Can we focus one thing at a time? SE still had to rebound first
Can we focus one thing at a time? SE still had to rebound first
and the point of this thread is that rebounded won't matter if you have a game dominated by people who botted.
Let me give a real life example of how people prefer to play without cheaters:
When Diablo II was released it came with open and closed battlenet.
Closed battle net (AT THE TIME) was moderated with chars stored on blizzard servers, and was nearly impossible to bot or cheat on.
Open battle net on the other hand used chars stored on your local harddrive to it was -really- easy to cheat.
Guess which battlenet was most popular?
Closed.
Non-cheaters are generally adverse to playing with cheaters because it tends to ruin their experience.
If FFXIV is dominated by cheaters, or by people who have cheated to get where they are, it will prob turn a large number of people away.
And since this isn't a problem that can be fixed overnight, it should be a serious issue that is taken care of now before it gets further out of hand.
Again, i strongly point out that FFXI had -major- problems from hyperinflation due to RMT and Botting (specifically rusty cap botting). And it took years and significant effort to fix.
