The achievements

[Eriane_Elis]

Some achievements make no sense (time wise) to complete if you were to be a completionist. But the bigger problem is that you cannot complete all achievements unless you were there for 1.0 and have a legacy account and continued to stay subscribed since then and participated in every event and won every PvP tourney. I'm not bothered by completing achievements because it's impossible.

I would much rather they stop with the mindless grinding achievements like S rank for example and focused on a better system. 500 hours for an achievement is silly, it's not an achievement it's pretty pitiful. An achievement would be more skill based rather than grinding or RNG which SE seems to adore.

“The achievements feel lacking” =/= “wow is the best game ever and I wish ffxiv was anime wow”.

You know, I wasn't thinking about a FF14 anime but now that you mention it, I think it would do really well as one, maybe... I mean given that they don't make the whole ARR ark about accepting a quest, turning 90 degrees, talking to someone else and then the quest is over. :P
