B) I'm not a week 1 Clearer so directing you comment to me personally is jumping to conclusions. But I can empathise with said raiders.

C) Please elaborate on why the content is shallow and that a 1 week delay would further shallow it?

Speak for yourself only, you do not represent SE, nor do I. But how is this a bad thing exactly? If you are worried that a week's worth of tomes would be an issue then surely SE could stick to the same concept upon expac launch? Weekly tomes and savage come together.



Again, i'm not a week 1 clearer. I enjoy watching the story, doesn't mean I can't empathise with those who do feel more encouraged to skip due to the way the content is released.

Further, you realise they stagger a LOT of content right and purposely hold it back for the sake of keeping the patch alive for longer. The relic quests we get are almost always staggered so that there isn't "too much content to do" at once. Usually anything that comes in a patch X.x1 or X.x5 patch is ready when the main patches drop. BLU level 60 was ready back in SB but they purposely said they wanted to stagger releases on that for no other reason other than they didn't want the level catching up to current expansions max level so your arguement is flawed on a few occasions.

Regardless, if that's your stance then there's no sense arguing as we will always disagree on this matter. You are against change and fairness for all because it doesn't fit your standard even though there is nothing inherently detrimental to the change and wouldn't affect anyone anymore than the 2 week wait from normal mode to savage mode does.
Did you just say 2-3 hours of cutscene watching will rob someone of a week 1 clear? First if you think normal eden cutscenes will take 2-3 hours to watch you are sorely mistaken (and thats what people are talking about, not MSQ) and 2nd, if 2-3 hours rob you of a week 1 clear then you aint trying for a week one clear.

I was responding to your post, you knew exactly who it included and are now just playing dumb

Fairness for all? Huh ? Let me change how content rolls out because of something somebody elses static is making them do. Yes, that is total fairness for all...

Why is the content shallow? Because it is, no other MMO out there has a more casual endgame then FFXIV, and was openly admitted by yoshi that its intended.

what's with this "speak for yourself" nonsense. You just said you arent a week one raider so none of this even applies to you right? Right? No, I am very ok with saying that nobody should have to cater to someone because of a choice they are making.. PERIOD
