This is why you're not justified in being so angry.

But it is the best game ever made.

Must be sarcasm; must be. Without a qualifying statement such as, "because it was the most profitable," or, "because of the low overhead and high return on investment," or something like that. If you as a "software developer yourself" really think WoW was the best game ever made based on merit... I wouldn't know how hard to laugh.

Oh I forgot, the forums are just a place for fanboys to circlejerk each other while the game fades away into mediocrity and the company loses profit. Right. Makes sense.

Meh, as a paying customer I'm allowed to complain all i want.

No sarcasm, I mean it. I am still playing WoW after almost ten years, unsubscribing three times and posting pages of really scathing critique on their forum. It's no more the game it used to be, but still going.

And FF14 may well become the fabled WoW 2.0, if they manage to fix some absurd mistakes and learn to listen less to the 5% elitists and more to the 95% - AND MOST OF ALL, TO PLAIN COMMON SENSE.

What if I got a bag of Doritos and some of the chips are moldy, and I say "I don't like those moldy Doritos!!!" But I like the other, non-moldy ones. Should I still stop eating Doritos?...........snip........... Boom, mind-blowing stuff.

No, just don't eat those. Take them back for a refund. Based on your logic, you ate them anyway..... mind blowing huh?

This whole post is,

while (complain < infinity) {
do "Complain about Complain that is about Complain about Complaining, etc ,etc, ...."
}

For the OP:
If you still around this toxic post, I do not see anything wrong with your first post or subsequent ones. You have made a personal comment that people took as another means to vent their ... whatever.

Sadly reasonable arguments are not what people want to hear or make. Personally I would love to see other people slam,misconscrew and insult their works, their actions or their wording in such rude manners that some have shown/done here.

Maybe that would help them understand the old proverb of "Do unto others as you would have them do to you" is extremely applicable in life and affects how people treat you. No only that, some of the venom posted here, makes me think these people are really bitter and angry at the world and everything in general. As much as I dislike their attitudes shown here, I sort of pity that their life is at a stage that such a small matter has become such a big deal for them. That they will lower themselves to such a low denominator that they have done and for what.... to win, to slam others, to be right at such a matter, ...

No, and Square did not pee in your game either. If you feel that somehow they did, I'd stop paying and call customer support.

Just my 2 sense

The phrasing is "two cents" not two sense. Please spread the word to everyone who uses idioms incorrectly, uses the wrong words (cents and sense are two different things), or uses them without knowing what they actually mean.

If you spend even 10 hours a week on this game that's roughly 160 hours. That's 62.5 cents per hour of entertainment.

what if i spend one hour a week on this game each week? (my FC and I have been this way for the past 3 months)

that's all it takes to clear turns 1 - 5

i could do extremes, or ultima, or moogle, or CT.. but i play to progress my/my guilds characters

...and there's nothing but sidegrades/downgrades for all of us from any of that content.. most of us have one upgrade to look forward to: twintania weapons (4 axes, 1 sword, 1 bow, 1 spear, 1 baghnakh so far)

so we log in, run through coil, and log out for the week until the next reset... there's a colossal dearth of content in this game and I'd love to have a reason to log on more than i do.. there just isn't one.

so disregarding the price of the game itself and sub fee only, we're looking at $14.99 for 4 hours of entertainment a week

...that's about the same price/length as going to see a movie

i'd get more bang for my buck out of buying any run-of-the-mill game for $60 and spending more than 5 hours on it.. i did that in a day on skyrim when it came out


p.s. i do realize i'm a tiny tiny subset of their subscriber base, an extreme minority and all that.. but the people i've gamed with for the past 10 years are powergamers.. and i'm fully aware we're not the target audience

still.. claiming that noone is justified to be angry over a lack of content isn't accurate.
