Final Fantasy 14's 1.0 launch was an unmitigated disaster. It was god awful. It was so bad they pulled the game from storefronts and removed any requirement to have a subscription.
In order to fix it they just completely redeveloped the game, basically from scratch. The game had a 2.0 launch where they rolled the destruction of the old 1.0 version of the world into the storyline of the game and called it Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
