Open World PvP

If they added separate wpvp servers I wouldn't be against it.

Godwin point is not really usual in FFXIV community. In my experience it was rather the opposite.

It has always been really common on forums. The Godwin's law has been defined back in 90's.

To return to the topic, most players I know since ARR don't like PVP and consider the fact PVP really is a side content as a plus. Not it be stressful, it's a bother.

Yes please add a mandatory WPvP zone as part of the next relic. That would be interesting.

Lmao, these bad ass tough guy PvP cowboys sure do get offended quickly, I've not seen this level of victim claiming in ages. As soon as the tiniest shot back is fired you all get together to condemn how terrible it was.

Just imagine if we got PvP how triggered you'd be getting bounced by a male Roegadyn in stockings and panties.

It's less about being offended and more a matter of desiring civil discussion and for the thread to not be thrown off track. That and the barbs shot make little sense to begin with.

A male roe wearing panties is no match for my Namazu head/subligar combo.

There was a mentioned thing about a status that could be clicked on for those that want to partake in it. I'd be fine with that.

I despise open world pvp for the harassment aspect. There's a lot of low-life players that would camp low-level zones just to one-shot new players over and over again. Also this would let bots rule the overworld. They would just hide underground and pelt people with spells and/or bullets/arrows with 0 retaliation against them. Doing MSQ or sidequests only to get killed for walking by underground bots? Yeah. 11/10 experience there amirite.

Really? The very same people who come out with gems such as "bullying the weak is fun" and "crashing weddings is fun" and "you should have seen that funeral we crashed, it was hilarious" and "gatherers are gonna get it, minding their own business, pffft"..... well I could go on. This thread has been a gold mine for that kind of thing. And now, you want to talk about civility..... ok, sure thing bud, makes sense.


In before I get told I don't "comprehend" PvP in

I'd suggest that even a cursory glance at the thread would show that there is no hive mind at play and that even those who desire more PvP content in the game are not in full agreement with one another. As such, it doesn't make much sense to me to paint everyone in such broad strokes.

If we want to try a different angle, though, consider that many people simply aren't interested in being pulled into a debate lacking in a civil exchange as they would rather not see themselves or even other posters banned due to breaches of the site rules - or for the thread to be nuked/closed.

There is a good half a dozen of you that likes to stand around stroking your beards discussing how offended you are at even playful shots back, then you condescend people to within an inch of their lives and talk about how much fun it is to bully people in game. And now you want to lecture me on civility, give it break mate, you don't have the credibility.
