Why is FFXIV so unpopular?

I love how people say the game is terrible, but yet still play it.

Makes me giggle.

If it wasn't for 2.0 and our characters moving over, I doubt any of us who think the game is terrible would actually still be playing.

Translation: Your clinging onto sheer hope, that SE has something extraordinary that will blow our minds come 2.0. Giving money (gamble) to ontinue to play FFXIV 1.0, in sheer hope that 2.0 will be worth the Legacy price.

I sure hope so.. for everyone's sake.

You can have faith in 2.0 and not play 1.0 though. Having faith doesn't require you to continue playing the current version since it's being scrapped.

Not gonna argue one way or another, just pointing out that just because the game is being remade doesn't mean you're forced to keep playing it in it's present form.

Well if you want Legacy you have to pay for at least 3 months. ( which is a $30 dollar gamble)

Well that, and I like what I have seen so far from the gameplay videos so it's not just hope. And like I said, everything you earn on your character until nov 1 will carry over to 2.0.

And I agree, I like what I have seen thus far, ( but there are some people that seem to think that FFXIV 2.0 is going to be an Empty world like FFXIV 1.0 was) Which is far from the truth . Main Storyline ( Which branches into three parts), Lots of quest from the get-go, Primals, Dungeons that are 3 times the size as they are now. Exploring the new and improved areas, A New Area which has yet to be revealed ( On the main site), PvP, Crystal Tower.

And a lot more stuff from What's coming in 2.0 and whats coming shortly thereafter.

Doom and Gloom seems to be the fab these days :P

That would certainly make these forums a less infuriating place.

Highly doubt that but ok.
