Question about Balmung.

[Settiesama]

You took a quote that was in a joking context and actually consider that a serious response? And again the responses most people gave would work if a company was small SE isnt small they have funds and manpower.

And you must be joking again to think that the entire company works on XIV and that XIV can take what it wants from the entire funding. XIV's team is small and it only gets a % of the funding because SE's other teams have to work on many other projects.

It's these kind of responses that make people believe you are pre-teen, because you can't grasp even the basics of how companies work.

Edit: Also the context of that post, and what your posts were afterwards, suggest it wasn't a joke.

I understand that they don't only work on XIV but again they're a multi-million dollar company correct? They make millions alone from their mobile games. Why not use some of those funds to work on their on going mmo improve on what needs to be improve? Is that such a hard concept to ask? Putting more effort and mmo on a successful mmo?
You can also suggest all you'd like im literally telling you what i meant by it.

Because of the number of other game and non-game projects. Again, the XIV team is small and they have a budget for the game. Subs and Mogstation put more money into XIV's piggybank, but even then, a large % of that goes directly into SE and towards the other projects again. They can't just switch people around, and take funding from one project into another, that is not how it works.

They're small thats understandable but it's an mmo that has WoW as its competition with what they've had for a budget they've been able to some what keep up. If they had an increased budget to improve things like servers which is one big issue the game faces subs would imorove. Nobodys asking for the same amount as WoW but just more than whats given to make it a better more stable game.Lets be honest here we don't need those FFXV mobile ads that dont even show the actual gameplay of the game why not use some of that marketing budget on XIV to help the game as an example

Ads, even with nothing to do with the item they're selling, at least lead people to look at it. You also talk as though XIV is SE's only MMO when in fact they have a number of them, including XI and DQX as examples. Besides all this, you're ignoring the other major factors on why improving how much the server can handle will not work and will just lead us right back here again, and that is how many will flood in once it opens again, easily filling up however great the servers were improved, wrecking the data centre's stability and leading us to the much dreaded force server split.. And that keeping the server locked helps the other servers become healthier in the number of players. Balmung is not the game, every server is the game.
