    So while it may be possible to "ignore" the race itself and the e-sports trash that comes with it, ignoring the effects it has on the game, the genre, and community is not possible.
    Realistically it's going to be difficult to prove any detrimental effect world first races have on ff14's community in its entirety so this is little more than just wildly assuming things. The game is as casual friendly as ever and the community is largely casual aswell.

    For me it's my experience with another MMO that went from enjoyable to unplayable around the time they started to focus on world first races and eSports.

    And what is your experience in this game? Clearly you have been around here for a long time if your join date is Nov 2013.

    and Id like to see it stay that way or go even more so in that directions.
