I was going to grind hundreds of hours of Blue Mage...

I think it's fine the way it is. This is nothing new. People are just unhappy they gotta pay is all.

Yep, so true! If you want content, you gotta pay for it. $13/month is nothing in these trying times. Do you people really think that’s enough for Yoshida to pay his bills? He needs more. How about YOU try keeping the lights on with only $13 a month. Yeah, didn’t think so. Be grateful you’re getting any content at all. Me? I’m buying a mount for me and all of my friends. In fact, if I could tip with my sub, I would. FFXIV is the best game I’ve ever played, I play 10 hours a day and have never run out of content in over 13 years. I’ve cried so many times in the MSQ (my record was six whole times in the last patch) and Soken (RIP) is the best composer since Mozart. You all are just so ungrateful it’s pathetic. PAY UP!

Seems weird to plan to grind blue mage for hundreds of hours based on the possibility of an unknown and unreleased mount being a reward.

I was planning to continue leveling blue mage because I like blue mage.

These people just play content for the drops these days, they don’t even care about the content. Me? I run content because I like it. There doesn’t need to be any reward at all. Besides, would people rather hundreds of hours of work in a video game for a mount or just an hours’ worth of real-life work? Obviously, we’d prefer the latter. Only one hour’s wage from moderating 4chan is enough to buy this mount from the store and I’m already superior to everyone else. Gameplay? Just for fun, guys!
