I'm sick of not having primal weapons on dancer.

ill wait and see
like Zurvan crafted weapons are around the corner
if they add DNC and GNB to the crafted and normal pool
it just means they will add them slowly along wit Susano crafted weapons etc etc

also have to wait two weeks to see if they add alex weapons to GNB and DNC when Alex Ult is out

The FFVII remake won’t turn a profit?

I will say this though, I am SICK of Yoshi P saying he don't have the resources.


Simple Fix -- GET THE GOD FORSAKEN RESOURCES THEN

DEMAND THEM -- we as players have made this company, and game SUPER SUCCESSFULL, there is NO DAMN REASON WE SHOULD HAVE TO READ "I DONT HAVE THE RESOURCES"


Get the damn resources

---

We get what we get, it was pre-planned, and we better like it or leave it. I think it's simply misallocation of resources. I think somewhere I read that new devs wouldn't matter because they would have be trained; couldn't keep up with the "quality" the team normally provides or something like that. They won't contract it out, and keep it all in-house. I think that is a joke, because we don't get too much "quality" as it is. Just saying. We have a new facepaint in the mogstation (handled by a seperate team), but they still apparently can't do stubble - which would be effectively equivalent to facepaint. Not to mention the sub-par state Viera/Hrothgar were released in, where hrothgar are irreparably flawed, and we will probably not see any hairstyles besides the handful they gave us for viera, not even the ones we literally paid for, for a very long time. Plus the hilarious skin tone mesh on the 2b outfit. They actually put in the time to fit that dress to males though, so they can crossdress, but they can't fix any of this, because of "resources".

This is a problem at the top, and it needs to be fixed.

I was only being half serious. I really doubt it'll be a success for SE though, they've got a history of bloated development schedules (which VII has already fallen into) and running up costs of development which results in them labeling fairly well selling games as failures. They've already opted to make it episodic to help with that, but I'm skeptical that an episodic release of VII will pan out well in the long term, especially if we get another case of the XIIIs and XVs where it's all flash and no substance. Regardless, I expect the novelty of a HD VII will drop off and sales for future episodes will decline, especially if they fluff the post-Midgar gameplay. They'll turn a profit, but as with most of their AAA releases in past years, I expect them to be disappointed with it.

Meanwhile, something like XIV chugs along steadily making profit and increasing in popularity despite lackluster funding... Honestly that's probably why Yoshida has such a hard time securing resources, they've done amazing with what little SE gives them and just keep gaining subscribers...

It is true that SE has ridiculously high standards for how well their games should perform. The Eidos branch keeps getting gutted for low sales in Tomb Raider and Deus Ex. Heck, Hitman even got siphoned off due to it eventually. It's not like they were crazy good numbers, but they weren't bad.

Then I remember them saying they wanted XV to have atleast 10 million copies sold in lifetime sales or it's be considered a failure. Sometimes they really need to slow down with their urgency.

There are different people working on different things. The people that design weapons and armor probably aren't the same people that do the performance updates. And while they have a couple guest creators for the Nier raids I doubt another stuidio is actually doing all the work on it outside of FFXIV's budget.

Yes, it would be nice if the game got more of a budget, and Yoshi P would probably like one, but he's also not the sole decision maker in SE.

As for what they did give us:

SB pvp weapons (1)
SB Leveling dungeon weapons (5)
Crafted SB leveling weapons (5)
Shire weapons (1)
Scaeven weapons (1) (I forget if they gave us the tier before Scaeven too would have to check, but assuming no for this list.)
POTD/HOH weapons (3)


That's not counting SHB content itself.

So yeah, it's disappointing we don't get dancer weapons for everything. But I also can't fault them for not hitting everything.

They just need to stop wasting resources on useless crap(bard performance as an example)

I agree, but only because they don't allow Performance in instances, thus it is completely and utterly pointless. What's the point of being able to doot if I can't doot while idiots are wiping to simple mechanics?

You could stop thinking the world revolves around you. I am sure there are a lot of people very happy with upgrades to the performance system.

Not getting glamour weapons that you want doesn't make the dev team lazy. Their design goals just don't line up with your fashion desires at the moment.
