Final Fantasy 14 is starting to lose appeal because...

[Nektulos-Tuor]

Oddly enough it works both ways. Funny how beliefs on minuscule glamour based aspects of a video game can have different approaches, eh? Just because he doesn't listen, doesn't make it untrue.

It doesn't seem like your listening to him. I mean presenting to you two choices.

- More Content.

- Less Content.

The game though, really doesn't support much of it. Less they drop the PS3 completely.

Don't get me wrong, I love this game, but it's losing it's appeal and that's not a false statement. Every patch/update is the same thing: new tomestones to cap, new CT, new something instanced.

How about add a 100 floor open dungeon? (Sword Art Online style)

Yes, an open dungeon that's 100 floors and you can bump into anybody on the server while trying to get to the top.

This game is suppose to be an MMO, but instead falls into the trap of turning everything into instances so you feel like you're not even part of the fantasy world.

Yes please. And make the players die in real life too, might make everyone do df more often due to less 'low skilled players'. If you guys suggest something, how about something that is actually worth the dev's time.

I think this is why people don't like suggesting stuff because you come here and say it's worthless.
Don't see you tossing anything into the pot, friend.

I'm sorry but this post is stupid. Just saying.
So you're telling me that those of us who are bored of the same 2.0 routine under a pain coat has no life and has rushed?
Yeah okay, let's see. It took me a little over 2 weeks to get to 60 on AST and I paced my time.
You get to end-game then what?
2 dungeons, boring raid, a boring raid. [Coil was better IMO.]
I feel like some of you people seriously go on a complete 100% snail's pace just so you can tell people who are tired
of the same silly routine they rushed.

"Level more jobs"
Yay, let's level stuff we don't want to. That doesn't help. It really doesn't help when
you're banging your ahead against a wall as a DPS or so saving Moogles for 50 million hours in Churning Mists.
It's not fun. Leveling other jobs are much more boring than it was in 2.0. I can't take it anymore.

Yes, that's one of those judgamental arguments I see from time to time. This has nothing to do with rushing at all. I didn't rush to end game. I leveled several jobs to 60 at a slow pace and here we are. Can't do primals for the stated reasons earlier, done housing. Slowly leveling crafting and gathering (again, not rushing! though honestly, not much of a fan of gathering, but it makes some quick gil). I do my cactpot. Alex is locked out weekly, eso locked weekly, Savage oh don't get me started there. Just because there are "things to do" doesn't mean they are as engaging and fun as going into battles (though I'd argue Alex is any fun.. same for dungeons. I was expecting something more epic when it came to Alexander.). I'm one of those who doesn't cap Eso on the first day, too. So, what rush again?

And I think he's being difficult and unrealistic. Like a lot of players (Myself included), we're content locusts. We eat it all up, quickly too. Developers can't possibly keep up with fabulous to keep us 100% occupied 100% of the time (Which funnily enough, he still has things to do, he just doesn't want to do them). This brings us full circle, he's been playing a game for years in which he's been aware of the direction it's been on and seemingly will continue to be on. For what? No good god damn reason. If you're bored with a game, unhappy with a game and KNOW that the direction the game is on is unsuited to make you happy and are not willing or wanting to do any of the content that is remaining to you... Well, like I said, I have no pity for a masochist.

They could add TWICE or THRICE the content they normally do during large patches and it MIGHT last him an extra day or 2 and he'll be right back on here with his cheerleader shouting about how the game doesn't put out enough content to appease is gluttonous and then ungrateful attitude towards the game. FF comes out with polished content patches fairly quickly for an MMO. If he's not happy, and will continue not being happy and KNOWS he won't be happy, why is he here instead of playing something he actually enjoys, will continue to enjoy and like the direction it's going?o you... Well, like I said, I have no pity for a masochist.

Which is why Themepark games are badly designed in general for Western audiences. However FFXIV is a Japanese game and Japanese players most of them do not have much time to play games. So this content is perfect for them, the caps are actually good because it encourages them to get to bed early and get up for school. Which, isn't really a bad thing. However most MMOs these days are not made for content locusts like EQ/EQ2/SWG/Most old games were made for.

Sandbox games and player made content are a way developers can keep up. Since the players develop the content for other players.

SWG was amazing because there was so much busywork and crafting required other players to literally escort you across dangerous land just to get and place a harvestor. You had to hire players to escort you and it was pretty much a player made quest. So much potential in Sandbox games that are lost because developers are too busy wanting to make things and don't think players can handle it themselves, yet they gobble it all up. =P

Why am I not playing those games? Outdated, or dead. My computer can barely run them because of how old they are.

[Thunda_Cat_SMASH]

Not sure we're playing the same game here. I've got two jobs to sixty and I'm still finding a ton of stuff I want to do.

Between leveling alts, gearing alts, unlocking flying in all areas, finally, working on crafting, leveling gathering, farming MPG so I can get the Fenrir mount, working towards my PvP achievements and ranks, I have enough content to last me a long while.

100 floors? Im not saying every suggestion is 'worthless'. Hell there are loads of good suggestions, but doing 100 floors would take the devs an insane amount of time.

I picked none? My ninja is my main and it's level 60

Ah you're right, I do apologize. I misread the level as 50. Miscommunication on my part, I'm sorry.

in a similar boat, still plenty to do on my list - take that hiatus/quit if you're bored
