    I 100% understand why people jump to this conclusion, as it seems like this is something that should not have happened

    But it is possible to thoroughly test something only to have a completely unforeseen thing come along

    As far as MMORPGs go, FFXIV is not typically a game prone to major bugs. While its entirely possible that something slipped by that should have been caught with an appropriate amount of testing, there isn't concrete evidence of this.

    And even if it is the case, if they properly fix it, give people their right lottery results, and most importantly ensure this isnt a pattern of severe bugs then its not a big deal.

    I don't think blaming the frustrated people is the way to go. I think that just adds to it. (No, I did not try to get a house this round.) I just think this speaks to the fact that housing situation in general needs a huge overhaul.

    Pick a side, are you an “UwU Devs Work Hard” softboi or are you a toxic individual with no spine?
    They are both in my opinion.

    From what I hear, it was Japanese customers who sent actual knives with threats to the devs. Maybe learn a second language and go remind them to cool off.

    One thing to keep in mind is that feedback and comments made to developers aren't exclusively posted within, or on social media, but can be through a variety of outlets. Yoshida has already in the past commented about developer harassment.

    Whilst this doesn't outright state death threats, the community on this forum was pretty universal in thought that it was eluding to such. Perhaps out of genuine fact, or to try and excuse/detract from their own abrasive comments in the past.

    i almost wish for the days when autoexec.bat and config.sys were the only things we had to battle to make a game work.

    I am new to posting here and I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for this but I feel its necessary to be said regardless. I've seen quite a lot of heated discussions about the player housing situation and a few other past events where players have felt slighted or in some way inconvenienced and overwhelmingly people have been voicing their frustrations in a way that seems a tad overkill. Frustration is one thing but calling devs names or being hysterical about this or any situation does nothing but cause real people to be stressed out. I know we often laud the dev team and Yoshi-P especially but the opposite can be true too. Very bi-polar which is to be expected from such a large MMO audience.

    I hope people who read this can voice their frustrations more gently and constructively in the future. I'm sorry you were inconvenienced but this is a game that you enjoy and its a career that game devs slave at to make. the disparity between our commitments is immeasurable. They want to make the best game they can and believing otherwise is foolish. I don't mean this to be another "praise Yoshi-P!" post so please understand that I just think our collective voices when compounded have a very drastic effect on real people and we should act accordingly.

    TL;DR stop being mean pls
    There are plenty of us who are trying our best to be constructive in our criticism, but as someone new, you also need to understand just how long we've been waiting for this fiasco they just sprung on us. Content has become quite lackluster, and they are only giving us a mere fraction of what they've provided in the past. If you had been here all along, you'd see a company that's now trying to cut corners and alienate a large portion of their player base, all while raking in record profits from their largest subscriber base ever. In other words, we've been told to bend over and take it without any lube when they renigg on their promises and fail to deliver the paid-for amount of content.

    Take it with a grain of salt. A lot of us are about to give SE the boot if they don't get it together. We aren't getting what we're paying for. It's business, and nothing personal.

    We're on instance 20 or so.

    It seems like almost every time they try to introduce a new "system" they screw it up relatively badly. Now is that on the developers or the QA/QC testers> Probably a mix of both. but ultimately it's on the developers themselves.
    When it comes to housing, what do you expect? It is an issue that has never been resolved due to not being able to accommodate player demand. It was not an issue when the amount of wards and plots exceeded the demand for them, and this will continue to be an issue until FFXIV's growth reaches its peak. In fact, the insatiable demand for housing is a testament to the game's popularity. When the time comes (and it will come) that plots are readily available again, we will know FFXIV's popularity is over the hill. Kinda scary to think about that, isn't it?

    Again, I will point out the insurmountable pressure this dev team is under, and how easily players fail to acknowledge that they alone are the ones responsible for said pressure. Before EW was even released during a LL Q&A, Yoshi was already asked about a residential district in Sharlyan. You think the person who submitted that question gave the livelihoods of the dev team even a single thought? Can you blame his face palm reaction to that? Want to guess why he face palmed so hard? It's because that question immediately turned into the next demand that falls right into his boss' ears, who will then apply that pressure to Yoshi and Co. Just like that.

    The availability of plots and wards is one thing, then trying to develop a system where everyone has a fair chance to own some land is a whole other animal. What's the answer? Do you have it? Should multiple players in an FC be allowed to register? Is it fair that they give up their chance to own a private estate by doing so if they don't have one? If a player already owns a private estate, should they be allowed to enter for their FC? What about showing the number of participants? How good of an idea is that? There are pros and cons to this too isn't there? What kind of shady pressure that players are uncomfortable with is happening within any given FC in order to obtain a house? Tell me my fellow compatriot, how would you implement this system in a way that is in recompense, fair for everyone, and without consequence?

    I just don‘t understand what this has to do with the complaints recently? They have been pretty civil so far. It is clear people are fed up with some of the decisions SE has made, and as long as these complaints are constructive there is no problem. However, there seems to be a hive mentality within people within this community that equals constructive criticism with wishing death upon the devs. It seems like they want to nip every complaint in the bud. It kind of reminds me of „There is no war in Ba sing se“.
