So uh, wheres the long lasting content?

[Youkulm]

And they conveniently forget that if you have a house you can't unsub, else you'll lose it!

You can unsub every other month. That's what I usually do, but yes, it does suck-- but also why do you need a house if you're not going to play for 2-6 months+?

once again ~40 hours of content for MSQ two weeks even if you didn't "no life" it kinda hard not to just eat through that content so quickly also i wonder how many other games release expansion DLCs that keeps players playing for months/years later. hell TF2 has been going strong for 15 years i wonder why even with it not getting supported by valve recently. even without community servers the base game was still being played quite a bit. and i'm pretty sure once the bot situation gets handled it'll go back to being alive in the normal game.

completely different game design

tf2 is 100% multiplayer and based around short 20 minute matches. the repeatability of the game is astronomical

most people do msq once and thats it

[Ransu]

how is bozja mandatory have to log in every day content? please do tell me

In what world is bozja mandatory daily content? You could complete your relic outside of bozja and logging in daily is not required to complete your relic.

[anhaato]

players will always consume content faster than it can be created

its a bigger losing battle to frontload everything

The issue is that there's nothing with replay value available at the current endgame. Nothing. Only savage, which is completed in 2 months. If people were consuming all of a varied pool of content quickly that would be a different story, but as it stands now we don't have options PERIOD. If you've played this game at any point during the previous expansion, you'll probably end up with very little to do in the current expansion.

Ive done savage. Ive done crafting and gathering. Ive done mount collecting. Again, im asking for THIS EXPANSION. not something 2-3 expansions ago. Yes ive also done like, 6 eureka relics, my bozja relics etc, Ive done a fair amount of anima relics as well. So please tell me.What is there to do now in this expansion.

What would you be doing differently in WoW?
Genuine question.
Because I feel like I have way more to do in FFXIV than I ever had in WoW.

Have you tried Treasure Hunts I forgot to mention that?
Maybe put together an event with your FC and friends and do them they're fun and they added new ones in EW.
We have a ton of events in our FC.
Maybe help other groups get Savage clears or run EX farm for the mounts/ totems.
Level other Jobs, do their EW role quests and then the big finale quest you unlock after doing them all.

I just dunno why you'd restrict yourself to '' only EW content '', if you did the same in any other MMO you'd run into the same issue either that or you'd just be doing forced grinds that you'd probably hate.

I wish I had a better answer for you but I don't: Find something to do in game like everyone else who stays during droughts, or play another game. Those are your options. Again, I get the frustration of not having anything to do in the game you want to play but that's never how FF14 has worked. There has never been anything to tether you down and forced you to stay subbed ( beyond housing ). I doubt that's going to change. YoshiP has been very clear about wanting people to have lives outside FF14.

He wants people to have lives outside of 14 yet..housing requires you to have a sub. Also, im not sure why we cant just have new content. Give us some kind of content to do in the overworld, anything. I pay a sub do do this patch and the content only lasts 2 hours? Beyond ridiculous. And people wonder why the player numbers are declining.

Why are you even bringing up wow? Why do you always do this in literally any thread offering criticism. I swear to god wow is your scapegoat for everything. " Well at least x is better than wow blah blah blah." Please for the ladt time stop. Not everything is ff14 vs wow. I didnt even bring up wow and ive hardly even played it. I dont see why you even bring it up WHEN I SAID NOTHING ABOUT IT FFS.To answer your questions, yes, ive done treasure maps i have all the rewards.i have all the ex mounts so far already. Other jobs are horribly made and have been gutted and simplified.

Ok so at least one person would rather get the bulk of what we have and keep the smaller stuff for patches. I can understand wanting that but without more content you just end up with the same problem we have now but earlier.

I agree completely with the gear laziness and would like to see new designs more, but what to add to the gap of content itself? If we have the problem of not enough content then what new content or more content do people want to keep us busy?

I myself miss having more dungeons personally. And I think they could do a lot to add to the replayability of the dungeons. Something a step up from normal difficulty maybe. We lack midcore stuff imo.

criterion dungeons (which is supposedly harder dungeons), beast tribe quests, cosmetic farms, etc.. is more than enough to keep people resubbing every major patch also if the content is long lasting and actually worth doing and keeping up with, it'll last years. look at POTD and HOH and the necromancer title scene. even multiple years later alot of people go for the challenge and time consuming aspect of soloing POTD and HOH or going for speed runs with premade groups/solo runs.

Speak for yourself, I've found lots of replay value in running treasure maps with friends and doing hunt trains for achievement mounts. Again this is all subjective guys. If you don't like the current content it's time for a break and to play something else.

THATS THE POINT. we're asking for bozja level content not more ducking roulettes or anything like that. so once again why does it matter if we get bozja level contetn at launch or earlier on in patch cycles like 6.1?

1. It's a half patch. We never get substantial content in a half patch. Starting to think you're just a troll or incredibly new to the game and have no base of information about the patch schedule.
2. You don't need a house if you're not playing for months on end. Sorry.

Tried being understanding but I'm going to stop feeding the trolls. Best of luck to everyone staying under the bridge. Cheers.
