Why do birds float? Petition to exterminate floating birds.

Of course, take out enough of the little things and it can leave a game lifeless.

Maybe I didn't make myself clear on what I said.

I think it's the little things that make the game, but as a generalisation.

I was speaking for all the little things in FFXIV, personally I don't feel a lot for the birds either, but take them out and you may feel like something maybe missing.
Sounds stupid I know but you never know.

To me that does sound stupid because the birds detract from the overall experience rather than add to it. Therefore eliminating the detraction would make it an addition, by default. Hence kill them all.

Just because it's there doesnt mean it's good. Are we really so starved for additions that we must support something that takes away from the experience?

Like I said it was a generalisation, I was only making a point about what adds to the experience and what gives that immersion.

The birds for me is just another little thing in the game and doesn't really cause much distraction for me, yes they could do with work if they are to make a nice additional touch.

Of course this is only my opinion which I thought I'd contribute like everyone else.

Birds going extinct for no reason? Yeah good luck with that one.

This is an unpaid beta test. SE doesn't have to give lore-justifications before they fix bugs.

And if they did, then by that token they would have to explain the upcoming battle changes. Try explaining the imminent release of auto-attack. What? - so now we're all suddenly automatons from Windurst? Um, wrong game S.E.!

Besides, here's a reason:

The birds, being so opposed to gravity as they were, eventually found themselves floating off into the heavens. This mass exodus of befouling fowls was met with nothing but rejoicing sounds all over Eorzea as people ran into the streets in their jubilation, crying with delight as the birds ascended to their perch in the skies, never to besmirch the landscapes of FFXIV again.

thats an amazing reason :] plus it fits in with the rest of the games story (complete randomness with no relation to any of the other lore in the world)

Thanks, I think SE should hire me to write their next Fanfiction post on the lodestone.

you should.
seriously the lore in this game is random and fails hardcore. I don't think a single NPC in this game talks about the different races even though you have like HUGE differences between normal miqote and moonkeeper ones
