    Catering to their base is exactly what game companies do.

    "Trash fan service" is a personal opinion, not useful feedback or criticism.

    How so? Both G'raha Tia (at your service), and Ryne/Gaia storylines objectively suck. I just want them to start telling good stories again, it's very useful feedback. It is the definition of constructive criticism. I presume all of us here like a good story as much as the next person. We are all FF players, afterall.

    The game wouldn't be for us otherwise.

    Also, I said catering to a base.

    I would disagree with G'raha Tia, but Ryne and Gaia's storyline did leave a bit to be desired. Maybe it just wasn't for me though. If they were trying to capture the essence of FF 8 I feel they failed miserably. Some bosses and music doesn't do the trick by themselves. And their attempt to make them similar to Squall and Rinoa in any way also fell apart pretty fast, at least in my opinion. It just didn't have the same emotional impact. It was off to a great start, but then it began to fizzle out.

    G'raha Tia (at your service) is objectively a bad character. I don't see how anyone could like him. They have been pushing that dude on us WAY too much since after ShB launch. His story arc should have ended completely already, but they CONTINUE to push him on us. Especially in the latest patch. God it was AWFUL! That isn't even to mention FANDANIEL - PLEASE don't get me started on that guy..

    Ryne/Gaia plot is... just.. SO BAD. Yeah, I really don't know what they were going for here, but I can barely sit through it.. The story was WAY better before all the fan service trash, objectively. I like the story, but it's been going downhill fast. I'm honestly worried about 6.0 story, hopefully it will be good though.

    The game is still for me (for now), but obviously this game isn't for many others (right?). I just wish SE could figure out a good compromise for everyone. And also stop giving us trash plot. G'raha Tia (at your service*) needs to be taken out back - Zenos should do the honors.
