    Ever feel like you have to much stuff to do?

    Raiding
    Daily Roulette
    Myth & Soldiery Grinding (if removed from The Hunt)
    The Hunt
    Atma Grind
    Animus Grind
    Novus Grind
    Beastman Tribe Quest
    Crafting
    Gathering
    Spiritbonding
    Challenge Log
    Sightseeing Log
    Glamour Grinding
    Leveling Alternative Classes

    Sometimes I feel like I have way to much stuff to do and not enough time to do it. How does everyone else feel about this? I feel it would be much better if I could actually do some of these at the same time but normally you can't because of special requirements or it's just incredibly time consuming.

    Not really. Because the rewards from all of the above will be obsolete next patch.

    With that logic, you won't do anything next patch either because the patch after that will make the 2.4 stuff obsolete as well.
    In short terms, you never actually play the game "because it will be obsolete next patch".

    By this logic we should NEVER EVER bother playing any MMO because anything you do will become "obsolete" at some point.

    That's some pretty flawed logic. If I could, I'd give you the "worse logic" award on this forum. What's the point of even playing an MMO, like some have said, if you have an attitude like that? Why do any of it? An MMO is always about progression - about getting that new body armour, or new weapon from the next big update. By your logic, none of that is worth it.

    You are right a mmo should always have new things to get from the next update.

    This issue is when you are in a cycle.

    Work to get BIS gear => Update (All gear is worthless) => Work to get BIs gear => Update (all gear is worthless) => Work to get BIS gear => Update (All gear is worthless) => Repeat

    This is one reason so many people are quitting the game. The life cycle of gear and content is lower then any other AAA mmo out there. Yes SE is releasing patches fast and they are solid patches for the most part... but they are also negating everything just as fast which is really bad.

    People want new rewards. But they also do not want other things they worked on to be worthless so fast. In my opinion all gear should last at the min. 1.5-2 yrs. Of course the issue is the game has ultra simplified stats, gear handouts in everything, and no time sinks outside relic quest.

    Game needs horizontal growth badly. This vertical only progression is horrible.

    It's a start having lots to do, the challenge is giving all of them a decent reward.

    Yes, it sure feels that way sometimes.

    I find only doing one of those things the few hours I play a day helps progression with them all. For example I only gather and craft on sundays due to none of my fc mates being on during that day.

    I 'always' run into this problem.

    Work on master gearing my gatherer? My crafter? SB more materia for the meldings? Finish the gathering achievements? The crafting? Run around grabbing unspoiled nodes? Try and further deck out my FC room?
    Or switch focus to combat? Run dungeons for tomes? ST for weekly drop? Finally bother with EX's? Continue Animus book? Hit the daily marks? See if elite marks aren't terrible at the moment?
    Run FATE's/dungeons to level lower classes? Try and better gear my other 50's?
    Maybe work on desynth? Gather mats to raise the main, or work on second/third desynths? Spam for demi's, or push to raise skill with 1stars?

    And I haven't even bothered to 'start' the sightseeing log yet, was waiting for the groups of people to stop standing around the target locations. Kinda kills the mystery XD.
    Thankfully the challenge log just kind of happens alongside everything else, but still...

    Not enough time in the day -_-

    I think its amazing how much stuff there is I took 3 months out and coming back to ex primals, new coil, DOH/DOL gear, beast tribes and so much more I do on a daily basis.

    Remember you play this game to have fun not as a job or obligation to complete A B and C before D E and F arrive.
