Rage Quit

[Jynx]

I'm sure we will see our fair share of Rage-quitters once the update hits us, and plenty more before that when the letter from the producer comes out.

It will also be hillarious reading them all.

Can you really quit, if it's free?

Some people just really hated it. All of the people I started playing XIV with in beta and release just cancelled their accounts because of how sickened they were by the game.

It will also be hillarious reading them all.

So you find the issue of decreasing populations hilarious?
Whether the said "rage-quit" posts that may come might be for silly reasons or poorly put together as a whole, XIV is still losing players. That's not something to laugh about unless you really want this game to be scrapped.

1. Ragequiters on the forums mostly don't play the game anyways.

2. If the game fails it fails, getting teary eyed that people don't find the game up to snuff doesn't bother me.

3. Why should I care about the population dropping right now? If the game fails to pick up users on re-launch is the issue at hand. Sure a few "Hardcore" players might convince the 2 friends they actually have to not pick the game up but it's not as dramatic an effect people are making it out to be.
Surely Square should be worried about retaining them, but I sure as hell don't care. The delicious tears will flow one way or another.

4. Most Ragequiters are just trolls who probably log in the next day despite "Deleting there account and never coming back"

In any forum the dissenters are always the vocal majority, even if the game was amazing I can guarantee we would still see a large volume of troll posts either way. Happy people play, angry people cry about it on forums. Do I want the game to be scrapped? Nope. Can I do anything about the dev teams actions? Aside from what I allready currently do as a normally decent forum goer...nope. Can I laugh at some of the terrible reasons people "Quit" I sure as hell can.

People have missed the point of this dev letter. 1.18 isn't just auto attack, read the previous letter for things that will also make it in with this patch. This letter was just to give us on an update on this specific feature.

It is kind of underwhelming, but in the same respect, im sure they don't want to keep repeating the same stuff in each letter.

People who think of quiting save yourselves the words and just quit a game you dont like playing its that simple, nobody wants to hear about it and nobody cares.
People who still plan on playing the game will continue to play it even if the patch isnt good enough.

Oh but the "flounce about and drama quit in a flurry of feathers" is so much more entertaining to read.

Like people who give up drugs, they always have a good old rant at the drug of choice before storming away. They tend to still have a stash though, you know, just in case

Bro I rage quit every day then I log back in the next day for another 10000 straight hours and then rinse and repeat.

I would probably eat 5 years worth of sh*t for this game before I give up on it, which is sad. I dont play xiv already everyday though, I take breaks from time to time when I have a semester to partake in. When I'm 26 I better be doing some epic content on the few weekends I'll be able to play lol.
