Some of us go on vacation for a couple months ^^;;;
You are not a casual player, that is the problem. This game is designed for casual players. The super grindy/RNG bits patched on at the end are really just that, a make-shift patch in an attempt to...
It seems, as was the case in 1.0, that 'Grinding' is the solution here to keep the most active (hard-core) players occupied until new content comes out. I do not think it is the best way.
How to make Casual and Hardcore players happy (depends on the definition of casual/hardcore but here goes):
Complex and challenging battle mechanics and equipment customization. Where...
I know it was like this to begin with, but I think since Commendations and Kick? Feature, this has toned down. I haven't seen abuse at all in DF since then. Of course, the 'being nice' bit is still...
Yaay balmung! *wavies her flag*
The game is specifically designed to be easy.

The buff is designed to even further help casual players who do not have time to try and try the...
The demographics being excluded here are those who are interested in in-depth/challenging battle mechanics. As well as those who are interested in equipment/weapon customization. And those who are...
This game does really cater to the Casuals, with Coil and Atma slapped on in an attempt to entertain 'upper end' gamers. Ignore coil and atma, and you quite literally have a point & click game you...
I have not done T6-T8. I keep playing the game.. then sort of giggle at how simple the battle mechanics and equipment optimization is... Then get bored and log off. I'm one of those rare people...
Not always the best course. And of course, in appealing to multiple demographics you are of course excluding certain demographics. And one group of demographics that will get excluded from here are...
Not sure that recognizing there can be many times of games excludes me from that ^^; That being said, this game does not really cater to the 'hard core' crowd (battle mechanics are really really...
But here I would have to sadly disagree with you. As a business they can choose their target audience:
'Casual' -- then build a game around this target group.
'Upper End' -- then build a game...
But you don't. There are hundreds of games out there. And this game (like all other businesses) can pick a target demography and cater to them. This game could have been the: jRPG with English...
'He'?! You need to socialize more if you can't tell difference between girl and boy ^^. Obviously for some people winning is fun. But the point is that the game was not designed to cater to those...
Quite right, and one of my disappointments with FFXIV (1.0 and 2.0) was the limit on how many people could engage an interesting enemy (Dungeon/NM). I never cared for the artificial limit, and would...
If you study social behavior you learn that 'social activities' are the 'backdrop' to socializing. They offer a platform in order to achieve the main goal of socializing. For example:
You go to...
All is not completely lost... with a few changes, things could be made better:
1) Cross-world friend/black list, so we can stay in touch (or ignore) those we meet in DF.
2) Cross-world chat (so...
Good point! Costs to make games have gone up so much, that they only way to recover it is to make it mass appeal. This is different than games of old where it could easily be niche due to low...
Is it possible to just spend an hour or two a week doing it? Rather than spend 10 hours in one go doing it, spread that time over a few months. Maybe be done in time for the next patch?
I didn't mind the 'Sky/NM/HNM/Testimony/Feather/Darksteel Ore' grind back in the day, because doing those activities were fun, and the reward was just the icing on the cake. Okey.. Darksteel Ore was...
I don't think they gimped him when I did him. I did him when there was still a level 75 cap, and before the Corsair/Etc. jobs were released.
I'm not sure if I got lucky or not (he did all the...
I would suggest you continue the main storyline (it will unlock things for you). Then do the level 50 related side quests (for fun). Then pull up the list of 'quests that unlock things', and go...
This game is very oriented to casuals. You do not need to be obsessive about gaming, or spend time analyzing every little detail to get ahead. Nor do you even need to spend a lot of time.
You...
I remember doing Maat as an RDM. Spending a lot of time to get the testimony, getting an elixir, thinking out a strategy. I planned to go in once and just see how badly I die.
I beat it and set...
