Genuine Question for Frequent Negative Posters

[Astronema]

I post frequently my frustrations because many problems this game has a blind person could see and offer solutions.. I've never seen a development team where basic things could be solved using any an illegal mod only for the devs to try to adopt the functions of that illegal mod later while procrastinating in the process that it is coming soon. Chat bubbles I see you with disappointment.

For me
-I don't enjoy the game now. You get two weeks free forum access after you last 'login to the game'. That's what it checks.
That's when I've done 90% of my posting.

- Originally I wanted the Devs to hear mine and 'all' my friends-who-have-left's problems with the game (multiple times now, they insta quit before trying chaotic when they heard it was savage not Ex, and about the PF abandons. I'm not proud about the effort I've put into trying to clear chaotic. Honestly I'm kind of ashamed. It's worse than embarrassment. What a waste of my own time. I'm so Fing good at p1 now. It's mostly my own fault I feel really bad for the 'from start' parties trying to fill so I always go there to help out. And they ARE struggling, i've seen people just devastated as their party get to 2 places short than just collapses after hours. It's SQX job to fix that so I don't have to. And they could. Tomorrow. The premade discord gatekeeping parsers won't be happy but they don't care about me and mine so I don't care about them.)

-Then I do like those occasions when I'm made to see something I never saw before. Jeeqbit is a hero. They've made me take notice multiple times. I love to be wrong. Then I can make it my opinion too. Bonus I get to be right now.

-I do ENJOY debate. Argument.

-I also enjoy good scrap with a troll. Guilt free collateral damage with no real damage. That lala troll (I call him king of the lalas) I enjoy shifting mental gears. It feels like I'm exploring strange new territory. I don't Reddit twitter or 4chan. I hope they are trolling. Id feel kind of bad if they weren't. That's being badly misunderstood. ... Allen, that's it.

-When someone is sincerely condescending, yeah then I like to have a scrap. Condescend to me and I won't have guilt about giving it back. Don't expect me to consider your feelings if you don't consider other people's. (Don't misunderstand that I'm upset that you think differently from me though, I'm not. Also, I'll assume you are probably somewhere on the socio/psycho-path low empathy spectrum and don't have feelings much in way that I can 'connect' to actually hurt. So I don't have to worry much.) Yeah I do enjoy the primal urge to lock horns, then turn around to fight another day.

-Then, THE BAIT IS REAL! Give into the bait! Be one with the bait! It's like standing in a storm, there is no denying the rawness of it! Chaos!

-I'm living in my own world where I imagine someone is 'interested' or challenged by what I have to say. And occasionally it is true. I don't expect everything I say to achieve adding value.
-I also kind of just enjoy writing.
"Dear diary..."

-Some of it is just chit chat. Something makes me laugh and I respond with something stupid.

And while all the above is true, I'm bored. There is no denying, that if I could just go queue Chaotic in DF, because they rewarded non-premades, and punished Premades, and lowered the reward thresholds accordingly to make having a mount to show for it a realistic prospect instead of the nothing you get for Extremes also, (why does everyone turn into an a-hole once they hit farm?) then yeah, I'd be there now not here. (Yeah I don't like MMOs essentially, not the whole random low unknown drop rate. I don't expect them to change the game for me in that respect)
Adore prog. Adore story. Adore playability. Hate studying guides. Hate feeling I should be sorry for not yet being good, because I'm not sorry. Hate abandons and "you're a prog liar! pants on fire" whiners, so I don't like farm. (Rather play for 50 mins no reward, than queue/play for 30 then wordless poof, often for 1 person making 1 mistake, after we already cleared, or after just 2 pulls.) Hate sitting in PF doing nothing. Hate one hit Press X tank and spank mob farms.
Oh, hate dealing with discords and their parsing critiques, and their toxic banter (also in twitch speech that I don't understand anyway) while I'm struggling to concentrate on the fight.

Here is an idea.... (Not sure it's mine) you need to clear a fight to 'unlock' rewards.... and now you get rewards just for time spent helping or hitting prog points with parties! Rewards proportional to the prog point. Only if your there 30mins,bail before then.. no rewards.

Really late edit because another negative XIV vid in my YouTube popped up to remind me... I forgot one major thing today I liked about XIV...
Social #1. Social. I like having lots of friendly people around who just wanted to join people for the sake of joining them. Me join them. Or then join me. Peopling saying hi and excited to be in an instance. I'm was in a really hard working medium large FC, and it was just just dead. Gil farm maps (not maps for maps sake). New sprouts that never chatted. And high end cliques doing whatever their personal goals require. No asking people to join them, no one interested in joining me. My guess, it was pure savage raiders with mates from their statics, and the only sprouts were Xbox console loners that dint use chat much. I've got no idea. But there was no social. And again it FC leader couldn't have worked any harder. Social. I know there is no hope of making meaningfull friends who are gonna stick. A sub costs money. The game has to be good, and certainly not shit. The game now... it's so stale if you don't love your memory games and press X battles... it is a bit shit really.
Square, I don't want to misslead you with the noise of my other complaints, whatever you do you have to rebuild social other than add-on RPers and high end focused goal chasers. You have to 'warrant' 'deserve' having the full gamut of casual social (not leave it to the mod makers to deserve it)people dubbed for 11 months a year.
