There is so much to do in this game that...

Anyway, horrendous mod beasts and erotica are essentially the future of FFXIV. Once a game starts waning off its official developer-supported content, users have to make their own to fill the gap. According to FFXIV Venues, there are hundreds of clubs active right now on North America datacenters. And that's just on a Sunday, when it's usually the slowest. Clubbing is the de facto endgame for thousands of users, whether you like to admit it or not. The scene has exploded, and you're one of the only ones who've missed the boat. Most players have likely been to one. This is what puts FFXIV on the map these days. Not raiding, not casual gameplay. Clubbing. Erotic roleplay. Modding. Other forms of erotica. It's by far the most modding-friendly and laissez-faire MMO out there, and many people deeply cherish FFXIV specifically for these attributes because no other MMO is quite as generous as we are. That's the truth.

Also... Wow. I have to be honest I never really approached it from this angle. Maybe I'm just here trying to derive fun and engagement from the story on the surface and it turns out it's probably just a flimsy intro into a giant world of underground online erotica.

I.... I honestly thought that guy really was just delivering pizza and those were real cops... I need to sit down and reflect on my life.

I find it extremely hard not to judge a couple of these listings.

[VelKallor]

There just needs to be content people can sink time into.

There is

Content made by: crafters who make or buy and use said mats to make a nightgclub

Content made by people who: create and run these nightclubs, using their imagination to

Create the places using the above mats and..of course...the people who attend them.

Thats content. Player made.

t. Not only that, but to me a bunch of savage listings is not a healthy state for a game where it’s either savage or bust

FF 14 is savage or bust? News to me.

A big game with a big player base needs diverse content. And right now there isn’t enough.

There is loads of diverse content: you just dont look at it or acknowledge it because it isnt combat based.

and you turn their platform into some soapbox to attack raiders.

Nope..I am pointing out the fallacy that there isnt any useful time based content outside of savage or ex in PF.

There is. Loads of it.

it’s about there being so little content most players don’t even bother grouping up to do it anymore.

Okay. Ill bite. What do YOU suggest should fill that alleged gap?

Lastly: to go back to your OWN WORDS

Forgive my cynicism at this point and I'm sure millions of excuses are going to be presented here but this is the reality of the game lately.

No one "needs an excuse" to not do what they dont feel like doing.

I dont see an issue here.

In this thread: a bunch of square whiteknights making excuses why noone runs content ON A WEEKEND, PRIME GAMING TIME for many people.

Dont need PF to do roulettes.

And then there's people like you who act like they party on a sunday night.

[Avoidy]

This situation is even worse on crystal, since loads of our PF content runners apparently head to Aether when they want to get shit done nowadays. I'll open it up and at best there's like... an unsync glam farm for some stormblood content, and then a whole lot of nightclubs that all look the same and play the same awful music. It is what it is.

??? i said the exact oppposite?
