it/its - 14 accessibility is bad, ease of access is not accessibility, jobs are boring. Transphobia ruins real attempts at criticism and it's whack.
Cool. We haven't been respected for expansions. When they actually bother to respect us as players, and stop half-assing everything, then they'll earn my respect. They're lucky to still be earning my money.
New story MSQ.
"Speak to Wuk Lamat"
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
I don't want them to apologise for the MSQ or grovel or any silly rubbish like that but I REALLY need a solid heads-up as to how the story will be developed and managed by a proper writing and editing system/team going forward. How they will ensure 7.0 never happens again.

Current expansion MSQ skip potion. With all new MSQ without Wuk Lamat anywhere in it.
At this point, even if they were to acknowledge any discontent, I wouldn't believe a word out of Yoshi's mouth. He can say, "Please look forward to it" as much as he wants but it may as well just be, "Please stop asking." I'm really tired of their non-committal responses to valid criticism. Asking people to be patient only means something if the previous requests for patience actually paid off. By the way, it's been 5 years since viera and hroth released. We still don't have promised special unique hairstyles to make up for lack of hats, and they are releasing and designing entirely new gear sets that still aren't wearable by at least 1/3 of their playable races. I also still cannot use hair and gear that I purchased with money off of the Mogstation and Hroth still have to pay for fantasia if they want a different unique hairstyle because it's still tied to their faces.

Pretty much. Too many lies, met with "But spaghetti code!" after they fail to do what they told us. It was old expansions ago, now it's ancient enough that it's turned into dust.At this point, even if they were to acknowledge any discontent, I wouldn't believe a word out of Yoshi's mouth.

Yoshida shared some thoughts about this during Endwalker's years.Honestly? I have no idea how they would solve this. I myself am a person who, if I had to create a character in the game today and someone told me I would have to reach level 100, but that wouldn't be enough because there would be about 5000(not a real number) quests ahead that can't be skipped, I would simply give up on the game immediately.
I already felt quite alone when I started playing in SB. Until I reached the maximum level, I kept hearing my friends gathering to do content that I didn't have access to, and as soon as I finished the MSQ, my friends had already stopped playing (luckily I met new ones within the game). And that was in SB; I can only imagine how this same situation would be in DT.

The "skip don't skip" dillemma is a problem they created when deciding not to actually start the next expansion without dragging all the Scions along.
It was always going to be a problem. Most people would not reccomend new players skip Shadowbringers and Endwalker and the whole first arc to play Dawntrail. Basically just creating a whole new game without the characters people are attached to would just alienate older players and very few new players would take advantage of it. (New players who will probably be told to play Shadowbringers and then eventually get to Dawntrail and also find all the people they like are gone now!) In my opinion, it's an idea a lot of players throw around that I think just doesn't work in reality.Yoshida shared some thoughts about this during Endwalker's years.
