    theres a difference between content and fillers. why would i want to cap my seals when theres nothing worth trading them for? whats the point of completing hunting logs when you just need to cap for one class to unlock everything for the GC? whats the point of capping your chocobo when you cant even use it effectively anywhere without disrupting your gameplay? whats the point of achievements when you cant even show your titles and get rewarded with useless vanity items that are just limited to crowns and old design crafting equipments? whats the point of leveling every class and crafts when crafts are shafted and content lockouts limiting how fast you can gear your other classes? All of these are not real content. its just fluff. does nothing for you apart from making you spend more time doing menial tasks for no real rewards.

    ive done all these months ago. your friend is right. he just got to this point a little later than i did. and trust me. a lot of other people are starting to experience what ive been experiencing several months before.

    there are a ton of things to do, the problem is, they made everything but dungeon spamming a "i do it for fun" sorta thing. Nothing but running coils and primals has purpose. Achievements lost their purpose because luminaries are the same as quest items. Crafting has no purpose, chocobo just holds you back.. the game gets in its own way.

    I got near capped i90 gear on my warrior, Currently I'm logging only to do dailies then logging off.

    Duty roulette for parties is about the only thing that will change that.

    Commendations.
    If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
    If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
    If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

    Only if they should be getting a commendation.
    There are always exceptions to the rules!

    I clearly stated why I used the term “content locust” and has nothing to do with the reasoning you elude to.

    At no point did I insult anyone. And super nice example of passive aggressive.

    At what point did I say I don’t enjoy this game?..and no, not right at all. Again, sounds like you didn’t read properly.

    Who cares? I don’t. Based on your tone I would like to request you black list me. Thanks in advance.

    At no point did I label sorting inventory as content. I said it is something to do, like chatting with friends, organizing vanities for preference, and studying content (youtube) in order to complete content.

    And slap me? You mad bro?

    PROTIP: Letters make words, words make sentences..we communicate with them. Grow up.
    You should follow your own advice. I like how the guy you're quoting has more thumbs up than your original post. This gave me a good laugh:

    You seem pretty upset. Snipped and flagged, really? Nice try, the forum didn't censor that I censored it myself. You're over there stewing when it's not that deep. Should probably avoid making forum posts if you are so easily bothered by anyone with an opposing view. Maybe you should go sort your armoire items to calm your frazzled nerves.

    and to talk about lack of reading comprehension, sad.

    Telling him to grow up is name calling. Also you call him passive aggressive then drop that last line. But I guess its just the pot calling the kettle black.

    Anyways good for him, he has more or less beat the game, he did the majority of the meat if he wants the salad he can, clearly he does not want the salad and no one is forcing him to. The best comparison I can say is you can play CoD all you want with just one gun, changing your gun to get all the cameos does not necessarily change the experience. To each there own, some people love grinding some people want things to have benefit. .And ps we all do things for benefit, even the most benevolant help others for the feel goods that came with it, so they are just as selfish as everyone else.

    I think this is the most fair statement concerning FFXIV's content. This game just isn't sustainable for people who can throw themselves at it for several hours a day. When they finally have it farmed out for the 1 of 9 jobs they're interested in playing, in their eyes there's just nothing left for them to do.

    I'm one of these "Completionist" types too as in I want to experience all of the content the game has to offer. I like battling, crafting and gathering, but I realize not everyone shares the same interests in the things I do, so naturally they're going to find themselves without things to do much quicker than I am.

    It technically will have taken them 7 months to have negated the highest end content. (Coil) Crystal Tower was put in as an afterthought when it should have been in at launch, and Ex Primals was horizontal progress at best. How fast they invalidate what you can get from Turns 6-9 will probably set the precedent for this game in terms of how fast they churn out content to replace the former. (by my estimations, every 6 months)

    Also, Yoshi-P has touted this game for "very casual" players, meaning the people he intended this game to be for will be those who are just finishing all relevant content by the time new stuff is being introduced, at the very best. I'm sure myself along with many other people would prefer how content is being handled now, opposed to FFXI where it would maybe take several months just to get even ONE item out of a complete set due to RNG and having to roll against 6 other people every time. I feel like I'm accomplishing something every week I raid in this game, opposed to doing Dynamis for 6 months in FFXI and having nothing to show for it because the item I wanted never dropped or I would always lose the roll to someone else.

    This community has to be one of the whiniest I have seen, has anyone actually played a game where there really is a severe lack of content?
