After playing for a month...

It is a new game so I won't complain about lack of endgame. Lots of new games don't start with tons of content but I burned through most of it already. Already leveled all combat jobs and crafts to 50, just have gathering left. Coil is about 1 hour to clear turn 1-4, with 5 being down cause of bugs. Hopefully 2.1 gives more to do.

I've been playing mmo's since 1999. Most of the games i've played do not require you to have group help until the end game. When i get to end game i will look to play with others. But i am stuck at a low level for HOURS at a time. I am still on my trial period subscription, just waiting and waiting for the duty finder. All in all i've spent just as much time playing as i have waiting. This will not attract new players to the game, it actually discourages players especially so much waiting at low levels.

Today i have the day off work, I've sat waiting for a Duty finder for over 500 mins. Then i actually get a que to have the healer bug out. So more waiting.

You honestly believe that I wish to make this game look like it is failing? Did I once say that this game is a failure because of it's end-game? Did I once say that I'm not ever going to play again because I hate the end-game? No. I was merely querying whether others felt the same way as i did in a non hostile way. I still enjoy the game, yet not as much as I used to

I don't know how people can say, "Level up all the other DoW classes" because once you clear out the quests, they become the most boring thing I've ever done in an MMO. My two highest DoW classes are mnk (lvl 42) and war (lvl 43) and the quests before those levels have all but dried up. The problem is unless you are fate grinding (which I can't stand) your other options are dungeon grind (I wouldn't mind this at all, but the rate of xp is dreadfully slow in them), grind monsters (extremely slow), or use levemates to level (need them for crafting jobs and they give very little xp for battle jobs).

Actually this is one of the first MMOs since WoW that I've played that I still want to play and am enjoying. The crafting is actually crafting for once, the primals and dungeons are enjoyable (even after running several times over), housing is coming soon (even though limited). Sorry, there's just too much going on in this for me to be bored. That's obviously my opinion, but I feel this MMO has much more to offer than most.

As far as gear for a second class - I already have a full Bard's set from WP (I know it's not all Darklight but it will still make things easier, especially the weapon!), make sure you greed that stuff on your main if nobody wants it...set yourself up for the future!!

I'm a very new player, so haven't reached the issue of endgame boredom, but dang its hard to get through the queue as a low level trying to do dungeons. I've given up after hours trying just to get the early ones done. At this point, not sure I'm willing to subscribe if just getting the early story quests done is this painful.

Bad timing, for some reason a lot of tanks won't rerun low level dungeons. It was always a long queue as a DPS, but it can be worse now. That said, shout around for a tank for a specific dungeon in the market in the Ul'dah or the like. Also if you need heals on anything let me know. I can manage anything up through Toto-Rak even without a tank, so long as the DPS can keep up. I am currently leveling another character on another world, but I can log in and give you a hand.

Other than that I recommend leveling up a tank to get through the story dungeons.

After playing for a month I subscribed for the full 6 months. I like the game.

This game is not new. It is not close to being new. It is a 3 year old game with a lot of the quests from 1.0. (The 2.0 version shows it is not new. New begins at 1.0). It is a re-launch one that needed to deliver to make up for the first launch. That eats away at the excuse of give it X months to be fun. In a re-launch you need it to be fun from the start.

What quest in ARR was already in 1.0?
Every quest in ARR is new.

It's sad if you're able to get to level 50 in a few days, let alone, two weeks.
