    Small talk ? Going after people to talk to them after a roulette aint normal, perhaps Mao needs to rethink a little, it's creepy to do that.

    That's what I'm saying.

    I've been playing this game for 10 years and nobody has ever reached out to me after a roulette. If it was so normal I should have encountered sound of it by now. But because it hasn't, my first thought is going to assume the guy messaging me wants something more than humble chit chat.

    I'd soonertrust random dms in Limsa.

    Imagine socializing in an MMO in the year of our lord 2024. Absolutely absurd, it's very cringe creeper behavior that one admits to trying to make friends in a video game of all places!

    Stormy pls

    Or we're just being realistic that this doesn't happen a lot. I asked 5 of my discord friends and they each said they have never made friends from a roulette. Its one if those sounds nice on paper but doesn't happen a lot situations.

    tbf even if it does go well, it doesnt matter to me, I aint gonna hunt people down after roulettes to pretend that they are a social experience, it's a speedrun with literally 0 difficulty, these people are actually not right in their minds to think it's okay, it's creep behavior and it just shows how desensitized people are in this community

    How is it not normal? Uncommon? Rare? Totally agree. Not normal? Weird? Creepy? That perspective is on you unfortunately.
    As someone who was stalked and harassed on EU for over a year and a half, yeah that aint right, sorry not sorry.

    If after roulette I get a dm from some random person from the roulette, I'll question why they are in my private messages, and rightfully so

    Your personal experience, while regrettable, isn't the sole outcome possible of talking to randos after doing stuff in a video game. Don't paint your perspective as the only way things work and laugh at others who have different positive experiences.

    You all play nice and try not to quibble over technicalities instead of focusing on actual points, got errands to run. Have fun~

    How do you make friends in real life? Striking up conversations with a random person more often than not.

    Helping people that have never experienced the content or are trying to learn a class and are clearly struggling, helping people who are returning to the game, like I said other people have different experiences in the game from you. The same logic can be applied to Eureka and Bozja, in the end it's not very hard it's just more of a time sink then roulettes. Nothing is really lost by not tying relics to an exploratory zone, they can easily be removed from both and people will still not only play both but manage to get the other various rewards from it.
