Subjective. Like I said, this is a slippery slope. There are fishing-stat exclusive items that come from those dailies so as someone who's only interested in fishing, I should be allowed to compete. It's not fair I can't be online.
See what I mean? I don't really subscribe to that opinion, but how is it any less valid than what's being said in this thread?
It's not really subjective in the way in which you're trying to present it as being. For starters the quest repeats every single week whilst in FFXIV you have to wait three months on average for a new patch and the increase in the number of housing wards and plots.
A weekly quest for fishing is by no means comparable to something as highly desirable as player housing. A lot of people may like fishing, sure - but it's unlikely to be something that the masses feel strongly about. Player housing, on the other hand, is typically something that is incredibly highly anticipated as evidenced by this very same discussion playing out across many FFXIV related sites.
