WoW players are not "hardened" unless you mean completely screwed over by developers that seem to hate their own playerbase.

FF14 have been attacked going on 8+ years now for even playing this MMO so it should not come as a shock when they get defensive from people who have never played the MMO. There are also ways to give feedback AS YOU SEE ON THESE FORUMS DAILY that does not require to be rude.
Okay but that’s in the past. Be better than that now. We should be encouraging them to get better. Literally if it wasn’t for WoW, we wouldn’t have a lot of the systems we have in the game today. Yoshi P made his devs play WoW to understand a lot of game fundamentals. Regarding feedback, there are numerous examples of people giving feedback on these forums, and they’re met with responses like, “oh must be a troll, omg, the devs work as hard as they can!” etc etc. It really isn’t an unknown thing that this community doesn’t take criticism well. Also, let not act like 14 players don’t bash on WoW players lol. I see it all the time. By hardened, i mean less sensitive than some of the community here. Who when told how to properly play their job or to aoe in dungeons or to dps as a healer, get defensive and feel like they’re being “harassed.” There is constant fighting and toxicity between both communities, it is in no way just one sided.
