I agree with this sentiment.
And for the people who are unavoidably going to spout the generic dribble about how "Content should be harder to promote Linkshell co-operation!" are ultimately forgetting that this game is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.
The "Massively" part pretty much speaks for itself, doubly so because it is capitalized. As to what effect having a word capitalized has on it's importance, you'll have to look it up for yourself. Anyway, it's capitalized, and that's that.
Now, why should we be playing a game that promotes it self as "Massively" (remember, capitalized) and have quite a good chunk of the games content force us to all segregate off into our little groups that just don't seem all that massive in the scheme of things? Just doesn't make sense fellas.
I mean, I understand the point of having Linkshells, I just don't understand why the community seems to think so little of one another you can't invite each other into your speed-run parties because you doubt each others' ability.
Though to be fair, a good 80% of you are horrible players and I'd never ever invite you to one of my parties. I mean, really, I hate all so much sometimes. So damn much. I know I'm generalizing when I say 80% of you are bad based on a very small slice but some of you are pretty damn stupid.
It's getting to the point where I'll just go around repairing my party members primal weapons and what-not that they have on repair request for one gil just out of spite.
Why can't we keep difficult content and you can all just step it up a bit and stop being so damn casual.
BLM/WAR onry players are the worst in my experience, and they play the jobs that are most desired for speed-runs, which seems a bit counter productive.
So in short, stop being bad at the game. And SE, stop putting in speed-runs because they are stupid and trivialise content, seriously it isn't heroic to plow through a dungeon as fast as you can and only goes to show how much of a joke the dungeon is if we can just waltz on through it like it's nobodies business and then get extra loot because of it.
