Sena Bryer is right: the hatred that Smile gets is highly problematic

It's a troll account stirring the pot(drama/dumb topics/etc) on purpose.

Do not bring whatever dumpster fire that got started there here, because the thread post is a strongly-inclined opinion and does not welcome debate, hence it is clickbait. Take it back where it belongs.

Yes, same here. Which is why I am disappointed the song doesn't seem to be here. I hope there's a reasonable reason why, but if it's cause Soken was told by someone to cut it for Smile... I will be SO angry.

i thought this thread got deleted

Listening to Smile makes me want to tear my ears off

I think Koji was one of the main lyricists for most of the game's lifespan, and he's in managerial purgatory with Ishikawa and company(both are credited with the lyrics on Wayward Daughter, since you brought it up). Soken could have received a similar promotion and is spread too thin, people responsible for the technical aspects could've gotten lazy with it, there could have been micromanaging from other parties, or any other number of reasons.

Yeah I wish they wouldn't keep spreading people too thin. It seems yoship koji and possibly soken and ishikawa are now on multiple projects and can tell a pretty big drop in quality in terms of story and some of the music in dawntail with them being focused on so many other things on top of ff14.

She did not say that everyone is bigoted. She is only talking about a certain segment of the playerbase. You don't need to be so defensive like Sena said.

For the love of Christ, please no one comment or engage with this BS further.

This Losado person above me is a bored troll who literally comes in once a week to bump this dead horse of a thread or similar ones.

They are just pushing "agendas" that neither exist, nor they believe in just to try and bait people into arguing with each other for their amusement.

Look at their post history, it's all starting or bumping bait threads.
