If end game content became based on the current quick-spawn HNM system and the current style of raids, I feel like people would only come back for a week after each patch, eventually find another game that involves them more and that they feel like they can "invest time" into, and leave FFXIV completely.
Pretty much how I feel.

On another note, I don't think the previous thread even really got off topic o.O
