The devs do listen. FFXI never failed at all.

WoW is just a better game for the market and has done better marketing. The mere fact that the game is challenging is what makes FFXI what it is. The Lan Party Feel and the ease of WoW is what makes it what it is. The market is stronger for the latter. But those who really got into both games would be at ends if anyone said WoW was a better product for the gamers.
No they do not, at least not to the NA/EU users. The Japanese gamers do get more of a say then anyone else does.

If the developers actually listen to the NA/EU gamers then why haven't HNMs/Gods been fixed. Why is AV still unbeatable in its current state.
Why hasn't half the shit in bluegartrs forum not been implemented?

Sure they look at our suggestions but hardly any of them ever make it in because SE is too afraid to break their precious game. They'd rather design around the flaws then fix them themselves. Look how long it took us to get access into each others moghouse. (coming in expansion) Look how long it took for the 2hander fix.

Sorry for shitty post halfassing most of what i've written, hopefully it gets most of the point across... I'll come back and fix it after I get food.
