Players interested in Solo Play.

....Solo focus in a MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER Online Role Playing Game.

Just...stop and think for a moment. I'm all for being able to do stuff on your own but really, in the end, the point of a game like this is to socialize, have fun with people and do stuff as a group. I'm sorry you feel like you have to have accomplishments to enjoy a game but maybe you should consider hard or extreme modes of solo games to achieve said desires.

Stop taking my multiplayer out of my MMORPG. Eesh.

There's a lot of mmos that don't require you to be in a full party to enter dungeons. As long as you're in a party (like party with a friend who isn't actually going to the dungeon with you, or an alt) you can go ahead enter and solo if you can. It's not that big a deal and it doesn't change anything really.

Krenian having more soloable instances wouldn't affect you and others like you who want party playing from doing just that. But it will provide extra content and challenges for those that want it and find that aspect of the game fun and interesting. Soloable content doesn't mean only solo play. In the case of NMs from FFXI I ised to solo Behemoth and Serket on my THF at when lvl cap was 75 because I enjoyed the challenge and testing my self. That didn't mean you couldn't kill them with a party it just provided an extra activity with rewards.

Solo play does not in anyway take away from the MMO aspect of a game. In fact it bolsters it in many cases. I made a bunch of friends camping against them against HNMS and NMs in FFXI. We used to chat whole farming and form parties together to hunt monsters when we had free time. If you want to blame a lack of community in FFXIV on something it would be on Duty Finder. Hell a lot of the toxic players are because of DF as well. If they took out DF and things went back to how it was in XI a few things would happen.

1. FFXIV would lose a lot of it's casual friendliness.
2. All these toxic self entitled people with the shitty attitudes would shape up or never be invited to a party for anything.
3. Community and reputation would be everything! Hence #2 if you acted like a whiney brat and sucked at your job your reputation would spread and no one that was part of any high end FC or group would have anything to do with you and probably whatever FC you were part of.
4. There would be a lot more server and FC pride. People would know about you, your group, and your accomplishments much like the first Twintani kill by Blue Gartr. Any old school FFXI player probably still remembers the Apathy LS and of course Avesta the RDM that can and pretty much dis solo everything that guy was a legend haha.

This got rather long but yeah soloable content does not take away fr the MMO aspect pf a game it simple allows more options and activities for those that are looking for it. Damn I miss my THF...

PS. Sorry for the grammar spelling errors typing on my phone sucks.

I'd be all for a few solo instances. As long as they did it intelligently and not completely ruin the need for party required dungeons.
This is an MMO after all so parties should be the main focus but implementing a little solo play would be most welcomed I think.

Lets face it, you follow the story and its being made out to be following YOUR character, lets expand on that a little.

I'd love to see better solo content, it was one of the things I loved most about FF11. Back in the 75 days I solo'd stuff on my BLM but when I revisited at the 99 cap I had loads of fun on BST. Sobek always got my attention, as did killing UFO's on THF. Good times.

Some training dungeons so people can learn how to do their job might be nice.

A dungeon to level up the chocobo (player+chocobo) would be nice.
Rare drops: unique bardings, a scroll to reset the skills, Chocobo eggs to breed a chocobo with a random color
Common drops: Gysal Greens, Chocobo minions and Chocobo eggs for yellow Chocobos

Good suggestions. Currently leveling Chocobo is tiresome and i want those little chickens to be something more than what they are or what they could do.

Go play a single-player game then.

FFXI is over & done with.

Really? I guess the game I just logged out from wasn't FFXI, I guess it was some other game that stole the FFXI name and all it's content. Thanks for the heads up...

Thanks Hitler, but last time I checked, most of this game is SOLO. Get A Clue! MMORPGs are getting more and more solo, your mentality is ancient and slowly (well kinda quickly) disappearing, try to keep us with the rest of us. Not all of us are so desperate for social interaction like you. You want to be social, go to facebook or twitter. You want to play a FF game online with others, play FFXI or FFXIV. Want to play a FF game online solo, play FFXI or FFXIV. That's how it is now, if you don't like it, go play some other crap that is against solo play and forces you to socialize. We'll be here with the freedom to play however we want.
