Content you don't play?

[StrejdaTom]

There is no such content, I play everything. :-O

[desufin]

Kinda been doing everything but right now I avoid fishing. I got a 100% Fish Guide and the addition of the Lucis Rod and the ease of getting it compared to Ironworks still has me mad.
Also been avoiding hunts for the most part ever since the new logs were added. They aren't nearly as bad now thanks to carbontwine being in the weekly quest so I occasionally go if FC members make a group.
Had in mind to get a few lucis tools for crafters but there's little to no point yet so I only got one for BTN and will probably leave it at that for now. Doesn't help there's occasionally influx of new 4* crafters that crash market prices just because they are new and think they are making good profit even when undercutting by 40k+ on things that were a steady 100k for crafted materials or undercut by 300k+ on things that were ~1mil (weapons).

Please move to Gilgamesh and let me throw things at you. This list made me sad.

My FC is a ragtag bunch of misfits, but they've somehow managed carries up through T9, including all EX primals (most of which are just good, clean fun, promise). And the rest are worth getting into, if all you've been lacking is an overgeared friend with too many mats.

Thank you....... But transferring is just not something I can make up my mind about... too many issues, and from past experiences I'd just end up being a "drop-out" again, anyway. :/

So... what do you actually do when you play? O.o

But I'm genuinely curious as to why a lot of you in this thread that named over 50% of the content that is available in game that you don't do, even play this game at all? It feels like some people just use this as a $9.99-14.99 glorified chat room, with a pretty movable avatar. ....

Again, I'm really just curious as to why people still play if they don't have any enjoyment out of anything at all. Sorry if I bugged you all >.< Just ignore my weird brain if you want.

Like I mentioned on my post, even excluding all these things, for me there is still sooooo much to do.

And maybe it is a glorified chat room. Nothing wrong with just signing in and talking to friends from all over the world. Good way to relax. ^^

It could be too that you're conflating messages. While a number of us have mentioned similar disinterests, there are many who do enjoy doing these.

Though, lol, I'm beginning to wonder how many of us here spend a goodly chunk of time on glamour. xD

pvp: Never liked it, in any game
2nd coil and anything beyond: Still too difficult
chocobo racing: I don't know what it is I'm doing wrong, but I always place far back in 8th whenever I do these and the controls seem extremely unresponsive, so it's not very fun

I can't think of anything else, really.

I'll play anything as long as I can play it with friends (both old and new) ..

Relic weapon. I'm happy with nothing and the tomes one is enough to me.

Things I haven't done YET:
-PvP - still have classes/jobs to level
-sightseeing - I've picket up the quest, just haven't done a single sight.
-FCOB - I've done T1-T6 and attempted T9. Just don't have the desire
-Primals - I've done them all at least once, and I think I've finished the EX versions of most. My system seems to be slightly on the slow end to complete them.
-Low Level Routette (once I've got a class to 50) - there really isn't any benefit for me.
-Guildheists - Just fell out of doing them.
-Triple Triad - Bought the hype to much before ever trying it and it didn't live up to the hype, so that really was my own fault.
-Hunts - Just never interested me, no matter what rewards they added.

Things I do: (Daily)
-Beastman dailys. - I'm max rep with all the tribes. I used the Ixati(sp) to level my crafters and have all crafters to 50 now.
-Gold Saucer Cractpot - It's the way I earn MGP.
-Chat with friends on TS. Honestly I think this is why I'm still playing the game.
-Retainer ventures - I've got my DOM to 50 shortly after ventures came out. I'm now leveling the other 3 DOL ones.
-Crystal Towers (Tues) - I run them with my FC.
-Crystal Towers (Wed) - Typically WOD if I didn't do it with the FC on Tuesday.

Things I do: (Weekly)
-Companion log - Kill 100 mobs of equal level.
-Expert Dungeon Roulette - Yes I'm after the tombstones.
-Gathering log - It's easy money and I usually sell what I gather for profit anyway.
-Work on leveling my non-50 classes/jobs - Right now I'm working on ROG, LNC, and PUG. I'll get BRD, PAL, and MRD up soon.

I still find I have a lot of things to do in this game.

I can't speak for others, but for me, it's mainly about the story quests and new content (raids, trials, dungeons, etc and that aren't hardcore like upper level turn Coils) and gearing (demon gear, twines, etc at this point). After that it's a lot of repeating all of those above for the hell/fun of it or for practice - since people are the unpredictable, differing factor in every run - or helping FC level their lower jobs (or my own lower level jobs/characters). Ironic, considering I hate repeating myself o_Oa *and yet, queues Titan HM, Garuda EX, WoD and Shiva on repeat for several hours, when the only one on in the FC, for the fun of it...* I'll do leves on lower jobs to fill in the gaps between dungeon level reqs to get to the next *grinds passed Totorak >.<*, but...

For others, it might be more of an RPing outlet - the story + side quests and then using the game as a platform to roleplay on in a way that text-based or D&D-based RPing doesn't do. A non-static (as you have other player pop and factors/weather you don't directly control), more visual and environmental stage to play and develop on-going 'stories' on. Dunno if any of this helps give any kind of insight. x.x
