About the complains..

Kind of completely stepped over the point. The dev team's situation is a little different than yours. Your relationship with the people you serve is on a very ambiguous level. Yoshi himself frequents these forums on a very regular basis. There's a big difference between the two situations. He has a direct line of communication with the people he's working for as he's working for them.

when i worked residential i did deal with customers on a personal daily basis. if you don't think, even in industrial fields, you get direct feedback on the quality of your work you are mistaken. sure the direct feedback if from one company to another instead of person to person, but the quality of your work is still under direct scrutiny.

no it's more than that. the release of xiv reminds me of when i did residential work before i went into industrial. say you have a guy come out and put a roof on your house and that roof leaks(the original release) and the company says they will come back out and fix the leak in the roof(the remake of the game). i am not going to thank the company for coming back and fixing the mistake they made in the first place while they are still working on it. they messed up the first time so the roof may still leak once it's finished.

if that company came back and got the job right the second time i may thank the company for coming back, but may not since the original was a bad job. when it comes to doing your job right you can either get it done right the first time or expect constant complaints while you are fixing the issue.
