Except that the other MMO economies are horrible to play in. FFXIV is a lot more fun than say GW2 economy driven game.
Subjective you'd say? Maybe but it does show that maybe they know better about what a game needs than you think.

I can’t speak to GW2, but cherry-picking something you clearly think is worse sets a very low bar. I don’t accept that meeting a low standard is a reasonable expectation. A long long time ago I used to help run an Eve:Online corporation, and there the sophisticated economy and market systems made for a vastly richer player experience.
The point being, Square Enix can’t be taken seriously when they talk about in-game economic structures. Their track record is one of incompetence and indifference.
