This has become a 2 day game for me... Hopefully CT doesn't have a lockout on it.

Lets look at it this way SE tried the no lockout thing in FFXI. Delve has no lockout you can keep going back in over and over as much as you want. People capped out on gear pretty fast in like 2 months, then started selling runs to people who were less skilled / didn't have a ls that did delve for 20m a run. Then complained they had nothing to do and quit the game.

The whole reason they have a lockout is to slow down progression so people will continue to play.

But after 2 days a week....there is nothing to do, so people are going to quit the game.

Why don't you just roll 1 2 new toons and raid 3 times a week then ? I dont get people

Increased cost per month, FC/LS hard limits, people having to remember that you play 3-4 different characters, etc.

Same can be said for WOW.

Log in tues do random df then clear raid then log off for rest of the week.

craft/level other jobs/gear other jobs/farm/do achievements for funsies

I'll concede that there's not a lot of content at endgame right now and I as well am looking forward to more being added, but having said that it's not hard to find a reason to login pretty much anytime I feel like it and finding something to do. Even if it's not as "meaningful" or "productive" as Coil.

The issue is not that there is no end game content, we know there is very little because it's a new game. The problem is you can only run that content once a week and then you're just locked out. You then run a couple of quick dungeons to cap, and again, you're done with this game after two days a week.

The game works against you from having multiple characters, instead of just multiple jobs (increased cost, no leveling bonus of other classes, etc) that just hurts with the lockout even more

After Reset:

Day 1 : Raid (clear)
Day 2 : Finish Myth cap if not already done on Day 1. Think about maybe crafting or banging head against invisible fate wall on my 3rd job.... then inevitably log off until next reset.... I would love to run BC even if I couldn't roll on gear, for the love of jeebus, make BC a 1 roll per week instance.... instead of char lockout...

so you finished coil turn 5?

[Zumi]

Well other games let you run older tier content for fun, mounts/pets ect you may have lists. Given that the game just started this older tier content doesn't exist.

Because SE is afraid this become a 2 month game for the hard core players.
2 month to get all myth/coil equipments, and then AFK until next patch...especially 2.1 will not bring anything beyond coil.
