Why is there so much QQing?

[MeowyWowie]

Why does everyone rage when they get what they asked for? You all knew this was coming, SE said it multiple times.

We asked for:

Public Companies
Player Housing
Mail System
Delivery System
NEW GRAPHICS ENGINE
Overhauled UI
Chocobos
Battle Chocobos
Additional Mounts
Completely Redone Maps
New Races
Class Balancing
Titles and Achievements
Revamped Crafting Recipes
More FF in FFXIV
ETC.. ETC.. ETC...

We're getting:

SE said a long time ago that they will start charging once they have a road map ready, we all knew this. We got the road map, and they kept their promise.

We're getting exactly what we asked for, and exactly what we were told we would be getting. Man up and accept it.

We realize time is of the essence and are fully determined to provide our customers with quality service. It is because of this that we ask our customers to be patient until we are able to confidently present them with a concrete plan outlining FINAL FANTASY XIV's new direction. The free trial period will be extended until that time.

Their "road map" takes 1/60th of the average human lifespan to implement.

I'm not willing to pay for a half finished lego building.

Because they are poor and lose the meaning of life if they can't play FFXIV for free.

They promised us stuff. That's worth as much as the words on the paper. We haven't seen any evidence of this except a singular screenshot that could be post-processed out the ass.

Having a road-map and living up to expectations and deadlines is a whole nother' thing.

I thought they said they'd charge when they felt it was worthwhile, when they could say its a game. It is clearly not by the rage on these forums and everyones agreeing v2 is when it is wortwhile.

Added quote and source. We all knew this way back in December.

Then people will say it's "not a game and they shouldn't be charging now" -- Whining is an endless cycle.

They are trying to offset some of their massive losses by charging a nominal fee per month. Either pay it or don't. If you pay it, it's a show of your faith in the company to deliver something good in the future more than anything.

And while you may not feel that the current level of content is enough to justify the monthly fee, a fair number of people do. It's time to agree to disagree and move on with your life, Viion.

Huh? Im paying, I dont really want to, but I will.....I probably wont even play because I will be hooked on another game at the time, but I will be paying. bet your a lil confused and just shows how invalid some situations are.

If people dont think its a good time to pay, let them express that because square enix need to know. They dont want to lose people. Losing more subs is the reason it went F2P to begin with.

I honestly dont get why people complain about others peoples post when Yoshi and SE constantly ask us for our opinion. Makes no sense.

[WinnipegJet]

Well that's contrary to what you posted in a different thread. Still, for some reason you show a real lack of understanding what you and other people are paying for.
