Thoughts on changes made to the game

[caffe_macchiato]

30/100 points. You can do better.

This game's community is a laughing stock to everyone else in the gaming world because of how overly self-righteous its fans are. You get less and less with each expansion and yet constantly beg everyone else to come play FFXIV as if it's the best game ever made. You refuse to accept that some people have opinions about the game. As we're headed into the longest drought in FFXIV history, the copes are becoming more and more outlandish. It's like FFXIV players are turning into a parody of themselves.

FFXIV is not the #1 MMO. It's not even the #2, #3, or #4. People legitimately see this game as not even worthy of consideration. Your friends will leave the game too and it will wither away until there's nothing left because everyone hates playing while hating those who also hate playing. Funny how that works. Whatever good used to be in this game has been replaced by "fans" bashing other people while they barely play the game themselves.

Are you going to bring anything to the table to address the actual points, or are you just going to keep copy-pasting your rants from other threads and pretending they have substance to them?

You can construct all the harebrained mythology you want about where the game's failings truly lie - there are plenty of real problems! - but if you come out swinging with 'story dungeons and normal raids aren't as hard as they used to be' and 'the TOS won't let me talk to anyone', you're not making an argument based in any kind of fact, and it deserves to be treated as such.

But hey, if you want to talk about arguments founded entirely on cope...

I'm content to count this as a point in my favor.

And yet, you're still here, giving them money and paying for fantasias.

So you disagree with Yoshi-P...why, exactly? I'm not sure why you turned against the director in this odd about-face, but he intentionally and vocally made the MSQ dungeons easier for solo play. If you had watched any live letter from the past few years, you would have seen that. This is not a conspiracy, this is a deliberate design decision. The director has talked about the gameplay changes at length.

I'm sure we're all pretty upset that FFXIV hasn't taken the mantle from WoW despite all our shilling efforts, but this isn't going to help our cause.

And yet, you're still here, giving them money and paying for fantasias.

And yet you are paying $13 each month to defend a multi-billion dollar corporation. You're not even doing it for free, you're paying for the privilege.

Final Fantasy XIV in 2023 is a lifestyle product. Like owning a trapper keeper in 3rd grade, it makes you a "part" of something without actually having to do anything.

This makes no sense. It sounds like the person you're responding to is enjoying the game. They're not paying "to defend a corporation." They're paying to play a game they enjoy, and pointing out how you in fact seem to continue paying that multi-billion corporation to play a game you don't enjoy. That would be the action that seems to make no sense...

[Boblawblah]

That is the worst version of that meme I've ever seen. Comparing someone who supports the same corporation they supposedly hate to someone who has no choice but to participate in society to have basic needs met. That's..wow lol

Oh oh! here's my cue! What exactly are YOU paying your sub for?

Which begs the question why are you here, if you're a real gamer you will cancel your sub immediately and go play something that worth the consideration of the gaming community.
