Let us continue on to the last part of the player suggestion on what he thinks should do to Astrologian so that it can be legit in Final Fantasy XIV as a standalone healer. Now, you cannot pick being an Astrologian because White Mage and Scholar are too good. Therefore, Astrologian is the least to be desired in groups and raids as a healer, even as a secondary healer. Wanting to main Astrologian is nearly impossible, really. It’s almost we have to buy our way into a raid team just to be able to Astrologian in a raid. Make the Astrologian Great…

Last time we tackled on some of the factors (outside of sales graphics and gameplay) that greatly affects the success of an MMORPG.

Before messing with final fantasy 14, let’s talk about a baseless rumor where square enix got the title ‘final fantasy.’ Square enix is just a ‘so-so,’ company in the past.

However, an unforeseen event happened, someone decided, a game shall be released. If the game succeed (become popular), the company yields to continue. If the game fails, the company dies. The creative team of the company thought many catchy titles, still, none of them fit…
