Why is ffxiv becoming more and more unhinged
Met this total lunatic the other day who clearly lost the plot. You're supposed to just play the damn game, but instead, they have zero life outside of it, completely cut off from friends and family. They’ve somehow convinced themselves that an MMO is a valid substitute for a real-life connection, unironically begging people for actual, serious relationships. Shocker: nobody thinks that's normal. People ERP to get off, that's it. It's just pixels. Nobody wants you dumping your real-world desperation into the game and expecting it to carry over into real life.
Lately, way too many people treat FFXIV like a personal relationship simulator instead of a game. This person is literally still a sprout and is already tangled in reality-TV level drama. How?! I never see them actually doing any content. Whenever I ask what they're up to, it's always some non-game nonsense, like how they just caught their "in-game crush" cheating on them. What the actual hell? It's a video game! Have some fun, you miserable bastard. Go farm some useless Occult Crescent trash or grind for mounts. Why on earth are you on FFXIV if you're looking for a soulmate? Go get on Tinder! They're paying a monthly sub just to run around venues, play zero content, and hunt for drama. Couldn't be me!
