#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Aravell]

I'm calling the thread pointless, because it's in a place that maybe 0.01% of the player base will ever use, and you cite a video that has over 3k views, which is good, that means someone here had enough sense to do so, rather than just continually spouting "I'm not going to play healer for DT." like them saying anything is going to make an impact in regular joe schmoe's life in the game, who doesn't use the forums, because Discord exists. I just don't understand the idea that sitting here in a forum thread is some how the smartest play, and is going to get the most traction for the changes you're looking for

I don't think you understand the point of this thread. We don't expect massive sweeping changes immediately, most of us are just tired of the healer role being so shafted every single expansion so we're just choosing to no longer play it. This thread is to connect with others who feel the same way and spread awareness of the issue.

You can see most of the people who are joining will say that they don't expect anything to change immediately. If this whole thing ends up impacting the queues and makes the dev team rethink, then that's great. If it doesn't, then it doesn't matter to most of us because we'll be off enjoying other roles/games. Most people have already given up on the healer role after 6 years of stagnation anyway.

We are not trying to enact massive immediate change, we are tired of how our role is being treated and choose to stop engaging in it. That is the point.

It's not your role.
It's CBU3's role, which they give you the opportunity to play.

You think it's a big deal that you don't want to play it? That's very egocentric of you.
I don't want to play a lot of the classes CBU3 makes available, but do you see me complaining?

As long as there's one class I like playing, I'm good.
As it happens, right now that class is SGE. Lucky me.

Literally where are we making a big deal out of it? Where do you see people saying that us not playing the role would result in its downfall? Literally where?

The only people with ego are you people who think that your opinions matter more than ours.

You can't even let us quit the role in peace, you have to come here and naysay everything. Ridiculous.

Trying to organize a strike, setting up a discord server of rit, and promoting it on social media isn't making a big deal of it?
I get that it's an exercise in futility, but still, what y'all are doing is a bit more than the usual healer-classes-suck thread.

Personally, I think it's more egocentric to tell players they aren't allowed to want something ...

And when did I do that? Never, that's when.
Want what ever you want, but as the Man in Black said in TPB, "Get used to dissapointment."

So we're not allowed to connect with other players who feel the same way and spread awareness of the issue?

I never said what anyone was allowed to do, either.
Even if you can't actually counter what I post, please don't make stuff up and then pretend I posted it.
You're not doing yourselves any favors by doing so.

I play FFXIV [and] eat disappointment for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I guess you must enjoy doing that then, or you'd stop, right?
Well, tastes vary, and there's no accounting for it.

Ok then. Pop off then, Miss Gatekeeper.

Stop being such a spiteful gavel-basher and go pop another insta-queue instead.
