Sorry to burst your bubble here but the people who dont care about the game have left the forum. Because there's no reason for them to stay if they dont care.
The trolls don't necessarily care for the game but stay subbed in order to troll and bait on the forum. But I'd agree with the assessment that people who do write here for legitimate reasons, do care.
People don't care about the game they want the game to catter to them regardless how bad for the game what they're asking for is. People who left the game are people smart enough to move on with their life and not crack addict that hate every feature in the game but still pay.
Yeah I’m sure there’s one or two that are legitimately trying to help raise awareness to problems in the game, but they’re typically the exception, not the rule.
The forum is mostly the same old trolls doing the same old trolly things. Then there’s the continuous chorus of nay sayers, drama queens, and just generally negative people.
I had hoped it would be better than other community forums, but it’s up there with them.
You disagreeing with those people doesnt mean they dont care for the game. You wouldnt ask for a game to change if you didnt care about it. You would just leave.People don't care about the game they want the game to catter to them regardless how bad for the game what they're asking for is.

At least it's not as toxic like wow forums. That's always something lolYeah I’m sure there’s one or two that are legitimately trying to help raise awareness to problems in the game, but they’re typically the exception, not the rule.

We could use more up front toxicity imo. Most of the toxicity here is lame, petty snipes and passive aggression.
To be fair, raiding used to be all about "suffering hours on mechanics" to develop the strategy and achieve a sense of accomplishment when your group finally succeeded. Whether people with the opinion that data mining's "ruining" raiding are old-school/boomers, crazy, and/or simply prefer to go blind and figure things out through trial and error is up to interpretation. Personally, I believe the prevalence of data mining's done a lot to decrease my enjoyment of raiding as common opinion is people should read a guide/watch a video and memorize it before going into a raid to better bash through it as efficiently as possible. Now that I say this, in my opinion, it's a game-wide phenomenon, not just a raiding thing.
The best times I've had raiding were back in Vanilla WoW when the forty of us bashed our heads against encounters, developed our strategies, and had a massive cheer-fest when we finally succeeded. I'll prefer this method over all others for as long as I play MMOs.

You just added to it since you complained yourself![]()
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
If i'm honest, I'd much rather see threads about people's concerns about the game rather than situations like the subreddit, with low-effort screenshots, memes, cosplays, fanart, etc.
