    Just a couple of recent examples from the usual Shout chat advertisements:




    A roleplay venue is one thing because that expands the in-game universe and builds upon lore. But sex tourism in a T-rated game? This stuff is advertised openly and brazenly, and not just from Balmungers. Most of these are cross-world venues with cross-DC clientele.

    Combined with the growing modding community and it's clear that FFXIV is becoming less of a gameplay-focused MMO and more of a "Second Life"-esque social simulator.

    Yeah I'm going to admit that is straight up too much and I think action could...or at least should...be taken against them.

    When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.

    Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.

    There is a key part in that, you dont have to join the discords or to go to the venues

    I know it's crazy !

    And you can also mute shouts and yells !

    That fixes all of your issues

    Really weird that you seem to defend this spam. Do you have a vested interest in it?


    Seems to me thou doth protest too much.


    Shouts and yells have a valid use outside of 18+ venue RMT spam.
