What is with the constant mistreatment of the Garlean story?(6.1 Patch spoilers)

[KizuyaKatogami]

Uh ... is FF14 your only Japanese game or media you have ever seen? This is not a FF thing, it's a Japanese/anime thing. They always have these kind of goofy thing irregardless of how serious the story is. I had watched anime, read manga and novel, live action move that have the core story 100x more serious than FF14 and the characters still gonna have their silly moments. Heck, even if you take something like Warhammer 40k and give it to a Japanese developers, they will make even a lord inquisitor or primach have their goofy moment. That's part of the culture of the medium.

Complain about goofy moments in a Japanese game is like complaining why water make you wet.

FF games are japanese games, yet they know when to have funny moments and when not to. 14 does not know how to handle this distinction and thus it just takes away from the story. Not to mention other ff games also have consequences for the main cast so the light hearted moments actually feel like more of a relief. Whereas nothing ever happens to the main cast to warrant needing any sort of relief in this game.
