I've realized....

[EmptyFibers]

With all the whining and moaning I have seen on the forums concerning ATMA, as well as other things, that the world of gamers has taken a downward slope.

It seems no matter what SE (or most companies) does to this game, people bitch, oh wait!!!! I just realized that is what humans do now days, they simply bitch about everything!

Just thought I'd join in and bitch about those bitching

Seriously though, to all those that aren't whining and crying about everything, KUDOS!
Hope you are enjoying FF14 as much as I am, all of it!

This is just society as a whole anymore. I've noticed both in game, and out of game, that the human race is becoming
this "I want it easy, fast, and now" type. Self-entitlement is absolutely out of control. Me me me me me.

It's incredible that when one thing goes wrong, these forums turn into "28 Days Later" level rage.

Yes, it does feel that way sometimes, though most people wouldn't behave half so badly if it was in a real-life situation (as someone succinctly put it, keyboard + person = idiot). Really, haven't any of 'em heard you catch more flies with honey than vinegar? Even when the complaints are valid in some cases, being insulting and having a temper tantrum is hardly going to achieve a positive response.

the actual downward slope is a game developer trying to pass off pre-existing Level Capped FATEs for Lv 50 players as entertaining content.

a sign of a downward slope for gamers is that some of them are actually okay with it.

It's called MMOJRPG. You don't have to be okay with it. You don't even have to grind it if you choose not to, but this is a typical mechanic in these kinds of games. It was only a matter of time before it popped up.

You can wait until other patches come out and gear becomes obsolete if you like; It's going to be funny when they introduce some kind of XI intense content for hardcore endgamers. Might never hear the end of it afterwards.

what other MMO has people grind level capped content? XI had lots of grind but all the level capped stuff was basically one and done. you can kind of farm level capped BCNMs but that wasn't really a grind, the grind was for Seals to pop the fights.

So we expect developers to deliver new and fresh content every 3 months? Hell of a game that would be. I find it funny though, all games follow the current trends and slowly change. Yet, gamers still moan about everything. I get it, stale is stale, and I do find somethings in FF14 I dislike. But you know what, I just pass that stuff by.

Get back to the drawing board. You haven't had an epiphany yet.

^ this, lmao. "Realized" does not equate to epiphany, besides, I am just stating the simple fact that it seems to be a whining forum more than anything else. How many positives do we see on here? Yet, all these folks keep on playing...

Anyhow, back to whining, gotta grind for something in some dungeons

[TeaTimeBear]

A sudden realization doesn't mean an epiphany? Please. You can't always just "pass stuff by" if there are ways to make things better why not improve it?

uh yes, we pay for that and we have been getting it.
