Are We Wasting Our Time?

Not a BST, but I imagine it's beneficial to get your preferred pet later because you can make them level 99 at that point.

The pets in question are set to be released with the 99 cap update, if I'm reading everything correctly.

Final Fantasy XIV < $$$ < Final Fantasy XI < JP Forums < US Forums.

I agree with this priority and its BS. FFXIV is still crap and if they were to do a overhaul of anything it should be FFXIV should just be new area's for FFXI. Like an upgrade and or expantion into one game that needs to be unlocked and not used by PS2 players. Either way I'm sure with the number of responses that come from the english forums this game should cater to NA over any other region. I barley see JP players on anymore (at least in Valefor) And im on normally during JP primetime playing.

FFXIV is still crap

It's really not still crap, it has greatly improved and is still improving, just like FFXI. Play FFXI at its japanese launch, I guarantee you'd have found it crap.

Wow, when did we become so entitled, anyway? You're asking SE to prioritize you over its own market where it's based? And who would have thunk that fans of FFXI would want them to prioritize their game over some other game? This is a totally, TOTALLY unbiased, reasonable viewpoint...

Square Enix is a Japanese company. Why should they prioritize us over their own people? In all actuality, nobody should be prioritized, we should all be treated equally.

Go read the reply from camate about the lvl99/100 discussion, he even says that the japanese forums wanted lvl99, without even mentioning what was the result of what the NA/EU boards wanted, and thats just one flagrant example...

I'm sure not all 44 pages were just for the scorpion. i know i voted for the hippogryph, and a lot of others voted for slime.

I'm sure not all 44 pages were just for the scorpion. i know i voted for the hippogryph, and a lot of others voted for slime.

I took the time to count votes on both forums. If every single JP that voted had voted for Hippo NA votes for Scorp would have still beaten them. Counting votes for Slime Ruszor Scorp and Hippo from both forums it would have looked like this:

#1 Scorp
#2 Ruszor
#3 Slime
#4 Hippo

In other words the only thing that mattered at all was which won on the JP forums.

You know, i'm kind of surprise any one would come on this thread and say "who cares." If given a chance to have a voice in what happens next, and than afterwards being told "well we didn't really care what you had to say, it's just what these players over here preferred". I'd be a little upset. You people spend money on this game every month just like jp players, and are no less fateful to the game. If the fact's are true, regardless of the job or topic. You people should be upset not coming on here trolling for conflict.

[Greatguardian]

To be fair, if this is what happened, I doubt Camate is very happy about it either. I don't envy the position he's been put in right now.

[Ash]

Actually i think camate jobs is to pretend s-e has communication with their NA(dunno if he does EU boards too) playerbase, but when you read closely any of the community posts reps, its pretty obvious who runs the show...and its not us.


Also its not like jp favoritism is new, its been like that since day one of the game and i wouldn t be surprised that ithey wouldn t give a sh*t if all their NA/EU playerbase quit...they d still keep the game running for the japanese and laugh.
