I mean, this here was a good way to talk to us.

For the first time in FFXIV, upcoming job adjustments were talked about in a blog post. And players had a chance to give feedback to what was planned. This was a good thing, overall, and interestingly enough, most feedback I have read on the forum was more constructive.

The method is good - announce something like that, have the forums discuss it, and have community managers aggregate player feedback to forward to the dev team.

In terms of Viper, there was no criticism about the job design as it was, it was mostly praise that Square Enix build the job well, and to not change it. Yoshi-P even acknowledges this. Its frustrating when the devs open a dialogue like that, only to ignore our feedback.

Alternatively, SqEx could also just... make ingame polls, and ask for players opinions there.
