Out of touch? PLL

[Sotaris]

You felt the need to reply to my initial comment. That's proof something I said triggered you enough. If you are 100% ok with the game then that comment wasn't for you.



The fix is simply, devs should make the game the way they want to make it and not listen too much to the forums. Let people decide if they want to play or not. Creativity in XIV has died largely due to negative feedback from the forums.

Majority forum feedback is not constructive, and the few threads that have been started with good premise devolve quickly into another cesspool as the bad actors flood in with their holier than thou opinions.

The only driving force of XIV should be their engagement numbers. If that's their version of "fine" then, nothing needs to be changed. If they want more direct feedback, they should send out surveys that hit all of the playerbase to see what's the opinion of anything, and if you see that nothing has changed than that's your key to understand the majority are ok with what already is.

How do you expect the game to improve? Do you think they didn't collect feedback in the 90s for the older games?

As I said, they can get their feedback via surveys to the entire playerbase. Getting feedback directly from the forums, from people that don't consider far reaching consequences to their suggestions, only generally has lead to more negative outcomes. The few times they actually implemented based off negative feedback here, we just got less.

See MSQ content battle nerfs
See class homogenization
See the missing "bozja" in EW.

Then after they change anything, either the same or new complainers go off on the change itself. There is no winning with this playerbase. They would do better and be more original by doing their own thing, the same thing that has brought them to success in the first place.

You can't satisfy a group of people hellbent on nitpicking every part of the game.

Basically but if course the people that spend their lives here are going to say otherwise. For example the person saying they are going to unsub because they don't cater to their needs.. it's the same fucking content but they just decided to add some new content. For all we know it can be just below extreme level of difficulty.
