Developer lack of communication

[Kaurie]

No offense, but they tried to hide the change to Mob scaling their HP and dmg with your gear during PTR and completely ignored ANY feedback about it, then when they couldn't hide it anymore because it was blatant they said they had no feedback about it on PTR despite forums post about it, so I'm afraid I'll have to disagree, blizzard is simply the worst they only listen to what benefits them. BTW this was more obnoxious because it come right after they said they would become more clear about changes in development and PTRs.

For the 5th post now. Listening is not the same thing as communication. Blizzard communicates better, because they actually engage in dialogue with their playerbase. They do not engage in dialogue on every issue, but they do on many issues. They don't always make the right choices after the communication, but that doesn't mean they didn't communicate.

FFXIV often makes the right choices, and/or balances things well, in comparison. Though, conversely, they don't engage in dialogue with the playerbase at all. They only release 1-sided live letters on a frequent basis.

Not saying they don't say anything, I'm saying that what they say holds no value because they will lie most of the time and if they do not lie they speak without anything to back it up which honestly it's worse.
There have been in the years many events where they blatantly lied despite playerbase calling them out, now I don't want to say FFXIV team didn't lied and I honestly don't care to cover them up, that's not my work, however I really don't think this dev team is worse than blizzard's
And on the infos topic honestly I just hope they won't tell us ANYTHING of the value of spells before an expansion releases in the future, consider how much immature we as players can be tbh
