I agree that you can't blame the developers for people being an assholes - even if those said peoples are doing it without knowing the consequences. But you do need to blame the developer for designing reives that badly, and the atrocious enmity adjustment that currently wreaking havoc everywhere.
I have to admit, it is funny to see dead bodies everywhere. It's like when back in Campaign someone pulled the NM to a clusterfuck of people whacking one mob to death and BAM, dead bodies everywhere.
They really do need to fix this shared hate, ridiculous AOE, add reraise for everyone, 15 seconds warning, bigger reives area and safety zones for weakened people to rest. And just fix SoA overall. Right now it is the worst expansion to date after WoTG, and seems a lot agree on this. I mean, gosh, I never thought they could and would be able to top WoTG, but they outdid themselves this time and created the impossible lol.
It's like a bunch of juniors and interns decided to make a name for themselves, ditch what works so well in Abyssea and ToAU, and look at the worst expansion WoTG and wondering..hmm how can we do worse than this one. And DING, SoA was born!! Yes tons of some good ideas there, but boy, did they just flame out on execution. I would rather this be released in Fall 2013 with far more meaty contents and thorough testing than it currently is.
