FF14 fad didn't last long

That does not fit these trolls narrative though!

They donā€™t. All these MMO population websites try and use bots to scrape socials to ā€œguesstimateā€ MMO populations.

WoW revenue in 2020 was $8billion, 2019 was $6.4 billion, 2018 was $7.5 billion. So you can say the population rose in 2018, dropped in 2019, and rose again in 2020. Q1 2021 was 23% higher than the previous year so itā€™s possible WoW does another 8-10 billion this year.

FF14 is a little ant in comparison $$$-wise compared to WoW. Itā€™s why so much is invested into WoWs development.

I no long play wow. Iā€™ve thoroughly enjoyed FF for a few weeks now and keep falling in love with it. Itā€™s like replacing a fat abusive wife with a new hot younger gf that does everything I want.

Now my feeling on Blizzard are complicated. In many ways I want and think they should fail. In your order to win it all sometimes we must lose it all and Blizzard been top of the food chain for far to long. Theyā€™ve lost their way and the crap the release now shows it. Other mmos are gaining more traction and I agree Blizzard has some soul searching to do as this game is terrible right now.

So basically what you are saying both the WoW forums and the FFXIV forums are completely irrelevant and have no standing on the state of the game or the community that makes up the game.

Just ignore him.
Level 10 forum trolls are not to be taken seriously.

He just turned from defending the game to prompting players delete accounts.
He clearly has no stance and just wants attention.

There were no FFXIV fans doing that. It was disgruntled WoW players.

I am just calling out hypocrisy. I just saying that you are supporting a game just to bash a game.

To be fairā€¦ final fantasy is also in an expansion lull. Literally no new content until November.

WoW still has a long way to go with shadowlands unless they give up. 9.1 has only been out a month.

That being saidā€¦. other MMOs tend to be short fused fads.

Iā€™m trying the free trial now and itā€™s ok.
But I think I like WoW better game play wise. If only they didnā€™t have the broken systems

Forums are a very small percentage of playerbase, but Iā€™m sure nobody has to tell you that. Maybe you are getting the idea!

I still have a que when logging in. And still see players everywhere. And I donā€™t plan on going anywhere.

:thinking:

So explain to me the logic of supporting a game just to bash a game.

I donā€™t really care what you would do. I donā€™t recall asking anyone either. My choices are mine alone.

As far as FF community goes it seems rather nice. A lot of helpful people. I know I can be toxic but I also can be kind. Itā€™s funny how when you take a person out of a toxic relationship and out them in a better environment they instantly start to change their ways. Itā€™s fun actually working in FF for common goals and helping each other out. Itā€™s how an mmo should be played. Wow breeds selfing, egotistical players that are only in it for themselves.

So what is the point of this argument to being with why is anyone post here if none of this matters?

Get a class you enjoy to max level and I promise you will think differently on game play.

Heck, every content creator has agreed with that. It gets way better.

But you got the anti 14 people here, ā€œit needs to be good from the startā€ cause WoW is sooooo good at the start to and leveling is SO much funā€¦ eye roll WoW, to, doesnt pick up till max.

Does making ignorant claims help to make you feel better about playing a scuffed game?

You tell me, you are the one who come in here being toxic af. Havent seen a single person back you up. OP was obvious a one post troll. Just like most of GD has been last few days.

It still feels like slower combat mechanics.

You can kite mobs less in final fantasy.
Less movement, etc.

Unless you are saying that changes too.
