When is Square Enix going to start taking the state of the game seriously?

Well our LS have gone back to FFXI now and will on login to FFXIV for leve runs.

SE are however taking the state of the game very seriously I believe, re-shuffle of staff, admittance that the game is not satisfactory, not charging us to play.

However I believe current players are not the primary focus for them. They are obviously working on big changes to the core mechanics which we will see but as for content they will drip feed us as little as they have to and save as much as they can for the PS3 launch/re-launch of the game.

There is no point in them giving us anything as they have lost to many players already, they will just give us core fixes and then launch on the PS3 with an expansion (one I hope we get for free) and then build hype and interest from there.

We are not asking for content or updates, we are asking for INFOS.
The current playing base is taken for granted, like if we are playing right now we'll do it no matter what... totally false.
Personally I enjoy the game as it is, but since I know there are gonna be major changes I want to know if I will like the game even after all the patches or if I should give up now.
And I guess it's the same for those not playing, everyone wants to know what we are gonna get after the whole re-design.

Com on, we know more things about games that are still on development, why can't we have a clue about what we are playing right now?...
