    When I did that quest I thought perhaps the writers were somewhat mocking us for our comments about the writing here, and I remembered that I made a some not-so-flattering comments about the new Lord of the Rongs series that was adapted for “modern audiences”.

    Well, FFXIV just had a patch yesterday that seemed to do the same thing. One of the biggest criticisms of their last expansion was that the player character took a backseat to an unpopular NPC who became the main character of the expansion.

    Yesterday they added a quest where another NPC was cast as the main character of a specific quest, and they have a dialogue option where your PC says "What? I'm not the main character?" and then sulks.

    I have no idea what is wrong with Devs who think poking fun at concerns of fans is a good thing.

    @katanagirl1 You can edit posts. I edit away typos all the time.

    Even doing it now with this one, and it will say it has been edited. If you hover over your post, there should be a little cog next to the comment number, you click that to edit.

    If you mean "Lord of the Rongs," there, then I'd just like to say for me that's a happy accident because I thought it was a joke and found it comedy gold lol.
