I've been bored quite a bit since I finished the rock-and-log grind for my DoL gear. I'm now slowly building up enough gil and materia to max out all my DoH so I can get the rest of the gear (already have all Master recipe books). The process is not what I'd call fun at all. As far as the main story and end-game are concerned, I stopped when I got to CM.

I do want to clarify that my boredom has nothing to do with game design. Instead, it has everything to do with human design. There is plenty to do, but I just don't feel like doing any of it. That is on me, which is why I'm not complaining. I'm pretty sure this is the primary issue for most of the "bored" players. What I'm not sure of is why they choose to complain, instead of just accepting the truth and dealing with it.

Maybe it's just another flaw in human design.....
