This thread does not present an accurate picture of all gamers. In fact, this entire forum is heavily biased to favor SE and the outdated design philosophies that were present in FFXI.

I'm agreed with you here. I was excited about the new official forum, but by only allowing the people who were patient enough to put up with how FF14 has played for this long (which, according to unofficial measurements is only a fraction of those who were interested in how FF14 looked even in its worse days) they are going to get a bad idea of what they need to do to attract more players. Many of the people who are posting on here are extremely stubborn former FFXI players who are stuck in 2004, but this game needs to not only be up to industry standards but set new ones.
