That's been around a long time now.
I've actually seen that perk be a negative on Vanakii(sp) due to not being able to delevel to do achievements for rewards. Have seen people people basically begging for a necro to help delevel.
Seems somewhat disingenuous as gamepass is offering a lot more than just FFXIV. How many people are going to sub to gamepass JUST to play FFXIV on an xbox?
I'm not even sure why its age restricted. Nothing stood out to me as being over the top. Violence against monsters or something I guess? Maybe they algorithm'd Ian and thought he'd drop a few cocksuckers.
You can tweak a lot of the settings via ini. i had a server up but increased the rates of everything to a fun level since my friends and I only get ~ a week out of it before moving to new game(s).
A lot of games are like that which is one of hte upsides of VR. DCS not so much but god damn VR flying titles (DCS, MSFS, even VTOL VR) are so impressive.
