While it isn't exactly the right thing to tell people, it kind of is the right thing for people who find absolutely nothing good about the game. If people are at a point where they have no positive things to say about the game they are paying a monthly fee for, they should probably speak with their wallet and stop giving money to a company that likely only hears about 1/10 of the complaints posted on the forums. Quite likely due to the fact we end up with 50+ threads of the exact same complaint, that all die off after 2-3 pages - so it appears there isn't a cohesive complaint about it - rather than a 100+ page complaint thread where it is easier to track the reasonings. Companies are more likely to take note of big issues if a lot of people who participated in certain contain just up and vanish, or if large threads with one topic end up becoming common place.

Throw the troll threads into the mix, and any legitimate complaints within that thread get dismissed more often than not because of the reputation of the OP.

It’s honestly not about their feedback, it’s that they are incredibly rude and call anyone who disagrees rude names like bootlicker. Often without even reading what other people wrote.

It’s unproductive, unfriendly and unnecessary. Whether they enjoy the content or not is irrelevant to me.

To anyone who says I’m not 90 “how do I know the lack of content”?

TBH no idea how to set characters in this forum?

This patch was NOT worth the renew or waiting 4 months. The MSQ is dull and the raid, while it has a good soundtrack it isn’t worth waiting months for. The sanctuary island concept is also not fun for me.

If people can’t take criticism to their beloved mmo then ok? Enjoy your social life emulator.

I’m displeased with how the game is going, I hope they fix it because I liked FF very much. I am certain besides the loud fan wagon, that not everyone is happy with the lack of content or the unprofessional Zelda at the news letter.

Personally I’ll take yoshi advice and go play Diablo 4. Post Endwalker has been a complete let down on SE end and they need fresh new ideas to fix it.

But here’s hoping they’ll work on it.

Quick question. What did this game do previously that held your retention during a patch cycle?

And please for the love of god if you actually say Bozja/Eureka I swear to Hydaelyn I will electronically body slam you so far hard into the ground until everyone in this godsforsaken forum understands to get off their nostalgia glasses and realize that exploratory content was dull, boring, meaningless and the progression can be just as done as how any other content patch cycle which is about a few days or a week even casually.

[Boomoo]

Enjoyable story, raids, feast, Bozja/Eureka, dungeons etc.. all that lack in quality post endwalker.

Please don’t be cringe an say “Hydaelyn” again…

Ok um lets go over these points of yours one by one:

1. Enjoyable Story? Yeah buddy, Story is just story. Its a one and done thing and if you havent realized the length of story through patch cycle has been closely the same damn length. If you're complaining that the current one is bad, then ok thats fine. But If we're arguing about "content" then story isnt one of these points as it has been consistently the same experience in previous patches.

2. Raids. Again, if you actually pay attention to content release patch cycle, the game has been releasing alliance and normal raids at the same rate in post-expansions. What the hell did Ivalice/Omega + Nier/Eden did differently in its design to warrant retention?

3. Feast. And now its been traded for Crystalline Conflict and seasonal pvp rewards system with EW. In this case, we gained +1 reason to do more pvp because of it besides just exp and achievements.

4. Bozja/Eureka. I'll be amazon prime one body slam, coming your way. Bozja and Eureka are NOT good retention content. If you actually bother to check the forums during the SB/ShB era, you'll realize there were more strife than fun to be had. Also I actually tested how quickly I can get to progress one zone at a time within a given patch of its release via an alt. Guess what? I was right, you actually can do everything within a week or so in single zone of Eureka or Bozja. Hardly enough retention time to warrant the 4 months as you also claim.

5. Dungeons. It really sucks that we dont get extra optional dungeons anymore ever since Shb. Although I also argue that the extra dungeon content pre-Shb didnt do much to retain players anyway, because like everything else in this game, things are a one and done deal for most of it. The reason anyone would want more dungeons is to flavor up the game's world and to add more varied dungeon content at the roulette but nobody is going to just spam dungeons (besides glam runs) for the fun of it. There's no lasting system attached to it for endgame progression like Mythic+ which gets cycled in seasons (an idea I wish FFXIV adopted somehow).

All in all, you have failed to properly explain what any of these in previous expansions actually held retention. Because by the looks of it, the quality and systems are the exact same as Endwalker's.

Sorry too long to read or care. If you’re bitching about quality being good enough? Then that’s your opinion but you have low standards.

Don’t be cringe seriously.

Oh wow, already twisting your own narrative? I thought this was about retention but now you''re going back and arguing about quality?

Its so easy to see somebody get backed into a corner with their pants down and trying so hard to save face.

If this is about quality, then alright lets entertain that. Same question, Different subject. What exactly did previous expansions do that had better quality? Hopefully you can give me something more substantial than just listing the content.

Bro read the before post I said quality. Stop being cringe and throwing a tantrum.
