Hell since Yoshi-P has taken over I haven't seen 1 single thing from him actually impress me. All he is doing is turning this into WoW and refining features that should have been in place from the start. Hell we asked for Quests, and look what we got. Garbage fetch and kill crap (with no storyline). Also guess what, they are utterly: EASY.
They left because of the UI and lack of content. Not one review said anything about level of difficulty (although it might have come up if anyone got that far). SE made it loud and clear that this would be a more casual friendly game. But you still act shocked about it.

It's not that I don't understand. Everything I loved about wow got yanked from me with Cata (it wasn't about difficulty, so don't bother), and I was angry. I also know the fun of a community, group driven game. But this isn't FFXI, it's FFXIV. A new game. You can't bring your expectations for more of the same, when SE announced it would not be the same.

But no matter your feelings, it's no excuse to bash people unfairly. It's not just that it's immature, it divides the community even farther, which most of you claim to want, a good community. The truth about community, however, is that people are going to think differently. There's no right or wrong about that. What's important is that we respect each other.

I don't think there's a single casual/relaxed player in this community that doesn't want to see you guys have your extreme content (yes I'm assuming a bit, but I'm also going off of forum posts), but we all have to share the playground.
