Sadly, many people love FFXIV despite the raids, not because of them. Endwalker has 24 hours of cutscenes and an equal time of walking for two hours of actual gameplay. And many people LOVE this. The less gameplay, the more people rush to FFXIV’s defense.



And after you beat the story? That’s when you go clubbing with your friends while trying on your brand new mods that you can now share with Mare. So why even worry about raiding? Just do /beesknees and alt-tab to a better game! That’s the FFXIV way!
