Happy New Year, Warriors of Light.
I've been trying to get myself to want to play FFXIV again, quite hard. Listening to OSTs on Spotify, combing through unread conversations about it, reading the official forum for lols... it's just so damn hard. The community has always been decimated because of troons, but I reached my breaking point with them, to the point that I unsubscribed at the time despite owning a house. The FC I was in seems to have gotten infiltrated by them, unsurprisingly because they banned talk of Hogwarts Legacy when it first came out (regardless of the people there who did like it).
Probably will return still for Dawntrail's new Jobs, but man, I hate the idea of FC hunting again.
