End game... Bored. The facts.

[FutanXIV]

This thread is like someone getting to 60 in wow 1.x then complaining about boredom and no endgame while refusing to do Molten Core.

Yeah, I'm loving how all the self-proclaimed 'hardcores' refuse to do the 'hardcore' content because it's too 'hardcore'. lol.

But that said, I think tomes were a bad design choice and they should've made them drops from the dungeons(or at least both). I feel like tomes/tokens are something you do once the content is irrelevant to catch people up, not to slow people down.

I am having fun with the game as well. But there are things I see that need to be addressed since LAUNCH, not two days from now. Defend the good parts of the game... whatever they are, FINE, don't make an excuse for them though. "It's ok other mmos don't have good....." "It's ok, most mmos are like..." It's ok..." Why do you want this game to be crap like those other mmos. YOu do know that ALL THOSE OTHER MMOS WENT F2P RIGHT? So, it's ok if this game goes f2p because that's what most mmos do now.

You shouldn't have to put a game on hold for a year to be playable for most.....

I'm not making excuses for them, they do need to add stuff for the max level characters, I am not denying that. I'm just saying you won't be seeing it till a year to have loads of end-game content ( realistically), development takes time ( end-game content will come in all the updates though, so even around the 6 month mark end-game should have a decent variety!). Which is why I advise you to do other things while you wait for end-game to be "Developed". It won't just pop up in front of you I can tell you that.

Yes things need to be addressed as any MMO even the best, needs stuff addressed. I do admire that you want the game to be the best it can be though, but being a broken record doesn't really help the issue so much ( because they see that you and other people want X thing). I don't know what else to say to you.

Right now "Most" people can't even get past the Titan Story mode fight, let alone get there character to 50.

Hint coil is fun! oh if you completed the main story its sort of mini storie that keep continuing.

there is stuff to complete and more will come maybe to much free time?
content sure is boring with pay to win you should go to rift they have plenty of that.

Its a face though, if you dont enjoy crafting and want to stick with your main class, there is alot of limited content, even if they made wander's palace alittle hard and give same tombstones as AK i'd be able to rotate between them.

[Ralemont]

I know this is somehow an unpopular opinion... But if they added something to DO with the best gear in the game, it would fix most of the issues (with most MMOs). When the only point is to get gear, the game is over once you get the gear. I'd like to use the gear once I get it for more than doing everything I already did to get the gear.

If they added content without gear upgrades, the typical MMO player would not do it. There is always going to be a point in MMOs when you have the best gear and nothing to do with it.

Another "End game complaining", or "I'm not getting what I want" thread... Yeeeaaaaah.

[NuggetJack3d]

And yea, i'd be one of those guys that bought a decent party for his titan run, because honestly it is a lot quicker for me to farm/craft 700k than play the duty finder lottery for days and hope no one in the party sucks, one or two players who suck especially if they are a tank or healer then the whole party fails because of them, not my idea of fun really.

[Tupsi]

Hmm no he is pretty accurate of the assessment for the current end game.

The person you quoted generally seems to defend this game, so even if you have evidence for your "opinions" or observations he'll basically chime in and say you're wrong.

[Phandy]

End game just feels awkward right now. I wish there was more structure gear layering along the lines off:

Finish level 50 storyline at CM. No tomes reward.
Introduced to the first 8man Raid in Praetorium - drop iLvL60 Loot - put on Duty Finder - Reward Tomes
3 Dungeons (Wanderer's Palace @ 100, New Instance @ 100 and AK @ 100) that reward tomes to buy iLvL 70 gear.
Primal Hard Modes for iLvL 60, 65 + 70 Weapons.
Crystal Tower - 8man raid - iLvL 75 loot
Crystal Tower - 24man raid - iLvL 80 loot
Bahamuts Coil - 8man - iLvL 85 loot
Bahamuts Coil - 24man - iLvL 90 loot
Relic Quest for iLvL 90 Weapon (possibly finishing in Bahamut's Coil)

Doesn't seem too drastic and would easily provide more content.
