Anima Weapons

[Kiri_Tqnikaze]

Allow me to offer some insight:
1.)FFXIV development team is SUPER SMALL.
2.)This is an mmo with a monthly sub. This means that the devs will profit more the longer they can keep an individual subscribed. One way to keep people subbed is to create content that takes a significant amount of time to complete.
3.) To me , this is the most important tid bit: This Anima Relic is completely OPTIONAL. No one is holding a gun to your head other than your own damn ego.

You are owed nothing by the devs. So, if you wanna complain about what this small dev team is busting their ass off to hand over to you then you should probably unsub and not look back.
REPEATING: The devs do not owe you a goddamn thing. Either do the content and brag about your stupidcool looking new relic, or simply don't do it. Those wanting to stroke each others ego over their inability to have patience? Go. To. Reddit. And leave the rest of us alone.

Wow harsh but true

[Kiri_Tqnikaze]

Maybe it is harsh. But I feel saying it nicely would mean that it would be taken less seriously.
I love this game. And I made the choice to support these devs for as long as I have the money to do so. Keep rocking it Yoshi! (Even though he'll never read this thread lol)

Relic does not bring new content. It's just the old content but You have to repeat it 51314894 times.

Relic is OPTIONAL, You are right, if relic turn into mandatory, move to other game.

1.)FFXIV development team is SUPER SMALL.

You don't need a great team of devs for make relic funny...just need to think a bit more...

hey, as long as you have fun that's the important part! don't listen to anyone that says otherwise

until yesterday i had no real objective to playing this game, now i do!! (i'm doing the Crystal grind even though i can skip it)

Allow me to offer some insight:

Words here

1) No one cares? They're running a MMO against top market competitors and they are one of the major game developers in the world. Shape up, or ship off.

2) Their content is driving players away. Everything about 3.0 is driving players away and relics are going to help it.

We are owed nothing by the Devs? Excuse me? Why exactly do we pay them? Do you go to Maccas and just throw $20 at a cashier and not expect a burger? What if you request a Big Mac and just get a Cheeseburger? You'd complain? Funny that.

REPEATING: The devs get paid because they have customers, which means keeping them satisfied. A lot are not satisfied which means no pay.

Alright little man. You apparently can't see the developers as human beings who need to pay bills, feed children, and take care of their own well being.
If you are unsatisfied, I suggest that you unsub and drop it. Your bitching is not justified and you are not owed anything. Stop being so self centered.

Your monthly sub guarantees you the right to play the game. That is all. No more. No less. But I swear there's this toxic element of entitlement these days, in which people feel that the monthly sub should guarantee you everything. "I'm a casual player, but I want to do endgame content, but it's just so hard. Can you make it easier for me?" "I want the best weapon in the game, but I'd rather not have to earn it. Can you make it easier?"

Seriously, to repeat, the only thing your monthly sub guarantees you is the right to play the game. What you do with that, is up to you. And if you think it's not fun, then I urge you, follow your gut. Unsub as fast as you can. Go play something you genuinely find fun, not something you -wish- was fun.

feels like thay just copy-pasterd the old relic system. even the story feels the same. xxx comes from a [not galaxy] far far away to continue there masters legecy. and with the help of [player name] and the master blacksmith he will embark on a long tiring journey of sitting on he's rump wile [player name] dose all the fecking work

How do you distinguish entitlement and feedback? In some cases they're mixed together.
Trying to suppress these options is no good for the SE or the game. Assuming that everyone who isn't fond of this implementation wants an "I win" button is a stretch. There are legitimate concerns about RNG progression and crafted items.

SE remade this game into success because of all the negative feedback it received. I'd rather SE receive feedback now about specifics, than later when budgeting and wondering where their subscriber went.
