Third-party Tools Can Negatively Affect Players Not Using Them

[Ivtrix]

Fun fact time, in Q1 of 2023, FFXIV Subs accounted for more revenue for Square Enix than their other titles, making a total of 27.3 Billion Yen in just the first quarter of the fiscal year.

Sadly they don't have any data on just the optional items, however the slide does state that it is only counting paying subscriber numbers:
Source (First time doing a Hyperlink in BBC in years, hopefully, this works)

Personally, I am curious as to the amount of revenue generated by optional items.

Yeah I double checked their latest earnings report but it’s filled with a lot of business buzzword crap and I couldnt find a breakdown of cash shop income.

But if it follows the trend of similar titles (there’s no reason to think it does t) and the difference is substantial between subs and cash shop

I work with the "business buzzwords" in my IRL job, so it was easy for me to read, but sadly, the break down is only showing subscriptions and not any optional items. The report is focused on games, rather then DLC.

Karens with 2k posts on the forums saying they will definitely quit for sursies if their cheats are removed!
Don't forget. You're here forever!
And I never said I'm anti-mods, I've never been directly affected by them, I'm just anti hypocrites, "Remove all mods... except for my mods..." is peak derangement, it's either all removed or nothing changes.

Since you call me a karen, care to show and quote where I said I was quitting if they were gone ?

I don't doubt you can wait on the forum all day
either way nothing of value will be lost of mods are removed and nothing will be gained if they stay

Looks like you are the Karen at this point, yet you called me one, the irony.

Do you want to talk to the GM's about the big bad evil players that look better than you do ? Do you want to see the manager ?
