What you hear is the result of too little information. If they had released more than a website 2 trailers and a screenshot on the website, do you think we would care that there was no live video feed at Gamescom?

When your fans are starving for info, opening a restaurant of it and then putting up "Sorry, we're closed." when they're all lined up to partake is bound to trigger this reaction.

Do you really think a fan of FFXIV likes getting its information off other websites? Do you think they're happy having to rehash FFXIVs disastrous release every time some off-brand website posts a video or screenshot? And then after that, read through about how "it could suck again folks!"

Really, FFXIV is not controlling the message. It's barely getting the message out there. I really don't think they understand that the internet is everything. If it's not on the net, it practically doesn't exist. We are months before release and the vast majority of the gaming public does not know/does not care about it.
