Stop with the FOMO

[SophiaDL]

All that text, and not a single rebuttal of what I actually said.

"waaaaaah I want all the rewards for free I cant do crystalline conflict for 2 days that's too hard ! I need a year to do it and I want people to not have what I dont have ! I shouldnt have to make any effort, I pay a subscription I deserve it ! waaaaaaaaaah"

Each season is like 3-4 months long it’s plenty of time to casually obtain the rewards

Oh I know, but this dude literally said few months back that he wanted a year to do it LMAO and also that it was disgusting FOMO to remove the rewards after the season is over

They could just leave old season passes up and available. The rewards are 100% personal anyway. Literally no one would be worse of if someone in 7.0 could just choose the current season pass, rank it up to 25, then swap over the previous one, rank that one up to 25 and so on.

I would 100% be on board with this as an alternative to what we have now.

It works perfectly fine as it is now though, so there's no need for that

Some things are exclusive to people playing at a given time, and that's perfectly fine

I disagree, I think that makes the game actively worse as some of those rewards are pretty good and people should be able to get them. No one would have any right to complain. Didnt expect you to be one for "it was always like this" arguments.

The hell it is. The Regalia should be a permanent addition to the Gold Saucer rewards instead of the oversized eyesore ship. I want to see my party members as we’re cruising to the next map.

Not a bad idea at all either

FOMO is bad, especially when the game is largely already shorthanded of both rewards and giving people a reason to play at a later point in time.

There are a lot of currently exclusive rewards that they could introduce back into the game, e.g., through Treasure Trove that would give people a fair excuse to aim for these rewards at a later point in time through treasure trove, achievement tokens, MGP, etc., really.

I genuinely don't get this one as a problem. There's no FOMO in FFXIV on ilvl because as soon as the next raid gets released, new crafted gear that's a higher ilvl than the previous Savage gear is released. No one has to worry about being far behind except those trying to do Ultimate when it's first released and those players are rarely going to be coming out of nowhere to do it.








If players would stopped travelling off Dynamis to get parties for content (unless part of a multi-DC static), they would find a larger end game population than was on the data center when it opened 10 months ago. I don't have a problem getting PFs to fill in a reasonable amount of time when I list one on Dynamis because there are players that would rather be doing content on Dynamis.

You're going to have a hard time staying happy in a MMMORPG if all you think about is how fast you can get the best gear and you find hard time gates more annoying than the RNG loot systems other games like ARPGs use. They might shower you with gear so you feel like you're making progress but if you track when you play, you'll realize that endgame gearing is going just as slow if not slower with the RNG systems than with the time gating.

No, I want the slow gear grind. One where I don't run into weekly caps or lockouts though. I keep hitting the loot lockouts and caps same day of reset day and going nowhere as a result 6 and a half days out of 7.

No I will not pay to avoid playing pay off crafters, that's non interactive and will feel like I failed. One of the reasons I quit WoW DragonFlight was because Blizzard tried pushing crafting as a replacement for playing the game, it wasn't just the weekly vault loot and raid lockout FOMO burning me.

What I want is what we had for the levelling experience of FFXIV from 1-89. Hitting 90 and being steered into weekly caps and lockouts and being told to just get crafted gear is F tier meaningless. If you want me playing current raid tier when it comes out, it has to be uncapped. Low drop rates are fine, but keep it uncapped. I'm here for the grind, if you don't offer one then I won't touch your content.

Anyways I see playing on Dynamis as a blessing, as it's keeping me away from the trash timegate+FOMO endgame. Sure I want the cosmetics, but I refuse to be trolled by the usual gamedev hand in cookie jar timegate and caps.
