Will 21 Fix Boredom?

[Shiyo]

Sure the cap is boring Agreed! but there is reason for it. You max out everything you end up have zero stuff do.

I'm paying $13-15/month, what gives you, or SE the right to say how often and how much I can play? How does it negatively impact you, or anyone in the world, if I play too much and burn myself out?

I should be able to play as much as I want, no caps, no restrictions, this is a PAY TO PLAY MMO, not a f2p one, I expect caps and restrictions in a f2p mmo, not a monthly sub one.

You either give me the entire game, no restrictions, but make me pay monthly, or you give me the game for free and have restrictions on how often I can play and how much I can play. Pick one, not some hybrid of both picking the worst parts of both(monthly sub AND restricting how often and much I can play) and blending it together into one single game.

But this is how this game is. Like playing the game as is? Then continue to play. Don't like the game as it has been made? Don't play and please dont come on the forums spaming drivel.

I already have zero stuff to do, of the 10$ I spend on this game, I actively play it for 9cents each month.

I thought you were quitting?

When some people say they are quitting, they really aren't. Just some people feel the need to threaten SE to change something instead of using their wallets to prove their point.

To the OP: FFXI Launch was capped at 50, and didn't have much in terms of endgame content. The time frame you played at was about 2 years into launch ( 75 cap). FFXIV ARR just came out, give it some time to grow into a great MMO. Within 2 years, I'm sure FFXIV ARR will be a great game.

Have you never raided or otherwise PvE'ed seriously in an MMO prior to this? Weekly lockouts and currency caps are par for the course.

Correct... however, most are not as quick or easy to beat as ffxiv. So basically super casuals are left entertained, and happy they can clear content. And more serious players are left utterly bored with the lack of challenging content.

[Musashidon]

you have the full game you've done coil you're just complaining you can get full af2 gear in a day get over it. just like every other thread says there isn't enough to do then complains how they can't have full best gear in a day. please stop acting like you actually want to better then game when all you want is to show off full gear before other players.

i forgot turn 5 was easy so how many times you beat it now? once a week right?

[Alhanelem]

Will it fix boredom? Depends on why you're bored. If your'e simply lacking for content, I'd say yes. And after you've conquered all the PvE in 2.1, there's plenty of PvP action to keep things going til the next

Remember that FFXI had been out for a long time before we got it in the US- At the japanese launch, FFXI had even less content than FFXIV does now.

Sure bro ;but coil 5 is still bugged without those bugs do u really think that good players wont already cleared it with less than one week after they cleared turn 4 ; and coil lock out is the worst thing I very ever saw in sub mmo ; does the fact that players with a lot time to spend earning full af2 in less than one month will disturb u and change ur life ? NO ;

Because its due to their Hardworking that casual players have all free guide without moving a finger and manage to clear HL content , right ?

In my point of view I d rather play with highly experienced player to help us when we had bad times than full clueless casual player and take decade to clear new dungeons.... also even if players are fully geared they can also spend their time to find new way to clear any dungeons /fully helping all of their FC mates /perfect their gameplay and farming all dugeons for nothing but fun and for spending their free time like they WANT , and make the game better for everyone ....

on all games i ve played , i was always in the top tiers players , and even if we cleared everything in less than one month , we had never experienced boredom just after it, but just finding more ways to have fun with our pals and had a lot of fun for several MONTH And YEARS ... because when we play a game and invest a lot of time on it, it's because we LOVE it and want it to be BETTER for EVERYONE .

the principal cause of BOREDOM , is ROUTINE and LIMITATIONS .....

because limitation just keep u away from exciting stuff and hard dungeons .... seriously , good fc clear coil 1> 4 in less than one our , don't tell them to pay 15 bucks per month just for 40 min of game content, and some ppl already have full hq 70 gears, full handicraft job at 50 and more than one class 50 ..... and they all are bored because of these limitations .if they want to make 100 BcOB 1 =>4 , per week , it's their life no ? don't be self centered and think for urself ...


and also i just noticed than an fc has already cleard turn 5 even with these bugs: http://bluegarter.guildwork.com/ so ....
