Cute..... its a figure of speach... in most cases with all food you need to boil water, veggies, eggs, paste. You sound like your watching the pot w/o looking away then screaming at it to boil.

Go do something else for a while.

for me, I want both fun gameplay (new combat system/rebalance) and endgame contents

Even if I'm taking a break I check almost every news soruce I can daily just to keep up on the news, really the suspence is whats killing me rather than anything else.

I think i might be JADED. So I'm going to afk a bit i will keep up on the game but not post for a bit. I do want the game to be Fricken Awesome!!!!!,. Just going to take some time. But most, not all, but most of what i said is true. Also ya i get the boiling water but i was being funny and stating the obvious..

1. Because FFXI content would not work with the current battle system.
2. Because FFXIV's battle system is being redesigned, therefore content cannot be made that will work in the long run.
3. It's a hell of a lot harder to port things from one project to another than all of you with no programming experience believe. Most of the time it's better to start from scratch and build from the ground up than it is to port. Especially going from an older generation game. It's running on old tech that has to be completely overhauled. Content does not appear over night. It does not appear in a month. There's a huge process things have to go through before they see the light of day.
4. Please do let the door hit you on the way out.

I agree. The game is pretty much unplayable to me at this point so all I can do is wait until they implement some better design choices. My BF also quit the game a month ago the leves all started feeling like one quest that you're repeating over and over no matter what class you're playing as.

anyone getting all classes up to 50 needs to rethink about how their lifes are being lived. Not to sound rude or anything but jesus some people just grind themselves out and wonder why the game becomes boring.

It has flopped already, did that day 1.

The truth has been spoken~

if you guys want the game to be awesome, don't post doom and gloom. SE already heard it, all they want is construtive posts about what you do like in game and what changes or ideas. give details. Maybe talk about what you do like a bit. If you don't like anything ffxiv has to offer, then take a break. Promoting the game a bit will help it become awesome. We are doing better with the FFXIV SS post, we could sure use more of those type of threads maybe player made vids. Even if you just promote how the game looks. One reason this game "sucks" is all the negativity. It kinda is a buzzkill for those who do like the game who also know it can improve.
