agree...

the raids "look nice", but have even less interactions and originality than the pre level 50 raids of ARR.. (they could seriously add more interactions, like random mazes, edges you can fall off, more dodging element etc. etc... it mostly just mindlesss aoe, aoe, aoe then a few single targets, only the bosses are original)

same goes for the fates....

and now the peek of "non creativity" goes too the new relict weapon... (its like they got enough players now an ARR.. theyre only focusing on FFXV).. and the "unsynced coils/primlas isnt really helping either..

ARR is going down the road WoW went.. (and will lose the title "best mmo of this gen" if it keeps it up.. ,if it hasnt already lost it)

Since "mojirity rules" I would wager to say that the MMO that's considered the "best" would have never been FF but rather WoW, due to WoW still having way more subscribers. Too be honest, I've seen nothing really new that FF have that WoW didn't already have or have implemented during FFs runtime. Sure, the ability to lvl up all classes on one char is nice, but it's kinda ruined with the abysmal costumization with gear, lockouts and having no talentsystem at all, making it realisticly impossible to actually "really" play multiple classes on one char anyways. The craftingsystem and gatheringsystem is better, more involved, but crafting falls flat when you realise that it doesn't really "matter" in the end since there's easily opbtainable replacements for anything you can craft. Other than the classthing and crafting, I can't really think of anything that FF have done really different from WoW, and the stuff they have done differently are done in such a way that it doesn't really "matter".

doesnt have to be "new", just better, ...more polished + better balanced (and over all better looking) to be the "nr 1"

eitherway... Im soo close to taking a break from FFXIV till the next update (or 2) and play Xenoblade Chronicles X (and later on DS3) in the meantime

EDIT: we should boycott this grind, till they simplify it ...and add more content.. this is the first time SE is treating us like mindless sheep, they just might do it again, if we swollow it... (and Xenoblade X and DS3 can fill the gab till SE changes + adds more))
