    that just means that square isnt able to manage there own terms. and this isnt really encouraging to stay in the game because it proves the inefficiency of the company to manage a crisis.
    a "crisis" lmao

    it aint a crisis, you quite literally dont have to use them so... just dont ?

    Also a massive amount of the playerbase on PC that you talk about uses them in one way or another.

    Pretty much this too

    Actually it could become a problem because this games social features are really poor. They made discord for FFXIV/XIV? and this game is 'still' unworkable without it. Now as this rrRampant sexualisation becomes more prevalent *and these PFs contribute by normalising this* it evermore becomes plastered in 'every' discord community.

    I 'personally' don't like big bulging packages of meat and two veg on my hermaphrodite big hootered bun Bois for the same reason I don't like big bulging packages of meat and two veg on my male bunbois, because it 'hyper' sexualises the game, and it's not in keeping with the 'naive optimistic wholesome' FANTASY vibe that first attracted me to this game filled with it's exuberant smol folk and I find it 'Yuck!'. I make no apologies for my personal feelings about where I am comfortable with dealing with my own sexuality and where I am not. I just want to play a game.
    I left one community because being in it was just spoiling the game for me.
    But I'm starting to see it everywhere. This did not used to be the case. If I have to leave every discord the game will be unplayable. But a lot of these deviant discords of depravity are spoiling the game for me.

    I'm poking fun at it because I know ill come across as a prude, but it's spoils the game for me, and there is such a thing as too much, and these PFs are part of a growing trend that DOESN'T NEED ANY HELP TO GROW. FFXIV players be thirsty enough as it is. Bonk!

    As ever if it's just me then it's not a problem. I'll just have to leave. If it's not just me then there is a problem.
    If XIVs X rated shenanigans becomes the viral meme that defines this game in the wider community outside of those that actually play it, maybe even to those that don't game, then this game's rep is ruined forever. It will just be "that game for wierdos", and people won't want to give it a chance. Then the game as you know it is FCKd. I'd like to see some Nintendo style IP protection on this matter. It's been taken too far for the games long term prospects. If I was in Blizzards marketing black ops team, this is what I'd be targeting.

    Just do what you can SQX. I don't actually see what they can do. But the OP definatly has a point.

    I thought you said you were unsubscribing? It's been over a month.

    He is one of those people who are always yelling they will unsub only to switch to an alt and keep posting nuclear toxic-level stuff. He probably forgot to switch to his sweaty alt..lol.

    No I did. I came back because of the live letter, and another new in game social opportunity. I don't hold a grudge against the game. I'm one of those rare people who both uses the internet and sometimes changes their mind. Once e you factor in that you can use the forum for 14 days after your sub runs out it's was probably more.
    But if you want to think a character posting on a forum is liar with no evidence and that they are lieing about a game, well I don't give a F.

    "I came back because of the live letter" lmao.

    It's okay to not be able to quit the game because you're addicted to it or just too attached, just admit it.

    XD
    Fair enough. I maybe see your point.
    But genuinely, I saw the positive in the live letter. It worked for me, and when it comes to a game. That's all that matters.
    (The crafting moon thing seems like a total waste of dev resources though. Everyone is just going to macro it or worse. Right now it has all the appeal of putting on the dish washer, but a lot more useless. But its early days. We should wait and see.)

    Cc: Allen (you were basically right too)

    Well. You won. Coming back for the live letter was dumb. I cancelled my sub again. The social opportunity collapsed (game's fault) and so there is still nothing to do. Something might crop up in the remaining days but we only made it about 10 days, and now I'm bored of helping with EX3s for no reward. So this does not look good. I thought with a positive attitude the opportunities might arise but it's wishful thinking. A positive attitude isn't enough. I need to play mind games with myself instead, and I just can't.
    Like I say we'll see. But...

    ...Yeah, you sound like a prude who got too curious for your own good. This is a you problem. If you are being exposed to "big bulging packages of meat and two veg on my hermaphrodite big hootered bun Bois" and any other modbeast abominations trying to be invoked here, it's because you went out of your way to find it. YOU have to choose to join a modding syncshell. YOU have to join FFXIV Discord communities with NSFW gpose channels and then chose to view them. YOU have to be the one browsing modding websites to see some of the wild mods out there. YOU have to be following or searching certain terms to find this stuff.

    You can literally just not look at or engage with it if you don't want to see it. I don't like most NSFW stuff, so I don't go into those communities and discord channels. Problem solved.
