This doesn't mean that the servers will be shut down anytime soon but it means that the game will go into sort of a low-effort maintenance mode just like Guild Wars 2, with scraps of content here and there and most importantly an elaborate cash shop laid out as a convenient trap for any ambitious, dopamine-pumped newcomers who might think the game is still in it's glory days.

They're probably pouring all their resources into FF9 remake or FF17 or something too
