The fact that there is this much talk about another mmo is a good thing.
Blizzard has been coasting creating mediocre xpacs and getting away with it.
Systemlands is not good.

Honestly, this. Competition is healthy, the reason WoW has been going downhill for so long is because the devs have had no competition to whip them into shape

well this patch brought some back but i think we all know it sure didnât bring everyone back that was playing and quit. i guess some people donât understand all the frustration people have over wow. sure some are happy and think everythingâs perfect but thereâs alot more that just canât stand wow as it sits right now and 9.1 brought nothing exciting lil area korthia and a dungeon thatâs basically worthless along with new grind it out systems sure itâs the best mmo lol. if they wasnât obsessed with systems they would of brought real tier not grind it out garbage. and a story that everyone spazzed out on i got a good laugh over that.
This kind of sounds like cope when multiple outlets claim ff14 is number 1.
but i can play a gunblade! iâm a disciple of squall
To this question Sub runs out in Sept cuz it already ticked through however each game is different and better its own thing however there are different in both Jesse Cox did a good review of both honestly and his video is good. Now will FFXIV kill WoW âŠno never nothing can kill WoW except WoWâŠthis has shown over time. No game has took the title of best MMO from WoW till WoW took it from itself as now 14 has by most analytics a larger player base.
Graphics, Gameplay and story though FFXIV starts out rough in this WoW is better early lvls than FFXIV (except graphics) however once FFXIV hits around 40 the gameplay and story is FARâŠFAR BETTER than WoWâŠand FFXIV donât have to constantly RETCON their story to make the new expansions story fit, FFXIV has had a overarching theme and finally tied all the loose ends of the story up after 3 expansions with 0 retcons. WoW has retconned its story every expansion lately.

Honestly, if you consider that FF14 has players on multiple platforms it probably has been competitive with total subs for a long time.
I love FF14 raids, no trash.

FF is stupid I agree, but itâll take over WoW because it caters to casual players and role players more. I think the biggest part of the MMO population is casuals and Iâve seen a bigger decline in WoW as itâs gone more and more towards catering to the top small % of players. I have fun running keystone hero keys and mythic raiding but apparently most people donât do that so the game suffers.

Nah. I donât give a dang who is or isnât top. I just play what I find enjoyable/what my friends play. My personal favourite mmo is GW2 and itâs absolutely not close to being the top mmo. Wildstar was actually my favourite before it shut down and it never had a chance.
The simple matter of fact is that none of the companies release their subscriber counts; thusly, any statistics we have are gathered by third parties, which makes them much less reliable than if we were able to get them from the source.
Also, most news outlets arenât particularly reliable even when they do have proper statistics. Theyâre usually just after clicks so that more people will see ads so that they make more money. âWoW no longer #1 mmo!!!â is good clickbait. lol

Dude you wrote a whole essay and you are going to give me a straight face and say you donât care. Also until blizzard release the numbers sources say ff14 is more popular until blizz proves otherwise wow is number 2.
FF14 doesnât publicly release its subscriber count either.
Iâm just trying to explain to you how we donât have reliable statistics in favour of either game. When it comes to which game is more popular, I couldnât care less. You came at me saying I was trying to cope when Iâm just trying to tell people to take news with a grain of salt given the lack of concrete stats.
But believe what you want. lol

The people denying FF14 is doing better than WoW or is gaining remind me of Trumpers denying they were losing and then lost the election honestly. Its that same mindset that it could never happen and if it did it is lies or skewed data.

Anybody denying that FF14 is gaining is an idiot or in denial. Likewise, anybody that 100% trusts the data from third parties is probably dimwitted or doesnât know better. lol
