    Is it worth coming back?

    I haven't played FFXIV in a few months due to school and life reasons. I've been thinking about rejoining now that I have free time again.

    I remember when I stopped playing that I started getting burnt out by playing so much. Has much changed in the past few months? Is it worth resubscribing?

    You may want to check out the huge content update that happened in 2.1. Plus we're getting closer and closer to another big one as 2.2 is just around the corner now. I still have lots to do even though I haven't skipped a few months like you, so yeah, there's plenty.

    I would suggest coming back, as @ShadowDan said there is plenty of new content, especially at end game. Here's my advice, because I did sort of the same thing and am on a small hiatus atm. Don't over play, if you get ticked, take a break, play ACIV or something . Also, mix it up, I got very tired of just trying to get the best and do everything for one job, however fell in love with it again when I lvl'd BRD up and BTN and CUL, now I have much more to keep me entertained and to think about while gaming.

    Thanks for the advice you two. I always have issues playing in moderation. I'll try my best though.

    Also, I'll probably be rerolling a character on a new shard. How fairs the population of worlds for a North West Canadian?

    Heh join the club. Mmo's tend to attract my attention and i'll end up playing 8+ hours a day and still not feeling like I'm getting everything I want to get done. I play solo alot and still manage to keep myself busy on one toon for 4-5 days a week between helping FC and Linkshell people and doing the solo farming and crafting that I like to do to make money.

    as far as Canadian goes, whats that Pacific or Central Timezone? I know here on Famfrit thats like primetime and theres always people doing stuff and shouting for stuff either on Limsa / Mor Dhona / Wineport.

    Is the population in game really decreasing already!? I'm shocked. I wonder where everyone is going? There's not much competition out there atm so seeing those images below is a little dis-heartening ...

    PS: I just returned from a 2 month hiatus myself. I got completely burned out due to constant grinding. Plus I have a 1yr old who needs my attention so I can't keep up with my friends who get more time to play than me...

    The game doesn't seem like it's 'depopulating' to me - I still tons of people around in Revenant's Toll or the three cities, obviously the time of day has a lot to do with it as well, there will always be 'peak times' when most players are on and 'quiet times' when most players are offline, usually sleeping.

    Even FFXI was like this - in fact FFXI was worse where I was used to large periods of time when zones were empty for the reasons I've already mentioned. Server populations are not static - they fill and empty with the clock.
