I've been playing since ARR and still like the game. There were times when I wasn't very active, only played a little here and then. But it's still fun to me. I like the world, the characters abd many features of FFXIV.

But of course it's not for everyone. You can't say the game is bad only because it's not really to your tastes though. Maybe I or anyone else wouldn't like some other game that you like very much.
