All The Doom Threads Are Strange To Me

Who's saying that?

Am I being gaslit.

Should I be making posts about how Shadowbringers needs more content because there's no Deep Dungeon, or Hildy, or Allied Quests for the Tribes, which I enjoy?

Complaining about ShB now is a moot point considering you got all of this in Endwalker, but if we were in ShB times yes you would have been entitled to complain about them not adding content you'd be expecting to be there. I wasn't in these forums when ShB came out so I can't say if people complained about Hild or Deep Dungeons, but yes you should have.

You're welcome to, and many people actually totally had those complaints at the time. There were actually a lot of folks who considered the Shadowbringers patches to be a major step down from Stormblood (content-wise) as they were coming out. IMO, Shadowbringers postgame is only really fondly remembered because a significant portion of the games current population started playing the game during Shadowbringers.

No, I'm serious, who said exploratory zones should never exist again, or that savages shouldn't have rewards? I've never seen anyone say that.

Most posts are about Endwalker being devoid of content, because one exploratory zone where you have to grind for three months doesn't exist, saying the new stuff like Variant Dungeons, Island Sancturary, and Deep Dungeon, and Allied Tribes returning doesn't count. Or complaints about how easy everything is, when it's about the same for me, I die a few times and then it's easy, same as any other content.

I've also seen some complaints I can understand, like the exploratory zones are meant for midcore people who want some challenge but not a super difficult one. Which you'll still get, albeit to a lesser extent.

I haven't seen anyone say Savage needs to be removed from the game, or exploratory content shouldn't be in the game.

Complaining about all this is a moot point, since Endwalker is now over and we're in the downtime waiting for Dawntrail and they've said I believe a new exploratory zone is coming?

Ah, I didn't know, sorry. I wasn't around the forums then. I didn't start interacting with the forums until they changed Alliance Roulette.

WOW WOW WOW WOW

Okay, we get it, you didn’t like Shadowlands. Let me finish your post: the whole point of FFXIV is to not be WoW, and since WoW is a video game, FFXIV shouldn’t be one. It should have cutscenes and then no content at all so you can unsub and play other games (non-WoW).

Have you considered consulting a human rights lawyer? It seems that Blizzard is falsely imprisoning people because they’re forcing them to play WoW. That seems like a violation of international law. You see, FFXIV opposes slavery, which is why it has no content: that way you’re never forced to play against your will!

People claim the game has no content.

As a new player to FF14 coming from wow. ( Ive mained healer in wow for like 15+ years ) there seems to be immensely more content in FF than WoW. Granted I am only at 51 and around lvl 40 for the msq but this game does a great job at not only giving you a ton of content/mechanics to play around with but they do a very good job at introducing us to those systems/content in an immersive way.

Having a blast with FF :3

Thanks for your output, nobody asked. The game has been degrading every year and its getting worst and worst and worst. period.

When you realise it's just players typing out really dressed-up rants; and that they are simply trying to decompress and vent, it becomes easier to not take them too seriously.

You must be really good at your job as a tour guide. To sell something that is shit.

This was actually genuinely funny to me, I appreciate the laugh!
First of all, I've been critical of WOW since the end of Legion, though Warlords didn't exactly cause my heart to throb either. Shadowlands was certainly an incredible low point, but for me WOW peaked in Legion and has only gone downhill since then. Story-wise especially.
As for the rest of it, I'll simply say that you obviously can't make any good-faith arguments, given your absurd dive into comedic hyperbole. Therefore, I see little point in expanding my reply.
