No Public Beta Testing: good bad for the game?

[Zanarkand-Ronso]

The entire first page is basically saying this same thing.. but why?

We have a private test evertime we have a fanfest and that dosnt ruin the story..

Have a public test that's just a field with some random fates and random scattering of dummies and let people adjust their level and ilevels freely to see how things fit and flow on individual levels of game play?

Nothing story needs be added.. nothing story needs to be in the data.. it could an would work.. other games have done the same

The Media Tours or whatever they are called are moreso marketing...not testing the game. And they sign NDAs and cant talk about the game till a certain period.

A PTR is Public, not Private. And side content may not be MSQ, its still story, and there are people who care about that to.

Also if they are gonna do testing, theyd want to test multiple things, not just one thing. So access to raids and dungeons would be accessable to Test that as well.
If all SE was just gonna have a field with dummies and some fates....then why dont they just test it themselves? Why use us to test their game especially for something so small?

The idea of a PTR for this game invites the idea...that people are ok with SE just getting lazy and not doing any QA themselves, so that way We can get early acess and play stuff sooner.
I think things are better without a PTR.
Let EVERYBODY be new to everything at the same time
