Discuss : is ffxiv in trouble

Why do y’all think so black and white

All I said is they could have tried to add some things rather than the same tired cadence of content that has been unbelievably slow since ShB and you immediately assume I’m saying “rewrite the entire expansion and make it so normal 14 players hate it”

Was an extra extreme trial and maybe a second deep dungeon as emergency additions to 6.1 too much to ask for

Sure 14 plans far in advance but if a competitor dumps an extra 40% of your current playerbase into your lap and you don’t try to do “something” because you have a design schedule then something has gone terribly wrong

You come to realize most of the people in XIV and the extended FF fandom lack the ability to see nuance and lack critical thinking as a whole. To see the grey/gray reality of things would require them to see the natural flaws of XIV and understand why other MMO are equally as successful as XIV and to then come to the conclusion that Yoshida didn't want XIV to be The top MMO, and that he was fine with second or third place.

Also they have very little to no comprehension about how games work, or they like to play dumb. If Yoshida and Se were smart they would have catered to having more midcore replayable content that scales up for players, Yoshida was also say this in tandem with the whole you don't have to play all the time nonsense, which is, not all content is for you, something a lot of XIV players need to hear as well.

And for the slow and low amount of content, yeah I don't know why this is the only game on the market with such aggressive fomo and such a short turnover for current content.

All and All, history like with so man other MMOs, repeats itself, and no ones gonna notice all the things that are truly going wrong until the game is literally on fire and imploding, and then they'll all be scuttling to try and fix it.

And for all of you who still sadly lack reading comprehension, the former statement is not me implying that the game is gonna go boom in the near future.
