You can't "lock" something that doesn't exist.

Viera and Ronso in FF lore have distinguished genders. That's the problem people have. End of discussion.

thats false lol
Ronso had a large amount of female fighters and blitzball players in fact in ff10-2 you can get one of them through taming

so nice try there but thats purely a lie

also vierra do have males you dont see them often but they do exist and lore with them can be twitched 2 exiled from the forest

Gender lock used in the way to be described as locked out from male Viera/female Hrothgar is wrong
Gender lock used in the way to be described as being locked in to female Viera/male Hrothgar is correct
what's the difference locked out implies there is another option there you just can't use it, locked in implies that is the only option and asking for removal in this case is asking for another option to be added.

See semantics is fun and the English language is so easy to know every meaning right :P

i mean if they don't got enough manpower they should hire more peopl

So simple! Why didn't SE think of that? Just hire more people! ..... you are kidding right? You do know companies have overhead costs, limited space, limited funding etc.... If you don't, I want to live in your fantasy world.

You just reiterated my point. Thanks friend.

Or did you think I was implying that Viera and Ronso were Female and Male only respectively?

I am laughing at you. Very hard.

acturally its simple math and logic

okay best server is around 20-30k cash x lets say q per database

nxt the software is around 1-10k depending how they did it
the ppl maybe make 32-35 a hour

so lets say xiv start up project was around 600k total

now take into account turn ins
15-30 dollar month sub depend on retainers u got
70 inital buy
and then mogstation randoms/name/data/server changes
so around add that up x the number of players
so lets say total income amount into the game is around 1.7million -2million is a pretty good estimate

so maybe you should stop believing what companys tell you its usually a lie lol

So let's add to that :


* Shareholders cut
* Taxes
* Maintenance costs for buildings, office, salaries, equipment, licenses, software, propetaria rights
* hosting costs (our company pays 80k a month on AWS alone)


so maybe you should get some experience on how a company works?

Money is not the only issue ... they may not have the space, may not have the funding to provide space or another salary for a new person, they may not have gotten good enough applicants, the list goes on. The only people that know that answer is SE themselves. Suggesting that they did not already think of hiring a new person is a ludicrous thought. That is most likely the first thing they thought about.

Actually, Yoshida's department hiring people since 1st April. ツ　Not necessarily for FFXIV tho since they work on other projects as well.
