AT THIS POINT in World of Warcraft

[R041]

I feel like if there was some difficulty, or stats actually mattered more, if jobs had a job identity then I think it would be more exciting but after the story Endwalker is pretty bland now. I hope the next expac does better because if it continues like this I doubt many people will stay

It's just not gonna happen. These optimizations were 10 years in the making. Slowly gutted from ARR.

Yoshi is making no attempt at creating complex combat. Next expac, we might not even have combat tbh. lol

And the naysayers will still be right here, saying the same things, paying the same sub. It's like people pay just to complain. Never stops making me laugh.

I don't play for the combat, but for those that do? They won't stick around.

If you think I survived this long playing while the combat/dungeons just gets worse and worse over the years, you're nuts. I basically just play the auction house. lol

It's funny how you think that's some sorta gotcha. You actually believe WoW players hopped over here and went "Woah, the rotations are so fun and engaging!" - Most of them are already gone and back to WoW, maybe they got a house here but only login once a week. If it was so engaging, we'd actually have a lively world. Instead people just do their Roulettes just to do them, check their Retainers, then log off.

Lmao people don't realize that a lot of the naysayers just flat out quit. There's a reason why the naysayers on the forums are "newer" people (including those who might have joined the forums early but only recently started naysaying) while the defenders have been on the forums for years. Many of the defenders have literally been the same people for 3 or 4 years by my count now. The naysayers just quietly cycle out eventually.

Well, it is normal to leave something you don't like, isn't it?

And combat is fine. I enjoy the mechanics they hit us with in group content and I don't die in landscape pve unless I get stupid, so I think the game is just fine and that's why I'm still here. /shrug Different strokes.

I dont know how spineless someone has to be to play the race treated by the devs as a joke and you still defend them.

Where in my post history does it say I actually do garbage like Roulettes today? I stopped touching 90% of combat content in XIV after Stormblood outside of day 1 MSQ/Normal Raid. Can't even get queues to pop for the things that are actually enjoyable, it's all repeating garbage hallways, Praetorium, and CT. That's on top of the classes themselves being completely mundane now.

There are other games out there that do a better job of that, which is why I've managed to stay relatively sane the past 5 years. lol

My days are typically spent sitting around making gil off of AH because nothing else is even remotely engaging. That's my content now. Well, was - I login maybe once every 1-2 weeks now.

You make it seem like I can't finish all content we get each patch cycle within a single day or less with almost 0 effort involved. And I wouldn't consider doing MSQ content once every 4 months as me 'playing for the combat'.

Now WoW? I would say I play for the combat. Which is why when WoW players started playing XIV, they were likely looking for something in particular, in the wrong place. I just don't think WoW players want to AFK in Limsa 11 months out of the year.

Zzzzzz

Yeah right. If there's a cristicism, you HAVE to agree with it. Otherwise you're defending the game. I'm not interested in being a collective Hivemind, thank you.

by the way, I consider people paying for products they don't like SPINELESS

I like FFXIV.
Thats why I still pay my Sub, and Still play it.

But the Forums are a miserable place, and on occasion funny to visit.
