Are You Having Fun?

[Marael]

I made a bunch of money spirit bonding lvl 49 accessories while grinding out tomes and I'm spending it all on leveling up crafts now. I'm having a blast crafting, way more fun than I ever had grinding anything on a battle class. The crafting system is fun to mess with. Oh, I'm sure I'll burn myself out on it sooner or later, but until then, it's about as laid back as you get, and pretty damn fun besides.

Aye ,right here!

Sure there are problems. My favourite job is a lil gimped and ive burnt myself out on crafting and gathering but im still enjoying running stuff and playing. the community can be a drag at times. But im assuming thats about to clear up as subs start rolling and the haters leave. (Not that there's anythign wrong about hating the game, each to their own. just understand people either may not agree or may not care what you think).

I'm loving it! We beat Titan HM for the first time last night with all FC/LS (We've built up alliances with quite a few FC's through a LS). We're all pretty chill and laid back and after all of the attempts on Titan, we came in last night focused up (still laughing and having fun) and downed Titan in 5 attempts... EVERYONE was cheering in Mumble everyone was happy, excited a big wall in the progression series was demolished. One of our healers even popped open a bottle of champagne! lol People just need to stop being so serious, remember a big chunk of content is missing right now (Crystal Tower) that's a big gap in gear between AK and Coil that's just MISSING. Won't have to Farm the DL gear for everything soon enough. Just chill, have some fun, and enjoy playing with your friends!

I'm having fun. Yesterday I discovered wineport for the first time, and I was amazed at how it actually has it's own look now, compared to the little hamlet it was in 1.0. In short, the feeling of exploration was a very good one. Besides that I actually do enjoy the combat - yeah, shoot me for it, go ahead! It's true. I have a character who's appearance actually meets my picky demands when it comes to character creation, and though it plays only rarely, I enjoy the soundtrack. La Noscea's in particular.

If there's one thing bringing my spirits down about this game, it's the forums in the state they are at the moment. I thought they were bad in 1.0, but man...

[Leira_Raine]

That's what got me thinking! I was hoping to hear some positive responses, and lo and behold, I did receive 'em! I enjoy the game, once again since I stepped down from acting as babysitter. I decided to do more things for my own self without hearing the constant complains about frivolous matters.

Yesterday I had fun just sitting and talking! Oh and practicing in Natalan, creating a storm of dead Ixali! That can't be anymore fun... can it? Well, yes it can. I actually do things super late at this point just due to the fact that it seems to be the most laid back of times, especially when you're an LS leader.

I love doing AK! I also love acting stupid in AK! As a tank, that is my sole given right to act stupid and try to make my friends die.

Also Terabyte, I can't stop laughing at your sig.

Ooops I qouted the wrong post. Im having a blast with the game.

[Constance]

Having loads of fun.

Leveling slowly, as many things as I can. Unlike the bads who rushed to 50 and are now whining endlessly.

[Rivienne]

Me me me!

The forums get negative, so mostly I come on to try and diffuse things from a different perspective. I don't really succeed and yeah, every now and again I get sucked into the negativity too, mostly because of the really problematic players out there that I run into occasionally. For awhile the spam got me too but now even when it happens I just blist and move on (and I clear out my blist every few days) . But thankfully the majority of the time I am just enjoying myself.

I spent the first few days of early access just mapping the realm across 4 of my characters, exploring every place I could safely go (and a lot I couldn't. hurrah for home points ).

Since I have done crafting, leves, leveling and experimenting with various classes, Talking to random NPC's. Doing a lot of dungeon runs, almost even decent on some of them now. Basically I am doing a bit of everything. Except playing the market board. No thank you.

No the game has easy very repetative content that is just stale after the 20th time. All the bosses in the game do the same attack order every time you fight them so if you know that order bosses and dungeons are easy they should add some randomness to the fights. Instead of square just taking material from other mmo games that go f2p they should take some material from ff11.

Bro, are you mad?

...cause you sound SUPER mad.

Having so much fun that I halted gearing my monk. Got him to 50 with AR. Found out I needed to buy a crafted weapon for relic. Started crafting and determining what I really wanted to do in the game so I've decided to change my DoW/M main completely.

So crafting for now. Then when I'm ready my main will shoot to 50 in twinked crafted/melded gear and will let the end game raiding, pvp, high level crafting, and housing begin.

With proper uses of Leves and gathering xp books(from the GC's) you can fly on leveling.

Gatherers are definitely the hardest to level up imo. With the fate system and bonus XP to all DoW/M under your highest level DoW/M receiving 50% bonus xp there's no reason not to just use up all of those quests the first time through the game IMO. Using the Books on the Gatherers was still tough and in the 40s+ it takes I think over 10 leves to get a level which is a lot compared to the crafters who get the triple AND HQ hand ins.
