That sounds fun,
Did SE fired all XI designers? because they aren't a "modern guy"?

not exactly because *modern guy* the real was because the old team failed and nearly bankrupted the company.

I am not stockholder, I am gamer

XIV1.2x didn't failed to me, every content it added, was more interesting than now,
No one complained 1.2x contents were boring, FCs are very active, unlike now
XI seems more interesting to me.
modern games= stupid and simple? like some Web games or mobile games? no, thx

of course, higher quality content requires more time to develope
but SE wants their money back asap, (and the director maybe too lazy/slow) that's the reason why XIV 1.0 failed, because it was an empty,unfinished game when it released.

xiv1.2 had 10k players

people didn't complain? i highly doubt that wasn't there so who knows the old forums could be the very first to never get people to complain.

you aren't the first to like xi better than arr you won't be the last.

1.0 was tanaka from what everyone says it was from lack of strong leadership (tanaka wanting to do one thing employees doing things differently)
in the end no matter what was the blame it happened

idk from what people want here quality isn't about how long it takes its about making monsters nearly one shot you and give you drops once every 2000 kills where the gear lasts for 5 years.

Ya ,during 1.1x-1.2x people complained the servers suck, the ui was slow, the movement control was chunky, the maps were copy & paste.
but no one complained the content was "boring", "stale" or "getting old fast," or something, they were fun,
I've joined two FCs, both of them were very active, now they are all dead,

Of course, Tanaka had some faults, even Steve Jobs had, no one is perfect,
but if you fired these guys, then, it's an ultimate fault

i never knew steve jobs nearly bankrupted his own company also once again his own company, also he stole all his work so lets at least not put tanaka in the same lane as a guy who got rich taking other peoples ideas.

some faults sure, but xiv flop wasn't small it was giant.

and once again i wasn't on the forums in 1.0 but i would say the chances that people didn't like the content was high. that's what forums are for to complain people don't normal show to praise the game but say what they don't like, the same goes for xi plenty of people went on the forums to bash the game it's just natural.

LoL, again, XIV 1.0 failed/almost bankrupted(really?) the company because it was far from finished,
and SE want to sell the product & get back their money asap,
and maybe Mr. Nobuaki Komoto was not very efficient while working.

NOT BECAUSE the contents were boring. got it?...
not because the content designs bankrupted the company

Maybe all they needed, was a guy to push them hard, to work harder/faster,
but not change the entire game direction, omg , now the game is super stale & boring... it's a real fail to me now

people repeat this but it means nothing if the game was so good and just needed some touch up how would a few small patches to make things better get 490k players to join and stay?(a number to match ff14 arr at its lowest ever) i mean the content was already amazing as you said so what was the big thing that stop people from enjoying the game like you did?

there is only 1 excuse i can truely see as *game breaking for most people* that stop people from playing and that was you needed a great computer to play the game but would just lowering the graphic for bad computers (not even consoles just computers) so more people could play would that have saved the game?
