Yoshi-P is just Ion Hazzikostas with a good attendance card

Ion H.: "Don't you people have phones?"
Yoshi-P: "Don't you people have houses?"

... checks out.

at least yoshi-p isn't sexually harassing his employees

and causing them to commit suicide.

There's some stuff I'd love to change about the game, but I guess we should be more mad that other games aren't offering a better alternative. FF XIV has been using the same formula for almost 9 years. Rivals have had time to take notes on the things this game does well, and surpass it in the areas that are stale and outdated. They haven't learned enough.

Opinions about Yoshida's style aside, he's objectively performed great in growing the subscriber count and he's also a nice dude who interacts with the community more than he is required to, so he gets an A+. There's no pressure for him to do anything different because the game keeps doing good numbers. We're really lacking for alternative games that don't have even bigger flaws.

Yeah no, I have my complaints about things, especially the healing experience with each passing expansion, but Yoshi-P ain't Ion Hazzikostas until proven otherwise. Blizzard's workplace problems was more than some dropped balls in development. The comparison is, frankly, in poor taste.

Eight years later and still facing the same core issues. Six years after apartments launched and they were never expanded in functionality the way they should have been from the start. Eventually the excuses just become a stale, bland blur of gibberish. Island Sanctuaries are NOT going to fix housing or they would have announced it a YEAR+ ago.

Such devastation. I just LOL about it now.

I think the only one who should leave is you. You joined in late 2021 just following the bandwagon of people behind streamers. Don't come into another game telling them to change things up and jeopardize it like you did with WoW.

Edit: I do believe the staff working under him might be incompetent at times, and they might be lying or exaggerating to him about issues that reasonable programmers could fix. I'm not blaming Yoshida for these things, but theres definitely people within the company who aren't doing their best.

The forums also say i joined this year but my account was made in october 2013.
Some of us have never had a reason to visit the forums

...As far as we know.

This post is nothing but a straight troll post. No dev on any other game could be like Ion Hazzikostas. That guy makes WoW just so the players can stayed logged in for hours doing boring @ss stuff. He does not care for the game. Just the money in his pocket. You should just go back to WoW instead of bringing your troll post to the FFXIV forums. Plus anyways we have enough troll posters already applying for the position.

I don't go off that phrase of "As far as we know".

If everyone went off a stupid phrase like that then all men and women are pedofiles, but we don't know it.

How about we stick to the facts and truth, Blizzard is in the spot light of grabbing their employees and stealing Breast Milk.............NOT Yoshi-P

With japanese working over 60 hours per week I don't think they have the energy lol.

I think moderators should close forums for a few hours, I understand they are upset about Housing Ultimate (people thought the memes were only a joke!?).
Yea, they dropped the ball with lottery system, but taking it as a chance to complain about core expects of the game is just wasting effort.

If you start a thread and your Join Date is above 2019 I will just expect that you want a WoW but not WoW and move on.
