Does SE not realise their game has no content?

[Arriverderci]

I still really hate you Star. :<

[Welsper59]

Leveling isn't content - Biggest misconception. The Content you get while leveling you do with your first main, those dungeons are one time use in the grand scheme of "how much content" exists. Class Quests are a means to an end to get abilities (otherwise most will forget they exist.)

Content is literally EVERYTHING in the game. The environment, the mobs, the mob mechanics, the quests, the classes, the spells/abilities, the story, etc. I really don't understand why that's not a concept that people understand. Oh wait, you're talking about what you selectively call "content", not what it literally is. Okay.

People need to use their words to be a little more accurate about what they're trying to say. This is why arguments occur. The person you quoted is literally right in what is being said, it's just you (and some others) are applying a subjective (and selective) definition to it. If you want to talk about a lack of raid content, say "raid content". Easy!

Seriously, I don't really understand how an MMO can release with less content then most single player RPGs. Even if the game was released with the content being brought in 2.1, there's still such a ridiculous lack of time filling activities. Any player with more then 5 hours a week to play this game has pretty much already completed everything it has to offer and they arn't even releasing any harder end game content in the next patch.

So you have completed all 9 of the unique job story quests that continue on from Lv.30-50? You know why Jahantel doesn't fight anymore? Or why you are allowed to be a paladin or who betrayed their order? Or any of the other CONTENT from every unique job story line I don't even know about because I haven't completed them? I am amazed that you have completed all of that. Not to mention every story line for the crafting classes. My mind is boggled.

Sooooo... no content you say? After a quick character search of your character this is brought to my attetion:


You are nowhere NEAR done with this game. You leveled 1 Job class to 50. Didn't you hear? Each class has it's own back story, which is a storyline all on its own! Perhaps if the above picture showed you at all 50's then yes, i'd say you are done, go take a break, go read a book, and wait until 2.1 and 2.2 but you are far from done! Sure you have a WHM all decked out. That's one character. That's one job storyline you have completed. No content...jeez kids these days.

... I was going to comment but you said everything I was going to say so... Thank you for being smart.

noticed many threads pretty much stating things they don't like or even hate with a passion about this game.. some of them are mature others just seem a bit close to raging and even threaten to quit the game /or already had if those things don't change.

to be honest I agree with some, but i wouldn't let them get to me that much or stop me from trying to enjoy this game in every little way possible..(specially there aren't many good games of this genera these days)and thats for many reasons will try to list a few of them:


1- No game is perfect.. reason? ppl have different tastes & preferences.. what you think is great addition to the game trust me someone else will think its the worst idea ever.. we are just impossible to be fully pleased not just in games but almost in everything else ^^

2- Its still new so its too soon to love or hate anything period cuz things will eventually changed A LOT. Judging the game at this stage & saying its bad is like reading the first pages of an unfinished book and going ITS HORRIBLE! wont read the rest! or going its the best book ever! (not best example but you get the point).

3- It's not perfect but its not bad either! im sure you've tried other games that you couldnt even go past level 10 cuz it was THAT boring... im not gonna mention names but i played some of those & trust me couldnt even reach level 20... so seeing a game like FFXIV which has A LOT of potential of becoming a great game is like a breeze of fresh air to me

Sorry for the wall of words >_< but couldnt help it cuz it makes me sad to see people judging this game so early which hasnt been out for long... so felt like getting this out of my mind. So i wish that they will be a little patient (specially the tanks dont go we wuv u! @_@) and if u find something you dont like just think not just now but in the future of the potential of this game and what might be added im sure you will think it will be worth it seeing it all the way through ^^

So hope this will make at least 1 person think again and try to enjoy what we have at the moment and wait for the great changes in the future ^^


ok me stop typing now

You know it's sad when you're saying the game has so much content, but you're sitting here looking up someones lodestone profile just to try and deface their argument. Someone has a different opinion than you, shocker. But there's no reason to take it far enough where it's bordering on a personal insult.

I have 2 battle 50's, 1 50 DoL, and random low level DoHs. I personally see no reason at all to level anything else. Do I think this game has little content? Yes. Are you really trying to force the idea of 5 minute job/class quests down peoples throats as content? I'm sorry, did they add new zones/dungeons specific for those non-50 classes that I wasn't aware of?

Forum posters coming up with "you have not leveled every class to 50" are making assumption that "the achiever" playstyle is the only playstyle in games.

no, they aren't throttling you with class/job quest, they are absolutely voluntary. that is you feeling obligated to do them. (in fact i have seen players with a level 50 class and haven't progressed quest wise since the unlock quest)

and have you even considered bringing any of those low-leveled DOW/DOM into dungeons? you don't have to fate grind everything to 50 because it is the "quickest" way.

so much obligation to fast-fast track crap. at least leveling lower classes the non-fate way is a good change of pace from the mindless tome grind.
