And I don't think you realize how important end game raiding is for this game. Should I remind you what happened during 3.1? It only took one misstep with gordias savage.

If we're going to discuss about what kind of content can be removed based on the number of players that take part in it, we should say goodbye to the gold saucer and pvp first. Hardcore raiding content is what keeps this game alive for players at level cap. Just think about what would happen without all those hc raiders that create guides for other players and stream on twitch/youtube. The game would instantly die.
