Remember when in Stormblood, they introduced Mikoto, a cute femra in the Ivalice raid story?
And then in Shadowbringers, they brought her back for Bozja, where near the end she reveals she has feelings for Cid, a male character, completely out of nowhere. Literally nothing even hinted at it prior, not in Ivalice (where Cid was pressent and they had little interaction, none of which was romantic), and not at any point in the Bozja story up until that exact moment. And the best part? She reveals her feelings for Cid RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU while you stand there like a cuck.
I always thought this was purely spiteful to straight male players who may have waifu'd her. Same expansion that introduced a love-interset for Y'shtola btw, this is not a coincidence.

It must be pure hell to be a writer on a franchise where none of the characters can ever be allowed to do or feel anything that offends the sensibilities of some overly attached segment of the fanbase who WILL take personal offense and hold a grudge against you for years.

There's a real simple solution for that: Don't write for video games. People need to get it in their heads that writing for video games is not the same as writing for books or THEATER.
I REPEAT, YOSHI P: THEATER WRITERS SHOULD NOT WRITE FOR VIDEO GAMES.

It's not money. It's talent. He's been publicly begging for more talent since HW. You have about five years with a given team before it gets Ship of Theseused beyond recognition. You need to have new talent to make sure that the new ship is as good as the old ship. But that can't just be brand new hires. In this case it needs to be people in their late 30s-40s who have actual experience in the domain you hired them for. Those people are valuable everywhere though, it's hard to find them.
Dawntrail was a disappointment in a lot of ways precisely because, lacking experienced hires, he had to make do with "promising" candidates and hope they improve after they get more experience.

All he had to do was not move the writer everyone liked into a non-writing position. Nobody expects fucking shit from FFXIV's gameplay and hasn't since HW cemented the stale content cycle, it was always the story making people put up with it. Is the actual gameplay portion of DT so bad that it can be blamed on lack of talent and not just a couple of directors?

What if the person who wrote the game didn't want to keep writing? What if they wanted a pay raise, a promotion, and a bit more distance from the game itself so they can leave the team to work on something else in a few years?
What if the writer dreams of being a NEET, as we all know to be good and just, and this was in preparation for that? What do you do, as the producer?

jrpgs used to have a healthy amount of whimsy. Modern trannoids and hambests, of which japan is infested (They love parroting the west with a 3-4 year delay gap, so their game was still "sane" during the WoW peak of retardation). Now that the west is moving on from faggots and their clever "social narratives" as a whole, Japan is still mired in them. It's possible they'll free themselves of the influence in a few more years, but FFXIV is compromised and does not deserve a revival in either case.
Retarded corporate suits ordering "market research" and "western sensitivities" as centerpieces of narratives rather than whatever the author actually might've wanted to tell spelled their deserved doom.
Good riddance and fuck off.

I hope they use the themepark experience from FF14 and make an Elden Ring: Nightreign ripoff with FF related jobs beating iconic FF monsters and bosses.
Imagine playing as Monk or Dark Knight, beat up Sephiroth and unlock Tifa or Cloud skin.
I'm sure if they start now they'll make it just on time when the trend is dying and nobody asks for more of this genre

Yes.
I think 3 is the most thematic and best one from an identity standpoint, but execution wise I like 2 more, if that makes sense. 3 feels the most like her, but 2 feels more practical from the adventuring and practicality side. 1 is nostalgic as hell though.

No, he's literally manually posting his folder every time he does it, and only stops when he gets in an argument with people, at which point he'll scream and accuse them of being his boogeyman.
