Is no one happy?

If you consider it "toxic" to talk about places the game sorely needs improvements or changes in, in a constructive and politely critiquing manner, then you're honestly the toxic one in the equation.

Sorry not sorry.

But hey, least the mainsub will have one more toxic positivity crusader upvoting yet another generic catgirl anime-style commission, I guess?

Tries to defend the place by saying it isn't toxic...by being toxic. This is kinda what the issue is dude. Most of the crap here is just people taking shots and insulting others for differing opinions. Call spots like reddit bad if you want, but if I want to have fun with the community outside of the game that's the place to go. Not here. Positivity here gets strangled

These forums are meant to be a place for criticism. So obviously its not going to always be rainbows and sunshine. Reddit is literally just as bad except the opposite. This place might be all about criticism, but that place is nothing but toxic positivity where if you disagree or critique at all, you get blasted for it. I've had it happen personally as i already stated here.

Boo hoo, cry me a river. Maybe if you people actually tried to engage constructively instead of shouting down and gaslighting everyone who has valid critique and criticism over various aspects of this game, I might actually bother to be polite. But you reap what you sow; don't like how I act to you? Should've not acted like that towards us 'vocal minority of complainers'.

It's rather funny that it's Ikara of all people trying to take the moral highground. Maybe someone who believes the game is just fine the way it is and didn't engage with petty squabbles over it could have a leg to stand on, but IkaraGreydancer of all people has zero place to speak. All they do is go around making passive-aggressive potshots and insult others for having a differing opinion. Seriously, Ikara, is honesty just an alien concept to you or are you just a super cool elaborate troll?

I stopped taking this game seriously after LL69 and Yoshida's obsession towards new/ non mmo players, and 6.1 MSQ. And you know what? I feel so much better now. I just log in, do my reclears, unreal, a bit of gathering, some roulettes then I log off.
So yes, for what it is now, I'm happy. I haven't played for the last week because of sinusitis and surprisingly, I didn't miss the game that much. If it wasn't for my friend, I wouldn't have logged yesterday for the reset. But I did and it was a fun evening nevertheless. I still like the game, still like doing battle content but I don't care enough anymore to complain about stuff I can't change, or is agains't devs vision.

Aye, Yoshi has made it clear that the vet base that's here for an MMO experience are hardly welcome anymore. I'm letting my sub lapse and just accumulate gil in the meantime when I'm not playing other games. It also didn't help that, at least how I personally feel, Yoshi has been far more flippant towards the community lately. The arrogance that comes with success is not a new story to any development of any media and I fear we're arriving at that stop ourselves. Not that I ever understood the Yoshi worship, though, honestly. The man's skills (used to) lie in managerial ability, not developmental. The cracks of this lack are forming now and instead of trying to address them, the man seems more content to tell us to just leave.

Sad. I really like XIV.

Not crying at all lmao youre the one upset tbf. And what are you talking about? Who here was rude to you? I know for a fact that I wasn't. Plenty of us engage constructively but that never matters it seems because we're always "wrong" no matter what if we don't share your grievances.

You don't get to basically claim the place isn't toxic by being toxic yourself dude. That's hypocritical no matter how you try n justify it.

You're putting yourself on a pedestal like you're above other folks, "us vocal minority". This is the type of stuff that makes me say you can't exactly be on the OF and express that you like the state of the game. That's taboo and wrong think. This is probably why the devs ain't listening to yall. To much bs and infighting to take seriously. Such a welcoming community...until you don't crap on the things others dislike about the game

That sure is a lot of crying for someone who claims to not be crying.

If my response equates to crying to you then you and those folks liking your posts are only proving my point. And you claim you'd be polite if folks were polite to you. That's a good joke

I dunno, try being polite to people for once and see? Just a thought.

Also imagine being so obsessed with how many likes a post gets, l m f a o.
