YoshyP saved FF 14 but also killing it.

Man it stinks here. Smells like Mountain Dew and Doirto. Wonder why...









Ah that's why.

Those people are simps that just upset that they are 1 of the few people that buys trash from the mogstore.

I think its both. I think Yoshi P unfortunately has no counter, thats why you ususally have a director and a producer. They balance each other out to ensure nothing is too risky or too stale. With YP in both roles, I think he could do with someone to challenge his ideology. Because lets be real, the foundations of the game are cracking, because of recent decisions, but those decisions are born from an attempt to make the game better. The problem is its either gone too far (template being the same, job dumbing down for accessibilty) or not far enough (not challenging or altering the template) There needs to be a bit of both for the game to succeed. But at the same time, there are likely constraints we arent aware of, and that is SQEX. Perhaps they need more people, but if SQEX wont give them that, then YP is handicapped no matter what he tries. As time goes on the game only gets bigger, so if it has the same resource as ARR i can see how it ended up in the state it is. (this all pure conjecture, i dont know either way)

That is the problem, no one can challenge Yoshi P. because he is purposely ignoring all of us.

the guy is too timid to face or even engage the criticism; you ever seen Yoshi P. even engage once with us in these forums alone? He does not want to be challenged, he avoids it like the plague.

Theirs some irony that they are playing it safe so they don't make mistakes, but playing it safe has been the biggest mistake ff14 has made lol.
