Only problem is that the right direction for you might be the wrong direction for me. This will take a lot of planning.

The more they listen to us the better. See the enmity problem, we cried and cried and they're gonna fix it.

Over the course of 4+ years. Better now than never I guess?

Only if they fix it correctly.

That all depends on what they deem is correct. I'm sure they will abolish the current enmity formulae and rework a new one from the ground up.

| | Hello everyone.
Thanks for all of the "likes" and messages in response to the post I made the other day!
As I wrote in the Message from the Producer, there is a ton to catch up on from the past two years and I've been doing my best each day to do just that. However, even if I do my best I don’t think this gap is something that I can completely fill by myself, so I would really appreciate everyone's help.
Now then, I'd like you all to tell me what you would like me to focus on. Anything is fine.
However, I would like you to keep in mind and agree to the following:
Do not attack or flame others, including myself.
Be specific and concrete. We won't be able to accomplish anything if posts are unclear or full of attacks.
Instead of saying what you "don’t want," tell me what you "want."
Tell me what it is that YOU prefer. Not what your friends or linkshell members say, I want to hear from you specifically.
Please make your posts as a reply to this thread (I will also be taking into consideration the amount of "likes" each post receives). As a general rule, feedback should be posted in the appropriate thread, so once we collected enough post in this thread and after an appropriate amount of time, we'll close the thread. Also please limit replies to your opinions only and if you would like to discuss specific points, please utilize appropriate threads for each topic.
I will be doing my best to look over each and every post made. (Though, I am sure it will take some time…) Your opinions will definitely play a part in helping me fill in the gap from these past two years as well as for thinking about the future of FINAL FANTASY XI.
In addition to the work for currently scheduled version updates, there is also a lot of work to be done for the new expansion, "Seeker of Adoulin," so I don’t think there will be very many things we can do immediately and I’d like to apologize for that.
Also, I don’t believe it will be possible to have every single thing come to fruition, due to the fact that there may be content that is contradictory or things that no matter how hard we try it is just not feasible.
I will first be making sure that I accurately understand what you would like and then will determine if it is possible or not, and assign a priority level to it. I will be sharing this with you all and making it so together we can see the picture of how FINAL FANTASY XI will change going forward. I feel this is something the community needs and though it might not be quite so easy, it is a method I would like to adopt.
Thank you very much! | |
As always with topics like these, feel free to discuss the topic here, but if you want your voice heard you will need to post in the topic on the official forums.

| | Thank you so much for the large amount of comments! We will now be closing the thread.
There are a huge amount of suggestions from Japan, North America, and Europe, but I will be looking over each and every post that followed the instructions, and will be taking it all into consideration as I think about the future of FINAL FANTASY XI and the mutual feelings of the community.
I also have one more request for you all. I hope that you all could read over all of the posts in this thread (of course, reading over what you can is fine, too).
After playing with your friends for so long, you often start to think and play the same way as the them, including your linkshell members, and players that you spend a lot of time with and grow close to.
In this thread there are posts from these people as well as people who think in a completely different way. I’d like you to try and understand what adventurers other than yourself are thinking and looking for.
In order to continue to protect the FINAL FANTASY XI that we all love, we need everyone's cooperation or we'll be unable to accomplish anything.
I'd like to place more importance on the community and work side-by-side with you all.
From here on out I would appreciate it if you could consider the fact that there are people in the community who think in a variety of different ways and to sometimes write your feedback and opinions from an open-minded standpoint.
Thank you all very much! | |
