Top 3 reasons people leave XIV: Sleep, Work, Food. What will Yoshida do to fix this?

I wish I had a Ring of Sustenance.

This ring continually provides its wearer with life-sustaining nourishment. The ring also refreshes the body and mind; its wearer needs only sleep 2 hours per day to gain the benefit of 8 hours of sleep. This allows a spellcaster that requires rest to prepare spells to do so after only 2 hours, but this does not allow a spellcaster to prepare spells more than once per day. The ring must be worn for a full week before it begins to work. If it is removed, the owner must wear it for another week to reattune it to himself.

The only thing that made me want to quit was Atma. I was pretty close to saying "Screw this" and just leaving. Nothing in this game made me abhor booting up and playing more than grinding that out.

Fortunately I got over myself and just did it. Took 140 hours over the course of 8 days, and I definitely don't plan to let something get to me like that again, lol.

So what is Yoshida going to do to fix this? Is it too much to ask for one or do we just need to get used to it?

Once they figure out VRMMO's with PS VR and/or occulus we can log on and then they can lock the servers and force us to live in Eorzea and the only way to escape is to beat endgame content, i.e Savage raids and EX primals.

As an actual IRL licensed doctor I agree with whatever statements made in this thread about Dr. Google.

I give it two weeks top. "Content was too easy. I've cleared everything. Patch didn't offer enough content. When's 3.2? ect"

Especially with only like 8 story missions, itll be a short patch. The only thing that has any hope of keeping ppl entertained is the airship thing. I can see it being something fun ppl can do that lasts longer than 20 minutes, and you might not do every day. I'm sure the community will find someway to complain that gold chests are too hard to get or don't rain down from the sky when you enter the place or something. And it'll prob get nerfed along with everything else, but I hope the airship thing is fun for at least a month or two.

Invent a way to hotwire the game into your brain so we can play while at work/school/ sleep

Let's be fair. They could provide 30 story mission, none of them being of the fetch quest variant, six completely new dungeons with no DPS checks - just new mechanics - and some people would still find something to complain about. Even if it amounted to, "This patch has too much content!"

I'd have said the responsibilities of being an engaged man trying to build a family...but then my fiancé plays too.

Well dang, how am I gonna be bored now?

OP, you forgot one more reason for leaving this game and argueably the most problematic - wife/SO.
