I've not played FFXIV, but it's pretty fascinating watching WoW being dethroned. It goes to show what a developer like Square Enix can accomplish when they listen to criticism and learn from their mistakes.
I've always said the only thing that'll kill wow is wow itself.
No king rules forever, but I sure as hell don't want it to be FFXIV.
The community is being ruined by the newcomers acting like Californian moving to Texas. They're demanding the game be more like what they just left, and they're acting like they do there.
14 has always had a more tight knit community that's more polite and tolerant to its own fault(you legit can't remove a trash player from your group even if they're holding back hard raid boss kills out of fear of getting reported for harassment).
Hell, this is the game where players wil report you for suggesting they use certain spells....
WoW players are just making it worse. I'm afraid of what's happening on the JP servers. Their culture clashes with the west to begin with.
