I don't disagree with "FFXIV is amazing", in fact in spite of it's fault (of which there are many", I do think that it is - however I have to admit that whenever I see the "devs need more praise" my first reaction is - have you never watched a Live letter? I imagine that if that gets shown to the team it must get one hell of an impact.

I really do think that the FFXIV team gets quite a bit of praise, certainly far, far , far more than any development team than I've seen in my career (yes I also work in sw dvelopment). As a previous poster said- they're professionals, they certainly appreciate and benefit from praise, however praise can have more impact when it's measured.
