Please release nest Normal and Savage raids at the same time.

They don't force you to do the content, you do it yourself, if it's not fun, do other things, people act like FFXIV is the only game ever to exist ever in the world and there aren't any other options other than twiddling thumbs and that's just silly.

If you wanted to do Savage when it came out, you had to do normal. So yes, if you wanted to do Savage, you were forced. Doesn't matter how you call it.

EDIT: I meant that you had to farm it to be geared.
