Congrats Yoshi P. on your promotion

I'm sick of the doomsayers too, but I'm still critical of the game in some aspects.
That said, Yoshi-P has done a hell of a job creating a newer vision for FFXIV and leading a team to do it. While some people may not agree with these changes, he still deserves credit for what he has done. The game now appeals to a wider audience than 1.0 did, it feels more Final Fantasy like, he's been open with the community, the list goes on.

Congrats on making the dream team Yoshi-P!

That's arguable because in many ways, the way the game was developed takes a lot of Final Fantasy out of the game as well. I will not deny Yoshida his credit of making ARR into a better game from an overall standpoint. However he has not earned his place to be able to sit on a table to judge an overall series quality (neither does Toriyama). Yoshi-P has not made an AAA game, which makes him a B player still.
