Stormblood raises the number of players over 10 million in Final Fantasy XIV
The latest expansion Stormblood has raised Final Fantasy XIV in the number of players over the limit of 10 million. Critics love Stormblood. The subscription numbers are growing. But there is a catch.
According to a press release, Final Fantasy XIV has now more than 10 million players worldwide on PS4 and PC. Especially the expansion Stormblood helped to enlarge the user base world-wide. But mainly the success of Final Fantasy XIV is based on the fact that the title is so robust and stable, so eagerly fed with new content.
The number is not quite so impressive when one reads the small print: For in these 10 million are also included the "free trials", thus the free sample accounts. In addition, the 10 million are the "cumulative number of players", the number of all who have ever created an account with Final Fantasy XIV.
The 10 million players are not the number of players who really play and pay for it. Nothing impressive.
With the tricks, how MMOs their number of players to hairdressing, we are here: MMOs players: Asked, geschönt, geheiegen
We have even more impressive figures on Stormblood.

The expansion Morrowind of ESO brought it to 78% (PC)

World of Warcraft: Legion with 88% cuts by a point better than the PC version of Stormblood.
Even the last FF14 expansion Heavensward was highly rated by the critics: 86% got them then.
