I'm not going to give up my values on this to appease anybody, and my experiences with this is the person who believes they can punch me into the sun tends to not want to talk it over, so it's not really worth the effort and time.
If this was a Dragonball Z MMO, then being thrown into the sun is possible, but this is Eorzea, and that level of super strength has not been seen or recorded by the games lore standards. If they want to call me a godmoder because I don't believe in their denial of the reality of the universe, then I have no problem calling them a godmoder for breaking it, but it's all very moot because I simply leave them be so they can continue doing whatever they want, but it doesn't have to involve me.
The trouble with XIV, though, is that we DO have some examples of this sort of thing. 2.55 ending cutscenes feature full-on environmental destruction, and the Hildebrand questline features a number of superhuman feats.
Not that I don't feel the same way as you do, but these are frequently the counterpoint to "realism" being invoked.
What Raubahn can do is considerable, yes, and as a scapegoat we can blow it on intense rage fueled by his emotions and adrenaline, but for anyone short of Raubahn being able to do the same feat no problem is a bit... disarming. heh
As for Godbert. He's a God. 'nuff said.
