I'm a little disappointed to see that the ffxiv community has gone from friendly and supportive to belittling and bashing people with different opinions. Even down to the point of just picking apart spelling and grammar.

I love ffxiv, i love the story and everything about it. But personally, ARR's gameplay doesn't really seem to be my style. Don't bother saying "It's in ALPHA" because gameplay styles are refined post-alpha, but not overly different) I will likely give it a try (if leveling can be done without kill x of y quests) because I want to love it, I really do. Granted, I don't make topics to complain about it because I'm sure there are more people who like it than those who don't. My question is that if this were a brand new game under a different franchise, would you guys be giving people such a hard time for not liking it?
