What have you never attempted and probably wont ever?

I have never read one quest conversation or watched a cut scene through all of the xpacs. i click through or skip the CS.

Paying for a subscription just so you can post on the forum of a game you don't play seems like a rather expensive hobby.

Savage ... i have been a raider since EQ1 and i just don't need that drama in my life anymore. Hardcore raiders are a bane on most MMOs.

Treasure maps, and synched content (extreme and savage).
I usually wait for the following extension to do extreme and savage content on unsynch, but I started to work on it this time. I did Innocence extreme and Memoria Misera (not cleared yet but got to P1 and P2) and I'm very proud of myself :)

I'm pretty sure they meant it as a joke.

Ultimate, unless it's WAY off content. I'm good with being on the more casual end of Savage progression, but I don't think I could handle trying to prog Ultimate.

Ultimate stuff. For now I literally can't attempt it even if I wanted to because I've cleared none of the raids that unlock any of it.

Also don't see myself bothering with the Ishgard restoration stuff; the NPC themself alluded to the system being potentially confusing and my only reaction was "you can say that again" and after seeing that there's not really much incentive to bother with it if your non-combat jobs are already all 80s and geared up, I just left.

Necromancer title. In these covid-19 quarantine days I thought to myself "Ea, how about we give necromancer a try?". I died to a stupid mistake on a low floor and decided to lookup videos of what the upper floors were like... Yeah..... nope. Probably not out of reach for me but definitely more hours than I want to spend in palace of the dead.

Ultimate/Savage... Used to enjoy stuff like this when I was younger, but I don't have the free time for a static anymore or the patience to deal with randoms in the party finder.

PotD/HoH solo clears. Actually would like to, but it takes so much time and patience that I'll probably end up deleting the game before I will finish even 50% of it.

Become a mentor and get the mentor mount. I’ve seen way too many friends suffer in that roulette to ever bother with it.

I like helping sprouts, really I do. What I don’t like to do is help vets who are too lazy or impatient to use PF bang their head unsuccessfully against Rathalos Ex for an hour day in and day out, which seems to be my FC mates’ current experience with it.

As someone who thought it would be a great idea to make the daring attempt and has actually tried, I can 100% confirm this. I learned my lesson lol
NEVER AGAIN --

Ultimate/Savage, thought I would give a try but my planning doesn't match the requirments.

Jump puzzle

No contest Savage,

the normal trials formally known as raids were fine but when I think endgame raiding I don’t think fighting one instance on a platform. Also most MMO has a inevitable sink hole of “So now what”. Have all 505 raid gear nice...so now what? Go afk until 5.3? Which doesn’t even feature raid content? Again I don’t expect FF14 to fix this issue but at the very least have Raids. Even the Neir stuff seems super tame compared to Monastery. Imagine what they can accomplish? Trail bosses seems to be the only thing they haven’t screwed up. Can’t wait for 6.0 dungeons to just be 3 bosses

Savage
Eureka
Golden Saucer (might have unlocked?)
PvP
Playing a lala

Buying a house, such a waste of gil and effort.
Apartments 4 life. You can make them cozy and cute and they'll never disappear on you.

Fishing doesn't interest me in the least.

Healing, or any magical job for that matter, it's just not my thing.

Haven't tried pvp or tanking, I might, might not.

Also, I've never used fantasia to change my race, I am what I am.

Slow going, so there's plenty other things I've yet to do, but nothing else I can think of on my never list.

Ultimates.
Also I refuse to unlock mahjong or touch the cactaur jumping puzzle gates in the gold saucer. Else I think I've at least dabbled in literally every type of content in the game, from ranked feast over big fishing to lords of vermilion

Hard one as I try out everything to see if I like it personally or not, really only 2 things have I gone nope to, Agalope mount, I run the mentor roulette as and when I want to fully expecting extreme trials and prepared for needing to fully explain even bare basics at level 80(but this isn't content in the context of the thread), the other thing Templeleves I have never done one told before I finished HW story how bad they were by friends who decided to try them out as they were new and got rid of leve allowences just to be returned with mediocre rewards where better to just do 10x normal levequests vs 1 templeve.

Savage content. I dont like making a game feel like a job. I like hard/complex content but I dont like organizing multiple people into hard content. Puts a sour taste in my mouth. End-game normal trials/raids are toxic enough, but atleast you can get by with randoms on those and never have to see them again.

Also, Sea Fishing. I dont like RNG systems much.

Things that fit both requirements:

• Soloing group content
• Savage/Ultimate Raiding

Things that I've done I'm not likely to try again:

• Normal 8 player raids
• Unlocking any more group content than necessary for story quests that interest me

the only thing i have never attempted...

Getting a relic weapon.

