Just because you appreciate what they do doesn't mean that they are immune to criticism. How else can they get even better?

I meant the fall and rise of ffxiv on youtube.

It's still a product we pay money for. It's not like they're doing something for free and everyone it picking it apart ^^ Of course devs often put their heart into their project, but being a dev myself I know all the restrictions, be it budgets, deadlines etc. You can never make a product as amazing as you would like to, it's usally "do it fast and ship asap". Only by making criticism heard can we get SE suits to eventually put more ressources into fixing certain things that need fixing. It's not the devs that are making the final decisions, and it's not the devs people are criticising.
You people did very well at proving my point.
I’ve watched the Fall and Rise series several times, as well as other videos comparing 1.0 to 2.0 and so on. I’ve played this game since HW. While the developers have come a long way, there is still plenty they can do to make the game even better. Any criticism that I offer comes from a desire of wanting the game to thrive—not from pettiness. However, I cannot speak for others with this regard.
Basically, this.
People that stand at the boss body waiting for loot to drop.
I wonder if certain players posting here are even aware that a lot of changes, QoL and content added that they enjoy was due to the community giving feedback and/or complaining about something. In fact, the whole 1.0 to ARR transition come to mind.
Recently been playing Dancer as it's my final job to get to 80 and I despise using Standard Step in any overworld field content.
I've been doing sidequests to get more exp, and I have to be extremely careful to use it far away from other mobs or else it calls in all of the boys and I basically get killed while hiding behind curing waltz and shield samba.
I do love it for mob pulls though in dungeons.
