the "go play another game" mentality

[Supersnow845]

^though to be fair that was on square first

They let the forums rot away because they never engaged which led them to being in the state they are now

We all pretty much agree posting on the forums is useless outside of validation for ideas but it’s not like it’s the players that made it this way

It's a total waste, and to be blunt, I feel like the claim on their part that this is where we should leave feedback is a flat out lie at this point.

people keep telling eachother that to solve there dissatisfaction with endwalker or shb or DT is to simply go play another game.. so lets talk about this for a second.

what are some other games you think you would inspired to play instead of ffxiv. and .. if nothing changed in DT.. would you come back?

I always play multiple games. At this point its FFXIV, NMS, Minecraft and Subsistence.

Realistically it is purchase numbers and log in numbers that tell the devs what is working and what isnt. So telling someone to play something else makes a bit of sense in terms of fostering change. When engagement numbers drop enough the devs do notice. What they do about it? Who knows

It also makes sense from the simple fact that playing something that is not enjoyed is really not a good thing.

As for me I always play multiple games and when I tire of one I walk away and try something else. At this point though I am having a blast in FFXIV so I am going nowhere.

It's worth remembering that back in the day, the board GMs here were exceptionally trigger happy with the bans resulting in the likes of Dervy, Bokchoi and an unhealthy chunk of world prog raiders getting banned here when trying to theorycraft and discuss in-depth. I'm fortunate I didn't get a permaban for my 1000dps Nevereap SCH video.

It's because they no good arguement to say when the game is getting critics.

Been playing BG3 and league of legends to keep myself occupied, and I might give wow HC classic a try. If DT is truly nothing but the same I'll probably end up finishing MSQ then quitting for an indefinite amount of time.

Yeah, this. There isn't much else for SE to say other than make empty promises that they'll fix things, which many of us know is just lip service at this point.

There isn't? Could've fooled me. I guess this means any and all criticism of the game is accurate and correct no?

Oh my god......somebody with a Functioning Brain on this Forum.

If thats the case why is it the number 1 response everytime there's a complain thread about content
2nd one being "dont rush bro"

It is a reality that its better to play this game with another one, but too many people use it as an excuse to not accept any criticism for the game. I wish xiv players were a bit more critical of the game they claim to like.
