I don't care so much about the AH situation and I don't expect changes overnight, but it would be nice to hear a bit more information about the proposed combat/class systems; even if it's just a case of, "we're thinking about doing this, this and this". It's just nice to hear a little reassuring "FFXIV is going to be alright" whispered into your ear now and then and I also think it would lay some of the "maybe they're just lazy" to rest perhaps too.

I also think that when all the update/changes notes are to do with trivial matters lately, (such as increasing mob/spell size) and when there is a complete lack of information regarding any kind of follow up to their work with the mentioned drastic changes to combat/classes, it can get a little frustrating.

So to summarise I can accept they need time to do these drastic changes, but it doesn't take more than a day's work to briefly mention some details of what they're planning for these changes. Also could these tid bits of often contradicting information regarding companies be anymore of a...co- um... strip tease? Let's go with strip tease! Sure you want to build up the anticipation of your shiny new system but at least give us a clue of what it involves.

There have also been a few mentions of "hey it's free, don't complain". I just wanted to point out that some of us payed for the collector's edition which was like £30-40 and then many of us needed PC hardware changes that we got just to play FFXIV. I myself had to purchase a new graphics card and since I'm mostly a console gamer (with the exception of Borderlands/FFXI) it was a pretty "especially for FFXIV" purchase. So don't take for granted "it's free so you have no right to complain." Besides which, getting punched in the face is free but I'd certainly object to it.
