I would prefer them not adding more and more new tomes...
I would prefer them not adding more and more new tomes...

I'm up for all new tomes until we eventually get the Allagan Tomestones of Yoshida they mentioned.. haha we'll have 10 kinds of tomes I wonder how long the screen would look like~
Can't hardly wait!



It's true this is good for the player base, now everyone can just pay for a single sub fee of $13 once every 6 months ($10 for us legacy folks) and catch up to everyone who worked hard to get their gear for over those 6 long months in just a week or two and skip the wait for new content with nothing else to do. I'm really glad they consider WoW the only MMO to have ever existed and vertical progression the only way to do gear updates, my wallet thanks you very much. Other people should be glad they're looking out for our finances and stop being so entitled too.


Ooooor you could just stop acting like an elitist snot rag about virtual gear in a virtual online game. Don't like it, don't pay their sub fee, and don't play their game. They're not entitled to make content that caters to you or anyone else. They want the most players playing their game and having a good time, that's just good business sense. If that means that every six months they release new gear and use vertical progression, then that's what they do. Honestly, until I came to these forums, most of the players I encountered (even hardcore ones) were enjoying the game, even if the content was limited, but that's because they understood this version of the game is less than a year old.
Absolutely no one is forcing you to pay Square Enix $10-$15 a month to play this game. There are things that people should legitimately complain about (bugs, exploits, etc.) because they affect how the game works, but whining how Square decides to dole out gear in their own MMO is not one of them. Most hardcore players are going to be running stuff with their Guilds/Free Companies and their other in-game friends anyways. The vast majority of hardcore players don't bother with Pick Up Groups, so I don't know why any of you actually *care* that much. It doesn't affect your enjoyment or playthrough of the game in the slightest. This feels like looking for stuff to complain about because openly whining about Square Enix is the in thing to do nowadays.
I'm sorry that Square Enix isn't bowing down to kiss your boots right now, but there's nothing in the world that says they have to. And whining about it like an insufferable twit isn't going to change that fact.

Right, for some reason this seems to be a popular opinion and I don't really get why. I understand unsubbing due to lack of content, 2.1 was nothing but a catch up patch and that leaves anyone done with Turn 5 Coil with nothing to do. If I had been able to get into coil in 2.0 I would've unsubbed now too, but I digress. What I don't understand is this mentality of "I worked for this - you need to work for it too!". The advantage of getting stuff done before a nerf/removal of lockout is reaping the rewards before anyone else (having multiple classes in full i90, having an Allagan weapon, etc.). You also get the advantage of doing the new content IMMEDIATELY - which, bare in mind, will be behind a lockout. You'll gear up and get all the new shiny trinkets before anyone just starting the game. It'll be faster to get geared up, but it's been that way since 2.0 began - Darklight wasn't always infinite and based on a token system, people used to run around in AF+1 and liked it. For some reason everyone wants to be forever special, having conquered the hardest content and gotten the glorious rewards... but this is patch 2.16. Coil is by no means difficult, everything in this game is based on a pattern all the way up to Twintania. Until they release some ridiculous boss that requires actual strategy akin to FF11 bosses... then you really don't deserve to be forever special. The only people who deserve a reward right now are BG for beating Twin before they nerfed Twisters, everyone else gets the glorious silver medal of having stuff before everybody else gets the stuff. It's not even elitism anymore, it's just pathetic snowflake tears.

Because waiting a week for your myth cap to be reset was so much work, am I right? People still need to earn the myth... they just don't have to wait as long. Waiting isn't exactly work.It's true this is good for the player base, now everyone can just pay for a single sub fee of $13 once every 6 months ($10 for us legacy folks) and catch up to everyone who worked hard to get their gear for over those 6 long months in just a week or two and skip the wait for new content with nothing else to do.

Oh but you misunderstand me my fellow player, I am indeed glad about these events as they've just saved me some charming pocket change and indeed I can opt out of paying a sub fee for subsequent months just like you've kindly suggested, now I can spend that hard earned money on other services and sources of entertainment. I am however saddened that you've opted to use such a harming language as that is not very nice at all but I still hope you have a nice day sir *tips fedora*.
