Naoki Yoshida says negative comments from trolls are "tiresome"

Not having " Hissatsu: Kaiten " is also tiresome mhm!!

Aren't we jumping the gun here a little bit? A lot of creators love to call anyone who dares offer criticism trolls as a way of trying to invalidate the things they don't want to hear. 95% of the criticism of this game that I have seen comes from a place of deeply caring for the game and wanting to make it better. Those people aren't "trolls" just because you either don't agree with them or don't even want to hear their opinions, Squeenix.

Was about to say the same, a lot of people don't understand you can be unhappy with a game and voice your opinion without being a total jackass about it.

FWIW, he is almost certainly talking about comments from JP. It's extremely funny that a few people in this thread think Yoshida is sitting here reading the incredibly mild comments on the English forums and getting upset.

Certain elements of the JP gaming community are INCREDIBLY unhinged and hateful. I browse 5ch sometimes and there are some absolutely deranged threads that make these forums look like the nicest place on earth in comparison.

There are threads dedicated to bullying YoshiP on 2ch/5ch, wherein people post all kinds of insane accusations and personal information about him..

Answer these questions without looking it up then.

Where do you get the Floater item to get the airship in FF1?

What's the most overpowered weapon against Mateus in FF2?

How do you kill enemies that divide themselves every time you attack them in FF3?

Who's the blacksmith that forges the Excalibur in FFIV? (Hint an Endwalker npc is named after him)

Which basement location has the best method to farm JP in FFV?

Which character was suffering from the Dream Stooges in FFVI?

How many Turtles Paradise flyers do you need to collect for the stat boosting item rewards in Wutai in FFVII?

What was the ps1 peripheral that SE tried to push in order to access some mini-games in FFVIII?

What optional boss can you find in the Memoria in FFIX?

How many lighting bolts must you doge in order to get Venus Sigil in FFX?

What was the most popular location for players to farm exp early game in FFXI?

What was the famed weapon you get from opening specific chests in FFXII?

Why was FFXIII such a disaster?

And here we are with FFXIV

I mean given the level of... ‘constructive criticism’ one sees here and elsewhere on the wide web at time, I can really understand why he would find some of the feedback tiresome. Constructive criticism is all well and good, and naturally a needed part of any creative medium. However there will always be trolls poking with sticks, and those who state they are polite and constructive, but mask subjective options as fact with a side of spiteful glee.
