My problem with leveling up in FFXIV.

[OhnoozeMyToes]

He's complained about chocobos, traveling, reading and the gameplay. Just what is it about FFXIV that even appeals to him?

Are you serious right now?
1) I did not complain about chocobos I said I didn't want to run around a map on my chicken after working all day and not having much time.
2) I did not complain about traveling I said I didn't just want to spend a lot of time running around on a map with not having a lot time.
3) I did not complain about reading but AGAIN reading with only an hour or two to play.
4) I said nothing about gameplay at all and that particular quote was about the one class I can't seem to get into and not the game as a whole.
You're spinning things like CNN/FOX man, stop your trash comments and stop putting words in my mouth.
The whole point was that with little time in the afternoon I wanted to be more involved than just running around a map and reading. I don't understand why you're so offended but you need to stop twisting what I said.

1. You insulted a key mascot of the game by referring to it as a chicken.

the last thing I want to do is read and travel around a map

2) I did not complain about traveling I said I didn't just want to spend a lot of time running around on a map with not having a lot time.
3) I did not complain about reading but AGAIN reading with only an hour or two to play.

the game play is so mediocre imo.

4) I said nothing about gameplay at all

If that was the point, then why is your only question

Am I alone here?

? Cause it really comes off as a trash post when your looking for fellow players to complain with because you didn't actually ask for advice in your trashpost:

I’m a pretty new player so take this from my point of view but I have had some issues with leveling in the game.

Until you get to the final expansion there seems to be no reason at all to do any questing other than the msq. And yeah FFXIV seems to do a great job for story but the problem for me has been that you do very little gameplay or experiencing the world and spend most your time traveling and reading all the story text. So when I get home at night and have an hour or two to play, the last thing I want to do is read and travel around a map so I end up just playing a low lvl job and doing levees so that I can relax and get some game action.

Am I alone here?

stop your trash comments

Mascot? You're all butt hurt because I refereed to the game's "mascot" as a chicken?
And you have issues with reading comprehension because you're so easily upset when someone says anything negative due to the love of your chicken mount and this game.
It's all good...everyone else seems to understand what I'm saying. You're the only one on attack mode. It's ok though, have a great day....I'm headed home to ride my CHICKEN.

I never said I was upset. But your insults of the game and of me reveal just what kind of thread you intended to make here.

Honestly, you're equally guilty of trash comments with how you wrote your initial post. You would have done better to say something like "I have only have an hour in the evenings to play. With the amount of time it takes to read and travel, I don't feel like I accomplish much if I try to do side quests. Anyone have some suggestions for content that would make more effective use of what time I have?"

Instead, you begin with complaints about world building and throwing out insults about chocobos. A chocobo is not a chicken, and many consider it insulting to call it one when you can type chocobo just as easily. It's little wonder some of those replying have a hostile reaction.

Probably better for you to focus on the constructive replies to your query than reply to those who took exception to your own trash comments.

That is the sort of response you should be avoiding if you want people to take you seriously because you are behaving just as badly.

I don't see the issue with you referring to it as a chicken - but I fail to see the actual difference between complaining about chocobos (as a summary of what you said) and your exact statement about not wanting to run around a map on your [chocobo].

And people talk about WoW fans being dbags....FFXIV clearly has the same issue. Feel free to report me, I'm completely fine with it.

That's because you're a rabid fanboy.

I can't figure out if you're really this dense or if you're trolling me.

You know I'm not hurt or anything but you should know that your rude attitude towards people with different opinions doesn't help the game at all.
Not cool.

Are you completely lacking in self awareness?

Again I said I acted negatively because of how you addressed me. You're not saying anything I didn't already point out.
