FFXIV Healer Strike and the 'How would you fix it?' line

[Aviatorhead]

Not talking about it shows people lost interest, and the goal become to build back that interest into the role.
Right now people plays healers, make suggestion about improving them, so everything is buisness as usual.

When people lost interest into the whole tanking role, the devs made sure to make it attractive.

If they had plans on making healers better, they would have communicated about it already or at least tried some stuff like they do for other jobs.

For now and until atleast 8.0, nothing will be done for healers because the numbers shows "it's good enought" thats the sad reality of the situation.

nah. I wholeheartedly disagree here. Yes it shows disinterest in the role, but there isn't a world where having no feedback to work off of is better than having written words from the player to tell you what they think of your product.

Talking about this is 1000% better than just shutting up and hoping one day square decides to do something. Talking about healing being unfun isn't going to horseshoe around and convince the devs that actually people DO like healing, just because people are talking about it.

I already agreed with you that not playing healer is a good way to get the dev attention. But talking about it too is always going to be leagues better than staying silent, even if the devs don't read the stuff posted here themselves.

Never said talking about it would made it morse by itself, just showed that combined to keep playing healers was.
Beside that, since the devs don't care, beside venting, years have proven it was basicly useless.

You do you, just know it's not helping.
