Anyone Else Super Bored Already?

[Shiyo]

Not sure if I'm bored of the game, but I play for like 4 hours per week now. Fantastic game, just nothing to actually do in it. Log on tuesday, do turn 1-4, cap my myths in garuda(2-3 hours to do this) then play my 3ds/pokemon for the rest of the week. I've been playing my 3ds/pokemon for the past 3 weeks now, much more enjoyable than this game and a ton more fun, end game in pokemon is a lot more fun than this game, with lots more to do, somehow. Next week my coil group attempts turn5 so maybe I'll play for 6 more hours that week(1 night for turn 1 - > 4, 2 nights of 3x2 on turn 5), but that still isn't much to do.


Game is seriously lacking reasons to get me to log on and want to play. Everything is too fast/easy to get, content patches are taking waaay too long, too much repetitive content at 50, too much time spent on the 1-49 leveling process that's only done ONCE, maybe twice per person, then completely ignored at the level cap. They should've spent all that time on level50 content instead of content that people do 1-2 times, and the content people have to spam only being like 3 dungeons and a single raid. Not a very smart design decision, especially for a game that the producer, Yoshi-P, literally stated "starts at the level cap".

Oh? Then why is the level cap the place with the least amount of content?

I wish I was bored. That would mean I've spent way too long on the game. Alas, work and social obligations limit me to spending only 3-6hrs every weekday, and varied (but usually longer) hours on weekends. In short, no, I'm not bored of the overall game.

Today I wanted to gain a few more levels in Alchemy. I needed a few more levels in botany and miner to get some mats, so I started by doing that. Then I came to a recipe that needed cotton thread. So I switched to my weaver and played catch up with that. However, I realized I didn't have enough leather for my 6-10 recipes, and needed Hard Leather for one of them. So I switched over to Leatherworker which was plenty high enough to make the mats I needed. Went back to weaver to make my way to cotton thread, and finally back to Alchemist to gain the levels I initially wanted to gain.

Nope, sorry. Not bored.

Me too. I didn't rush to 50 DoW/M, in fact I have 3 lvl 50's from 1.0 that I haven't even done the Class Quests for. Instead I leveled Arcanist to 30 doing the Main Story Quests on it, got SMN & SCH, then decided I need some nice HQ Melded gear and have been working on all my Crafts since.

I actually enjoy the Crafting/Gathering more than the Battle Classes but I'll get back into it eventually and I still have plenty of Story to go too. And based on alot of the complaining I'm really in no hurry to get to "End Game".

I'm not bored at all.

I came into the game all 50 DoW/H/L from 1.0 and I'm still here, playing nightly as life permits. I love this game -- it's fantastic. Both my accounts (yeah...) paid the 180 days sub.

I *enjoy* the game, so I play it. Not to max everything out. Not to gear it up. Not to clear all the content. Though all of those things are eventual realities. That's really all there is to it. If you enjoy the game, you log in and do *something*, because it's fun!

If your sole reason to play is to level up, BiS, and clear all the content once (totally valid playstyle, btw) I can *totally* see how you would be bored. Maybe you should unsub -- come back for 2.1, 2.2, etc. Or perhaps this isn't the game for you?

I'm pretty sure you just listed what you would do in a MMO which is strictly based on yourself. Also its hard to get "lost" in this game when it offers little to get lost in and if you mean get lost in the zones,well if you get lost in those tiny little zones I don't know what to say.

No, he is right. If you play a MMORPG and do only of aspect of the game, then you can't complain that at some point you will run out of that THAT aspect to do. It's like when you buy M&M only for the yellow ones,, then send a complaint to the factory because you're disappoint for have ran out of green M&M.

You rush for things by your own choice. You get burned out for doing the same thing day after day by your own choice.

Playing the game how it was intended by the producer, Yoshi-P, isn't rushing.

[Toranja]

I'm not. I only play some three days per week.

1 aspect of the game= 1 Job level to 50/get gear for job/Coil

"Game starts at 50" wasn't meant to be taken literally... Personally. (Do you like how the producer intended the game to be?) From all your posts it doesn't even sound like it. That's fine, question is, why are you still subbed if you hate it? Or do you? quite frankly I'm confused atm.

Exactly what #5 said
