Random observation

[Lelila38]

I wouldn't call them "Karens" because they had a legit need to be met. They actually had numbers to support their argument. They might have been a little impatient about it, but it's finally bearing fruit.

This other person is definitely a "Karen." Big ego and no regard for the opinions / facts others bring to the table. Claiming to speak for us all. Definitely not pleasing to the eyes.

The point is, if you don't like something and never speak up about it, it won't ever change. The people who are active on these forums are people who deeply care for the game and want it to improve.
You don't have to always agree with their opinions, but acknowledge that they're rarely complaining just for the sake of it.

On a side note, I never felt like the "other person" you're so happy to attack here tries to speak for all of us. They're stating what they are unhappy with and posting what they think would solve it.

I 100% agree. There is one thing I am certain about aveyond and that is that they very deeply care about the game. You wouldnt involve yourself this much with the forum of a game if you didnt care about it. I just disagree with a lot of their assessments and interpretations.

That is an impression I get frequently. Rather than try to speak for all, the impression I get is that aveyond tries to speak for all the "real" fans. That all the people who like the game currently lack critical thinking and arent real fans. This post from this thread just reinforces that impression again:

When you push out my voice, I hope that whatever remains of the playerbase is happy with the above individual as their spokesperson.

It's one thing to be unhappy about something. "I don't like x. Please fix x"

These posts are more along the lines "If we don't fix x the playerbase will dwindle to nothing. I know what I'm talking about because I have a high standard of quality and I speak for the people." They even claim to have experienced 1.0 and the game is in a state near to that catastrophe.

EDIT: Looking over their characters, their focus is clear and limited. It's only adventure and story. That's someone who will never be satisfied as this game is not meant to satisfy just one type of player at any given time.

XIV is a place to try new things. I think they do a decent job of that. I was a die-hard caster for many years and this game got me trying out healing and tanking and I've fallen in love with and gotten good at both. If you're gonna be a stick in the mud, that's fine. Just don't come here belly-aching over the state of the game like your path is the one true path and you're the authority on quality.

If aveyond was a true fan he'd have a 2011 forum join date. You're telling me a true fan like him waited until the end of 2021 to join the forums to complain about things that needed to improve to make the game better?


He's just a new player trying to come off as a "true fan" whatever that means.

Apparently this needs a comment stating its satire, and not my actual thoughts on the matter.

Heavensward is XIV's wrath of the lich king so I don't get the Gaius comparison.

I just hope that in 7.0 they borrow from the concept of Dragonflight’s return to form, sans the focus on dragons. A regional scale conflict without ridiculous cosmic powers warring witch each other, and absolutely no anime Meteion nonsense.

Dragonflight didn't even release yet. Nobody knows if it's a return to form.

Congratulations on winning the award for the worst post left in the forums this year.

You missed the satire apparently.
