Let’s talk future.

I have friends who just started playing, They have never bothered about the FF series or the game itself until they got to try.
They got stuck and think the game is among the best there is out there right now.

Poor with content that I think are not. although they say there is so much to do.
But if you burn the content in a month then you blame yourself that you do not have any other time than just sitting play every day for 16 hours.

i got in 1.0 all job / class of 50 started over with my friends on a new server and even realizes that there is so much I missed.
There will be more and more people just need to have some patience.

I had also become angry if it had not happened anything for a whole year then I had also posted something.

So no, I think there's a lot of things in the game you can do right now.

your whole story about the lvl 20 thing and the game sending you to a dungeon, and how you claim that is still a solo experience because you have to use the duty finder...is so false, because you can create your own party of 4 from your own server, at the same time, meeting people.....and use the duty finder to start the dungeon. so get your facts right

I can't believe this is my first post since Beta 3.

Now the game has been out for three months, with new content patch being few weeks away. Many players have already beaten the hardest content in game at this point and because there are no content they don’t log into the game till next Monday just to do coil. Also with little over an hour of instance grind they cap out of tomes so don’t have to worry about that.

Not nearly as many as you seem to think...

Most the time I found new players in FF14 ARR asking where do I group up for exp, sadly I have to tell them there is no real grouping to do outside of FATEs. There alone turns many new players away. Seem some of them don’t understand the way FATEs work or are turned off by the idea of LVing up by doing FATEs. I try and also tell them to do the main story line along with any side quests they find in area of said story quest line. This being an MMO they come to play with friends and do content with others. Seem to them all they get are Solo main story line quests, and solo class quests.

Huh. That's weird. And here, I thought my friends and I started the game together, went through every part of the story together, and then finished the main story together. We might not have been grouped up 24/7, but we were always playing together.

And I don't even know how many dungeon runs we've done together. Y'know, the real group content. The one you completely glossed over.

I'm still playing ARR and having fun. I'm NOT rushing through the content.

Boy this arguement is old. How long will we keep reading this crap?

Rushing content. l0l. You can run this game at a snails pace and be done with your main story.
Just because you went as slow as a snail grandma doesn't mean we all did. You act like we should all log on for 1 hour per month
as we're paying this game. Kinda want my money's worth.
Games been out 3 months. It was designed to run to the end and spam the same bs all day.

Thanks everyone for the quick responses.
Just want to say this is no QQ thread. I was bored with nothing to do in game so I decided to do something different and something out of my bubble (If you know me you would know I'm not one to be able to write my thoughts down), instead of standing in town or running an instance for the 100th time.

FMElan Happy I was the one you busted you posting cherry on xD.

Ariverderci, that's kind of the point of this thread I guess. I played early access and mainly did the story lines while lved my arcanist at same time, took I think 3 week I went at a snails pace. I don't play this game 16 hours a day or even 6 hours a day. And I have already gotten all relics and on turn 5 of coil. Would have it beat but our groups main tank left server.
Anywho I'm off to bed, big day tomorrow, good night everyone and thanks for taken the time to read. and for all the US ppl here Happy thanksgiving.

well I wouldn't worry about it...every game reaches it's limit eventually

[blowfin]

Looking at you broken Crystal Tower only letting us take 8 people of the same group in and not the full 24.

The way I see it SE is actually saving me a lot of time with this shortcoming.

Because organising 24 people for raids is a barrel of laughs and always goes smoothly. Not really worried in the slightest about that until I've actually played the content.

[FONT=Arial]Let me state that I have played FF11 from May 2003 – Dec. 2010

So you played the JP version for over a year?

[Caladbolg]

I can see ET Tha Future!!!!!!!!!!!

[Technyze]

One is the biggest issues right now is how the world feels small. That certainly needs to be addressed within the next year and the PR DPT needs to know that the teaser content should start flowing after the release of 2.1.

Agreed and the open world needs to hold some purpose. I played ESO for an hour in one zone and I felt that one zone alone was bigger than this entire game, I felt more adventure and explored more in that one zone than this entire game. FFXIV right now, as a friend of mine once put is a "Glorified chat room" with some instanced dungeons. Yippee!
