It made sense not to have one for Final Fantasy XI where bazaars became important. Bazaars don't exist in 14. GW2, WOW, and SWTOR have auto-kick, so it's well precedented.

I don't see the issue. It is extremely easy to log back in. If you aren't around to press a key every 25 minutes, then you aren't around to accept a duty finder invite, either, so I don't think that's a good justification.

BUT BUT BUT.... My Immersion!!! How can I be immersed if I have wireless headphones and I want to sit on my couch and close my eyes and listen to the sounds of the game as I sit comfortably and pretend I'm actually there and talk to myself as if there are others around me but then be logged out after 30 minutes? PREPOSTEROUS!!!

Only made sense for FFXI not to have it is that there are few players logged in. Yesterday, I logged in and there were about 800 players logged in during NA prime time and 1,600 during JP prime time.
