Actually I did vote against drastic changes, but I was seriously on the fence. Like the early reviewers, I found a lot to like about the game in the sense of promising game concepts.
I noticed most of the replies so far have been simple get with it type posts. It's easy to completely miss the point of what someone is saying because you attach more strongly to my dissatisfaction than my message, which is that drastic changes don't have to be accompanied by a lack of consideration. Even if you somehow feel that the lack of consideration doesn't affect you, just consider yourself blissfully ignorant and realize that your feelings aren't representative of everybody.
Dev Team, show me you care about your players because I just don't see it (long read)

The reason people voted yes so strongly, was to fix the problems they complained about, not the problems they didn't complain about.
If they decided to delete everyone's character the day before 2.0, are you STILL going to return to; "Well, you DID vote for drastic changes."
(Deletion being done, solely to change all races into 1 new one, with a new world/story, and no levels/exp, or classes. Pure example of how this relates.) -
11-15-2011, 08:27 PMNeptuneActually just so I'm clear, I don't totally like what I have now, and I do want things to change. For instance, I like the abolishment of AP. That is great. I don't mind change, what I have a problem with is wiping out progress with nothing but an anonymous post on the Lodestone. This should stop. How about, if your Sentinel class is wiped, a free Gladiator class to make up for it. How about if your class is wiped or changed extensively, we will make up for it by giving you a choice that's meaningful. Not "your class is wiped by the way your gains are invalid" with nothing further.Quote:

11-15-2011, 08:42 PMShethyou are confusing Square-Enix with Sony or GMC, this is an MMO RPG not a radio in your car, second point is why do you want something in return when you did actually nothing to earn those points on that class? So you are basically whinging about something you never worked for and want something in return when they took it away.Quote:

11-15-2011, 08:46 PMZeroeffectIf they took your/my shield lvls tomarrow I honestly wouldn't care. All I've had to do with shield is put it on I didn't work hard the the lvl's..Quote:

And you should to.
I really don't know that you want when talking about the Lodestone. -

The devs should spend their time fixing bugs and adding new content, not providing compensation that temporarily inconveniences a small group of people.
Folks these days. They just want instant gratification. I work for my achievements, and plan for any contingency, while still having 48 hour weekly work shifts and family.
If you really gave a hang about being a competent mage, you would have lvl 50 in both anyways.
But I digress.
The devs know what they are doing, and in the end the game will be better off, whether you believe it, or wish to be the victim. -

I'm not surprised in the slightest, but I think several of you think of the dev team as an incredible chef that lives in your house and cooks you exotic meals every day, of which you eat with no questions asked. To me the dev team is more like a talented group of artists that I support, but in return I require an experience that is enjoyable, and in the case of an online game, I expect for my progress not to be taken away.
