People need to stop calling it burnout.So as the title implies, I'm kinda burnt out on XIV for now. Haven't really logged in all that much to do anything other than a few obligations. That and I haven't really been having fun with the game in general with the current expansion. It's mostly just get Savage done, farm the current EX trail for the mount, and maybe a few side activities here and there like the Cosmic Exploration and Deep Dungeon. Maybe do an Ultimate with a close friend group as well, but other than that I just don't have much drive to play.
I've kinda done most of what I wanted to do and it just seems like forcing myself to play is not healthy and seems to make the game less enjoyable. What is it that's keeping some people logging in every day? Kinda having a hard time understanding whats keeping people tied to playing this game every day since some in my friend group are guilty of that and its a tad annoying tbh (not to the general player base but my friend group). There's plenty of other games out there to play in the backlog and in general. Also another question would be what would any of you suggest to do when suffering from burn out?
Burnout is when you play the game so much that you get exhausted by it, what you're describing sounds more like boredom.
The solution is ultimately the same, play something else that you're actually having fun with.
