Honestly, both sides are guilty of this. On one hand you have the "white knight, toxic positivity" insults and on the other you have "whiny, entitled, don't like it get lost" crowd. Both positivity and negativity will get you attacked by someone here. People just like arguing too much, to the point where they'll argue for the sake of an argument regardless of whether they have a good point or not.

Thank You...someone else is finally saying it

I'm happy. I don't think this game is perfect but what game is? If playing the game ever makes me unhappy I'll stop playing.

Also both sides really need to stop bringing insults into their posts. Any post that directly insults other players for their opinions is automatically in the wrong and derailing the discussion (even mine if I've done so in the past).

Very true lol.

So we started an FC, and we are genuinly happy and excited to play the game.

On forums it's all doom and gloom. We are having fun. Why doesn't the ffxiv forum community reflect that.

Overall, this is a great expansion. Came back did ARR, so much better, do the rest.

It's a game, have fun. I love you all!

Between the msq continually worsening as it tries to pander to streamers and Twitter users who will make it trend, jobs no longer requiring an IQ over 50 to play across the board except the devs' favorites (blm, drg, pld), housing and glamour "fixes" amounting to next to nothing, content being delayed without seeing a noticeable increase in either quality or quantity, and them telling us not to get our hopes up for the content they themselves hyped up the most... no. I'm not all that happy to be honest.

People just whine and troll on here. Really the only issues going on are a lack of housing, and the Hrothgar/Viera hair and headgear limitations. For 99% of the population everything is fine.

Who made you the spokesperson for the whole community?
The only issues you say - yet the story and the state of healers are two huge topics. I rarely hear people ingame complain about Viera headgear limitations but that doesn't mean it's not an issue just because I am mostly ignorant to it. Classic "You're all just whiners, everyone else is happy" reply and a perfect example for the attitude of the "other side".

Buddy, these posts your complaining about are the only reason why FF14 is still alive and why 1.X is buried in the landfill somewhere.
Let people talk. The Devs don't listen anyway. Might as well have people actually feel like their voices are being heard.

Well given that apparently the forum won't let you post unless you've logged in within the past like 1 or 2 weeks... The unhappy ppl on the forum are apparently paying a sub just to complain... >.>

And what exactly is wrong about complaining? Or critizising something? Or being unhappy with certain aspects of a game?
Has it crossed your mind that some people do like the game but see some serious flaws and would prefer to have them addressed and for things to improve instead of just jumping ship? It is fine to be unhappy with things and voice concerns and it is still possible to enjoy other aspects of the game and have hope for it.
But if the response for everything is "then just don't play it" or "good thing the devs don't listen to anyone anyway" then we have problems. Not now or at least not for everyone but this is exactly the attitude that resulted in the downfall for a lot of other MMOs, not just WoW.

It's not all black and white, the "whiners" don't hate the game or pay the sub just to complain on a forum. Seriously, why would you think that someone does that instead of the much more logical conclucion that they are unhappy with some things but also enjoy enough things to still pay the sub? Just because someone doesn't preface every critique with a long wall of text of things they enjoy doesn't mean they hate the game.

This "you're all just whiners, go play something else if you hate it this much lmao" attitude really needs to stop...
