This Community gets too worked up over people who DONT LIKE the story

Basically what youre admitting is that criticism of the story is a blow to your ego. No wonder you try so hard to defend the FFXIV story. You take the criticism personally.

Telling people to judge the story based off of what we were told rather than what they imagined we were told is not 'defending the story'.

The posters you are criticising have been been going off of what the story has told them - and so they're calling out the lazy retcons, blatant contradictions and weird attempts at the justification of genocide despite the story and characters within it insisting that such acts were an unforgivable red line that could never be crossed.
