FFXIV: The TTRPG

[aveyond-dreams]

I just think it's hilarious how a pretty great DnD style game released this year that gives people a lot of freedom and a diverse cast only for FFXIV to still want to try and drag the playerbase through another round of the Scions moralizing their way through another civilization, this time to save the people of the New World from themselves/the two headed lizard guy.

I can't look at this thing and other pieces of merch and not wonder why resources were wasted on this instead of improving the game especially in the state it's in.

Merch provides more money for the company, but resources to develop the merch is not taken away from CBU3. The merchandising dept has nothing to do with CBU3 other than a bit of consulting to make sure the product meets standards of the devs. So you'd rather there be no merch at all?
