The Devs need a much needed thanks!

[MonsutaMan]

I will thank thank them when they kill off limited jobs and allow BLU to do stuff like....I don't know, complete the main scenario?

That will never happen, so I will never be nice in terms of their development, or lack thereof.

I mean would it be so bad if they could do MSQ up until the end of Stormblood?

I give them my thanks by staying subscribed.

I'm all for praising them when they deserve it, as well as criticizing them when it is needed. To be honest though, it seems like a thread like this pops up every time there's some drama over a recent development decision, so it makes me wonder what the intention is.

The intention is to praise the best mmo dev team in the industry. I think that is obvious. I agree with the op wholeheartedly. We need more of these posts. Enough of all the negative vomit that is prevalent in this forum. I am not interested in your incoming replies telling me how important it is for you to spew garbage. I don't care.

Boot lickers always brainwashed into thinking this game is perfect

This game is amazing, but it could be better, so we will complain until it is better

You know, I was about to be witty, but you just took the words right out of my mouth, sis! Almost as if what you have to say is just as garbage!

No one gives two flying dodos about your toxic positivity

Just as much as people shouldn't care about being toxic.

If there are things to praise, we praise 'em.
If there are things to criticise, we criticise 'em.
Simple as.

If you think that's garbage, well... sucks to be you I guess, Ms Shillsalot. It's not like what you're saying's doesn't reek either.

The devs should be praised when they do good work. They should also be criticized when something goes wrong. Fair is fair.

Would be far more useful if people could be reasonable and adult about it instead of the standard "small indie company devs don't care about EN" rhetoric, but that's anonymous social media for ya.

Here's one issue I have. It's a big one and it's kinda gonna be a long post. I'll see if I can TL;DR the end.

People LOVE to complain but hate to praise. This is fact. You see it everywhere and it's SO common you will never even take notice of it. Want proof? Look at any review of any game, restaurant, retail store, etc...and see how many times a review is in short "I go here all the time and things have been fine and I like the place and blah blah blah but I had one bad experience because of reasons. 1 star.

It happens...a LOT. Question for people...be honest. How many times have you had a pretty good experience and left a review? How many times have you had a bad experience and left a review? That said...I've seen it happen so many times where people will literally only review a place if they have that one bad experience. COuld have 100s of good experience but hey...they got my money right? That's all the thanks they need. Hell I've seen MANY people on the forums say "My thanks is the fact I'm subbed". Here's the problem...let me draw up a scenario.

You work in retail. You are doing your very best and give 100% maximum effort and things are great. Did they give you a good review? No. The money spent is thanks. That goes to the company and not the workers.

Now...same scenario. You work your ass off. Maximum effort. They complain and whine they didn't get things THEIR way. They leave a negative review. Guess what the boss sees? That negative review. You're fired. Should have done better.

But hey...when you do good they support by paying money right? The boss does not see that. That's suppose to happen. They don't see you working your ass off.

TL;DR

Boss man doesn't see you doing a good job just cause people spend money at the store. That is to be expected. When people start whining though...they are SO QUICK to voice their complaints...and boss man sees that and thinks you are terrible.

Despite this last week and the amount of flak that they received, they work extremely hard to bring us a game that is much loved and enjoyed. The amount of hate I have seen this past week because a class can't do 1% more damage is absurd in the slightest, but then again that is only less than 2% of the community most likely complaining. Those that are complaining are the ones that have zero ideal what they are talking about and are only outcrying what their favorite streamer is telling them to outcry.

Again: Thank you Devs for bringing us an amazing game. I know mistakes are made, we are all human and you all do your best to fix it. I look forward to seeing what you bring in 6.25 and 6.3.

When SE deserves my thanks, I shall give them my thanks. When they deserve my scorn, they shall receive it.

SE released a savage tier that was overtuned and has job balance so screwed up that certain jobs have immense difficulties clearing while others can clear with multiple damage downs. They fixed the first half. This is not an overall beneficial thing as P8S never should have been overtuned in the first place. I will not thank them for fixing their own error. In addition, they have decided to punish a player who worked around SE's poorly designed systems, then deigned to fix them themselves after punishing said player.

SE is currently undeserving of my thanks. They can earn that.

If there are things to praise, we praise 'em.
If there are things to criticise, we criticise 'em.

Exactly. SE, if you want my praise, do things that would earn my praise.
