    He didn't say that, and neither did I. Let's discuss what people said instead what we think people said.

    Alright, let's follow this line of thought. There are currenly 722 MSQ. At the pace of 1 quest per day, we are already looking at a 2 year project (let's assume FFXIV dies and no new expansions and quests are released in the meantime).

    Now, let's take a look at the sidequests. The only concrete number I could find with a quick search was for ARR in this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...e_in_ffxivarr/. But let's just work with that for now. Between Levequests, Sidequests, Beast Tribe Quests, Class quests, and raid quests, the number comes to 1800 quests. Again, just from ARR. So that's another 5 years of translating 1 quest/day. We are at the 7 year mark now, almost as much time as the game has been going for. Not looking that easy now is it?

    Saying "LOL I'll translate 8 years worth of content for free, it's easy, I do it as a side project" is very disrespectful of the time and work of the people that have been doing this for the past 8 years as a job. You are essentially saying that their job can be done by anyone for free with very little effort.
