Last guy asked two questions and they answered the one about not leveling all crafts
But I'd rather have them answer removing level caps from quests. They mentioned the big one and that quest suuuuuckkks, lol. The level cap isn't even the worst part, the pathing of the npc is fully broken and he will just stand still for like 10 minutes. Gross

With how long I have been in and out of FFXI I know my view is overly optimistic and can be too sentimental, but I think Matsui and Fujito deserve more credit than we generally give them. They are most likely wanting to implement or change many things for FFXI but are constricted by their seniors. I imagine they are fighting a lot of battles internally on behalf of the FFXI community. It must hurt for them to read so many negative responses and reactions. Expressing our frustration is fine but that should go against the company in general, not Matsui and Fujito where possible. I guess everyone is just a bit shellshocked from all the truth bombs being dropped.
Well, yeah, but how do you know that? Why are you separating these two people that are just as ingrained into the company as all the other senior members? It's not like these people are like, junior baby interns, they're seasoned old crusty dudes like the rest.

Has any content gotten them so much consistent negative feedback as Odyssey?
People didn't like Odyssey's predecessor Walk of Echoes. Different reasons, but it was very unpopular until they made adjustments.

Quote: A: Although we considered this in the past, we can't simply make the enemies stronger due to how Besieged has elements like key NPCs in Al Zahbi getting kidnapped and the keeping track of consecutive victories, so we're leaving it as-is for now.
I don't care about Besieged update at all, but what do the NPCs in town getting captured or consecutive wins have to do with raising the level of monsters in besieged? Curiously asking, they seem unrelated.

It would break the zone cause all the NPCs would be kidnapped constantly (and no one bothers to get them)

The real win would have been if we could actually see the damn dragon after 5+ min in area.

When the Dev team is on point they create some fantastic updates and content--BST, DRG, MNK, and RDM for modern examples.
However, the way the 20th anniversary has been hyped and shrouded in mystery for so long only to be given a glorified Star Wars theme for log-in music has left a rancid taste in my mouth. Normally I'm more positive, but this is extremely frustrating.

Alright folks. Someone start hacking in meiru into every single zone in vana'diel so we can get them to fix the game. We know the winning formula to get them to adjust anything now

RIP
Q: Would you please consider adding S. Astral Detritus to the list of items which can be purchased with Hallmarks from Ambuscade or increasing the amount of Heavy Metal Plates, Riftdross, and Riftcinder that is purchasable each month?
A: The items you listed are supposed to be obtained from another content, so we currently have no plans to add or increase the cap.

So far, they have avoided in general the most popular (and damning) questions in favor of low upvote, irrelevant distractions
Can't be addressing the massive Olyphant NMs in the zone now

Gotta love how they set the stage for a possible disappointing "Apex Jug pets" implementation up front. They must have learned instead of promising something and then it falls flat later, say "if" a few times and remind them it's not going to be anything close to what we think it should be.
Vets.

"If Matsui-p had unlimited money and resources, what would be the one thing he would like to do the most with FFXI ?"
"A: I'd like to renovate our development environment, which currently relies on specialized tools. Other than that, I'd like to revamp the UI, re-organize the tutorial, release an expansion, and hold a live in-person event in the US."

If you ask a question with an impossible setup you'll get the best lie as an answer.
I'm sure if money was no consequence, yeah, they'd do that, but it's disingenuous.
If I had unlimited money, there's a ton of ***I'd do, too, but I don't.
