FF14 Becoming More "Solo Friendly" is bad, Maybe

[Xavier_Firbold]

I prefer the solo experience.

Why:

I play mostly at night when my kids are in bed. Queues are always 30+ minutes and party finder is dead.

As a hands-on player, trusts and solo play gives me a chance to learn content without having to waste anyone else's time or patience.

This gives me a chance to learn content AND classes at my own pace.

There's some days where I'm just so burnt out from the grind of the normal day, I just want to sit back and hit things and not deal with anyone else. There's only so much socializing a person can do before they snap. When the game becomes a chore, it's not fun anymore.

This is a great example and I'm glad you've found your niche. If I may ask though, does the "hands on" aspect include doing literally anything other than trust dungeons or are you specifically logging in to complete your dailies and log off?

If so, I wonder if it would be worthwhile for the dev team to create a more "ASMR chill experience" that some players can hop in and out of, while the other side has their complexity, difficult content and general "more high energy" environments. The Dev team seem to enjoy wasting their time on things like Hrothgar Ear-less hair for example, why not create a new game++ where this is possible?
