Mog talk interview(PVP Info)

Naoki Yoshida: I completely understand that it would be better for advanced PvP players to be able to use full chat functions. However, the data clearly shows that a greater number of new players have joined the content after we removed chat functions—this is a fact that we cannot dispute. From this, we can tell how much harsh language was becoming an impediment to new players and hurting their participation. I believe that this change is something that is inevitable not only for FFXIV, but for all PvP games. On the other hand, it might be good to bring back full chat functions for custom matches and random 4 vs 4 practice matches, outside of ranked matches, as it would allow for players to discuss and develop deeper strategies. It is possible to separate chat functions between ranked matches and practice matches, so it would be great if we can continually receive feedback on this!

My feedback is to bring normal chat back. This connection is so.. THIS:

GERO! came out the same time as quick chat if I remember correctly, plus SB release and the new PvP changes OFC THERE IS GOING TO BE INCREASED participation!!! A new expansion increases activity in everything, you even see it in MB sales. I am sure WT helped a bit as well. Even though I hate the no chat, ill do a WT feast match because it is quick and rather do that then a 24 man no one queues for, or whatever.


So this



Yep, it did nothing to change the toxicity, I would argue it is worse now because you can't tell people what can be done to change a loss to a win.

Short term carrots on stick does not reflect long term trends.

Get RID of quick chat and put back normal chat. Worst decision I ever seen for a video game

Edit it popped, 250 mins later, and won fast can we had 3 brds, lol job balance is fine I am sure (sarcasm)
Only waited that long cuz i actually forgot about it as I was doing other things, so when it did pop, was a shock.
