    Instead of just ignoring feedback, what they actually need is getting more people to playtest the game on their end. Having the entire team in charge of designing combat actually play all the roles and see if they are genuinely enjoyable to play or not...

    Naaah.... Instead what we're getting is them removing healer tester from their team because they just learned how to heal in an EX trial lol.

    Remember this gem? https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...340b373870140b
    Where they ended up testing the boss so much that they ended up learning how to play the fucking game and ended up doing better than average... Which lead to them ending up wanting to slightly adjust P8S...

    The top percentage of players are overwhelmingly better at the game than we are.
    Then how about you listen to those players who are currently telling you that your job design is a joke. Jesus.

    Not really that they should listen to just the top percentage players... But this part I would definitely like to point to as a top tier example of what kind of people are testing the game for us users.
    This latest installment features a boss closely tied to the dark past of a major character, and so we were focused on making this battle even more of a challenge than usual. As such, the battle team spent an inordinate amount of time together designing and testing the fight mechanics, which in turn led to them improving party coordination and communication beyond what they might usually achieve for a given boss fight.
    Their dedicated and purpose built team for testing content learned about silly things like coordination and communication because they wiped too much.

    Meanwhile, we're just out here, even as casual raiders, slapping down markers for people to stand around in most raid fights, not even talking to each other, and clearing in PF... They really are completely out of touch with the game, aren't they?
