Congratulations on the shutting down Crystal DC

Idlers turn me off to an MMO. ERPers are idlers.

You forgot the part that this game is an MMO(RPG), ERP is a form of RP whether you like it or not. It's not my cup of tea and it never bothered me, I just let them be and be on my way.

People in Crystal DC don't do content.
Staying permanently afk in Uldah sharing "mare codes" isn't helping the community who does content on daily basis.

Has anyone performed a wellness check on the Crystal DC yet?

I mean they had a legit ass candlelight vigil on Balmung yesterday so who knows.

No changes in queues and whatnot, people are still here and doing content.

Seriously.

It's like seeing the meme about the man using a stick on his own bike wheel and complaining about falling.

If the Mare users had been able to be discreet about using it instead of making its publicity on every forum and even in-game - and so respect the "if you don't talk about it, we won't do anything about it" rule that has always been the rule with mods in FFXIV, maybe it would never have happened.

And also maybe if they weren't using assets & music from other games / media that would ultimately force SE to act to prevent a legal issue from other companies against them but that is another discussion.

You have it all wrong, op. Now that people I've never met and never went out of my way to see can't goon, plap, or bust a thick nut, this game is automatically salvaged. Every word out of wuk lamat's immaculately voiced mouth is like nectar from the gods, crafted by the finest penmanship. Imagine the gif of the man writing literal fire. That's what Dawntrail writing is, now that strangers i had to go out of my way to be affected by are no longer able to goon. Praise be to yevon. Our content used to feel one and done, and a lot of it felt overtuned or notoriously gated behind joining some guy's discord server, but now that some catboy somewhere can't visually depict himself bouncing on a horse dong, the content is perfect. It's accessible, with multiple difficulties to appease all types. It's rewarding and fun and can't be griefed by one guy determined to waste everyone's time. The jobs, which, prior to gooner 9/11 (8/21, a day that will live in the opposite of infamy), all felt like clones of each other, now feel unique. There's genuine synergy involved and I feel good playing even the simple content because the job gameplay is just that engaging.

In short, now that gooners are temporarily inconvenienced, it's safe to walk the streets and the game is saved. No content? What do you mean? Have you collected every piece of trash in limsa? Have you painted with the colors of the wind? There's so much to do. That's why this game gains players over time, obviously.

The event ship is a literal ghost town on Balmung now, which is impressive, as before there were so many people there it was dropping by FPS to almost 30.
Other than that, and constant complaints in shout, not much has changed at all... which was to be expected, really.

I doubt even a fraction of the people who said they're quitting actually will, be it because they were lying, or sunk cost fallacy. lol

Thank you Yoshida-sama for stopping the illegal third-party modifications to the perfect game of Final Fantasy XIV: DAWNTRAIL played by the greatest streamer of all time Asmongold! Now I will be able to play through the exceptional Main Story Quest of Final Fantasy XIV: DAWNTRAIL featuring the legendary, Pulitzer prize winning character Wuk Lamat and learn about papa and peace! We like this, you like this, this is peak Final Fantasy XIV: DAWNTRAIL (still the greatest MMORPG ever, aren't you glad that you're not playing World of Warcraft AKA Other Game???)

No goon, plap, sex, coom. Only the GreatestTM GameTM EverTM featuring the GreatestTM CharacterTM Wuk Lamat. I definitely like this!
