    Its not about reading lore. Anyone can make up a bunch of stuff and call it lore.

    FFXIV fails at delivering it.

    Yes the delivery is as cheap as any wow-trash quest but I honestly think the writing itself lacks any coherent theme and most importantly mood.

    Every FF title had primary themes that were explored in different ways int the sidequests. Even XI that maintained the theme of repairable loss and the memories of war.

    XIV main or sub-plots have no theme nor mood and the cheap presentation of the plot in the NPC-quests only serves to highlight how the story lacks any direction and emotion from it.

    Where are the good writers? I think we can tell with 100% certainty that they aren't working on the XIII games... did SE fire them?

    Huh, XIII, XIII-2 and Versus XIII (thus far) has good writing, just because you dislike it doesn't mean it's bad.
