If you're unhappy with this game then unsub... forever.

[Zabuza]

People underestimate their own power. If all those who were unhappy just... stopped paying. Things would change. For FFXIV and gaming in general. Yet we complain and continue to happily pay. Those in charge aren't going to feel bad that we're unhappy with the game so long as we continue to pay them. They're not going to suddenly find their morals and decide it's the right thing to do to listen to the players.

The answer is there are too many trolls on this forum who just want to change the game to benefit themselves and not others.

Pro tip for life: you get outta life what you put out into life. In other words be the change you seek.

If I wanted life advice I’d go to a therapist, not the 14 forums

Hey if you want to pay for that advice it's up to you. Enjoy!

I’d be more impressed if OP showed an image of destroying their account permanently than just unsubbing which isn’t “forever”.

Leaving doesn't either so /shrug

Honestly, the only reason I'm still consistently subbed is because a lot of my friends still play FFXIV, and I enjoy the raid content. I'd probably have taken extended breaks by now if not for those reasons.

This is basically me.

I also think all of these "vote with your wallet/stop complaining/go away" posts are disingenuous concern trolling at best. These people don't give a rat's ass if you have a good time or not. They love sloppy game design and want a forum full of uncritical praise for the direction it's been headed.

They want us gone because we point out that modern FFXIV coddled their laziness. They don't like this.

these people just want this weird toxic positivity that they love so much

I don't care whatsoever if people sub or not. Not my money, not my time. I just dislike posts with the following:

1. Random personal insults that have nothing to do with the discussion.
2. Theatrics and hyperbole, kind of like the post I'm responding to.

No one here wants a forum "full of uncritical praise" nor do they "love sloppy game design." These comments are just absurd and fails to see any nuance and what posters are actually saying.

Posts like that I guess make more entertaining content though, I suppose.
