Why aren't you subbing to Final Fantasy XIV now that the trial period is over?

I haven't really decided yet if I'll give it another month but it's not looking likely right now. Knowing what end game is like I am purposefully delaying reaching that point. It kinda works but sadly leveling all the different classes is just as tedious. I get the idea of having all the classes in one character instead of a bunch of alts. It's a solid design but unfortunately they have managed to make leveling your alt classes even more boring than leveling was in the pre quest era of MMO's. FATE farming is just on a new level of awful when it comes to leveling.

Not Subbing.

-Inability of SE to take care of RMT shout when they are so obvious.
-Inability of SE to respond at all when you report BOT Mining, move hack etc.

-Crafting have absolutely no use except if you buy gil from RMT an get the side grade ARMOR from it.
-Economy is a wreck, Market Board is the worse crap i ever saw in MMO. (Should at least have a 10% FEE just to modify the price)
-The lack of KICK BUTTON in DUTY (too many player end up griefing or AFK)

-Many of friend ended to play on a different server due to 'SERVER FULL' in EA... and i have to pay to join them now, NO THANKS.
-Best Reward are from QUEST GRINDING, and when you done with that part, is GRIND (Garuda HM) (Ifrit HM) (TITAN HM) Prae, CM, Coil etc.)
-Unable to talk to friend when they in dungeon, conversation is brutally interrupted.

-90% Materia have no use...
-Lack of balance in DPS job and Tank job.
-Dungeon CS interruption none stop + Random CS aggro.

Tbh, i should just list the good part of this game instead, that be quicker.

-Graphic are nice.

Ok, done.

Done all the content pretty much.

Full darklight and relic+1
Up to Turn 5 in Coil
50 Bard, White Mage, Paladin, Goldsmith and Miner

Besides I could use a break. You kind of get sick of a game after playing it for over a month straight.

My reasons:

• Game plays like a bulky, even more simplified version of WoW
• Gameplay is repetitive even by MMO standards.
• Lack of any substantive lore
• Story is boring
• poor design (constant cut scenes mid-battle, no ability to vote kick jerks, no way to easily mute people, poor user interface)

I'm subbed for a few months and I'll give 2.1 a shot but unless things get way better I'm probably just gonna end up jumping ship.

The game is out a month, who can come out with a game like this and have constant content so fast, have a little courtesy and faith, ya know? When I picked up FF11 I was kinda let down but it grew rapidly like a chia pet on roids, just give them a chance, I mean you spent money on the game right? It's at least worth waiting a little longer I mean what's 10-15$ anyway? A nice breakfast or dinner?

Just lost interest. Maybe I am oversaturated with MMOs. Could not even level up to 50, as leveling in this game is boring as hell. Had more fun leveling in The Secret World, for example, where quests are more interesting and you actually have interesting text to read ;)
Fighting system was not impressive, and overall the game was too much "been there, done that". It's a good MMO, but after hearing that endgame is just silly dungeon grind, it just turns me off.

I enjoy a crafting system that makes a real difference and gives me cool stuff and satisfaction. That I do not see here.
Overall, there is just not enough to keep my attention, and it just bores me.

Hex Alpha starts this week, I will be quite busy playing that and Frozen Synapse. I also need to merge Skyrim mods, as I have reached the mod limit and there is still so much to do :D

TLDR: The game fails to attract my attention as it offers nothing besides "been there, done that". Will enjoy other games.

Only the game has been out for years, they just botched it the first round and it looks like they're doing it again.

500,000 x 15$ = 7.5 million US, i now wonder what you eat for dinner / breakfast? O.O

I didn't subscribe.

Reasons:
Not enough quests.
Jobs are the same not enough specialisation/customisation at all.
Server latency issues where people are out of the ring and still get hit.

Those are the main reasons I didn't sub, everything else was great but unfortunately feel short for me.

I think people subbing are doing it for the future and potential. In its current form without improvements people will leave, and you cant blame them. The game has charm, but it doesnt feel like 2013 mmo. In some aspects its stuck in the pre WoW everquest era, and even crap like Lineage 2 does a lot of things better. Love the game, but improvements and content need to come ASAP.
