    Wow, another level-headed player enters the thread. Thanks for the solid response! I agree completely that the true underlying issue is lack of content. SE kind of shot themselves in the foot with some of the post-75 gear they've released: they made all of the usual 75 cap endgame events obselete for gear/chracter advancement! This has destroyed/devauled a lot of content and now SE is in a bad predicament for XI. We do need more content to keep everyone happy, and only getting things like VW or Nyzul Uncharted is not going to please some of their playerbase.

    I don't want to see SE in the same boat on XI as they are in XIV. They release new content once every 3 months and the playerbase is done with it in 2-4 weeks. Then people leave for 2 months to wait it out and save money. I think a token-based system would lead to more people cancelling their subscriptions or disappearing for 2 months at a time. "I checked this out, got the drops I wanted, and now I'll see you in May!"

    I've explained my argument multiple times. It's a VALID point. You're spouting the same stuff over and over
    When your idea is so simple yet people don't seem to get it, there's not much else to do but spout it over and over again. I don't see anything valid about your point. your point is "boo hoo, now other people's luck has a cap on how sihtty it can be. Woe is me!"

    The parameters for this suggestion are such that it has no chance of rendering content prematurely obsolete. Really, what is the chance for the average person that a piece of content is NOT going to lose its luster after a couple hundred times? Pretty low I'd say. This feature is specifically designed to ensure that content gets a certain amount of *enjoyable* playtime, while reducing the potential amount of unenjoyable, "my god i'm sick of this I just want to get the drop and play something else, I give up" playtime.

    I don't want to see SE in the same boat on XI as they are in XIV. They release new content once every 3 months and the playerbase is done with it in 2-4 weeks. Then people leave for 2 months to wait it out and save money.
    Hm? This doesn't happen in XIV. The game is actually kind of fun now. Probably because it's now being directed by a guy who knows at least what the word fun means.

    You are so dense, man! I'm going to stop replying to you just as did Karbuncle in another thread. There's no point in it. "Your idea" should not be implemented and my main goal in this thread was to voice some opposition so that SE's reps don't note 100% agreement on this piss poor idea.

    I'm not dense. Nothing I've posted even says "dense." You're just dead set against a perfectly reasonable suggestion. Your only purpose in this thread is to reduce the amount of support to it. You don't even have a reasonable, raitonal explanation of why you're opposed. You're just opposing it for the sake of doing so. The fact that you're using rude terms like "dense" and "piss poor" just reinforces that. Your behavior borders on trolling, so I'm just going to ignore you at this point. There's a difference between being opposed to an idea and going on a holy crusade against it.

    This suggestion doesn't hurt ANYBODY, and doesn't even affect most people. It's virtually harmless.

    Going 1/200 isn't going to kill the game. Going 0/200+ is. There really is NO reason to be against this. Bringing up shared loot pool is not the way to go since SE has already stated SEVERAL times, that they will not be doing that with VW. So really, are you are trying to do is beat a dead horse, when someone else is coming up with an alternative.
