Have you collected 99 economizers, learned every skill on every esper for every character, leveled everyone (even the ones you don't use) to 99, maxed out your GP? No? Then you aren't done with FF6 yet.

Gotten the 1/65535 pink tail in FF4? Leveled all characters to 99? Have 99 of every stackable item in your inventory, even the useless items? No? You aren't out of content yet in Final Fantasy 4 either.

It's obvious that's not what people are referring to when they bring this subject up and it's such a poor deflection of the issue. Any OCD person can invent tasks for themselves to do in the game and claim they aren't out of things to do, the problem is as a staple of the genre this game fails hard at the relevant content that comes with the genre expectations. Endgame PVE content comes with the territory of MMOs. That's just the way it is. So when it's not there, people notice and they do get kind of upset.
is it wrong that I was able to answer yes to every single one of your hypothetical questions?
