I think ARR will succeed.

100K really ? Come on guys the game shipped 650K and flopped, Swotor needs a 500K sub to pay itself overtime, SE needs to pay for XIV and XIVARR, patches, expansions etc etc, we all seem to forget that if SE was so loaded with money, they would not literaly ask for our money to keep XIV afloat. If it does not swim this time around with good numbers is gonna sink, if they for example start off with a good 300k then there is hope, given that the game is actually good etc etc word of mouth will spread and they can pick up a few 100k here and there.

But 100K ? Yeah that will pretty much be the end.
