    It’s all for nothing because even if they went through the Herculean task of making it possible, this community wouldn’t be able to handle it.
    The most they seem able to handle is uwu sugoi catboi twinkle-eyes. Whether it is the story and even allowing for the possibility of character deaths, darker job concepts, content that a certain portion of this community disdains, such as open world PVP apparently, unfortunately the more vocal components of this game's community are very set in their ways and would probably see it turned into a visual novel if they could.

    Never said a single word about the PVE community, which wasn't what I had in mind. Just gcbtw.

    He's significantly more mature than the vast majority of naysayers in this thread.

    Once again the FFXIV players supposedly so concerned with 'toxicity' prove to be among the first to resort to personal attacks and attempted character assassination of individuals they do not know in the slightest.

    You might have to point out what he said that was factual, I saw lots of opinions myself

    Oh right, probably why the game has gone from strength to strength and is still growing, breaking the standard MMO mould of growth, because it's stuck in the mud and insipid. Hot take that

    You have got to be kidding with this, he throws out a barrage of insults against the player base because people don't agree with him, then blurts out the classic, and already boring gcbtw meme and you think my little comment is the example of toxicity? Get real.

    The people very vocally shouting down any request touching on the areas I mentioned, of which there is an abundance of examples one can survey by simply reviewing threads on those topics. Not really hard to grasp, now is it? No idea why you'd think I meant the PVE community, either.
