I find it completely sad. (Questing)

I find it very difficult to believe someone who claims to be a 'roleplayer' in their sig actually has not been actively following the game's storyline by actually taking the time to read every bit of dialogue on screen, making this thread nothing but a sad attempt to troll. FFXIV's lore and story is incredibly deep and is actually being constantly added to and refined, due to the original lore/setting being the creation of a team member who no longer works for SE (Kenichi Iwao, who I understand was originally a writer on Capcom's Resident Evil series), thus the current lore and writing teams (headed by Banri Oda and Michael Christopher Koji Fox) have had to fill in the blanks so to speak and fix or improve things lore wise as the game has continued to develop.

And given Koji Fox's continued interaction with this very forum (mostly in the Lore section), and the fact that he and Mr Oda (and the rest of the lore/writing/localization team members) have stated how much they enjoy crafting the game's lore knowing that players actually take notice of it and are really becoming immersed in the world they are developing, your comments are extremely insulting to them and come across as ignorant and condescending I'm afraid.

This is not an attack on you Nektulos though, and if it seems like that, I'm really sorry, but I just cannot accept your claim that there is no lore information mentioned in game where in actual fact the game is full of lore. You just have to open your eyes, and 'hear, feel, think.'

Aren't they making a lore book?

In any case, if you learned nothing about the city states and their surrounding areas while doing the MSQ, then you didn't pay attention, and that's your fault.

I realize this is a troll thread, but given the amount of lore people on these forums know about all of these things, maybe you aren't actually looking for that info.

Why are people even posting here? Don't feed the troll.

Not because he's a good troll, because boredom.

Or just use the ignore feature this forum has. It's quite handy.

Click user's name, view profile, click "add to ignore list". It hides all their posts, but it still says that they posted something. You'll still see their posts if someone quotes them as well.

Just like in life, if you don't pay attention to the details, seek out more in-depth information and take somewhat of an active role in learning you will know very little about things.
There is tons of information and more about the game-world and the people that live in it, you just have to engage the world more instead of just labeling it stupid and avoiding it while expecting to have it brought to you on a silver platter and then shoved down your throat.
