Final Fantasy XIV is failing so much... that they're hiring :D

[Darkshade]

Man OP, I seriously was just adding what I thought was a possibility. We really have no realistic idea how large or small the XIV development team are, or what the working conditions are like. I imagine it isn't re-enforcing coming to work everyday working on a game that might be on a chopping block in the future and has some of the worst review scores for a AAA MMO in a long while. Yes I'd like the game to succeed because I'm a huge fan of SE's previous works but I'm not going to pretend it's all sunshine and butterflies.

These new employees might just be replacements for ones who walked.

Personally, I don't think i could work beneath Yoshida.

"So guys, new rule. Everything you ever did is crap until I showed up. So from now on I want you to oversimplify the crafting system you guys worked so hard on.

Remove collision detection you worked so hard on

Remove mob behaviours

And finally enlarge all the mobs to ridiculous, unintended proportions. Thanks."


I would hate him.

I'm not saying I do, I'm just saying I would if I had made an MMO and then he came in and told all my colleagues to scrap half the game "just because".
