    Yup you called it. Struggling to stop the servers from having Ques on a daily basis, Struggling to allow character creation on most servers because they are over capacity or did you mean struggling to find players, then no not even close.

    I switched to one of the new servers and even there I have ques all troughout the day. Dungeon ques as DD are great too. You never wait longer than 5 minutes during prime time.

    I don't think I have ever seen any game struggling to get members less than this one. It seems that every time they come out with a new expansion they have to increase the number of servers, and every one of those servers is packed. North America just added another data center to help with the load. Final Fantasy XIV now has 24 servers in North America, 32 servers in Japan, and 12 in Europe. I can safely say that this game is not struggling to get members. All you have to do to find out why the game is doing so well is download the trial version and give it a go.

    Not struggling but definitely pandering. I mean all you have to do is look at the Viera which walk out of character creation in thong lingerie. Oh but wait, take out an emote because it could be used for in game naughtiness. *eyeroll*

    You do realize that the Veira race has been a thing in Final Fantasy lore since before Final Fantasy XIV right? They were first introduced in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance which launched in both Japan and the US in 2003. I would recommend you research the race and the lore of Final Fantasy before throwing assumptions around. The reason it was introduced in XIV is because it was a highly requested race since Heavensward.

    That being said, you also do realize that Square Enix is a Japanese company and the dev-team for Final Fantasy XIV are located in Japan right? Japanese culture is a lot different than western culture.

    I know what a lot of people might thing, but FFXIV is not a bad game to be honest, and while the panty shot can come across as them seeming desperate, it really is just fan service, it's an eastern style game, and that is a very typical anime kind of scene.

    For those that don't play it, don't read too much into it. For those that do, I hope you all enjoy the festival.

    So many people missed the bulge shot, I wonder why.

    Interestingly enough, the Vieras in-game are a very sober and aristocratic race, nothing like what's depicted in that art shot. From the emotes to the clothing, if you aim for naughty, your goto is still Mi'qote.

    Lots of new and old players in the game. Game is doing well. Large diverse playerbase. You sometimes get kicked out because the server gets over loaded.

    This isn't a signature, you just think it is.

    Never said Viera were 'introduced' in 14 but I am sure everyone here appreciated the history lesson. So here is a lesson for you. Pandering means to indulge, gratify, satisfy, or cater to. Now in terms more specifically referencing items like anime, manga, or more recently gaming the term often used is fan service. Which many in this thread have also pointed out. So I would recommend you do some research into the meanings of words before you decide to so poorly troll a member of this community.

    While that may be true.. the Panty Shot offered more sex appeal than the Bulge Shot.. which is why everyone noticed it.

    It would also be kind of awkward to have a boner next to the two potatoes.

    Yah, I can see the artist discussion now.. "So you want a massive beast-man thing with a raging hard-on near two childish looking sprites?.. Yah that's not gonna happen.. how about I just put in a token panty shot and call it a day?"

    That's not a panty shot... It's gratuitous, but it is not a panty shot.

    Many, many girls in Japan wear extremely short skirts. Just walk around in a busy area in Tokyo for a day and you’ll be surprised/shocked.

    It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.

    It is just huge resource waste....'
