I wonder why people kept defending the game and saying it is great and then chase away others who commented about the problems of the game.
The few problems mentioned over and over in reviews and forums are there. It is really there and it is a fact. Then all the fans doesn't want to admit it and blinded. They kept thinking this is a masterpiece and a great game.
Well if SE behaves in such way, then they won't improve the game because like most of the fans, thy think their game is so great and flawless. Please, we commented not because we hate the game. We love the game but disappointed with the game with so much potential yet delivered badly.
Some said it is super new and fresh game so problems are suppose to be there. Unless SE is super new in gaming and mmorpg industry, they shouldn't have missed out BASIC flaws and problems which even FREE BETA mmorpg manages to think of. We don't do the same mistake all over again as if they never make any game/mmorpg before.
I like the game but at this moment it is in a very bad shape. I agree with what gamespot said. Clear your mind and don't be so defensive and read/watch the reviews. You will see that THERE ARE PROBLEMS NEED TO BE SOLVED. Don't chase people away with arrogant comments.
SE needs more subscribers and I don't think they make the game just to please the hardcores. Everything is up to SE now. My friends are quitting and some are laughing at me for paying for such game. Even worst after gamespot 4/10 reviews and soon more bad reviews popping out all with same issues. Yet fans denied such issues exists...
I do agree with you. Exactly what i experienced. I'm a fanboy of FF series too i guess, played every series since nintendo era. In the beginning, kept finding reasons/giving excusses for SE on issues of the game, but now, I'll just admit it's a total failure (For this moment that is). When a player can't easily enjoy the richness of the game due to simple issues that exist ( For me the most hated issues now are UI laggy-ness and no quick short cut for inventory, stat, etc), one can only tolerate so much until one has to open eyes and see that it is flawed. Honestly, I cannot find enjoyment right now (I'm speaking only for my own that is). I'll just log in 1-2 hour to clear some leve, so that my char is still progressing and not left too too far behind when everything is polished in the future(hopefully within 3 months time)
I hope that I didn't offend anyone, my rant is just for myself, on how i feel toward an FF Numbered game which I always love, but didn't met my level of anticipation. Many friends of mine went back to FFXI, I was quite surprise actually, since most of us already quit for 1-2yrs. Mostly are to feel what's it like reaching the new cap levels, but actually, many went back XI to get their assurance on squareenix that XIV will be polished to a great game like XI now.
oh well, i'm getting off topic..
