Just did it.
Definitely shows humility when a dev team admits their previous faults and desires to make up for them. I didn't play the original FF14, but I imagine to those who did, SE has more than made up for that with A Realm Reborn, and especially Heavensward so far...
I've been absolutely beyond impressed with this game so far. Been playing about 2 months, and frankly, the story, the story-telling, the class system... it's all been truly breathtaking. It's new. It's different. And most of all... it's all done SO WELL.
