    No, not bait, but actually how I feel. Figured I would get somewhat crucified for it but just getting tired of all the negative stuff going on in the forums. Surely I'm not the *only* person who enjoys playing the game?

    Then why cast aspersions? You could just as easily have said you and your friends are having a great time with the game. Instead of stopping there, you chose to make inferences about other posters and their intentions. Every forum has its pot-stirrers, but your phrasing very much seems to be aimed at more than the two or three known trolls we have kicking about at the moment. Can't say I'm looking to crucify anybody. I just didn't see the need for the inflammatory remark tacked on at the end. If you weren't looking to post bait, then you kinda shot yourself in the foot with it.

    If you enjoy the game, more power to you. That's great. You have something you like doing and people to do that thing with.

    Many of those of us criticizing it aren't doing it because we hate it or want to cause problems or what have you. Setting aside people venting their frustrations, the objective of criticism is normally to bring about change or improvement. It's something people do when they care.

    You can enjoy the game, I largely do, but realize it has some glaring and deep flaws that absolutely aren't being addressed.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
