This isn't meant to sound nasty, but it's the truth. There's plenty of single player rpg's out there that will offer the type of enjoyment that you may be looking for.

Is 14 the first/only MMO you've ever played? Many others, including beginning mmos have had viable solo content.

i'mma be real, I had no clue. But the point still stands...

This post is slightly over a decade old, but it holds up even in Dawntrail.
Doesn't help SE is doubling down on protecting a particular unit with their call for censorship that rhymes with 'siena dryer' after selfsame unit committed the very acts SE considers banning/censoring people for.

Holy 10 year necro, Batman

That's a niche some of the relic weapon steps are supposed to fill, but they tossed that out in Endwalker and arbitrarily decided Relics shouldn't start until .25 at the very least.
Field Operations would have worked for this if they just implemented the mechanics in the field zones instead of making them separate duties that stop you from queuing for anything...

Like people saying their quiting because some lil 15 year old a hole is giving them grief...seriously. How about you use party finder and make a inexperienced group and run some dungeons problem solved.

this has only got worse

The game's been dying since the day it started, depending on who you ask.

Hell, if you count 1.0, this game died before it even started.

But it's fine to die and come back better. That's why we liked A Realm Reborn. What we're struggling with is A Realm Declining Into Old Age And Stuck In Its Way.
