To be fair I went to Aether to play with a friend and she's since moved to Costa Rica. I moved to Primal to play with an old FC mate who has since quit the game and then to Crystal for the same reasons. I normally bounce back to Dynamis for the free transfer and I honestly like the community aspect of it more, but it's not ideal. Every FC you join is a crapshoot that is probably worse because of DC travel and not needing to be on Dynamis coupled with all of the single-player aspects that have shifted player behavior. Why would I join an FC for anything other than the buffs when I have trusts?

I'm not saying I'm the victim here. All I'm saying is something shifted in player behavior and attitude and it sucks. I can't seem to find a decent FC and if I move to let's say Aether if it opens up. What's to say that the very same aspect doesn't crop up again? Before you could help people clear content and make friends. Now I can't. Nobody is ever on and if they are they're doing their own thing and ignoring the FC.

How the hell do you thrive in that? Brave new world and all that junk, but I have been trying. It's not that easy.

I was honest with everyone. That's been my experience in the last few years I have been playing. And it's only gotten worse. The FC I am in now is only good for movie nights and that's a sad commentary, to say the least. I just want someone anyone who wants to play the game. Do the new raids with. Give me a reason to not just uninstall and quit.

It just feels dismissive to write it off like I'm this psycho when it's just a completely different game. I blocked that one jackass, but they were right about it becoming an afk lobby simulator.

Sorry, I'm venting on how shit It's been. Can you blame me? That was rhetoric of course you will.
