You need to give up on XI-2

[Rydin]

I think you can tell that Yoshi has proven himself an amazing director.

While he has done a good job... I wouldn't call him an "amazing director" just yet...
We still have yet to see the bulk of his contribution.
Also, he has some proven and tested final fantasy developers on his staff...
He may end up proving his greatness... 2.0 will definitely be quite a barometer... but right here, right now, calling him "amazing" is jumping the gun a little...

And I'm actually a fan of Yoshi and what he is doing... Let's just try to be realistic

Rydin and I agree/disagree on fundamentals but I always believe that he brings up good points. This is one of them and one that we share.

The fans are putting a ton of unrealistic emphasis on 2.0. I know that part of it has to do with the common response of "...in 2.0..." but we let our imaginations run wild. I really hope people keep expectations realistic. No, realistic is not "I'm a paying customer and I DEMAND my socks be blown off" - that's entitlement. Hope for the best, expect better than now, and be prepared for something in between.
