what kept ffxi fresh for players , cant be found here.

this topic is not for making people angry or telling ffxi was better. We always look for good experience with mmo to make our mmo better,
This topic is about how progression is going through in ffxiv. We always know anyone who just dinged max level in any game mean his game just started. I mean the game where player will go through tough/challenging content seeking for greatness and rewards.

To begin with FFXI – (pre-abyess-crap)
Once the player ding level 75, he/she have wide range of things to do like going to level new job , farm pop item for bosses with team and so on. Still there is not much thing called useless to do because everything you will do its make sense. For example, farming rare/ex item that you will use in future for multi-jobs so it will save some money. this things will take the player to do for really long time , even if there is more things came. this stuffs still valuable to the play to do and step he have to pass through to the next one.

So far in FFXIV,
Once the Player ding level 50, he/she have something to do is like complete main scenario quest, and farm some gears ( apparently the gears he looted in the quest was great for couple of days until he start farming what is the current stones is available. and in 2.2 .. he will jump from ilv50 > 90 WAY to quick.) and a lot of content just going to easier way with more time of tying and wipes ( didnt hold its value for long time).
so player will jump in no time to current end game within not time and if he lucky enough he will find group that can do it with him ( or go the paying way) and after that. he will have no more intention to play because he reached to last gate .. while he waiting for yoshida to open it for next patch.

i wish if they give us more things to do .. while not changing a lot about them and let them have the same value for the players

you mean where it take two-three months to cap level on one job than level sub to 37
and gears that we have from sea was still best gear in game when I log back after 3-4years?

It came out four years ago and has about the same amount of content now as it did then. Unless you count each FATE separately I guess.

Do you mean contents in all or just endgame contents people did to make the character better?
For endgame content there was Aurun Vale, Cutters Cry and the relict weapon questline. Everything else people did for fun, because the other contents didn't make your character better.
And now look what content have ARR. i think in ARR is a lot more.

All what ARR still need is contents for fun (faction leves, chocobo caravan) and not for endgame gear/tomes/BiS

If you exclude dailies, primals, story missions, binding coil raids, Crystal Tower, housing, chocobo companions, treasure hunts, new classes/jobs, and about 40 other things, then yah I guess it has the same content it used to. (

I said same amount of content. It's right there in the message you quoted. Learn to read.

They're adding new bosses, harder modes for previous content, nerfing some content to make it accessable for everyone, front lines which will be godly no doubt, new pvp, easier pvp structure for newbies at beginning, more dungeons, more equipment, Gold Saucer, A bunch of side thingies to do for those that like to do housing/gardening things, and they do this stuff every 3 months, sometimes with.5 patches 1.5 months... I fkn love this game. Why do the people that love FF11 so much play here and say this system is bad, why don't you play ff11?

Yeah but that's still all just the same rehashed stuff I see everywhere else with a different skin. The only thing that sounds even vaguely different is Gold Saucer. I mean hell if you have to market hard modes of previous content as new content that should be a warning sign but that's just me.
