He may have good intentions when he says stuff, but he has failed to follow through many times when it comes to content and release dates, and yes I say him, I know there is a whole development team involved, but he is the one jetting around the world getting all the credit, he is the lead producer, so when something doesn't happen how or when he says it will, then the blame lands on him.

He said Crystal Tower would be ready at release, it wasn't.
He said Free Company and personal housing would be either at release or shortly after, we still have yet to see personal housing.
He said the first patch would roll out in late October, it finally came creeping in in December.
He said we would have free company alliances, we don't.
He said the second part of the zodiak quest would be in 2.25, it wasn't.
He said we would be able to level our chocobos as any job we could have, instead we have the dumbed down 3 tree version.
He said they would have new DirectX compatibility when the PS4 version hit, we don't.
He said FC housing would be cheap enough for 2-3 people to afford from leveling 1 class to 50, we saw how that went down.
I'm sure there's plenty more I'm not thinking of right now, but you get the point.

Now I know all these things he has said and hasn't followed through on weren't directly his fault, but he is the boss, so ultimately it is up to him to get stuff done, if he can't do that, maybe he should be doing a few less PR interviews talking about stuff he can't control, and get back to the offices where he can make sure stuff is getting done.
