Here is what people are conveniently forgetting, since they just want to berate the OP:

When SE asked for feedback from us since 1.0 was a failure, and when they continually ask for more feedback, and then go on to tell us that our feedback was received and was used to make certain decisions, it fostered the thinking among the playerbase that our continued feedback is important and will be looked at.

Now, when some of you give 'feedback' about loot drops, or lockouts, or nerfing old content... How is that ANY different than what this OP was doing?

I agree with the OP, and with a lot of the other threads recently that don't like the direction the game is taking. Too much vertical progression, not enough variety, not enough story, doesn't feel like Final Fantasy.

I too am thinking about quitting when my sub runs out. Until then, I'm going to continue playing. My husband plays, and I have some friends in our ls, but I'm getting the feeling that the game is NOT for me, and never will be.

We come here to give our feedback because we've been conditioned to believe that our feedback is desired and will be looked at. We come here to give our feedback because the team that gave us 1.23 is the team working on 2.0 and we know that they can do better than what we're currently getting. We come here to give our feedback in hopes of finding people of like mind, or even different mind, but that are capable of having a grown up discussion instead of just saying 'cool story bro.'

You tell the OP he's wrong for posting here for x and y reason, but if that's the case, why are you even posting in his thread? Let's throw some of your own advice back at you: "If the thread isn't for you, just leave and find one that is."

Sheesh, I've been saving this up for days. I kept starting a post, but stopping because it's not worth it, and it still isn't worth it, but I can't keep my mouth shut anymore.
