I mean I would hope that guess is complete sarcasm.. they have a massive team and they also have contractors who make assets etc as well which was confirmed during covid as they had delays with assets pushing the game back. Also Yoshi is just a producer...he trusts who HE assigned as director...sure he needs to spend some of his time there but it isn't at all like a vast majority. Same goes for the game's content (FF14) it hasn't really changed resources have been spent elsewhere...we had reworks of ARR and complete dungeon redesign and boss encounters for a vast amount of ARR base dungeons...people don't see this when it comes to the bigger picture. They are doing stuff it just sadly doesn't cater to what you as a player wants and that's fine...not everything will be. I think they are focusing a lot of resources on QoL and revamping core foundational systems it seems which the game really does need.

Also yes some of the 14 team goes to 16 but so does some of the 16 go to 14 he said he cycles them around to give them some fresh perspective. I think some people here are very narrow minded and don't think of everything as a whole..not saying you specifically but more a general view.
