Square Enix and Crypto

If the money they get from NFTs lets them buy better servers and fix the random crashes with the game then GO SE! show those furries how it's done!

they have the money, as an fyi, and don't kid yourself, none of the nft money would see the XIV team's budget in your lifetime

This is honestly the most short sighted take i've seen on this in a while, the hardware chip shortage started due to Crypto and you want them to implement it into the game to... fix it? lmao

People that decided to invest in their business produced a shortage while the people that didn't invest in their business faced the consequences by the time they realised they should have invested?

THE SHOCK

e: explain to me how NFT investors are at fault that SE didn't upgrade their servers a long while ago if they already had the money to do so.

I'm gonna jot you down as a troll and ignore everything you say from this point on if you think Monopoly money is a "business" or that it isn't obscenely wasteful and destructive to the environment, have fun when the bubble pops picking up the pieces ♥

Clearly you've not seen images of the massive server farms used to mine crypto, which increases scarcity and contributes to SE's inability to procure new servers.

NFTs & blockchain = unsustainable
NFTs & blockchain = unacceptable

The second they hit FF14 I'm unsubbing.

are you for real? how old are you? FF14 is not some small game. its was one of the big 5 for years and now its number 1 mmo. they got the cash to do what ever the game need they just don't wan to. more cahs wont make them as well. but this will make people leave the game. most people dont want to play a pyramid scheme. if some want they can build a new game base don it. or just do crypto scams.

imagine yoshida putting nfts into xvi, knowing theyre part of the reason we dont have enough xiv servers

[DezereDawn]

that whole letter is just drenched in slime and sleaze to be honest, especially the part where he puts "those who play to have fun" in quotes and acts like they're a problem, Square enix is honestly sad outside of CBU3 in my eyes.

Unfortunately, while the FF14 team is really great and I think they are doing a fantastic job, Square Enix is an awful company. Look at the products they have put out over the past 10 years... FF13 had two sequels that no one wanted. FF15 was an unfinished disaster with loads of DLC that was required to understand wth was going on in the main story. FF7 remake is 15 hours of gameplay... and then there is the FF7 battle royal...

SE has been putting their focus on cash grabs for years now. I'm sure the FF14 team has no say in the addition of NFT and other micro transactions in the game. It all comes from above.
