FFXIV: ARR becoming TORtanic

[Juubi]

Seriously, with the way things are progressing, it won't be long until this game follows the footsteps of SWTOR:

- No PvP upon launch (even SWTOR had PvP on Launch)

- Little Post-Game Stuff to do (AK,CP Runs, Long Duty Finder Queue, Tomes Farming)
Very boring and repetitive stuff.

- Little incentive to do a max level alt class, leveling them is entirely dependent
Upon mindless Fates grinding and minuscule leve quests, seriously why shouldn't
former low lvl quests reset for a low level alt?

- Crafting is very boring and inconsequential and a majority of players have no interest
In wasting their time crafting wherein they could be doing other more fun stuff

- Worthless monster drops that give nothing but stupid crafting materials

- Very hard to accumulate Gil in this game because monster loot sucks.

- Ridiculous teleportation and repair fees

- No server transfers upon launch

- Terrible Instance Dungeon queues in Duty Finder

- No vanity/fashion items upon launch

I hope Square Enix remembers that first impressions last and hope they won't regret that these game deficiencies won't be solved too little too late like SWTOR did.

lol, well their first impression was 1.0, and they certainly more than overcame that.

Most of the stuff you mention are either a matter of preference, inconsequential, or already slated for implementation.

No PvP on launch? So what? XI/XIV was always designed as a through and through PvE game.

I don't understand why people still don't get this.

Another person who rushed through the content and is now complaining about lack of content.

<<sigh>>

Perhaps you shouldn't have rushed, eh?

Agreed, I can counting grass outside of Ul dah. Already counted 50% of the area.
Plenty of thing to do~

cant see your arc's gear but looks to me like your choosing not to do anything...

Noone's arguing there's nothing to do, just the stuff to do is absurd.

How many CM/Prae's/Aks did you do to get all that darklight? Yeah, that's the problem.

Do you have full DL on your paladin too now?

See I'm the reverse, I'm almost full DL on PLD 50 and sooooo bored, and was leveling whm 40 but realizing he'd "need" full DL too, and that's depressing.
