Xenosys Vex explains how to save the game

[Turtledeluxe]

I'm starting to think this game is just old and SE has seen the writing on the wall, so they're doing their best to dress up the corpse and keep you all paying before sending it to pasture for FFXVIII.

People have been arguing a lot of these same issues for years and years, including Xenos. It seems obvious to me the core audience is mostly condoning the devs because they're locked into a trance of passive acceptance. It's like, "well I like the story or X other thing so I may as well defend the game". That's why when he criticizes it he is quick to say "oh but it's fine don't get rid of X thing I just insinuated is bad". Even when people criticize they have to sort of back away from the criticism bc the attack force will come to get them and also, in the back of our minds, don't we all know the team is making all the bad decisions they are making with some imaginary audience they have in mind that will sustain the game?

No one wants to believe Yoshi P and co are purposely turning the game into an autopilot Solo play disaster on purpose because not only does it mean that they are flawed but also it means even the most dedicated player is just a number.
