Honesty Time - How do you feel about FFXIV?

You guys don't actually expect that this is the pace they're going to be keeping, do you?

All these little fixes we're getting right now are the things that they've thus far finished. If you'll direct yourselves to the first Letter From The Producer, you'll see that Yoshi mentioned that he and the newly reshuffled team were only about 30% complete(excluding any additions) with all the stuff they're currently working on. Things like companies, the new battle changes(however cringe-worthy they may be), and whatever big other additions to his constantly updated list aren't things that are gonna be done in a few weeks. We're gonna be seeing the fruits of their labor during spring/summer. These small updates are hardly indicators of what's on the horizon.

Personally, I was pretty excited about the things the game's website were promising, but I still tried to keep objective about what was being promised, and what we might get. I was dissapointed with the release, it could have been handled better. As far as gameplay and content, it was about what I had expected, despite the bugs. The main storyline sounds like it was well written, and I'm interested in finding out what happens next. Overall, the game has more than it's share of flaws, but they are being addressed.

I think they suffered from Real Time Worlds syndrome (thinking the game would be so awesome at launch that they failed to see all of the problems), the big difference is that they have the money and a new team to fix it.
