The decline begins... Square Enix, heed my call.

This is not an "end of the world" thread, this is mainly suggestions that, in my honest opinion, will help the game in many ways.

Legacy players don't have this problem, but new players joining are having a terrible time leveling alts, they are bored as hell doing fate after fate after fate while all these beautifully designed dungeons are only run once... and once only.

I'm trying to help by keeping variety a core aspect of the game, people leave because they are sick of logging on and doing the same thing over and over.

Then you should post those suggestions without the hyperbole.

New content is coming, and existing things will be adjusted, it goes without saying on major patches.

I had no intentions of making it a "doomsday" title, maybe it came off too strong... oops?

I hope you're right.

Dont take alhanelem to heart. He is coming off too strong not you.
You are not far off. Already I am quite bored. I spend more time on the forums reading people opinions than I do playing the game. I am that bored and frustrated with it. The server stability is terrible and makes for a frustrating experience sometimes. I too have noticed declines in populations. Balmung used to have a near constant queue after the server expansions now not nearly as much. I only feel obligated to play since I was a derp and paid 6 months up front. Had they given me a reason to run the other dungeons I might not have gotten bored so quickly. Many people feel the same I am sure of that much.
Leveling alts is not a good alternative for me I have all the ones I care about at 50 anyway. Fate grinding is physically painful even if I wanted to level them, and dungeon queues for the other dungeons are either non existent or very very long.
