    Because as far as I am aware the last time we came close to voicing Healer issues to them the question was twisted from 'healer isn't fun in most content' to 'savage is to easy to heal' which got the somewhat Infamous 'go play ultimate' response.
    Call them out. Or, well, keep calling them out lol. I mean, I’m getting a little mean here myself, but it’s pretty frequent that SE actually reads player feedback, they just take literally any kind of criticism as either ‘mean-spirited trolling’ or ‘they just don’t get ’. Look at when ff16 came out and Yoshi-P practically excluded every negative review about it they read because he was like ‘well they're just MEAN’. Or indeed the forum-classic ‘but did you do ultimate yet?’ I mean, the saddest thing is that even if the question wasn’t twisted he’d have given the exact same answer. ‘If you find healer boring in general content do something harder’. Which, is a complete non-answer.

    It’s not even reaching the devs that's the problem, it’s the fact that they classify criticisms under the ‘mean-spirited’ category instead of the ‘indicates a major issue’ category. Eventually they’re going to have either conclude that literally every ffxiv player is just a mean-spirited bully…or that there seriously is an actual issue with the game

    There's been a lot of feedback that the devs can use that has been given already, but without fail, there will always be someone that pops in and makes some wild outlandish claim that then derails discussion into people trying to correct them. I do think people should ignore potential troll and loaded statements, that would lead to more productive discussion, but I also can't blame people for wanting to correct misinformation.

    I think one of the problems is that there's nobody chosen for the media tour that can represent healer concerns, so nobody is able to give direct feedback to Yoshi P himself. Although, even if someone is able to get feedback directly to the man himself, there's no guarantee that he wouldn't just give a non-answer and handwave the question away.
