You would think that after the titanic failure of all the recent MMO's FFXIV (at launch) and SWTOR Online and so on.. that companies would stop churning out these huge big budget MMO's that only a small audience wants to play. And end up eating huge losses. OK.. thats not entirely true because the people who do want to play one, play WoW. And even the interest for that is getting smaller and smaller. |
the reason is, if it's successful it makes them a boatload. It is definetly higher risk/reward though.
FFXI despite being a lot smaller than WoW, is SE's most profitable FF of all time.
