Weekly Caps: Worse than Fatigue

[MomoOG]

Sure thing, I had zero pieces of Dorklight before today, well known for that in my ingame social circles in fact, what can I say, Healers really don't need any gear at all. Clearly I've been playing non-stop before now.... I only even decided to actually focus on Philosophy because I am that bored. Kind of disappointed I can only carry one Radz-at-Han since I intended to get enough for all Relics before bothering with any Dorklight.

Okay so we found your problem. Apprently you just want to circumvent the natural progression of the game and skip DL and go straight to mythology items. Sorry thats not how it works. Looks like you have plenty of reason to log in to get your full DL but you just think you are too good for it.

Who plays for 10 hours a day? I can be done with endgame on 30 minutes a day, outside scheduled events such as Coil... That is how damn casual endgame is...

Thats cause you already played 10 hours a day to get to the point where all you need to do is run AK once a day.

Personally, I'm glad the cap is there and I'm looking forward to getting to the Myth grind 'cause then I don't feel pressured (by myself, not blaming that on anyone but myself, lol) to grind every single night to try and get there as quick as possible. Instead I just hit the weekly cap, and then play some other games I still need to get to. X)

On topic - caps should be removed. And to all those saying "But then you'll end the game in 1 month!", my reply is, then make more content?

Content will come.
There is enough content already actually, FFXIV is one of the games with the most content I have seen on launch.
But you know... people want the content to be easy and fast and non stop, thatings that cannot and will not be done.
So either find something to do in game or you just find some other game to play in the mean time and stop playing 24/7.

But for some of us there really is not that many things to do.
Some of us have all jobs caped and multiple relics. The cap is somewhat frustrating and only put there because the overall lack of content.
I have been saying since the beta
SE should wait a few more months to prepare more content before release or they would place some system like this in place.

System is fine and needed, level your chocobo to max.

I agree with you.
I have also replied in my previous posts that Mythology is not the only end game gear in ARR
But people ignore allagan, darklight and craftable 2 stars gear because they want everything to be the easy (let me get it right now) way.
SOrry but MMOS dont work like that and as I always say to them, "Learn to play".

Honestly, if I'm only playing 10% of the game, please do inform me of what the other 90% is.

Yes the other content is revolved around leveling your other classes. 1-49 is the part that gets you to end-game ( cap). Without content ( and yes even in 1.0 grinding off of mobs is content, just some view that differently), you wouldn't even be able to get to 50.

In 2.0, you have a variety of different ways to level up ( Fast or Slow) it doesn't matter they're still a way to level up other than FATES:

1) Guildhest
2) FATEs ( which in my opinion if people don't like it they shouldn't be doing it because it's the fastest, a game is meant to have fun, not to be takin' like a job)
3) Levequest
4) Hunting Log
5) Sidequests ( read them as well some of them are kinda funny to me XD)
6) Dungeons
7) Actual grinding, it is there and sometimes can be just AS good as FATEs ( Japanese Team got 1-50 that way)

I just don't understand it, If there's no end-game then play another class you think is fun and Mix up the content above. Just doing FATEs and getting to 50 as fast as possible will only making your boredom worse. Anyone can do what they like, I'm merely giving advise.

The leveling up content is there ( some areas need tweaks for sure), and I understand there's not much end-game. So while you wait for 2.1/2.2, You can do other classes you may want, or level up the 2 classes that is conjunction with your main job, to take skills from.

Let me help you understand then: I don't really enjoy playing non-healer roles.

I imagine that is why I'm not going out there and playing another class that I think is fun, I already leveled the class that I think is fun, I'd like to play it now if that is alright with you.

Then all I can tell you is unsub and wait a couple patches. Also, if you are a 1.0 players ( and I remember your name from 1.0) then I understand why you don't have much to level up. Starlord Ravine has all my 50's but I choose to make a new charcter for a new game, I am glad I did. I would have nothing to do on Starlord Ravine since End-game is limited kinda atm.

Edit: Again I said it's "advise" you don't have to take it. ( It's not good advise) you may say. Well, I don't know what to tell ya.

Been about a year, I think, and I'm still trying to fathom how can somebody be this big of a fanboy, even when faced with all the BS this game is now full of. Starlord, are you even reading what you're posting? Your own "advice"? You yourself are admitting that this game is extremely short on content, to the point where you had to make a new character in order to not run into the endgame brick wall, and you're still blindly defending the game even when it takes contradicting yourself in your posts? Are you serious, man?

Agree. Adamant fanboyism is a huge plague on any game, nothing will ever improve if devs get so much positive fanboy feedback that they think everything is fine and dandy. Constructive criticism IS very useful. Some people should try it on.
