In fact having a shared loot list does great things to give linkshells and groups goals to work towards and keep them invested in the game for eachother. This sham of a personal loot list based currency turning the "top tier endgame" content into a transparent grind for gear we know will likely be made useless with the next patch must only work on complete saps with no sense at all.

Thank god Yoshida is keeping them happy at least!
We really do. The difference between the NM's and Ifrit is that there is a variety of NM's to take on, and can only kill them but so many times. FNM's, people needed to build up their points, that is what made them worthwhile.

Ifrit you fight every 15 minutes, and can be fought a lot of times in one night, this makes the content stale in a short time. I know by Nov., people were getting sick of Ifrit. If you are making content based around one fight, you have to make it last. People get sick of doing the same fight over and over unless they know there is something to gain, you have to keep people in that state of mind till the next patch. Game does not need to go into easy mode.
