DQ is bigger than FF in Japan, but FF MMOs have a much more solid following than DQ MMOs. FF11 was able to keep a fanbase for years, and FF14 is extremely successful.

Let's be fair though, the DQ MMO came out on the Wii at the end of its life, and then the Wii U. I'm not saying FF MMOs wouldn't still be stronger, but to date it hasn't exactly been a fair fight!

I don't disagree. There plenty of reasons why DQX did as it did. 

Did you and spurge read what I was responding to? He was using DQX to justify his point of view that FF14 isn't going to do well on PS4. I just said the FF MMOs have a stronger following. That's all.

Unlike DQX, FF14 will have a free upgrade from old console to new console. So, I imagine physical sales will be pretty low.

Well, yeah, but it had a upgrade program that offered the game at the half of the price, so some could argue that this happended there too.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
