Zepla: Endwalker is the Worst FFXIV Expansion I have played

[Hysterior]

Glad she's stating her honest opinion.
I also think Endwalker was a significant downgrade from Shadowbringers. That's the expansion I have felt the least connected to.
And not only the game has been less exiting, but there are also a LOT of amazing games out there lately.
It feels harder and harder to even log back in.

Do they allow you to set up striking dummies there yet? Then I might actually do Island Sanctuary on this character...

Nope, but that would be nice to have.

Remember...its ok to play other games.
Take a break, and come back later.

I dont say this as some stupid asinine defense of the game or quoting Yoship. Its just a simple statement.
There are other interesting and exciting games out there? Then go play them. FFXIV isn't your life, or the only game you "need" to play. Go try and enjoy other games.

Played Breath of the Wild Recently, and Armored Core VI. Pretty fun games.
I would have never tried them, if the only game I ever played was FFXIV

I'm still not sure why it immediately has to jump to this individual extreme. We aren't asking to play this game non-stop, we're asking for reasons to log-in and actually run the content they're releasing this expansion.

That was an Extreme?....Jesus People. Lol
Reasons to log-in and play differ from person-to-person, there is content to log in and play, but I understand some of it doesnt have alot of staying power for some people.
All I can say is, hopefully this will be FFXIV's 1 Bad Expansion. Or at least just the Weakest Expansion

I took a break from about a week after 6.1 launched till about 3 months ago, so over a year, in that time I played other games (even now coming back to the game I still play other games)

In that year the game released (I’m excluding savage and up because I’m not doing savage this expansion if I did include it if adds 2 tiers, 2 ultimates and a criterion which isn’t bad)
-1 alliance raid
-2 dungeons
-2 trials
-1 variant dungeon
-a few updates to island Sanctuary
-maybe 3 hours of total story
-EO

So for taking a year off I got 1 week (being generous) of content rather than getting 3 sets of 2 days worth of content

Remind me again how this is a “solution”

Playing other games isn't the extreme here, I was happily still playing other games when Eureka and Bozja were current content and I'm still doing so now. Implying that that we want this game to be the only game we play is. We already know. We've been told more times than I care to count.

I didnt name a solution. All I said was "Its ok to play other games"
Endwalker is obviously the Weakest Expansion, and for some people the wait isn't paying off. Im not gonna sit here and tell you everything is fine and to be silent about issues.
All I said was, Other games exist, its ok to play them, and take breaks.
Didnt work out?...thats very unfortunate. I cant do about it.

People love to keep mentioning "Other games are popping up and look good"
And so my reaction is, go play them. Its fine!
But I didnt "Imply" anything. Its a simple statement that people weirdly take personally, and get the wrong idea about what Im saying.

It may not have been your intent, but it could be taken that way.

I'm not really going to argue with you about what means what though, it doesn't really get us anywhere lol

Nonetheless, yeah. This expansion is by far the weakest of the ones I've been here for, and I'm huffing full on hopium for Dawntrail because I have zero expectations of them displaying that they listened to the feedback with the next criterion to put more focus into DT.
