    But you can stop making it sound like they're doing all of this out of the goodness of their hearts. They don't want to make sure we feel we got our money's worth, they want to make sure we give them more money. That isn't happening unless they fix it.

    They want money, not love. End of story.

    No, SE wants money. Yoshi-P has a vision... he's getting paid either way. You could compare his work to an artist's as he is trying to craft with the help of his team, something really special. To him it is not only about trying to make more money, as that money will got to SE not in his pocket. You can tell from his letters, interviews etc that he holds this project at heart, especially being a hardcore mmo player himself, he wants this to be the best possible and not for the money but for the accomplishment of doing so. As he said before, he wants this to be the FFVII of mmos.

    SE doesn't need our encouragement or praises. Yoshi-P and his team on the other could use it. Just to give them a reminder that we are supportive of their hard work and that we will be there along the way to give them all the feedback and suggestion needed to make this a solid game. Yoshi-p mentioned many times that comments on the forum can very harsh and it doesn't help them, it would be nice for them to see the opposite for once.

    Okay, but these threads pop up at least once a week. It isn't "for once," but if that's what floats your boat, knock your socks off.

    Square-Enix exists to make money, as a moral entity, a company.
    The developers are persons and we are supporting them.
    Big differences.

    LOL cash shop! SE's way to tell their player how they appreciate them... pull the carrot and empty your pockets $$$
    And to those who support it: you are kicking yourselves. -- We just need to sit back and laugh at people with cash shop items.
    (Marvelous economics IQ test!)

    the devs are hired to make products that people will buy. Though you can argue its the development teams "art" its not always the case. I think yoshi is kind of half way in that aspect, he is making it so it will sell, giving us what we ask for, but hes trying to do things he likes too.

    Of course you cant say this about all devs, some of them are in it to make money ::cough same call of duty every year ;;COUGH

    i have a shop around the corner from me, you could call it a "local corner shop" when i go in, me and the shop keeper know each other by name. we have conversation and on time to time i have suggested thing he should sell. the point is he respects me and i respect him, but that don't change that fact that he is there to take my money for a product i need or desire

    ppl that think you don't need to show some1 respect, for what ever reason they justify to themself. are the reason the world is going to pot
