What cause players to quit Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn

[Elven]

So you don't want your opinion criticized yet you post it on a MMO forum ?



That manner of speech is also one of the reasons no one takes things you say seriously.

Well no that ain't it, it seems any opinion not for FFXIV is instantly taken as negative and thus tries to get shouted down by fanboys.

Doesn't matter how long it takes this game is dying and most people are too far down the rabbit burrow to see it. People don't want to pay for 7/10 unhappiness. It will still go on maybe get better I hope it does but by then many would have left with no hope of coming back.

this is the opinion that is taken as negative, Elven, assuming that a general audience that pays for this game doesn't enjoy it and are "too far down the rabbit burrow to see it." That's silly

Edit: And really negaitve

I'm actually more interested in why this thread is still here and all the others were deleted.

Yeah, because saying The game is dying, F2P incoming. is totally the epitom of positiveness. I mean, here's another shining beacon of positiveness:

Who really cares unless you're genuinely butt hurt right? I have to wonder myself why all the fuss over that comment and I came to that conclusion, there's no other explanation.

On the contrary. I actually find it quite hilarious that as soon as someone calls you out, you just resort to petty insults instead of actually trying to support your point of view.

"why respond unless butthurt?" is that what you think? really?

Yes they kept at it almost like they wanted my opinion silenced but I don't have to really worry about it because there are plenty of other people explaining why they left and most of the reasons given are shared views anyway.

When I quit 5months ago, it was because of many different factors.

1. I didn't like the split between players.. In the situation I was in, I had an elite set of friends I played with and I had my FC I was a master of who were "behind" for the standard at that time. I slowed my game down to a stall and tried to get my FC to and beating T5, I wanted to clear T5 for the first time with my FC and I ended up waiting months to do it and falling way way behind the players I used to play with. It is hard to find people on the same skill level as you I guess I am saying.

2. The community was starting to grate on me, very bitchy, very mean to eachother and not helpful to the lower players.


3. Some of the games systems were starting to annoy me.. I am a crafter but with the AH showing all prices undercutting was getting ridiculous. The game was made casual so progression was so fast then all of a sudden brick wall when you reached the part where SE are trying to slow people down because theyre running out of content.

and 4. It started feeling like a job.. no game should feel like a job lol

I did however return to the game last week and I am enjoying myself again. When I left I was on the top of the pile (not counting coil because at that point I was still waiting for my FC to catch up, though I did eventually give in and beat T5) now I am so far buried under the pile I just don't care anymore and I am just doing the things I enjoy. I haven't done any of the new dungeons,haven't done the story or Ramuh, haven't done atma, novus, nexus, galaxy s2.. I am however enjoying hunts alot and that seems to take up most of my game time now
