Finally Understanding SE's Decision Making (And Why It Won't Change)

[Heroman3003]

It's not going to change because it still brings in money, so the suits don't see a reason to change. Money is the universal language.

And if it stops bringing the money, they won't change anything but just say that the game has outlived its profitability and start shutting things down. Most higher up SE suits don't care for FF14 as a product, only as source of revenue to fund other projects, so when the well dries up they won't rush to rejuvinate it.
