Shamelessly plugging this old thread, mainly because I agree... http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...The-Fold-Lv.60

Game needs a lot of reworking. I'm hoping it comes from Stormblood, but hopes aren't high.

Troll post? You just described a Smash Bros. with all items on max droprate scenario. That's not competitive. It's good for a few dumb laughs with your friends in a living room, not a competitive PvP mode with a director aspiring for e-sports.

The game needs to be able to function in a basic deathmatch format. Feast presents wack comeback mechanics and fake objectives in the form of medals. As Ava stated, no team should be penalized for being in the lead.
