IS it just me... or is FFXIV boring?

I think he meant generic as in: the car is red and it has tires. is a generic way of saying why you like a car in particular.

we're talking about the engine transmission drive train and suspension being lacking which may also be about cars so would be cup holders and the gps but those don't make the car actually function do they?

It is not exciting. But neither are the alternatives that white knights love claiming is the god of games. It is all the same thing. Whack monsters that are repeat of last levels monsters, until you reach cap. Repeat dungeons until you got armors.

Which is why I look more at the surroundings. Like are the publishers jerks, or are they trying to rip you off, or is the graphics nice? SE are very nice compared to terrible companies like EME, Frogster, GameForge, AeriaGames etc. that could release the best games ever, and I'd run for my life anyway because they have zero interest in the game and just want to steal your money.

I rolled 3 characters, played through the storyline each time as one of the different 'trinity' roles (heal,dps,tank), made 3 relics, +1'd one of them.
I dont really want to see AK or WP anymore but its all people want to grind endlessly, I found coil to be rather underwhelming when I was asked to sub in for someone missing.
Crafting got old pretty quick and is a nightmare with the inventory system, gathering is terrible - no wonder people bot this kind of stuff.

Should we keep paying a sub just to login on monday and cap mythology to get gear that makes future iLevel 80 crystal tower stuff (whenever it finally shows up) pointless?

I'm terribly disappointed at the lack of randomization in dungeon runs, always the same enemies in the exact same spots, exact same layout with exact same patrols? Grinding a dungeon 10x+ a week would be more interesting if it had some randomness.

Its kind of funny (sad) im only just logging in now on mondays just to cap mythology so I can 'dress up' my characters in their ilevel 90 class specific gear.

I was doing the same , then my Sub ran out . And i realised. Im not going to pay for a game . When all i do is login on Monday . Cap my myth then log off and have no reason to come back. Maybe on the weekend to try coil . But why bother . I mean the accessories are nice. But not nessessary as no content really requires them yet. It just makes AK/WP the painful dungeons i loath doing OVER n OVER again slighly easier.
I also had what you have the full Trinity and + 1 so i gave FFXIV the chance . But was let down again.

I think the game needs more different things to do. More choices so to speak.
We have the usual level a job, gather, craft and kill, dungs and collect better gear.
The crafting and crafting are not really that different from each other so gaining levels in any one of them feels pretty much the same.
For instance WoW had the pet battle system which was fun. Lots of pets to collect. No i am not suggesting we make the game more like WoW.
There will be the Saucer to look forward to which will have mini games but atm when i get bored i end up logging out when i would actually like to stay logged in.

The most fun i have had is with fishing. Nice and relaxing, watching people run around me, looking at the scenery etc.

So many players, absolutely crashed this game without taking any of it in.

Part of this is SE's fault... They did say they would make it easy so that other's could catch up with the Legacy players.

If you smashed your way through FATES and did the minimum that you have to do to get your Relic and now you find yourself with nothing left to do other than farm Tomes or weekly coil... Then of course the game is boreing.

You should try a game where there are 9 different classes to level all with specialized jobs... each having it's own unique questline.

Then the game could have several unique crafting or gathering classes again each with it's own quest line and 100's of recipes each.

And of course this game should have like 20-30 dungeons to explore on the way to leveling up all these different classes, and maybe a main story line of like 150 quests or so to complete.

Tons of side quests... special faction quests all of these things would be a game that has tons of content that would offer so much to do you'd never get bored.

And of course an achievement system that tracks just how much of the game you've completed to remind you that there's still tons to do out there just when you think you're getting somewhere.

I think I've heard of a game like that... what was it called again? Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn! You should check it out.

Honestly I totally blame the FATE system for giving away way too much exp... If this wasn't the case, maybe more people would have actually played the game, and we'd see way less topics like this. I'm so glad I'm Legacy and got to level up my toon under different terms.

20-30

Yeah I wish XIV did have at least 20 dungeons.
