SE should take a page out of... SE's... Playbook...

Ok. So why didn't SE do this too?

For the Deus Ex Human Revolution game the core game was built for the Consoles. This normally comes with a odd problem of translating a system designed to run specifically on a controller and making it friendly for someone using a Mouse and Keyboard (The same thing FFXIV is having a problem with now.)

Square Enix Edios. (Square Enix Europe, Edios Montreal, how ever you want to call them now) hired a third party developer to design and implement the UI for PC players.


So why doesn't SE do this for XIV as well?

have to hire a third party developer to design the UI for PC players....

no one in the whole company can do it? that's why XIV fail

Weird... why don't they just do that?

Not all developers have the skills to do both. Edios Montreal has been mostly doing things for Console lately. But with how advanced and all the UI options necessary for the HR game they hired a team to design the PC UI for them. Its a smart move, If you dont have the skills in house hire a team who does.
