Poll Booth

[Lambdafish]

I just started playing the new mobile version of the old MMO RuneScape that recently got released, and in that game they have a feature that I feel that XIV sorely needs.

If you go to the bank in that game there is a poll booth that you can interact with that the developers use to gather feedback from the players. Questions will be asked such as "Should this questline be added to the game", and "How should this piece of content be added to the game?", Where the players will vote yes or no, and the communities response being public information.

Naturally these questions are too impactful to be replicated entirely across to XIV (I should add that this is also the legacy build of the game), but I think that having a poll booth in-game that allows developers to get an idea of player reactions to content announced in live letters, and content that has just been released (and for the playerbase to know how everyone else feels about certain features) is only a good thing, and will prevent vocal minorities from projecting narratives and give a very clear picture of what the community at large wants

I forgot about that feature in old school runescape but I think it would be a nice feature to have in ff14.

I’d be down for it if “should we delete general discussion?” Was a question. That’d be the best polling question ever.

It makes a lot of sense in RuneScape. RS3 changed a lot about the game, including an evolved combat system that effectively killed the game by driving the playerbase away. This seems like a step to make sure that they know what the players want, and to self moderate their design decisions to make sure that the game isnt ruined again. Hmm... Some would say the XIV devs have a habit of not listening to the playerbase and making decisions that goes against what the playerbase wants... Hmm...

"Should we continue with Eureka?"

"Should we continue with any form of Diadem?"

SE would leave out the "No" option as though it were inconceivable. =p

You make jokes, but this is actually the exact kind of question that should be asked. The Devs seem to not know what the community wants in regards to exploratory content, so flat out asking "should we not do exploratory content" is a good thing

See, the best jokes are based on the truth.
