New Roadmap and FFXI's direction

Imo the design team could add alexandrite to the new version of nyzle isle as potential drops. With nms having a chance at singles and floor bosses dropping a pouch.

As for plates. zilart and jeuno tier 3s could have a 100% single plate drop for each personal chest and the tier 4s they are working on have a higher pouch rate then what current tier 3s have.

This way the currency part of both quest is still challenging but the cost will also become much more plausible.

Everything would make sense if the usefulness of the weapon really did equal the amount of work put into it

Mythic quests just shit all over that theory though

<Game Over!>

Why is it impossible for a middle ground to exist? Why are our choices .2% drop rates (literally) inside of the worst loot system ever conceived or so easy you get it first or second try? If SE really gave a shit about people sticking around they would give them goals to work for. Neo-dynamis for instance is a daily grind that is going to keep the average player busy for 6 months. Voidwatch on the other hand is a complete crap shoot where you make 0 progress towards your end goal. You just pray to beat the odds and your chances are pretty freaking slim if you are after the good stuff. That is the kind of content that people give up on and quit over or just decide to not do because it's a massive waste of time.

It is a bit WTF that the upgrades are smaller (especially considering the 5 level increase) yet the work increases exponentially.

Well I won't be burning my brains out doing this 95 stage until I know what 99 looks like for all the weapons.

Will do Bravura if Relic is generally the winner,
Ukon if it's Emp,
or Ryunohige if it's mythic.

Till then there's not much this game has to offer.

Cheers Kaerin, Odin will miss you. :(

That's a good idea to leave. I noticed that after the most recent patch expanded Voidwatch, all the Abyssea maws spontaneously vanished, and they added a note to the Terms of Service that says Voidwatch is now required.

In case you're not getting the point, this "I quit" thread is like every other one; a complaint about the newest fad masquerading as legit criticism of the game as a whole.

Then when it gets to that point they will complain about servers being shut down and wonder why.

The game has thousands and thousands of players, and the complainers are a handful of people. These complaints have been around as long as the game. People who are fed up with the game have an inflated sense of importance and figure "If I don't like it, nobody else does!"

I heard the same thing 6 years ago, yet somehow the game is still here and apparently still profitable.

Dunno why people make such a big deal about someone quitting. They quit, they are gone so what? People quit all the time this isn't something new. lol When FFxi dies well that's too bad. Get over it and move on. lol Nothing lasts forever, everything has an end.
