Sorry I can't help but laugh about it. You go in the game and read anyway so what's the difference if they add the lore to the game?

You misunderstand, I enjoy the quests but I don't exactly get on the game to go and read lore is what I'm saying.

Oh, yeah I get what you're saying. Just poor wording on my part.

That's cool lore isn't your thing, that shouldn't stop the game to be more engaging and full. I'm going to bring up ffxi right now sooo ya. FFXI did a great job with lore and story intertwining witheach other. If you wanted more lore, ya you can go out and find it in the game. Just because you don't wanna go seek it out or have it in game, shouldn't mean it should not already be in the game in the first place.

I don't wanna go on some website to see whats new, I wanna go in game and explore whats new.

All the Lodestone posts do is summerize what's already happened in the game. The only time I can think of that a post gave info that wasn't in the game was the first Easter event when the dodo hatched from the egg.

XI did this too for the longest time with the Vana'diel Tribune.
