And that is a major problem within community.

Hey OP, people also don't care that you don't care if people are subbing or not, some people like to read why others won't keep playing and funnily enough, it can count as feedback to the devs onto what the game may or may not be lacking.
People have bought up legitimate reasons as to why they don't want to subscribe, though. You can white knight against it all you want, but the simple fact of the matter is this is people's money we're talking about. If SE is not giving people a compelling reason to continue paying for the game then it is a problem that needs to be addressed.
And that's a huge problem right now: FFXIV is ass-backwards when it comes to content. Even if the 1-49 content is beautiful (and it is), the Level 50 content as it stands now is abysmal. This is 2013, and the "Grind the same three things over and over" model MMO just doesn't fly anymore. FFXIV is a game that works on drawing people in, but does absolutely nothing to retain them.
People keep saying more content is coming; that there's more on the horizon. But the first month or two of an MMO's lifespan is the key timeframe that makes or breaks it. If people don't see anything worthwhile before subscriptions drop, they're going to hit the road. Nobody outside of the most dedicated fans and wikipedia warriors want to continue paying for something that, as it stands, has no depth at endgame.
Rofl it's a game no one cares. Lol Fan boy rage its not like a life changing event why post about it?
A little proofreading. That's all I ask.
