Hey I'm a let you finish, but FFXI had the best grind of all time!

[Tiggy]

Now folks, im not in any way shape or form trying to tell any of you what to play or if you enjoy or dont enjoy it, im just merely stating the OPINION that square enix is taking this game in a boring and dull direction and its only going to get worse if they keep this route.

Fixed that for you.

I think is funny how the OP and other complains about the grind of the fates, but forget to realize that is done only for one item of the game which is relics. In 1.0 there was a lot of complains that relics were too easy to get compare to what it was in XI, plus your Relic weapon should be something epic that should take effort and time to get. SE has please the crowd with a effort and time consuming quest using all of the mechanics the game have to offer for the Relic Weapon which will become the best weapon on the game.

If you don't want to do the effort that takes to upgrade your relic, there are plenty of other options that does not take time but a skill groups of players.(Coils, Primals, etc) I personally don't have the time to dedicate my self to the relic, if I did that is all I would be doing in the game. Go and enjoy the other mechanic of the game and just wait a year or so when the current relic quest will become easier if you want to be lazy.

The grinds in game really keep me from standing around in Mor Dhona... we need more fast paced content that gets me back to doing what I do best and that is standing around complaining that there is nothing to do.

On a bit more serious note, XI was all but a grind for the most part. To do the sky bosses, you had to grind the items to summon the bosses, then beat the bosses and depending on which pop you were waiting for, it might have been 3-4 hours standing around with friends killing some stuff. Also, standing with 300 of your closest friends in Dragon's Aery awaiting Fafnir or Nihdogg to pop was not exactly my cup of tea, but the rewards were grand! I enjoy raiding as much as the next guy, but I also enjoy content that takes awhile (even if it is a mindless grind) and gives me something to fill in the gaps during the week. I am getting my Rosenbogen here soon, but I really want my Novus too and eventually my High Allagan Weapon. I find that if I do the content that is in game and not throw a fit when something doesn't take 3 hours to complete because "I have a life" and how dare you not immediately hand me something because I got work unlike you people begins to grind on people's nerves too.

You are talking about Abyssea, right? Now that was the most fun grind I ever had.

This ! Just this !
If you want THAT reward, you have to play by THESE rules.
If you don't like it, aim for another weapon.

And by the way, if you think that relic is "like" FFXI, you clearly didn't grind for a relic in FFXI, cause that was waaaaaay more frustrating.

This game may not be bad, but it definitely isn't "good".

Why do people still use "always" for "that one time" and "definitely" for "in my opinion" ?
