And in 1.20b we'll have...

Group B: you are a mmo fan and you like ez content and flashy stuff, everything that is cool looking should be added with no care into uh "lore" or "immersion"

I'm in group C: idc what SE does, as long as its fun, entertaining and challenging. Too many "don't change my perception of this series".

So Group C = Group B then....

Thanks for making my point.

My experience with group B players, that is - those that just want their favorite stuff from other MMO games brought into the latest MMO (which happens to be FFXIV), is that they often won't stick around very long.

These types of players will typically flock to the whatever the latest and greatest MMO happens to be. They have no real long-term interest in FFXIV or the franchise, nor do they care much about the craftsmanship that goes into the game.

Its the difference between wanting the game to be a piece of art, or a just a drug.
