My first 72 hours since being gone for two years...:(

[Brandr]

So let me understand. Merely because I didn't directly acknowledge your comments in which a person can may agree/disagree with...that automatically 100% means they didn't read your post. Brilliant logic there Brandr...top marks! Truly...
And with your second comment, now I know you are a forum troll that likes to harass legit criticisms by claiming I have never played this game. Truly a person who has never touched FF14 once would know the info I posted originally at the top of my post. Keep on trolling Brandr!

That's because right after the first few lines I DO AGREE ANYONE HAS TONS OF REASONS TO LEAVE THIS GAME.

But what you say is the opposite of that.

No human being would be remotely surprised by people leaving a game after SIX YEARS. You strangely is.

You say this game is souls-like, without even playing this supposed souls-like content. And criticize by hearsay.

Funnily, you do have valid reasons to stop playing: your friends left.

But you're making it seem like other people say has more value than your own insight of things.
