How is it an awful example? There were glaring issues initially (pre alpha) for XIV such as EXP fatigue and other things, that everyone kept saying "It's pre alpha, they'll fix it!" then look what happened when the game was released.

People who adamantly defend things that are bad or wrong, hurt this game a lot more than some negative nancy who doesn't like the game.
