SE, the dev team needs some more resources.

They could have also just outright disabled headgear instead of Busting their butts to try and make Some of it work. Im happy that we at least got Something instead of nothing at all.
And now, they can work on improving it.

I have faith in this team, despite what goes wrong, ALOT more goes right.

Yes, those people did on so their off hours, on their own accord and deserve a bonus for it. I had faith in Square Enix in the 2010 and was rewarded with 1.0. Success can lead to arrogance and in business arrogance can lead to failure. There is nothing wrong call out a successful team; it keeps them humble, grounded, and hungry.

I think this is something a lot of people don't get. I swear to god you all come across as a bunch of Azulas. This one thing goes wrong and it's the end of the world. Complain and they will fix it but it will take time.

Though he was talking about why FFXIV 1.0 Failed that statement hold true to all game development. Fallout 76, No Man's Sky, Anthem, Mass Effect Andromeda

Nobody said they can't be called out. And looking at that picture....how else do you fix a problem other then patching it later?

I believe the point of that line is more about development and fixing issues BEFORE they go live rather than pushing a buggy mess out the door with the idea you can just patch the bugs later. Obviously some bugs are missed and make it through, but when your testers are telling you about things that are wrong, and you ignore them and push the content out anyways with all those bugs you were aware of still there, well that's a problem.

You have the assets available to make sure you have a successful product and you don't release the product until it's ready. The question shouldn't be how you fix the problem other than patching it later but rather why wasn't the problem fixed before Shadowbringers was launched?

It's not a question of assets. It's a question of time. And, believe it or not, the market rewards timely releases far more than quality. If you knew this issue was going to exist prior to buying the expansion, would you still have bought it? I believe the answer is yes.
