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

[Zarchery]

I'm thinking about it, because I've sorta run out of stuff to do. I finally finished all missions a few days ago. I have all the equipment I want for WHM, BLM, and MNK. I might stick around a while longer to finish up BST +2 feet and hands, and get the rest of those abyssites.

Really everyone, if the game is causing you undue stress and decreasing levels of joy, it's time for a break.

Its not the game thats causing "undue stress and deceasing levels of joy", its the constant bullshit that SE spews out at us, then tells us "oh well make it more justified, we actually WANT people to complete this content", and then spew out more bullshit which maybe 5% of the playerbase will be able to complete.

Naw, There's a metric fuckton of stuff to do in this game. The problem is that none of it gets maintained or updated and the devs use archaic methods to focus all of our attention on one or two bits of new content.

I would put time back into this game(lots of time) if quests, bcnms, missions, trials, assaults and other events were updated/polished a bit. It just sucks to log in and see everything that was fun collecting dust while another lame NM system with shitty drops rates gets added every year.

And yet we all pay....

Nope, not me anymore. My accounts were cancelled a few days ago. Not sure when my forum access will be yanked...

Thinking of picking up TERA again, there's a big update coming soon with new gear, areas, and higher levels, and I don't have to pay for an "expansion" either!

Nobody quits FFXI. Prolonged breaks, vacations, haiatus, sure. But they all come back.

That's why you gotta go out with a bang. Curse all your friends out, and run around waving your privates. get the character banned just to be sure you don't get suckered back in.

Nope. The Dev team has nothing planned that would lure me back, and we all know how long it takes from planning to implementation. I'm done running on the hamster wheel for almost no reward. They just posted "new" requirements of 5 ADL items for relics, but that is still out of reach for me.

I'm surprised I can still post... probably only because I haven't logged out of the forum since my accounts were deactivated. If I close this browser tab, I'll probably be cut off.

Its no longer billing on the first its 30 days from when you payed to when they kick you.

After 10 years, and the stuff SE has been doing since 90 cap, I think its pretty safe to say people that are leaving now, prob wont be back.
