5 Honest Questions for the FFXIV Player Base

[Shelia]

1. Do you understand the basics of any development cycle (How long it takes/How it works)?
Yes, but they should've had this game completely developed before even bothering to market it. I'm not talking things like chocobos/airships... I'm talking like having a finalized combat system and UI. To this day they're still fixing it, and they should've taken these suggestions during alpha/beta... not now.

2. Do you think that the dev team, under Tanaka, included meaningful documentation in their code?
I kind of doubt it, but who knows.

3. Are you a major stock holder?
No.

4. Do you understand the meaning of the phrase "we have to stand before we can walk"?
Yes, but that's no excuse for this abomination that was sold as a product....six months later it isn't much better either. lol

5. Have you, personally, seen ANY of the feedback submitted other than your own that was not on the forums?
Uhm... The wording in this question is a little weird and I don't know how to answer. I've seen other people outside these forums complain about the game several times.

I'm not a computer programmer, but I do know that another team with 5 years at their disposal could have developed a much more successful Final Fantasy MMORPG.

[Kaedan]

1. Yup. Done some work in the business.
2. I hope so, but really, it's mostly the same coders, just a reorganization.
3. Major? No. Some, yes.
4. Yeah... though it's sad that there are people who don't.
5. As in through the Support center? I have, but they were posted on a fansite's forums.

So at least three yes, and maybe 4.
