    If you came to ffxiv for the pvp you might as well leave. Their focus has always been on PvE. Pvp is just extra stuff to do that most people couldnt care less about. Sure they should make the rewards more great for more interest in it. I wouldn't mind at level 40 for more mounts. I already got my 100 wins for the horse and I'm not switching to any other go to do that because they always seem to lose and I love playing with my friends.

    Don't be so sure. The lead developer is a big fan of PvP and is adamant that it be a big part of this game. I wouldn't write it off as a mere side dish just yet.

    Still irrelevant if the majority of the playerbase doesn't care. The devs can add all the PvP they want, if no one wants to play it you'll end up with even longer queues as there is more content for the same number of players that actually want to do it.

    FL was busy for the first week because it was new and shiny. The rewards and ranking system make it not worth doing.

    Having an opinion does not make you right or wrong, it simply means you have an opinion. Don't get irritated when people don't agree.

    Of course. But what I'm saying is that, if the PvP they add has problems that are obviously hurting their popularity and outright ruining the PvP in this game, then the developers are more likely to do something about it due to one of the higher-ups on the team being into PvP. For the same reason, I don't think PvP will feel like as much of an afterthought or a side dish in FFXIV as it does in most other MMOs.

    Besides, I don't think that the PvP in this game will die any time soon. I mean, hell, even the Wolves' Den survived fairly well despite itself, and Frontlines are nowhere near that amount of fail.
