Would you be upset if the game went offline?

If SE came to the Lodestone and said.. we are going to shut this *** game down for 2 weeks and fix this ***! [Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XIV FORUM Guidelines.]... In two weeks.. I would give them the chance.. but if they came and said.. uhh.. oh yeah, we are going to fix this game but will need to shut down the servers for 2 plus years.. i would concider that a GAME OVER.

Honestly, if S-E came to the Lodestone and gave a specific date, specific timeframe, and say specifically what it was they'd be doing, it could be three years and I'd give them the chance. What's killing it for me is the complete lack of specifics. I don't know when it'll be updated, not even vaguely, I don't know what they're planning to do except for a few components, I don't know what this game is even supposed to be.

It's like you bought a car, right? But everyone hates the kind of car you got. Like, it's a minivan but everyone wants a hummer. So you call your mechanic over and he says he'll fix it so it's not a minivan, so he starts making all these changes like installing a new radio and getting spinners for the tires and he's really been working hard on building a completely new engine for you but right now it still looks like a minivan and while he suggests that'll change you really can't be excited about a car you don't have, don't know when you'll have it, and don't even know what it's going to be. I mean, for all you know he could just be building you that dog van from Dumb & Dumber or maybe he's going to make it a sports car, but who knows?

I don't mind waiting, if I know what I'm waiting for.
