Stop being so hostile in the game

[Fiscr]

It makes FF14 a very hostile place to be

Unfortunately this is not a FF14-thing, but an internet-thing. Some people are either huge trolls, or they forget, that they're talking to other people and lose all manners, when they don't physically have a human being in front of them

And yes, nice french players do actually exist Please don't be so quick to judge all of them over the misbehavior of a few of them.

nice french

What are these mystical creatures and where do they hide?

I dunno, I've played many MMOs, and FFXIV has been one of my worst experiences community wise.

I don't think such strict server restrictions to only allowing cross server communication in performance heavy content helps things. I have personal guesses about other reasons, but I won't mention those here.

trust me, there's much worse ^^
but FF community seems to be at the top when it comes to entitlement, and feeling offended about anything. as well as rose-tinted nostalgia glasses, and hostility towards new ideas. I played Tera for a while, and i was ahead of the wave - was among the first to hit lv cap - as a result, there was hardly anyone to do any content with, so i went back to earlier hubs, where there was more people...and holy crap...the chat channel there...
It was like jersey shore, but with sociopath kids who are competing over who can be the biggest douche. I just turned off the chat, and went back to high lv areas, then quit the game shortly after. It was a bit surprising, cause it was P2P at the time.
But basically how it goes: the more players there are, the more bold the douchbags, get - they are still there in small communities, but they would easily be singled out and blocked - while in heavy populations, they become just a little pebble in an avalanche of idiocy.

Aion has the worst community for an MMO that I have personally encountered. I've even had their forum moderators tell me to go kill myself because I suggested improvements to the game's downloader. And this was in the first three months of launch. Trust me, 14's community is far tamer in comparison. Could still use some improvement, though.
