"Just wait until *insert next patch*!"

So let me get this right. People hate the state of xiv rn. They complain everyday to no avail (according to them). They claim the devs aren't listening yet they still continue to complain despite (according to them) being ignored. This means they are wasting their time per their own admittance. Others step in n try to explain the maybe it's best you leave if you're not getting what you want to send a message. These people are called gatekeepers n white knights (wrongfully mind you). They continue to complain and the cycle continues. They continue to pay to be upset n ignore the fact they are indeed funding what they don't like (which no sane human would do). Even going so far as to a pay for a game they aren't playing just to talk in the forums which as we said earlier amounts to a waste of time. So they're paying to waste their time once again...

Tell me...how tf do yall justify that? Cause that makes no sense to me and is why some people clown on you guys.


(I'll say it again from a previous thread. Money makes companies listen far more than words. If words aren't working then next step is obvious...well I guess not so obvious here.)

assuming you started in 2019, then you are a new player compared to me.

So listen, vast amount of types of players complained and complained, just like you are describing and they actually led to some consideration and changes to the game.

So of these complainers got the game to where it is - so we can agree complaining can lead to change in the game, to me a lot of of this was for the worse for the game.

Some of us or rather many are not happy so we are voicing a complaint to get things changed because its actually happened in the past.

If you are new to the game, then you would of entered into the game whilst the changes already happened and not felt them as much as me and a few others have done.

So tell me this, to those that complained years ago and got their wishes implemented in some way, what do you say to that?

What makes you think they don't complain enough to eventually quit? People that are passionate about something they've been a part of for a very long time are likely to be more vocal. Same thing happened with WoW.

I'm not saying they're ALL going to quit obviously. But I'm bored enough to let my other 2 alt accounts lapse. Might even reduce my Retainers and Account Type to just let it sit and hold onto the house. And I know my gf doesn't want to play anymore but we share a house, so her sub is going to lapse too.
