What XIV can take from XI to make it better

[Ramesses]

So doing a complete 180 with an MMO isn't worthy of respect? An MMO actually having another shot is normal? Yoshida has done an impressive amount of work, whether or not you actually agree with the direction he's going with the game. I'm not saying to praise him, but you are constantly saying shit like "YOSHIDA IS RUINING THE GAME." "YOSHIDA DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING." "YOSHIDA IS WHAT WILL KILL FFXIV."

Also learn some goddamn sentence structure.

Well said Ruisu... this Maxthunder chap seriously needs to learn some simple sentence structure. A lack of this skill speaks volumes about the level of cognitive processing.

What I also find intriguing is how he's got a dismissive opinion for several aspects of the game dynamics even though he only just started playing about a year ago... odd. There are several people on here who have been playing since closed beta 2010 and have helped this game evolve with a variety of solid suggestions...

But this guy? Almost all his posts for the past few weeks have been nothing short of abrasive towards FFXIV in general... conveniently forgetting that people only take criticizers seriously ONLY if they offer viable solutions. You will do very well to remember this in real life... trust me.

Listen Max, if you don't like the game, leave and go play something else... period. Quit the attention-grabbing negative commentary at every available opportunity; and as the FFXIV script writers would say: its just grindingly pedestrian.

Yoshi has done a phenomenal feat in sustaining this game, leading 250+ staff members (and their afflliates) to success and earned himself the respect of both his peers in the industry and players worldwide... I repeat... worldwide.

To top it off, he obviously has enough of a brilliant strategy in mind to be able to receive the full backing of President CEO Yoichi Wada.

Until you can equal these accomplishments or do better, hold your peace... from where I come from, thats a very powerful piece of advice. Seriously.
