PvP Lore

[Pibz]

Yeah this sweet lore (we didnt even get a quest for the new map..) sure is worth crappy queues, imbalance between teams and not been able to play with whoever i feel like..

[Kurogaea]

So, there's supposed to be a lore behind Frontlines—for some reason the grand companies can't agree on who gets. . . control over the Carteneau flats and the Allagan relics—right?

Then Seal Rock, we're downloading data from Allagan relics with our USB flash drives to bring back to our Grand companies scientists so they can do stuff with it—and it'd be a shame if another grand company got a hold of that data so, kill them with fire—right? Or is it WiFi? Is that why the S ranks give us more data faster? It's because they S ranks use fiber optics—isn't it? O

It's WiFi right?

Agreed. The PvP lore is lazy. :/

the faster the lore is removed in favor of getting rid of these asinine queue restrictions, the better

They originally wanted to flip a coin, but coins only had two sides. So the only logical solution was to get their Second Lieutenants (and possibly some other lower ranks) to slaughter each other instead.

The lore of PvP still has my number one favorite line of all time in FFXIV:

Guy:"Try not to think of it as "war." Think of it as organized conflict for the sake of gaining territory..."

Me: "Hold on a sec... Lemme find a dictionary..."

In all seriousness though, I don't know why they're still trying to cling to this nonsense. They abandoned the concept of lore with Seize (no cutscenes, no explanation, nothing), and it didn't make sense in the first place. The MSQ has completely moved past the Omega issue, since

Taledji Adeledji is dead and Lolorito admitted that he doesn't give a damn (not sure if we can trust him on that, but for now it's a mute point)

,

and even if they had somehow worked PvP into the MSQ and Omega became a thing, THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT OMEGA WOULD HAVE BEEN PVP RELATED. It most certainly would have been a raid or a trial or something.

Bottom line: this was PvE content, and PvE problems.... so... why are PvP'ers being punished for it??

Even with the GC restriction they will jump to your GC anyway if they think its the "winning" GC. Get rid of that crap restriction already. Besides I think it would be kinda fun to go up against some of the people I've been teamed up with anyway.

More like tree therapists really, what with the elementals' first reaction to problems being "Start killing everyone indiscriminately." I sure wouldn't want to live there.
