    We did not have all this "Make a harder version of X" before... What's happening? Is this caused by migration from other decadent games? I wonder.

    Starting to look worse, because now we'll have both 'nerf' and 'harder' sides clashing.

    If they made more difficulties, people wouldn't have to clash.

    They would, because the 'harder' faction would demand better rewards along with the difficult.
    The only way it would work would be releasing a 2 way patch: 3.1.1, with MSQ and hard mode versions of everything (all queueable trough the DF) and then a chatch up 3.1.2 with the normal versions 2 months after, with the same rewards.

    To be completely honest, I'm totally fine with the way Square is doing things now. The majority of players don't like hard content and DF content is on the right spot for them.

    And then some people will think they are the same group of hypocrites.

    Oh and eventually they will actually be the same group of hypocrites

    Cultural difference
    i dont know about US, but when i work in England, i found out European countries have much shorter working ours than ours
    working OT is unlikely in Euro, while it is almost a must in my country
    and our gaming is never the "hard content" when compare to neighborhood countries such as Korea and China
    furthermore, casual gaming have an increasing trend, it is actually more money making than traditional so call "hard-core" game
    it is always more favorable when someone come back form hours of work, can pop online do something with random ppl
    i know the Western are more "hard-core", but i think ppl have to stop comparing FFXIV to WOW
    they really aiming for different segment of players to begin with

    A noble sentiment, and one I agree with, but I doubt that it will ever happen, especially considering that the developers themselves have looked to WoW for inspiration.

    Inspiration comes in two forms: What to do, and what NOT to do.
