How many are working with this game?

People sure love to cry about the game yet remain on these forums just to...I don't know not do anything else productive.

I guess this is some peoples form of wrist cutting, the ANGST of playing a developing MMO Oooooo I feels so bad it's good!

In the long run, who cares it's not like it will make the updates come any faster.

what is this i dont even.

100!? Wow. Hey, you know I usually lean towards SE's favor in most posts, but I totally did not think they had more than 12 people assigned to this project. There has to be an asterisk next to that number. Like there are 100 people working in the office and they each take a turn one day a week working on FF14. That would seem more realistic. However I would love for them to lay 1.18 on us like "BLAM" take that bitches, and have it be the 9 month columniation of 100 people's hard work in all it's glory.

It's more like 120 or so.

I can't see more than 20 working on the monthly patches though.

I'm to the point where I wish they would kill it, and give us a free pass to their next MMO and put us out of our misery.

Damn, what an addict you are.

I read somewhere that the workforce was around 50 people during development but most of those people have other roles within SE now and that there is no dedicated staff.

Assuming they didn't just furlough their art staff, I think it'd be safe to assume we should be seeing 6 months of armor/weapon/mob design fairly soon. The last time we had more than a few models added to the game was the original December NM patch.

Wow, it's been a really, really long time.

Why would we be seeing new mob designs? There's existing ones not used plus it's the same areas, they don't need to plop down new monsters for the sake of it, none of the MMOs I've played done that and I can guarantee unless they had a graphics patch the mobs that existed in the newbie area and beginners areas 3-5 years ago will still be there and nothing new. New monsters, especially in all of SE's MMOs tend to come with new areas, quest related, monster replacement and placement changes and event systems -- they never just plop down new monsters for the sake of it lol.

Also "6 months of armor/weapon" could realistically be only a couple given the detail and branch crafting of them in this game.
