Never Make Your Players Have to "Find the Fun"

[Callback]

My point in all of this, is that while playing several different MMO (many I didnt name here), it gave me a huge appreciation for FFXIV.

Funny, playing XIV has given me an appreciation for a lot of the MMOs I played in the past. Many of them originally upset me with their grinds, but their core gameplay was so much more fun than anything XIV has to offer, even with its sub fee. And even despite all of that, XIV STILL has insane grinds that feel even worse than the f2ps because of how dull the actual gameplay along those grinds is.
