Tanaka back in charge?!

Ah, hello there. Good to see you're blaming everything you like and dont like in the loot systems in the game on one man without any proof of how much involvement he did or didn't have on them.
Guilty until proven innocent? Glad you're not running the justice system in my country.

The head position has responsibility for everything below it, that is how organizations work. If the battle system is glitched, producers responsibility. Quest, Craft, Drop rate, Balance-- it all falls on the guy at the top for not having those below them do their job correctly.

What's your point? Why are people blaming him only for the things they don't like? He was still producer throughout all the content that everyone liked, and you can not prove either way how much input he had or didn't have on that content.

Honestly its simple what players want but they will never get it because there is no way to make it work.

They want everything to be easy for them to get, but hard for everyone else to get.

Wut? I just want to be rewarded for my effort and I want to have fun while putting that effort forth. I think that's what most people want.
Of course you can't sustain a game with events that have a 95-100% chance to drop the item someone wants but you don't have to resort to events like Voidwatch where there's a high probability you will NEVER get what you want and an even higher probability that what you want will drop to someone who doesn't want it.

Which is, of course, why World of Warcraft is such a resounding critical and commercial failure.


Man, what is it with these forums giving me all these WoW lay-ups today? Is it always like this and I just never noticed?

What do you want, a written confession?

While he was heavily invovled in FFXIV FFXI changed as if from night and day(to the point mass numbers of old players came back and started having fun), shortly after he is fired from the other project FFXI goes back to the old ways.

He was working on FFXIV and made such a laughable mess of it the company fired him from the project and he took the entire load of the game being crap on his shoulders, you think now he moved back to this game and it's "coincidentally" going back to shit that's all forgotten?

We are getting mass reductions in budget, crappy updates, old horrendous time sinks, old "you need a ls" mentallity. Abyssea FFXI was a success and it's being ignored due to cheapness and idiocy.

You say that as a joke, but the sad thing is you have no way to prove either way without such proof. So shut up about it all being Tanaka's fault. And I'll state it again because I'm sure you'll love to jump to this conclusion: I have never stated either that it was nothing to do with Tanaka, nor have I stated that Tanaka was massively involved with abyssea. You know why I haven't argued that? Because I can't, I have no proof. And neither can you argue the counter that he had no involvement with Abyssea, and is calling all the shots now. For the record, that idea of "he was massively involved with abyssea" and "he had n othing to do with voidwatch" is not my opinion on the matter - don't think that it is. During this I have been careful to keep my own opinion on who had how much involvement with what to myself. Do you know why? Because what I believe is irrelevant, and there's no way to prove it. You should learn to do the same.

The content you don't like, you blame on him. Without proof of his involvement. When there is content you do like, you deny that he had any involvement. Again, without any proof.

Feel free to blame the dev team, for things you don't like, and praise them for things you like, that is of course normal. But don't go around trying to flame and blame everything you don't like on one guy, when you have zero proof that he had any more or less involvement on the things you like as the things you don't like.

People forgot about old spawn times on timed NMs inside already it seems.
