Time to move on since Square Enix does not listen to its Constituents

[Shai]

I want to start off by saying I agree with everything you're saying. I just want to point out that tidal wave and animus weapons are actually 3rd best weapon available ...

Oh, that's true. I keep forgetting about those weapons cause I'm not going for it on either of my 2 main jobs. Good point.

I mean, Animus will apparently upgrade to Novus soon, and then maybe it will be comparable, but that means we're talking about something that from the start of 2.2 until the time of Novus (or beyond) will be months away anyway - so there really was NEVER a rush to get Animus completed. You're better off farming the weapons that actually do require skill, and farming Atma & Myth tomes when you only have an hour here/there and have nothing better to do. That's my philosophy anyway.

You need to get over yourself OP. Casual or not, you aren't going to change the game nor many opinions(if none) by leaving.

OP is expressing dissatisfaction. I am not sure why others would feel the need to defensively lash out at them. It's a game, he/she is not insulting anyone's relatives or anything. I don't recall the OP trying to "recruit" anyone for anything.... everyone can calm down.

OTOH, people leaving does impact a game. 1.0 proved that.

Thats because almost everybody left but if they lose a 1000 and gain 20k I don't think SE cares. Just like Wal-Mart doesn't care I don't shop there, burger king doesn't care I don't eat their food, and Microsoft doesn't care they lost a 10yr die hard Xbox fan due to their policies.

We don't know how many are leaving and joining. They don't release that data... or haven't yet. They just released PS4, subs haven't stabilized.

Only time will tell if players like the direction things are going- if not, I have no doubt they will adjust accordingly.

Meanwhile, in 1.0 people said the same thing- populations are fine - until they aren't. Again, without data, we can't say what impact is... pretending it doesn't matter at all, though is a dangerous proposition.

This company is not Microsoft, and success of this game has been said is critical to their financial wellbeing.

You should walk in there and start telling everybody why you don't shop there. That will make things better.

We do know they are throwing around numbers keft and right did you watch any of their ps4 ads or read any of their comments. Hell they having a Live show in least then 30mins. They seem very content with their numbers.

Because marketing is the best source for this kind of data.

That is all publicity material. I am not saying that things aren't fine- I am saying we don't know the data. I remember when WoW made sub claims from marketing and was counting banned and free accounts to get artificially high numbers.

I am not saying that is what is happening here... I am just saying we don't know and it is marketing's job to make things look hot and exciting.

You know, it has been a interesting read for the past 14 pages of all the people who state that it does not matter if I am leaving or not, your right....it does not matter. But here again lies the fact that SE has made a step for progression based solely on Random Number Generation and not based on skill which alot here seemed not to read. If you seriously look at the progress from Relic Ilvl 80 to 90, there is a complete set of challenges to complete that required some form of skill base be it healing, DD, or tanking. To all those who played at launch remembering how getting your relic and trying to down Titan HM over and over again until finally killing him with a good team and feeling like you accomplished something and wearing you piece of gear proudly.
