yeah yeah I know. The thing about FFxi was just the "usual let FFxi die you fanboy".

Thing is, there is no horizontal progression in FFxiv yet. So every tier is just coil + tomes. Every other content has to give lover reward or it will become the "end-all, be-all" way to go, and that's not what the devs want. So... nice idea, but not in 2.0-esque FFxiv
