Been real, been fun, never been real fun

The one thing I will say is the red scrip cap is too restrictive given how long the content has been out. I have no problems with the scrip system outside of the cap being too low. In my opinion I would prefer they did away with the cap all together, if someone wants to invest 100+ hours in a single week to fully gear a single class or if they want to spread that 100+ hours over 2 months...that should be up to them. The only argument I can see against removing the cap is purposefully slowing down people to increase the amount of subscription payments SE takes but even then it is currently too harsh a cap I think because the content has been out a very long time now so increase it already.

I completely forgot Gil sellers were a thing, haven't had a tell or shout in way over a year on Balmung

I often forget they exist too only because I've been able to tune them out after years and years of seeing them.

Eh, the first 4 floors was cleared in most 220 gear and it was downded within a month after release. It's either your group or you just not being good enough to do it.

Err... I'm sure you mean the latest 4 floors, not the first ones. You know, the ones that awarded 210 gear? ^^; So how would people have gotten 220 gear within a month of that?
But yeah. For raiders, it's definitely possible with "current-at-release" gear. For non-raiders... prepare to go in "overgeared", same as with coil. If they were easier... people would complain that it was "faceroll" content =/

To add to this, people were farming Seph EX in 205-215 gear without issues. I was doing some SephEX last night on my alt to try to get him a clear (I've been way lazy with him) and people are just...terrible. I was told I was top DPS by a far margin and all the DPS were about as geared as me, all with their 230 weapons (and no, it wasn't because people were constantly dead. This was true even when deaths were few before the wipe).
Unfortunately, these are the people who think that raids need to be easier, because they can't even do their rotation properly...let alone mechanics at the same time. Learning and getting good at the job you want to play makes content a lot easier.


EDIT: I do know some people who prefer to overgear content (sometimes wait a patch for certain content), and that's fine. They don't want nerfs to the content, they know they just aren't skilled enough to go in on release and wait til they have enough gear to make up for their shortcomings. Nothing wrong with knowing and accepting your limitations

I hate this attitude. People are allowed to share what they dislike in a game without having to provide solutions to it. On top of that, a good portion of the time when someone does provide some alternate ideas, they get told "If you don't like it, play another game", or "that's not how this game works and never will". The XIV forum community can be balls at times.

I agree with this. The game does have a lot of issues that need resolving. so if Op wants to complain its his right as a customer to do so. Its just his opinion so he shouldn't be called whiny just cuz he chooses to state it. his experience just might be different than the majority doesn't make his opinion any less valid.

To be fair a lot of people aren't exactly amused that his form of complaints is referring to something as being complete AIDS..... that tends to invalidate any complaints and issues when its referred to in such a way.

Bye!

Sorry it didn't work out for you, hopefully you can find something that meets your needs, and is more enjoyable for you. If you ever change your mind, Eorzea will still be here.

1-3)For the first three points all I've really gathered is you want everything handed to you with the least amount of effort.
