My favorite part is where half the people trying to communicate their anger and disappointment towards SquareEnix' major blunder can't even communicate in proper English. Peregrine, this may surprise you but I'm a new player who just picked up my copy of Final Fantasy XIV one week ago today. This was after having read all the bad reviews and knowing what I was getting myself into because from what I've seen of the game it looked like something I was interested in trying. After my first week I can say that I am thoroughly enjoying what content the game currently has as I have not progressed excessively far from the start. SquareEnix won my subscription by putting for the effort in showing that they are currently in the process of making changes to the game, to better the overall product and improve quality and quantity of content. So, no, I don't need an apology from Naoki Yoshida for fixing something Hiromichi Tanaka is responsible for. Yoshida, and in turn SquareEnix' apology can come to myself and others in my position in the form of less talk and more action. I hope that all of the proposed fixes are made and that SquareEnix implements them all. That would be a great apology; that and another free month of play when a big patch lands.