Mahjong
Most likely any relic quest after anima
PvP
Any tank job

Housing. Almost impossible content.

majong
lords of verminion
savage
ultimate

-EX/Savage/Ultimate in general; Not a single person I know seems to enjoy doing them
-Mahjong, Chocobo racing, or Lord of Verminion; meh

Discarded - -PvP; I got the Seal Rock helmet once, attempted to go for the coat, realize it's impossible and never tried again
Discarded - unlocking and leveling all jobs; as much as I hate it, I really want that bird.

I forgot about LoV and Mahjong!

Yeah, those.

Extreme/Savage content

I did my time doing the really hard stuff in EQ - never again am I ever dealing with that and the drama it brings.

I think it varies from person to person. I enjoy Savage Prog a good deal, but I'm also part of a mostly casual static where we raid for four hours on the week and no one gets huffy if people are having a hard time parsing the mechanics for the most part. And even if we get frustrated it passes pretty quickly and we're all back to normal a few minutes later or the next day with no hurt feelings between any of us. If I was pugging it or was in a static with people who weren't so laid back and fun to be around however, I likely wouldn't be enjoying it half as much as I am.

Those games in the Gold Saucer where you jump platforms.

Healing jobs.

Crafting.

Just never been my thing in mmos. Grinding or farming stuff never bothers me, but I cannot stand crafting.

Majohng
PvP Ranked Verminion
High end Chocobo Racing/Breeding
Serious TT collecting
All the Gold Saucer GATES

...Guess Gold Saucer activities never clicked with me. They all seem really convoluted, restricted games that give next to no reward and rarely get any real content updates.

That's odd. I can't speak for Ultimate, but I love doing them. For me it's the place where all your gearing, your leveling, those countless dungeons and trials you've failed in, learned from, tried again, learned more ...actually mean something and gives you a goal. It's a challenge where your 80 levels of work and practice finally pays off and has purpose. It's fun to see how far you can go and improve, at least for me.

To me, it's always seemed like Normal dungeons and raids are the ones people don't seem to enjoy. They just want to rush them, get out and have their roulette or such over with.

At this point, really the only things I haven't done at least once are pvp teams and ultimate, maybe tt tournaments and lord of verminion tournaments.

I've done nearly everything there is in the game at least once.

I can get to ~180 reliably now, but disconnects counting as deaths have killed a lot of 8+ hour deep attempts. I didn't rage quit the game but I've definitely moved on to other things for awhile LOL

To the topic at hand: Nothing, probably. I want to squeeze every inch of this game dry. Everything from blue mage to relics and crafting, to savage and onward. I find myself constantly drawn to a new rabbit hole every time I finish climbing out of one.

Edit: I must correct myself. I'll never touch pvp. I have games for player vs player configurations, and find it mostly tacked on in MMOs and arpgs. I don't care what glams come out of it, I'll never touch pvp in this style of game.

I think that's it. I mean, I'm not a competitive person by nature, but can see the enjoyment in pushing yourself to the limit, yet, I personally don't consider it worth it if it comes with stress and fighting between teammates, whether they're pugs or friends/FC. I have 4 friends who do savage and 1 that did (does?) ultimate, all of them have their own statics, and every time we're on Discord or I'm visiting there's that awkward feeling as if I'm witnessing a toxic relationship, only one of them doesn't seem to want to throw his keyboard at the screen so....yeah, not the best impression of what kind of environment that is lol

Ultimate Coil of Bahamut. I want to, but I dont have the time or the folks to do it with.

Otherwise...

PVP. I WILL NEVER TOUCH PVP. I HATE PVP in games.

Chocobo racing/ breeding
farming the tank mount
PvP
The latter is a bit odd because I usually love PvP, spammed battlegrounds, did arena matches, camped the abyss, played on PvP servers and charged at every player of the opposing faction I could find while leveling, even if they were higher level or outnumbered me. If it's red, it's dead. Simple as that. I never camped or ganked people but if I saw a PvP flagged player run by I just couldn't resist smacking them. If there was a skirmish at an outpost I would jump in headfirst and completely forget what I originally wanted to do on that map. But somehow PvP here doesn't excite me in the slightest.

A year ago I was conviced I'd never raid either but now I enjoy raiding with my static and sometimes rolling through the PF and do rekills for funsies. I doubt I'll get to ultimate but that's not for the lack of interest but more because we'll likely spent several more weeks on e8s and some people will take a break from raids once we cleared this tier.

Ultimate.
I would like to give it a whirl but I have so much else to do on my plate in the game. There's...way too much to do lol.

Savage mode. Don't have the time, patience or motivation to deal with it, though I'm sure I could clear them if I tried. Ex-trials are enough for me.

PVP
Aside from that I'm willing to give any group content a try, with FC members and friends.

I don't ever bother with the jumping puzzle gate at the gold saucer but I did try it out a few times when it was relatively new.
