The OFFICIAL "I intend on Quitting, and here is why" Thread

[Zinato]

/sigh
I didn't say the trials were ok the way they were
I didn't say I don't want them changed
I didn't say buying was the fastest or most effective way

What I did do is ask if they were in fact sellable (I knew the empy was but was unsure of the others) I never got a straight answer to this btw though, I'm assuming yes.
I also stated my preference to completing the trial, my personal opinion. I wouldn't expect other players to do the same but, I also didn't count on my opinion becoming a discussion. On the assumption there is no changing the minds of the DEVs in regards to the final trial I would prefer wait XX amount of time (years if I must) If only for the satisfaction I didn't play by the Devs stupid rules. Again, this is personal choice no one is making anyone do what I plan to do.

As far as the 150k rift items I don't intend to reveal the players that put them up for that price otherwise it wouldn't be as easy for me to get them at that price. (If I decide to upgrade or just sell at a higher price for relic upgrades remains to be seen)

There is now a page of posts discussing my opinion.

[Tamoa]

Well then - yes, both the other items are sellable. I've seen the ADL item in 2 different bazaars recently, both priced at 30 mil. Check Vinner when you see him, he has the PW item in his bazaar for max gil (or at least he did a couple of days ago).

On the assumption there is no changing the minds of the DEVs in regards to the final trial I would prefer wait XX amount of time (years if I must) If only for the satisfaction I didn't play by the Devs stupid rules.

That's the point though - at this stage of the game, you shouldn't have to wait years to be able to finish a trial like this. You shouldn't have to spend 200 million gil (like someone else mentioned earlier, presuming the ADL item sells for 10 mil per, which I really don't see happening) to take your relic from level 95 to level 99, that's just insane. You shouldn't have to rely on 17 other people for help with little to no reward for them. At least not when we're talking about the time investment required for 10 PWs and 20 ADLs.

lmao are u FOR REAL? That quest is easy....

Are you serious right now?For what you get, the requirements are very easy.

I cannot believe you're quitting over 20 adl drops. lmao

My LS has 20+ relics. Lets assume they lower the requirements to 5. We still have to kill ADL 100+ times. If I could kill ADL 5 times and never have to worry about it again I wouldn't quit but the thought of killing it 100 times over the next year or so and then having to start all over on the new relics that people have gotten while we finished the first set makes me want to quit. I'm not a jerk so I don't intend on getting what I need and then telling everyone else to screw themselves which means if I want my elic I will be doing ADL 100+ times. Do you get it now?

If she had any chance of getting it then you two wouldn't be having this argument.

I understand what you're saying, I just think it's silly to quit over it. Especially since it's quite possible for you to attain. Now maybe you have to wait in line, but patience is a virtue, and you don't need every one of your relics 99. If that's all that's standing between you and quitting, well maybe the game isn't for you. This quest is not unreasonable imo.

Takes time, effort, team work, a bit of selfishness, sure. Unreasonable? Nope, not imo. Only from the point of view that people will have to wait in line and groups have to work together to progress on a single persons' weapon each time.

Don't quit over it though, it's not that deep. I mean we went from what it was going to be, to this. I say we got lucky tbh.

[Insaniac]

Any game where my LS is required to do the same exact event 2-3 times a week for a year straight and still not be done upgrading everyone's 99 is not the game for me. I have no problem with putting forth reasonable effort and even some unreasonable effort but being expected to do the same boring garbage event that half of the people there really would rather not be doing over and over and over with no end in sight just screams "QUIT THAT POS GAME!! STOP GIVING THEM YOUR MONEY!!". Even other terrible grinds like VW and Salvage had variation.

Really it's not even about this one single decision. The devs either do not get it or just don't care. When I came back to the game I used to be excited about update notes and dev posts but now I dread them. Half the things they do annoy or upset me so why should I continue paying so I can subject myself to that? There's all kinds of stuff I can do for free that will annoy me like waiting in line behind an old lady paying with a check or cleaning my cats litter box.

/sigh this is so true.

patience is a virtue

Patience costs $12.95/mo
