Player Convenience VS Game Depth

Dodore made you wait for specific times, and so does Ureaus. I don't see a problem with them, and there are PLENTY of activites for you to do while waiting, you don't have to just focus on that one thing.

I like that specific mobs only come out for certain conditions. It adds to the immersion, omg I said immersion xD

Personally, I think anything that makes you wait/camp instead of actually playing is the exact opposite of immersion.

So let's have all these skeletons walking around in the daylight when the lore clearly states they only in caves/night time?

I mean it's not STOPPING you from playing, there is OTHER content to do. Dodore and Ureaus make you wait, I don't b**** to my linkshell because we have to wait, I go do something else and we gather at the right time.

I don't get why people don't want a very in depth game..... Oh wait... this is FFXIV crowed we are talking to...
