How dare you expect any information about Final Fantasy XIV in the Letter from the Producer of Final Fantasy XIV?

You must be some sort of heartless bastard.

P.S. to everyone preparing to revolt and attack SE HQ because Yoshida posted a cheeky letter: He did the same thing last year, stop getting jimmies rustled.

Playing Paying for a game means that the people responsible for making the game are now magically considered indentured servants, for whom no pity or personal compassion must be shown, because THEY'RE THE REASON YOU HAVE TO PLAY PAY FOR THIS TERRIBAD GAME, DAMMIT. SO SHUT UP AND GIMME MORE OF IT, CHURL.

Fixed!!!!!

Yoshida said he would be more careful with estimates from now on (a good thing!), so I doubt we'll hear anything until everything is ready and good to go.

I read that as, "If it doesn't personally affect me or how much or little I may personally play this game, than I don't care to hear about it, because -- other things in life besides my own needs? Pffffft. Screw them; just gimme another hit of crack."

The man was in the fucking hospital. Though, I guess that's his fault for assuming the playerbase might give the slightest hint of a damn about him as a human being, and not assuming he's a robot that exists purely for your amusement. Guess it's my fault for actually caring about anyone in the world but myself, too. I must be behind the times. I GOTTA GET WITH THE PROGRAM.

The bottom line is that he turned a "letter from the producer of ffxiv, RE: FFXIV" to "Yoshida-san personal blog"

EDIT:
Yoshida in my mind lol:

Well it's not the whole NA crowd, some (like me) enjoyed the letter. :)

Sure we care about him, but we haven't had a meaningful update on upcoming content in weeks. We expect such an update in these letters. You come off as incredibly abrasive and insulting. It's not "selfish" to desire details on a product we're paying for rather than reading yoshi's life details, regardless of what his life events entailed.
