feedback? where?

[Asari5]

the general discussion forum is pretty much the hot spot in the forum. most people post their stuff here. feedback too.
i assume feedback with more likes have a higher chance to get read by the team... no clue if thats true.
but i've read several times from other people the general discussion isnt the right place for it. and the devs keep telling us to write feedback into the forum... but where?

where do we post feedback and where do we post ideas?

there are information, bug report and technical support sections, but none of that makes really sense for feedbacn nor ideas.
there is a feedback section.... but only for the companion-app and the website.. where is the feedback section for the game itself?

My guess is SE only reads the feedback from the Japanese players. Am I wrong? I hope so.

There are gameplay forums for specific sections of the game https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/forums/645-Gameplay and class/job forums https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...6-Classes-Jobs

That's funny because the devs have been doing to healers the opposite of the feedback that you can find on the healer forums. I highly doubt the devs read those either or the problem of healers being 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 machines with very little to heal would have been solved an expansion ago

But you are getting new damage actions! You get 1-3 button presses that arent DOT or filler... every 2min after using your obligatory buff!

You should be grateful, they listened! //unloading sarcasm.module

That's right! The entire forum is for feedback and the developers are far more likely to check the specific forums than the General forum for feedback specific to a gameplay area. Don't get me wrong, they might also use the Search feature, but posts just fall onto the second, third, fourth page so fast in the General forum.

I just focus on the General forum because it's easier to keep track of one forum and it's the most active. When I try to post in the specific forums, it's so tedious to navigate all their arguments and complaints and they are so repetitive that you're spending hours repeating the same things over and over again every day. It's more varied in the General forum.

They have, actually, referenced things I've seen brought up in these forums. Specifically acknowledging that people want to go back to "3.x job design", but that they are happy with the current design and want to continue it. To me, this was an acknowledgement of one of the major points I've seen brought up, they are just saying they disagree.

I don't think it's so much that they do not read those forums. It's more likely the translation barrier. The developers are Japanese, and despite what they claim, feedback from the community team struggles to get through to them or there are gaps in the information they gather.

There are actual places to put feedback, but for some reason, NA players just post in general discussion where it'll be drowned out

I mean the game itself tells you to post feedback here.
