We need better comunication with the Community team

[Vstarstruck]

I do wonder what their reasons are for not having more communication and more regional communication to cater to the differences in internet culture. Are they gunshy because of how impulsive players are with their feedback? Is it out of necessity to reduce miscommunication because the imaginations of players gets out of hand so quickly which inevitably leads to disappointment. (look at every piece of content released that has had any forewarning to its playerbase) Is ita language barrier? Could it be lack of staff? Lack of interest in communication? Trying to keep things secret so other companies dont take their ideas?

But most of that has nothing to do with responding to feedback on current content or suggestions at improving the content. I dont envy anyone in the public eye like this, I couldnt imagine seeing a constant stream of anger and frustration at something you worked hard on.

do you feel I answered your question in full now?

Now this is my personal view, I do not know how true it is, but I really think the root is arrogance. I feel this lead to the flop of FFXIV 1.0 as well. "People will buy it no matter what we do, so lets make the cheapest route" Basically they know having FF name alone can carry far because of the long established playerbase. I do hope this mindset became questioned though, with the blacklash of FFXV by some, and more and more people speaking out on the ffxiv's repeat treadmill, not even trying to deviate from it.

Remember this is my personal view, I have no proof, I am not trying to insult, but I really do think they depend on "blind following" SE say "we make it new and innovative *releases something* People take it as new and innovating because SE said so, no matter what was done.
