Why do you keep playing FFXIV ?

[Rafaelhades]

Because I like the game and I want to keep playing.

Maybe times have changed and gone are the days of people's fascination with persistent worlds and MMOs. Maybe they really haven't and gamers are really just after that instant gratification from gaming and are just made more apparent when it became more "mainstream." Anything you do over and over will get boring. It doesn't matter if it's something you love. Luckily, MMOs have evolved to a past time and is no longer the "2nd life" it was before.

If you're burning out, go take a break. Play something else. If the next patch brings you back, great. If you find something else, awesome. But word of warning, you'll be burnt of that too soon enough and will be looking for the next fix.

Edit because of char limit: Cap tomes, PVP, Raid, alt jobs and alt char. Usually takes up most of my week. When I don't feel like doing those, Diablo 3 and LoL.
