Will 21 Fix Boredom?

[DenzelTaru]

EDIT: sorry seems my thread title ended up as 21 not 2.1 sorry lol

I loved my time on FFXIV.. going through the story, levelling SCH and WAR to 50.. besting all 3 HM primals..

I got into coils and my great FC party is never on at the same times so I am at a wall with that but it doesn't even seem fun anymore anyway, more of a chore..

The game.. just, seemed to get really boring.. I am going back 6 years here but I remember getting to 75 as BLM on FFXI and still being incredibly excited about the game.. there just seems to be nothing here for me now.. I know other people feel it too..

And I know the game just released I can appreciate that.. but.. will 2.1 inject fun back into the game? or will we have to wait for an expansion how ever far away that is?

I love the friends I have met and i feel responsible for the FC i made so I don't want to leave but I just don't seem to enjoy myself at the moment

2.1 won't fix anything unless they remove coils lock out timer, make crystal tower have no lock out timer(loot lock out for CT and coil instead), make sure PVP gear has no weekly cap BS like myth tomes, and make myth tomes cap per JOB and not per CHARACTER.

I'm paying $13-15/month, let me play the game as much as >>I<< want to not as much as >>YOU<< think I should, Square Enix. I don't even need to be rewarded, I don't need loot, I just want to play the game.

edit:
To anyone who disagrees with myth tome to be job based:
http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ory-job-system.
You are aware you can make a new character for every job you want to level to avoid this artificial "barrier", thus having 300 tome caps per job, correct? Which is horrible, because it makes you COMPLETELY ignore the armory system at the level cap as a battle job(outside of 26/34 cross-class skills), which is a feature the game was advertised about.

Myth cap per job is a terrible idea, that was thankfully shot down.

I thought you were quitting?

Seems like when people quit they dont stop trolling the forums. They must not have anything better to do. lol

When some people say they are quitting, they really aren't. Just some people feel the need to threaten SE to change something instead of using their wallets to prove their point.

To the OP: FFXI Launch was capped at 50, and didn't have much in terms of endgame content. The time frame you played at was about 2 years into launch ( 75 cap). FFXIV ARR just came out, give it some time to grow into a great MMO. Within 2 years, I'm sure FFXIV ARR will be a great game.

Sure the cap is boring Agreed! but there is reason for it. You max out everything you end up have zero stuff do.

I'm paying $13-15/month, what gives you, or SE the right to say how often and how much I can play? How does it negatively impact you, or anyone in the world, if I play too much and burn myself out?

I should be able to play as much as I want, no caps, no restrictions, this is a PAY TO PLAY MMO, not a f2p one, I expect caps and restrictions in a f2p mmo, not a monthly sub one.

You either give me the entire game, no restrictions, but make me pay monthly, or you give me the game for free and have restrictions on how often I can play and how much I can play. Pick one, not some hybrid of both picking the worst parts of both(monthly sub AND restricting how often and much I can play) and blending it together into one single game.

But this is how this game is. Like playing the game as is? Then continue to play. Don't like the game as it has been made? Don't play and please dont come on the forums spaming drivel.

Have you never raided or otherwise PvE'ed seriously in an MMO prior to this? Weekly lockouts and currency caps are par for the course.
