Final Fantasy XIV doesn't actually have that good of a story

[Voltyblast]

I have lost so many friends, so many people, so many potential friends, because I'm one of those who just don't like the story and saying that will always give you a black check on your name, and people will consider you a troll, a hater, someone who doesn't like jrpgs, and as someone who absolutely loves jrpgs since they were a child I always suffer hearing that. Because having a different opinion is not allowed and this left me alone, distrustful of everyone because knowing that all I needed to cause major ripples within my friends and I, was to simply say "I don't like the story".

I wish more people would respect my opinion for disliking the story as I respect theirs for liking it. But that doesn't exist in today's era: you're either a troll/hater for disliking something others like, or a complete fanatic who has to acknowledge everything, even the flaws.

Just had to let this out and since I'm quitting the game soon so it won't matter if people will search me out ingame to tell me I'm a horrible person: I will be gone elsewhere and hopefully for good.

Edit: had no idea this was a 2 year old thread, but I guess it's a good timing since I'm leaving. I take it as a sign to finally move on.

Edit 2: just to clarify, I'm only quitting the game, the dramatic tone wasn't intended: leave the poor gamer some slack for letting out something they kept for ten years, will you?
