lewd mod counts as a 'significant number' when there is content designed to appeal to a far lesser number of players.

I think it'd be quite the interesting experiment for Square Enix to ban mods altogether as of 7.0 and prevent them from being launched, if only to see how many players actually stick around to continue playing the game as intended.

Yeah I'd be interested to see how that'd go as well, including in terms of their accounts...
