Tired of all the tired threads...

I like how you're telling everyone to find another game. If we did that, there wouldn't be a Final Fantasy XIV. I feel like this game is in danger and all we need is for a new MMO that will change the lame formula this game has to jump ship. I'm a die hard FF fan and even I know this game is not worth my time.

I'm pretty sure SE has heard you and many others voices about what needs to be changed to make this game more challenging. However, please keep in mind that your suggestions may OR may not work and you will have to deal with it. SE continues to work hard to make the game for the MAJORITY to enjoy and able to handle, not just a certain few.

I already gave a suggestion to this in a previous thread. Why not have SE reopen one ffxiv 1.0 server... Have people join it and try to test out what would work and not there? And then turn that into a standalone mmo.. Maybe even the ff11 crew would join.

This might be crazy enough to work!

Well, reality kicks in, ffxiv 1.0 failed because it was incomplete and they had to shut it down. FFXIV: A Realm Reborn is the result from adjustments and what not to make FFXIV 1.0 better. However though, it would be neat idea if they were to make a patch where we go back in time and relive the 1.0 moments since I wasn't around when 1.0 happened.

Able to handle? Well, this is where some of the community doesn't know how to make their shots count.

Some will say it's one of the easiest MMO made today, while others complained to nerf stuff like Pharos Sirius because it was too hard for the average casual type.

SE made that one hard in the first place because.. people cried that the game was too easy..

Go figure..

SE tries their best to get into the equilibrium of things.. but A community of humans.. won't change anyday, unless I'm into a different world.

Some are tired of the same old, nothing new, copy-paste with a little brilliance to cover-up. Works like a charm for the masses, while others will notice the same trend.. and would get bored with it.

We have the right to voice our ideas, that made 2.0 a big change over 1.0, and made SE some money.

Now, we still need to voice our happiness or digress, like it or not.

To those some who notice that repetitive trend that SE is somehow covering up, then why are they still hanging around? Leave the game alone until that shiny new patch that meet their expectations arrives instead of forcing themselves to playing it. Simple.

I for one appreciate to what SE brings to the table. They're doing the best they can.

All in all, no matter what SE do to make the game better, some players will never be satisfied. They expect too much.

Expecting too much, I don't know. Expecting stuff to be different, then yes.

I am not one that plays Assassins Creed 1-2-3-4-5, would be the same for me.

Final Fantasy, even if it's 1-2-3 up to 15 soon, each have their own unique flavor. I've tasted some, liked a lot of them.

But to be blind and to cover SE, that they are not reusing the same old stuff, this is what gets to me.

If you like it, fine, lots of us don't.

To say leave the game alone, the game might turn F2P. I don't know for you, but that ain't what I'm paying for, and even if they are creating a cash shop for some esthetical stuff, it's scary.

They did their best from 1.0 to 2.0, from 2.0 to 3.0, nah.

We are sticking to this great game, with hope for 3.1 and up to 4.0, to see if the stuff they'll put into place will make us happy or content, or not. It shall be reflected upon the numbers of active subs.

You are right, no one is forcing to play a game. When it's free. When you pay, you expect the best for your bucks, and.. they don't deliver to a lot right now, speaking from friends that aren't on the forums.

They can insert repetitive quests (I know it sounds weird) that could replace doing Fates/dungeons/trials/lame side quests that we dont read but skip (Moogles, I want to burn their fur now >.< ) for us to level up Alts Jobs.. not talking about Leves here btw.

Giving more XP to the main scenario, and only do these, no more side quests, but with voice actors, because the story is 80% of this game easily.

They could make a way so players won't ragequit after 1 failed attempt (This scares the hell out of my GF, which is playing WHM for now, first time playing this game, she love it so far, but some PuGs are.. she's skipping cutscenes, she watches Vids because we are "catching up" to veterans or people who have seen the same dungeons for many, many days.. (it's a shame, she should be entitled to enjoy the cutscenes like we did when we started 2 years ago.. but no, people can rage are votekick her.. <- that's not fun at all.)

And aye, praytell everyone would read that, but not every person is aware of the forums..

I Wish you keep up helping others, as I do, so at least we are 2 that can help making a difference (and I'm sure lots in here will find themselves in the same boat )

The only people that know what they are doing is SE. Give them time to listen, think and develop something that could make the game satisfying to those who demand change. Have faith.

The way I see it, if you don't see that change happening within the upcoming patches, cancel your subscription so you won't lose anymore money. As long as whatever percentage of the community are enjoying themselves, SE should be okay.

Right. It's what I do
