Stop Complaining!

[Voidmage]

I do believe this is one of those times when it’s important to be vocal about how the game fails the players. After 10 years the game needs to keep its old player base interested and its newer player base motivated to stick to the game.

I think DT should act as a good wake up call for the devs, who are not taking enough risks and are re-using the same formulas and concepts, and take the game’s success as granted.

If they actually listen to a lot of the well constructed criticism (which can be found elsewhere than on the forums), I think they have good chances to fix their strategy for the next expansion and come closer to reproducing SHB, EW, HW, at least when it comes to the MSQ.

Even the forum has well constructed feedback like that one thread about the writing.
It just tends to be buried by the same arguments going around because of insults and baiting.
Even this thread here is obvious bait intended to make fun of criticism and I‘m as guilty as the others for responding here.

Otherwise I agree with you especially with the wake up call.

There is a difference between complaining and giving feedback. Just saying ...

Constructive feedback is not complaining. People, including me, payed good money for this. We are entitled to expect a good product, for the money we spend. If people are not satisfied, they have every right to air their grievances. So maybe follow your own advice and stop complaining....just a thought.

Honestly, so many of people on this forums complain about stuff that isn't that important.

Healer strike? Not important. Healers are fine. Content too hard? Not really. No helmets for bunnies? Boo hoo.

How honourable of you to dismiss other people's feedback as "stuff that isn't that important"! Wow, the FFXIV community didn't use to be this toxic... what happened? Oh, right, the game's quality kept degrading, mainly because people like OP decided that they prefer paying for and eating s&%t from the Devs, masked as chocolate cake, rather than asking them to serve something better There is no in-game achievement for being a living NPC, to my knowledge...

No i paid for this shit. Why would I stop complaining? If i dont tell them what they did wrong they will not improve the game. KEEP COMPLAINING.

Don't complain about the game you pay monthly to play.

Stop complaining about people complaining about videogames!

It's a complaint. Made by people who love to complain about videogames.

No complaint is perfect and not all complaints are catered specifically for YOU.

Stop being so selfish and narcissistic. Try to enjoy life, videogames and the forum we have.

FFXIV are one of the best complaint boards out there. The mods do a great job ignoring plenty of troll threads and making sure the forums feel like any other corner of internet should.

Show some bloody appreciation for their hard work.

STOP COMPLAINING!

I complain about the game because I know they can do better, because they have done better.

I WANT Final Fantasy XIV to be the best MMORPG, but if people were to just blindly accepted DT, it could never be the best again as the game is going downhill in some aspects and others it's just maintaining it's course.

You had me at constructive feedback and lost me at entitled.

It's realistically impossible to cater to every single individual out there, at the end of the day it's still their vision and their game. It's fine not to agree with their vision and you are also free to pick a better product that fits your needs. Fair?

Tbh without complaints/feedback we'd be severely lacking in QOL stuff and even genders on some races, among other things.
At least the usual desired outcome from someone's complaints is for the game's improvement.
