I still laugh that in 2023 that this many adults have such bad time management and can't dedicate 2-3 hours to a game you pay a 15-20 dollar sub for and probably already spend most of your time on. Theres every excuse in the world to just go vibe with a few friends and grind out a relic, this isn't even about content. I just remember as far back as ARR theres always soemone I see online every day all day seemingly having an issue with just playing the game, yet the people with jobs and kids and who arent on seem to be able to get their relics and in no time flat.

The issue with XIV relic content at least in NA isn't even about the grind, it's about the fact that people are gonna be held to a standard in group based content, it's about the fact that it's not just given to you, it's about the fact that people have to leave their comfort zones and randoms won't tolerate their attitudes. It's that simple.
