Another "they quit" thread

[Lewtskie]

Well done on being the second person on assuming my thoughts and being completely wrong.

We never 'assumed' anything about you; you made your thoughts clear as day. And it's not what you say, it's how you say it, and how you explained that you felt pity because someone was proud just shows your not akin to those who enjoy what this game offers. And there's no need to 'defend' this game, it's just a game and every game has hits and misses for everyone. It is what it is and it is clearly something you don't want, as a couple have already helped explain. Honestly, not sure why you're looking for reinforcement as to the reasons you quit. If it didn't appeal in the end, that's fine. We all sometimes end up stepping too far into a game we eventually realize we don't enjoy. The best is really to just move on and find something you can enjoy.

You gave good feedback. Everything can always use adjustments. I'll certainly not defend the ludicrous rng that ties into relics, especially when stacked with grind. RNG on anything can always be nasty, it sucks. And there could be a more efficient system, but rng and grind is how MMOs survive. Pony drops honestly it's not something necessary and all fluff, so I can't throw up my arms and demand better drop chances. Gear that people need to perform better in content is a different story. It does need work. Better would be if raids offered more loot per run to fight the low drops or considering the number of classes in existence for specific gear. But you can always find other outlets for gear. Grinding currencies, or crafting and slotting materias. May not always be the best but it can hold over while you more passively grind gear.
