Why are people complaining about the relic nerf?

Have you considered that not everyone here wants to treat playing a videogame as a second job? Not saying they shouldn't require some effort to obtain, but by and large these complaints don't stem so much from entitlement, so much as expectations as to what they want their games to be. Can you at least respect that?

So don't treat it like a second job, run an hour a day and you will still get your relic. While I don't have an issue with the relic nerfs, the "second job" attitude is entitled, as you expect that the game will give you the same rewards for less effort because you can't play for reason XYZ and you expect that the players who got the rewards the hard way to respect you because "I don't treat the game like a job"

This is how I feel. If anything this motivates me to get more relics. I don't care if Newperson Newnew gets the relic easier now. It doesn't lessen the feeling of achievement/relief when I got it months ago at all.

people complain about everything these days. This is to hard, that is to easy, something is different from FF11, females got this glamour and males not, this dance looks better on males and so on.
It's a new generation of players where the game has to change to their liking instead of people just accepting and pulling through it the way it is.

It's not just here it's everywhere in any game now.

seems like the complainers generation if u ask me :P have to feel like a special snowflake all the time

Well, I'd say those are the new players or just been around for less than a year whose complaining

It has always been like this since 2.0, nothing new under the sun
No ones gonna do an outdated gear for the same amount of time when it was one of the high tier gears. If the zodiac relic was as time consuming today as it was (looking at you atma/animus) back then, does people honestly think that players would do it? No

Besides, they released i235 weapons recently and that takes what? 2 weeks or so? this change is warranted

I really don't get why people complains about the nerf, you did it the hard way I did the hard way twice when it was RELEVANT, keep that word in mind, its not longer relevant a 210 wep is 30 ilvl below the current stage, its not like they are handing the 240 to everybody.

In Novice chat one was raging about the 210 step and how he just lost alot of money cause nobody will buy his crafted items required for it. Seriously?

Novice channel sounds about accurate.
Who would make relic items just before a patch when just about everyone speculated there'd be some sort of nerf coming? A novice

[Khalithar]

Could be worse, they could have nerfed the 230 step

It will happen I'm sure.

Fair enough, but you are kind of misinterpreting my point. Players are a diverse breed and nobody really as the right to dictate how much time a person spends on a game, aslo assuming the reasons involve "entitlement" or a desire to be hand-holded is a completely narrow-minded viewpoint that rarely ever engages the people you are arguing with and comes off as being dismissive.
