FFXIV is super overrated. They bragged about hitting 10 mil registered accounts and something like 1 mil active subs. Meanwhile WoW’s registered accounts were closer to 100m and their peak subs were closer to 12 mil. That’s not to say current WoW isn’t bad, just that FFXIV is pretty overrated.
But hey, the grass is always greener and all that. I assure you it’s just a different shade of green.
