If the FFXIV MSQ destroyed your city...

[Theodric]

It wouldn't bother me, since I'm not particularly invested in Eorzea to begin with. It's just not as interesting to me as the factions and nations that exist outside of it that don't have the tiresome plot device that is the Warrior of Light to lean on to solve all their problems for them.

Eorzea's cities are simply melting pots, anyway - so it'd be hard for me to feel the same investment towards them as I did towards the likes of Silvermoon and Darnassus back when I played WoW. They have interesting elements to them, though the game doesn't really explore those elements to any significant degree nor does it hold Eorzeans to the same standards as it holds outsiders to.

I liked Ishgard a lot more before Aymeric took to the leadership role, so I guess that counts as destruction? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The writers are incredibly reluctant to kill off any characters of note, anyway. It's always antagonists and secondary protagonists temporarily elevated in importance. So I doubt anybody has to worry about an entire city being destroyed.

I'll say one thing about Blizzard, much as I dislike a lot of their writing I did like how they were willing to shake up leadership roles from time to time.

Yeah, can't say any of them really interest me. Ishgard was my favourite. I like Kugane as well, even though it's not Eorzean, but...

seeing as I am happy to see it all be sacrificed to revert the Source as to what it once was... can't say I'd be particularly bothered even then. Maybe they'd even come up with some city-states which gripped me better, instead of what are by and large rather uninteresting melting pots, as you put it. So, meteors away!
