Thank you XIV Dev Team!

Oh how cute... You made something completely stupid up, and put in qoutes like I said it. What are you 5 years old?

Are you? You're the one who can't seem to comprehend that people have a different opinion than you do.

Personally, I loved every single thing the keynote had to offer. Hrothgar are something I've wanted in this game since launch, and the direction of dancer looks awesome. Also no male viera means I won't have to see very many of them as someone who detests the race, so that's also a plus. But I am sorry for people who were looking forward to it.

I'm genuinely on cloud nine I'm so happy. Or is this just fake butt kissing to you because it's a different opinion? How about you move on now instead of trying to derail the topic?

Did you know what the word hypocrite means? Just wow... You talk about respecting ppls opinion, expect anyone that dosen' t like what's in the new expansion. And their just negative and aren't allowed post according to you.. Stop harassing me and other players that every right to comment here on things they disagree with... Half the stuff you're trying to say, you're just making up.

And you best not ever again make up a fake qoute, and post it like I was the one that originally wrote it

I WAS planning on switching to Viera, but then they said no. However I’m so glad that you could get what you wanted even though many of us are completely disappointed.

Well that's the thing. When Ronso were hinted at, I immediately hoped I could make a female one as she would fit another particular story character of mine perfectly. Especially if I could give her dreadlocks. Oh, one can dream.

However, when it was revealed there weren't any female Ronso, I didn't get angry. When they revealed Dancer was DPS, I also didn't get angry. I don't look at this game (or any other) as one I specifically own. I am not a developer. I didn't create it. Sure, I can give suggestions and voice my opinion, but at the end of the day - we the consumers are not privy to what the developers have in mind. This is their game, their story. All we can do is voice our concerns and - if it's in their power - hope they can acknowledge said concerns.

I do hope female Ronso (and sure why not, male Viera) eventually come around. It could potentially happen. We don't know the future. However, I'm not going to blast Squeenix, Yoshi-P, Shadowbringers, or FFXIV in general for this particular decision. Hell I'm just as happy staying Miqo'te. It's both a big deal and not to me. Sounds weird but at my age I just don't really have the desire to get angry over everything that doesn't perfectly go my way. (not saying you are; just giving my personal opinion). Give me a good, fun game. Explain your decisions. Do those things, and I'm happy. So far, seems that's exactly what they're doing.

I feel like people seem to think every "negative" decision devs make is to spite them. Not at all. In a perfect world I'm positive they'd give us everything we want. Happy customers = more money after all. But this isn't a perfect world. Technical difficulties can occur. Too much manpower needed in too little time. Remember - this expansion isn't just the new races and the new class. And I do vaguely remember Yoshi himself stating it can take upwards to a year to get just one new job from the drawing board to the game. And I'm positive races can be just as if not more complicated.

So when I take all of that into account - I just can't get "angry". I have no real reason to.

@FoxyAreku Ignore them. I got curious and looked at their posts. The vast majority of them is bashing people that are enjoying the game. They're just trying to flamebait. Not even worth acknowledging.

Man, everything you say is just a hypocritical statement. You come in here bashing people who are happy, calling it fake, and then when the tables turn on you and you get called out you say we're the ones doing that? Lol. Get out of here.

Yeah, I'm done with them.

I had some disappointments like a lot of people, but one small thing barely anyone noticed just completely made the expansion for me - Minifilia is available as a "trust" NPC. :3

[Ramesses]
