I've been taking a break since the start of the year, as I'd ran out of things to do, Odyssey hit and I beat the bosses, but I just couldn't face spamming them to get new armour, to make me more powerful, with nothing new to beat. I came back for the free log in, but find people I know are mostly quitting, left, moving on, is this common?
I always thought of my linkshell as casual endgame, never any strict rules, we all did stuff to help each other, more about the fun than rewards, but dynamis died over two years ago, omen before that, what do we have to do....
What is FFXI now? Is it animal crossing, more a place to hang out, rather than accomplish anything? It's fantastic that they keep the servers open, and give us content, but not challenging content is more like a retirement home...
thoughts an discussion appreciated
