the prologue in most rpg has more content then ffxiv does all put together.it aint free, it cost money, up to this point they havent released enough content for a stand alone RPG, story, world and skill wise.
think about it, if you gained levels as fast as on offline rpg, how would the content they have allowed us to play measure up to a regular rpg?
If with 1.18 they can put in the foundations for what they are going to build upon and actually tell us and lay out the plan by saying ok this is what the Grand Companies will be, this is what Player Companies will be, this is how the mount system will work, this is the job system and so on. Even if there is little content in 1.18 then I will be satisfied I think.
However if 1.18 comes and all we get is auto attack and no info then I will have lost all hope.
Can you imagine an offline RPG with the story we have so far?
*Witness a short story in your nation of choice, afterwards you wonder "what happens next?" but never see the ending*
*Get shoved off to something completely off topic*
*Do some random missions that take maybe 1 hr 30 min total, most of which are simply "talk to x-npc, walk around some)*
*Witness an amazing cut scene out of nowhere that leaves off with you being told that you aren't strong enough for whats to come, you need to improve*
*The End*
Well, you can always just play solo and get the same experience.Can you imagine an offline RPG with the story we have so far?

Exactly what I'm thinking. You want all r50 jobs when new shit is released?
SE isn't gonna please everyone with the 1.18 update, so some of you minus well take a "Long" break.
Get yourself a nice job and work it and do something effective as a time sink, get yourself a nice big TV for when FF14 does get worked over.

Even though it was not free. This is not the first time many of us have made the bad decision to purchase a crappy game. Whenever we have made that bad decision I do not recall myself or anyone else running back to the developer to get their money back. SE did not force any of us to buy anything. False promises of a game, sure. We were all expecting a game facing 180 degrees of what it is now maybe. So, the reason that the game cost me money and therefore the company must do something about it is not valid. Unless, the game was unplayable at all. But we are all able to play the game, its just not fun. This is my opinion of course.
I think it's *vital* that even if they don't give us a lot in 1.18, that what we do get is of top notch quality. That means no cutting corners. I hope they understand how important this is.
Yeah! The online aspect has added so much to the story! I slowly got to 50 doing the same exact leves with the same exact monsters with friends. I got some gear with stats that mean almost nothing from friends. I stood in town wondering why I am still even logged in at this point with friends.
Yay for friends online!
LOL!!! So I just came up with a joke! "What did project rapture and the biblical rapture have in common?" "They both ended up dissaponting a lot of people..." LAMEEE! But I laughed.
My friend responded "they're both endorsed by lunatics!?" lol!

Sounds like you're burnt out Bloodlotus, happened to me about a month ago, I am waiting for 1.18 before I go back and if its not good enough I'll probably quit for good or at least until PS3 launch.
I think most of us have either got to the point or are getting to the point of wanting to quit so your not on your own.
