Bored now...

I find it rather interesting that people who are not bored tell folks that ARE bored of the game to do things they find boring.
Okay listen, some people find no fun in gathering, crafting & farming the mats required for them... And also not everyone like vanity gear or playing silly mini games at the golden saucer.. Lastly some people dont like leveling multiple jobs for the sake of "leveling a new job" ..
"Did you beat A4?" some people dont have time to join hardcore FC's that require you to dedicate 20-30 hours a week for raiding.. so no?

I agree with the original poster, 14 is boring. I've actually played since 1.x and 2.0...

As of last week i was bored to the point i cancelled my autopay, in a month my sub will be up and i doubt ill come back.

People really need to stop trying to justify achievements and golden saucer as "plenty of things to do" because they can't think of anything else besides the small amount of content we have.

I was sarcastically pointing out how narrow your play focus is by asking whether you capped your MGP since capping MGP would be one hell of a grind (maxint MGP....), but would represent a similarly limited scope of game play.

This isn't my first MMORPG, perhaps you think I am naive because I'm not bored?

Here is what I am hearing from you and posters with a similar point of view;
"This game doesn't give me enough content that specifically matches my narrow need so it's boring."

This game has a ridiculous amount of content if you look at the game as a whole. It caters to a very wide audience of many skill levels and goals. The developers have to balance what they create to cover all the different areas of the game. If more was put into the specific content you want to see, less would go elsewhere, and someone else would be annoyed. So they try to strike a balance. The fact is, in a big game such a this with a broad audience as FFXIV has, it's not really possible for the developers to keep up with your need for additional hardcore content over and above everything else. For players with a broader view of the content, there is literally so much to do, it is sometimes difficult to know where to start.

I understand that from your point of view the content is relatively limited because you play a specific subset of the game. Short of this becoming a hardcore only game, that's unlikely to change.

There are indeed things for you to do, you need not be bored. However, you just don't want to do them, which is fine, and your own decision. You know that FFXIV is not a hardcore game already, anyone coming to it will know it's not hardcore if they do even minimal research. IMHO, it's unrealistic to expect something other than what we have, and somewhat pointless to post about being bored.

SonTensei, it sounds to me like you already didn't much like in the game, and that's even before the rather off views of content. And more people are actually saying to play something else for a while instead of force feeding what 14 has to offer. But we see what we want to see, I guess.

I consider myself a pretty hardcore raider. But I only give it 3 hours a week, 1 across 3 days. And my FC is rather casual except for the 8 of us that WANT to raid.

If there's nothing that you find even remotely enjoyable, then you did the right thing cancelling your sub. I would ask why it took you this long, but it's a moot point.

This again op should post a one of the hundreds of I'm bored threads instead of making a new one.

You have one job at 60, and no DoL/DoH.

Level brd/mch/ast/blm to 60 so you can bitch about how they are too hard and/or weak at 60. Level your gatherers/crafters so you can bitch about how much of a grind red scrips are.

@OP Perhaps use party finder and make a party for;

(full thrust) (rear area of effect attack) (internal release) (Do you need it?)

Might help with your (bored)

Git gud, find a FC of gud players, talk shit about bad players in TS. You'll never be bored again.

This is why we never get attention from dev...

Hey Op know what I did when I was bored with the game? I logged off took a couple month break. I didn't come here to bitch and moan.

the boredom comes, mostly, from people that play so to speak 24h/24H a day and concentrate their efforts only on one particular aspect of the game without enlarging the Spectrum, not even playing the whole content just enlarging it. Obviously, after a short while, it gets boring. Alternating what you do, helps keeping the motivation going. Now if you dont like 95% of the content and only keep it to the 5 % you will get bored fast. If you are at this stage, maybe you should change game, as visibly the proportion of enjoyable content vs not enjoyable to you is wayy out of proportion.

I dont know how people can get bored...ohh wait they all rush rush rush and then..poof nothing left to do in their eyes..
