What lore do you ignore?

[YianKutku]

The entirety of the Yorha raids.

EDIT: Hit post too soon.

The primary issue I have with the Yorha raids is they make themselves ignorable. They link to almost nothing in the greater FFXIV setting, they refer to almost nothing in the greater FFXIV setting, and the greater FFXIV setting refers to nothing in them. The only link is "they take place in a location in the setting, involving some characters who live in that setting".

If I ignore the Yorha raids, I cannot think of any difference that would make to the lore of FFXIV. So there's really no point in my trying to make sense of them in the context of FFXIV, especially since the last few times I asked I was told "it's just Yoko Taro". Which itself is not a useful answer, because that doesn't actually tell me anything.
