The Rising event was really annoying to wait for the Rising Recruiter.
I remember Yoshida's GDC 2014 presentation and that 'What we have learned' slide.

The first thing that comes to my mind about this patch cycle is me asking "B-b-but Yoshida-sama, I thought fun comes first, right?"
Then he would point at me and say "Eryna, if it isn't fun, you're doing it wrong."

*sigh* After 4 years I think I need to take a break from FFXIV.
