is this game near the end of it's life?

I dont think, that this game is near of its death or something. I just think that the developers and community reps dont really listen to the players anymore.

I don't think it's near it's death either, but when you keep eating French fries when you have high blood pressure you'll eventually die. Just like if you keep giving the same re-hashed content and formula over and over people will eventually get bored and leave. Yes some people aren't bored yet. But you will eventually of it's ALWAYS the same pattern formula.

Thats a pretty bad analogy since even if you don't have high blood pressure, you will eventually die if you keep eating french fries.

Since you will eventually die no matter what. lol

I dont think it is Dead either but there was just a big percentage of people who left since Heavensward. I see it on my friends list. I also started playing FFXI because of my board-em with FFXIV. FFXI just had a huge influx of people from FFXIV and most are saying the same thing about FFXIV now and why they left.. Cookie cutter dungeons, recycled content, never feeling like you get anywhere. The harder content doesn't reward you anymore than doing easier content..

But I do not believe the game is dying or at its end but it is at the point where if they dont change something they are going to have a mediocre game.. There are still plenty of loyal people who will pay to do the same things over and over or for glamour.



I have have not de-subed yet because I think the game has a huge potential, I am getting worried SE does not see that or is even listening anymore. I think they are more worried about how they can get people to buy more stuff in the cash shop. The cash shop was supposed to make the game better and did that happen? I am loosing my confidence in this game. Even a dieing game like FFXI feels fresher than FFXIV. I really think FFXIV has a good base to build on I just dont think SE feels like throwing resources at it. I mean look at housing and still not real fix. Housing is another thing that is really cool if they take advantage of it and give a people a reason to use their houses.. It just seem like since end game SE has no idea what to do with FFXIV.
