My in depth review of FFXIV:

[Scootaloo]

You have zero credibility as a reviewer. You pretty much have proven that you are cynical critic. Nothing will please you, and for some reason you think the world must know it.

As far as difficulty, that should not determine the rating of a game. Some of the most simplistic games get excellent ratings and provide hours of fun. I'm only level 35 and have yet to reach end game content.

The difficulty of a game has a very big impact in most games. This isn't some little 16bit facebook game we are playing here, this is a Final Fantasy title and it has an image to upkeep. and the company knows this. I also look forward to said challenging content.
