I'm not sure what changed that made people suddenly afraid of investing in some variety. Variety is good. SE doesn't need you defending their choices, especially not financial-related stuff.
Games would be so much better if there was less justifying done by playerbases. -_-
I'm not defending anything. I'm providing a realist's opinion on what we've been given. I'm not going to pretend that Square-Enix is some altruistic corporation out to provide us our every whim on a silver platter, as some people seem to expect from them. They want to make huge piles of money while providing an engaging, entertaining experience so we will continue to furnish them with huge piles of money.Â
I find FFXIV - and by extension, the Au Ra - to be an engaging, entertaining experience. So I will continue to furnish them with huge piles of money.
