    I really don't like using this sentence but "this may not be the right MMO for you". This is not meant as an attack though, but simply a loose quote on how Yoshi-P stated that this is how he sees the game. He purposefuly avoid any content that requires you to stay engaged for too long, because he doesn't want people being forced to log in at the risk of falling too far behind.

    I personally don't like this view, and would love to have really long term goals, but, whatever population each future content catters to, I'm afraid that's the thing we'll most likely never have, probably because 1) "casuals" covers the biggest part of the playerbsase and 2) "non-casuals" will resub/stay subbed to do casual content but the opposite is not true.

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.
