Most of the MMO will introduce a new faction to give the new gears some kind of lore. It's probably one of the most un-creative part of FF14.
I'd be very upset if they removed Gerolt from this. The running gag of him being enslaved to Rowena but also secretly loving it (both ways) is pretty great. I hope they get married one day. I think you misunderstand the creative part here. Other games will throw random things together and that is really easy to do. I can come up with new lore in a matter of seconds just like anyone else but to build from existing lore, that is different and powerful. You're really going to tell us that the writers of Final Fantasy XIV has poor creative vision? Really?
