... if things continue the way they are well have exactly this ship on the news long before ffxiv goes p2p :SNo. Them saying "There will be a mount system" and nothing else does not mean it is "on the horizon" or even "actively being worked on". That's like if NASA said, "There will be a manned spaceflight to Alpha Centauri" and you would claim they're already building the ship.
wow, it amazes me still how many people are whining about "this patch is the last straw" BS. I have some advice for you:
If you hate the game THAT much, then QUIT!!!! No one is forcing you to play this game, and unless you're the Angry Video Game Nerd, you probably have NO reason to continue playing. Quit being so damn fearful of what others will think or say, and do what you must.
As for myself, I intend to stay on, having a level of patience that surpasses Bhudda.

Has it ever occurred to you (and all the other people who make the exact same knee-jerk statements) that we WANT a reason to continue playing, and the reason we're complaining and threatening to abandon the game is because we do not have "patience that surpasses Bhudda (sic)"?
I like this game, as I like all games in the Final Fantasy series. I want to continue playing it, but I do not have the time or the patience to slog through the 90% of lazy design, clunky programming, and tedious gameplay just to get 10% (or less) of moderate goodness, which will likely be in the form of cutscenes.
Interesting that you mention AVGN, who earned his fame by playing bad video games. I wonder what he'd have to say about FFXIV...
You have a decent enough reason to continue playing. I was referring to the idiots who post threads in the form of "DUR! THE NEXT PATCH WILL FIX EVERYTHING BECAUSE I SAID SO OR ELSE I RAGEQUIT!!! DUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRR!!!!!" Don't even try to deny it, that's essentially what most of the whiners are posting, and yet when they are disappointed by the fact that the most recent patch hasn't added content, or fixed everything according to THIER vision of what FFXIV should be, they simply whine some more instead of carrying out their threat, such people are hypocrites not even worth listening to.Has it ever occurred to you (and all the other people who make the exact same knee-jerk statements) that we WANT a reason to continue playing, and the reason we're complaining and threatening to abandon the game is because we do not have "patience that surpasses Bhudda (sic)"?

So I will say this again...
If you truly hate this game that much, then quit, if you want to continue, then stfu and do so, if you can't stand the game at present, come back in 6 months when the game has improved. Just stop throwing tantrums like a spoiled 5-year old because things aren't progressing as quickly or in the direction you want. It's not helping speed things up, and it just makes you look like a complete douche.
P.S. if AVGN played this game, I think we'd see a foul-mouthed Miqo'te with a name like S**t Eater, followed by a mixed review, as the game has both good qualities, and really bad ones.

Just a reminder to SE... we're becoming very frustrated.
Compared how much of the last year you've spent kneeling down selecting standard synthesis, any sort of outside world would be enjoyable.
You are not frustrated because you do not value time. Also, you do not value things that require thought. Unfortunately for those employed by Square-Enix, there are not many people like you. Square Enix needs to make money, and FFXIV just ain't gonna cut it with the way things are goin'.
