Forgive me for being a little unsure with how SE has handled feedback in the past. Pointing out what we don’t like is literally part of giving feedback while stuff is still being developed, aka, the best time for it. That's not doom and gloom, it’s just me explaining my concerns. Doom and gloom would be acting like the job is ruined forever and the game is going to die if this doesn't get changed. I'm not doing that. Stop pretending anything that isn't blind praise is dooming or hating on the game.

It's not doom and gloom, its voicing the concerns in one of the few moments when they may actually matter.

Whm did absolutely not look well, position management is gone with the instant, seems like the focus on GCD heals will kill any resource management, it has lost offensive actions that broke the monotony of the 1 button spam and even lillies seem to be a downgrade from the current version.

I fear for the rest of healers if they somehow found a way to make Whm worse

Man, I wonder if people also tell ppl to shut up when they first introduced stormblood lily pre-StB and StB launch. See how that fares?

Okok, I wonder where are those people who tells healers to ‘just wait they will give you more depth!’ in early ShB. See how that fares today?

*cough*

At some point people need to admit & see that it’s just PR & devsplaining. Given that happened not just once or twice by now, it’s hard to be optimistic this time around. It could be different at launch. But I’m not holding my breath.

We’re playing Physical Ranged with free heals & that’s that, until reality proves us wrong. Even the dreaded basic joke model of Glare + Holy + Super Cure + Super Medica + Sprint + Raise/LB with cast time is looking more appealing now, and that’s saying a lot about the current & upcoming design.

Remember when Yoshida said they weren't taking pre-release concerns about 4.0 lilies seriously because they would work perfectly and we would love them? Remember when they confidently removed Energy Drain from SCH and then added it back almost immediately because, again, the pre-release concerns were correct? There's zero reason to trust CS3's judgment when it comes to healers.

No, we will give feedback while they're in development mode so things can change for the better
It's not doom and gloom. It's feedback, and they should take it while they've still got 8 months to cook.

They wouldn't show off jobs in such a unfinished state if they weren't looking for feedback
