6.2 Patch Notes

[aveyond-dreams]

I stand by my opinion that I'd be ok with FFXIV going offline for a year if it came back with instanced housing for every player, a better glamour system with no storage restrictions, and overall less technical debt. They've had 10 years to solve some of these problems and as someone who has been here since day 1 of ARR I'm kinda tired of hearing the same excuses repeated over and over as to why we can't have nice things. It's time to actually fix them.

Are you high? In what universe would this be necessary for instanced housing?

Dont look at me, Aveyond is the one that suggested it.

@Darthgummibear - If you had any doubts, he just said it again for you RIGHT THERE.
And I repeat...THANK GOD you dont make decisions for the Company.
But nobody reasonable would disagree that it would be nice that issues are solved.

- Game goes offline for a year

- Revenue plummets

- No funding from other games as they have their own budgets.

- No revenue from FF 14 means no money, means no salaries, means they start laying staff off, means the people you want to do this stuff leave to find other employment..when they finally get back to restarting..those staff are long gone, working elsewhere and cant be recovered, as they are now in new jobs, sure as hell wont quit their new job to come back to a company that laid them off in the first place.

- You cant hand money from other games teams over to FF 14 as that has to be signed off by the CFO and CEO..who allocate budgets for each project , guess what, never the twain shall meet.

If the game shuts down, wheres the money going to come from to keep these staff?

The money from the game pays the salaries of the people you want to not work for a year.
