No Viera/Hroth updates, instead a mobile version no one asked for.

What the actual f?

So the devs decided to sink money into a mobile version of the game when 2 races still don't have the hat and hair updates that were promised.

There aren't enough swear words in the world that I would like to type out here.

I WILL DO THE COMPATIBILITY FOR FREE WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU CBU3???

Please remember this is essentially a Chinese company making and running it all... SE just lent the IP and assets for the most part - akin to what was planned with Mobile FFXI originally.

No hats. You will receive no new content and 14 for your Samsung Smart Fridge. Please look forward to it.

It should be a simple hotfix, we shouldn't have to wait for a Live Letter to address small fixes. It's things like these that makes me despise japanese companies because of the lack of feedback.

Honestly, we should flood page 1 of General Discussion by bumping all viera/hroth complaint threads. Make them the only thing you see on the forums.

Unless gaming articles and content creators start to cry about it en masse, there will be no change. Get loud and obnoxious.
Gaming companies like SE hate when they've got a bad reputation, give them a bad reputation. It's not like they are deserving of a good one right now.

Yep! Or like, organize when they livestream to flood the chat. And unsubbing, but it would have to be made clear the reason for unsubbing.

It's still SE FFXIV money being spent.

Oh so you have access to their internal financial records. What else can you tell us?

I think Viera and Hrothgar arent in the mobile version.

I wonder what engine the mobile version is built on and how it handles clipping of objects.

If anything we are hoping that the mobile version does extremely well because it could be the key to getting FFXIV rebuilt on a new engine.

That we pay them to run this game, that they then take that money and Square Enix decides what to fund.

And they have decided to use that money on a Mobile game.

Do you actually believe that all income from xiv just vaporises, and they are funding this with magical money exclusively from other franchises?

That's just it... SE isn't spending money on this. They are loaning the FFXIV IP to Tencent....Which means Tencent is paying Square Enix to use the IP... Which means the game is making SE money to be spent on things... Like... Potentially paying the dev that can then be put to work fixing the Viera/Hroth hat "issue" that Viera players etc agreed to when they VOTED to get them in the state granted - as in the poll to vote it was mentioned they would have those restrictions [from before even being offered to be added to the game] over the options like the half-race options for more creation options where they COULD implement things.
