Before I see any more "nitpicking ARR" threads.

Get alpha 1.0 out of your damn head already!!!!

I just said that because the guy who posted before me mentioned Alpha!

That goes for ANYONE that pulls the "once upon a time in 1.0 alpha" card

Perhaps a shampoo instead.

Everyone here is suffering from FFXIV withdrawal. It is hard to just sit and twiddle your collective thumbs and do NOTHING. Nevertheless, remember Alpha is not ARR... it is just some stuff cobbled together. Animations, gear, characters etc are not what will be in ARR. We have to wait until Jan or Feb next year for Beta. Beta will be worth criticizing. And everyone will be able to try out Beta. It is the real game, if incomplete. Remember, not even hairstyles will be finished when ARR actually releases. So it is gonna be awhile before we can actually effectively critique the game and its tidley parts.

I guarantee when the beta comes out, the same people avidly defending it now will defend it still.

"It's beta, it's not even released yet!"

[Hart]

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Bring on the gripers, I say. If ARR fails it won't be from a lack of trying on our part. After all, we're not designers and we don't work for SE. This is our only way to contribute to the project.

There is no better place for this kind of talk, it could be bad publicity anywhere else.

Nitpicking about nitpicking in general section is about as low as it gets.

At least the beta players will have access to said content to be making those kinds of judgements and nitpicks, instead of freaking out over a few youtube videos that have been released that are probably already dated.

Well, actually I judge based on illegal livestreams from anxious Japanese players.

Still doesn't constitute bitching on our end since we don't have "official" access to Alpha yet, therefore we are "talking out the ass"
