    What do I mean? Well, McDonalds sells Big Macs, right? If you like a Big Mac, you might eat it twice, three times or a hundred times. Sooner or later, though, you might get tired of eating Big Macs. That extra bread in the middle is starting to bug me. The tangy sauce is the same amount of 'tangy' since day one. The meat patties don't reach the edge of the bun.

    Do you:

    A) Write a diatribe on how Big Macs should be changed for those with evolving taste, despite the fact that a million people around you enjoy the current, 2021 Big Mac; or
    B) Pick something else off the menu, or even find a different place to eat.

    The fact that people spend time doing "A" doesn't make sense to me. This game ain't like castor oil. Millions of others enjoy it, all day every day.

    If Big Mac sales fell to zero, I could see people saying, "...well duh, make the patties bigger!" But the Big Mac sells well. FFXIV sells well.

    Instead of writing a diatribe on how the Big Mac should change to fit certain tastes, pick something else off the menu or if that doesn't cut it, find somewhere else to eat!

    Good luck.
    On the surface that may sound like a fair argument, however, what you failed to also point out in your example is the fact that we don't have to buy big macs at all. We can go down the street and buy a whopper from Burger King instead. Big Macs are an option we can have, or walk away from at any time.

    Do we have that same option and freedom of decision when it comes to dungeons? Or are they forced on us during basic gameplay? If we had the same freedom to use, or not use, dungeons then maybe I could agree with your example.

    So basically what SE is telling us is... we have to eat the big macs whether we like it or not. Is the sauce bland? Is the bread dry? Too bad. This is how its served... and we have to eat it.

    The OP is just simply saying... continue giving us the big macs. I have no problem with that. I'm just asking that you put some salt, and maybe a sprinkle of pepper in the sauce. If we don't have the option to walk away from the dungeons... then at least make them more fun to use.
