Time to Quit

[Supersnow845]

I'm gonna be honest with you guys. You may as well just stop wasting your time holding out for 7.0

At this point I severely doubt that the next expansion somehow will answer all of your content prayers. The combat isn't going to change, the questing isn't going to change, outworld content isn't going to change, class design isn't going to change and the game will NOT try to hold your sub hostage via grindable chores.

This is the game. This is FFXIV. The only way 7.0 will mean anything to you guys if somehow they just completely rework the entire structure of the game.

I'm saying this because it's shocking how much I'm seeing people holding out so hard for 7.0 to somehow be vastly different than what we've had so far and I'm not talking about EW.

The reason I’m holding out for 7.0 is for a field content zone, I know that they won’t change (hell I’ve been playing since legacy I know how 14 works)

My interest in the core gameplay loop died in late stormblood but I love field content, I’m basically holding on for one more field content zone, even if we get one I’ll probably drop the game in 8.0, it’s obvious their job design and content decisions revolve around people who don’t actually like playing the game so I know anything good is just a stopgap for me

Im sorry but how can you? Exploratory content is so lackluster. Its all just FATE grinds and the only actual good pieces of it are the raids, which require a bit more effort on communication. If you want FATE grinds, go do so in any of the other EW and ShB zones, believe me you'd have the same experience.

I really want something different for 7.0 rather than just add in another boring exploratory zone.

Because exploratory content has logos and horizontal progression

Being top of the DPS less using deep profane on WHM because I am 10/10/10 on honours with +15 haste armour is just a feeling that the lacklustre main jobs completely miss, it’s about the only way to have fun on a healer these days

And exploratory content is still extremely profitable and you can do it all while socialising with other people, communities grow up around field content, people come watch others duel and offer advice, people hold Cassie so everyone gets a chance at her earring

It’s everything I want in an MMO
