Is it maybe time for a full infrastructure rebuild? (Re: Database and netcode issues)

[Aylis]

I agree. They rebuilt 1.0 because it was a main title Final Fantasy game. Simply put, they did not want that blemish in the brand.

Even with its limitations, this game is not a blemish on the Final Fantasy name.

Before you get mad, I agree there are problems from the things you listed, I don’t see them redoing it again. Even if we complain.

Oh I'm not mad at all ^.^, but yeah exactly like you said, they didn't want to, or even could not let 1.0 blemish the name and had a very short time to save things. A full rebuild from scratch wouldn't have worked in that light. Despite my own personal feelings of FFXIV I can't lie, for what they had to work with, they did okay. Yeah, all the complaining and requesting in the world is never gonna change that the very soul of this games coding is still the 1.0 engine. No matter what Yoshida's vision may be. Tanaka's vision will always be at the games root. It will never be remade. They'll just spend that funding to launch another MMO. One director/producer, one vision. Not two visions clashing forever.

Oopsie!

My mad comment was really directed at the OP. I missed the call out before that line.

But, I’m glad your not mad just the same.
