Unwritten Rules of XIV (Fun/Humor)

[Malzian]

All civilizations featured in the 24-mans had a disproportionately large number of belts. (Side-note: Consequentially this is why you rarely find their pants, tops or robes anywhere.)

1. All the content in this game is so easy a monkey can do it.
2. At the same time, 90% of this player base is full of ice mages, floortanking dragoons, and people who don't know how to play.

I tested by intentionally playing poorly through all the solo content.

Still never even close to failing. I had to actively try to play horrible (I was a drg, I had to spam an end combo ability for things to be too difficult.)

it's more a joke on how players keep saying everything is so easy, but in the next breath complain the average player is no good. I mean...if the average player can't do something, it's not easy its hard.

Lets rephrase it then: The game is not punishing in the slightest, and does a poor job of training a player to deal with punishing content

Anything connected to story is easy though.

It's the unwritten rule that the story must be easy so everyone can enjoy it. Again, I did have to actively try to fail anything in the story.

Mine's more of a rule for the ff14 community

- Any content me and my friends don't personally do is content "nobody" does

[Enkidoh]

If you have a quest or Hunt bill that requires a specific FATE, that FATE will then not spawn for 3+ hours.... where as if you don't require it, it will always spawn frequently (Giant Seps I'm looking at you ><). Maybe the enemy senses your bloodlust.... or maybe they're just psychic.

A quest or FATE title will always have a punny name taken from a TV show/film/game/anime/manga/cartoon/comic/novel/song/band name/some other element of pop culture or a figure of speech. No exceptions.

Don't piss off the healer!

I don't touch the Hunt (the A and S ranks) because it's usually a waste of time.

The thing dies before I get there, or I get there and nobody will throw me an invite and I end up getting bronze and next to 0 reward for my time and effort. No thanks.

It's just a badly designed system that I've never bothered with.

The daily hunt things? Meh. The XP isn't good enough, and the clan seals... I've never really seen anything that I could really buy with them that I'm all that concerned about. End up blowing a ton of money on teleports because of course half of them are on one end of the map and the other half are on the other end.
