Why should I renew my subscription?

Why should you renew?
Absolutely no reason. There's no reason to wait until your sub expires either. Leave now.

i wont be renewing my sub til the new update. this shit is old and stagnant, and even when the new update comes out it doesn't look like there will still be much progressing to do.. 30 days to play new SHIT then onto something better. this game was not what i was expecting.

Thank you very much for giving us notice that you won't be renewing.
Lol, nah. We don't care.

This forum has more SE-can-do-no-wrong white knights than any fanbase of any MMO I've ever seen by a landslide.

It blows me away the crap you'll put up with.

You can enjoy a game and be a fan and still be dissatisfied with certain decisions or releases. It's okay, I promise.

I wouldn't say it was higher.

The funny thing is, as most mmo vets who've played a few can tell you: Fans always say snarky things like "Bye bye", "Can I have your stuff?", and "There's the door" instead of acknowledging the game's issues until eventually all that's left is too few to support a content cycle that the fans want, and then they also leave.

All the recent mmo failures have followed this. I'm not saying 14 will fail, I'm saying the indifferent attitude toward a game's problems do more damage than good. As much as a game needs its die-hard fans to keep the pace, it needs the casuals looking for fun more than accomplishment.

It's like the WHM tanking titan (Kudos!) or the bikini titan people, or the 1 PLD/7 WHM Ifrit. That's all great, well, and good, but isn't it a shame that that's the best thing you can do with your gear? Go mutilate old content?

How fast I can crank WP for tomes I don't need is only interesting and defensible for so long.

There is not some hidden thing you didn't realize was in the game that one of us is going to tell you about. If you can't think of a reason to pay, we aren't going to be able to find that reason for you.

That said I felt the same way. I was getting increasingly bored everyday, so I just stopped playing for about a month. I paid for 6 months up front so I knew I'd be okay to just come back if I felt like it. Now I'm back and having fun again, it really helped out a lot.

If you really are so bored that you can not stand to play, I'd suggest trying the same. My only regret from stopping is that I lost out on 1200~ myth lol. Other than that it did wonders for my enjoyment of the game.

The game is not going anywhere. It's allright to take a break. Once you come back, not only will feel the game with fresh air again, but there will be much more content to go through. Unsubscribing isn't necessarily the end of your XIV experience.

Ran into some ffxiv arr players in the last eso beta and we were talking about this game and it was funny really, we were all from different servers and we all agreed the game is boring. There is just so many times you can run wp and ak. Just not fun anymore.

They didn't "&*#^ up" at all. How many "progression raiders" do you know that have maxed out every job and maxed out all gear for all of those jobs including craft and gather classes?

This was the Bioware/EA response when SW:TOR was released with absolutely no endgame content to speak of. FF isn't quite at that point, but all the same, I'm not sure I'd borrow strategies from the playbook of the biggest flop in gaming history.
