This is how FFXIV should have launched.

Before FFXIV 1-year grace period, I was a nice person that everyone liked lol.

We'll still like you, Zeref. ^^ It will just cost you a cookie now.


To OP:

For me, watching the game change and unfold has been an adventure of itself. Sometimes it's been frustrating and sometimes it's a lot of fun, but I've enjoyed most of it and I'm glad I have not missed the past year.

It's nice to see posts like these though.
I'm glad you feel that way.
