Edit: and the people that are yay-ffxiv will defend ffxiv no matter what it's about. content, gameplay, etc.
I think you're interpreting "yay-ffxiv" wrong. The people you think are fanboys are just more patient and understanding than others. I know the game isn't perfect and I don't support it in its current state but I have no need to create 50 topics over the same thing. Especially since I know they're working hard on revamping multiple systems. We just have to patient, Rome wasn't built in a day.

I think you're doing the right thing, play Rift/some other game, then come check out FFXIV when they update the battle system and go from there.
