r/ffxivdiscussion: What can Square Enix do to help fix the terrible netcode of FFXIV?

[Arzalis]

The first step to fixing a problem is admitting there is a problem.

Unfortunately, SE adamantly insists there is no problem when this is mentioned. So I doubt this will be fixed anytime soon.

Dont worry, its going to be fixed as a key feature for the next expansion. Need a good selling point for 8.0, right?

With a focus on unnecessary details like: "Oh look how a less 0.00001 sec delay in response will do to your gameplay!" instead of focusing on making it better.

i feel like its not that the devs are lazy, its that the priorities are skewed. Sure, the engine and netcode is being held together by the engineering equivalent of Duck-tape and sticks, but look at that vista!
