Right.

It's all a sad joke. An illusion woven by the interweb. FFXIV was just fine the way it was in the system they originally thought of, which is clear due to the amount of subscriptions they boast about.

Why they decided to make an abject paradigm shift into Tanaka style content is beyond me but they need to either make it so that the average player can enjoy all content of the game, while the Hardcore player is justly rewarded for their greater time spent (the Tank Mount was a good example and small gesture that really meant a lot to tanks that faced higher content consistently).

Or they need to just separate the kids who can't play nice with one another and end this forever..
