And secondly, I can't see any reason to since it is, demonstrably, only acceptable to have a negative opinion of FFXIV in this forum in general and this thread in particular.
So don't even bring it up if you only want it to support yours and yours only argument.

As for negativity, I don't get it. This is official forums, not some facebook meme page. Why would anyone come here to spread positivity? You have twitter, reddit, FB is supposedly still a thing, discords, and many other media for that. OF is more akin to discussion forums and positive things simply do not spark the discussions, which is why narrative often seems skewed towards negativity. The fact that half of the posts nowadays are shitposts is another thing.

Constructive criticism != negativity. Reason why majority of us are here is because we do love the game, but we want it to be even better. I honestly have yet to see anyone here who seem to genuinely hate the game. There are people with different game philosophies, but that's fine, this is why we discuss in a first place.

So stop thinking that people here are the biggest haters, in reality, it's often people who love the game the most.
