Tired of the Same ol' Formula...

You know something is wrong with your game SOMEWHERE when you see these SAME threads everyday.

Or maybe the problem lies in the community, whom never seems satisfied

I would like to see them introduce harder 4 man content

Or maybe the problem lies in the community

Pharos Sirius in 2.1 was a tragedy. Somewhat challenging 4-man content that was lambasted by the community and subsequently nerfed. You can't have difficult content in FFXIV that's not specifically designed for hardcore players like Savage raids without outcry from casual players.

This is only marginally true. Pharos Sirius was unappealing because there were easier alternatives in the roulette. A couple of the boss fights might as well been primal EX lite because they actively punished the party for DPS'ing too fast. The fact of the matter was, people wanted to take the path of least resistance (understandably) for their dailies.

It has nothing to do with "the community can't handle challenging 4-man content" more than "the dev team shouldn't decide to make 1 out of 3 options, all offering the same rewards, noticeably a bigger hassle than the other 2."

How can SE say they're never satisfied when they've been doing the same thing repeated over and over? They're not satisfied with how things are currently, not "never satisfied" as you put it.

She meant the fellow players who are subscribed to FFXIV; some are not satisfied.

Precisely. I bet that if SE did bring much complicated dungeons, raids, instances, or whatever. to the game, eventually you will see complaints on how difficult they are. Furthermore, hardcore players would constantly yap about how some players are terrible because they don't have the skill like they do to complete the hard content. As of now, there are several players that still need help completing the content that we already have.

Overall, some players outta be grateful for what they got from SE because SE could just say, **** you and not make anymore patches. To make things easier, cancel your subscription if you're so bored, and play something else.

Why would SE give an ultimatum like that? lol This is their business, this is the service they provide, this is what they get paid for. We are supposed to be grateful for a good service at a restaurant when it's actually their job to give you a good service? Wat. Should we be grateful anyone does their job right when it's actually their job to do things right? The point of a game is to bring in the fun, specially when they said that end game is where THE game is at (Yoshi said this himself!). Alright then, bring on the fun! That's all we are asking for. lol

They have been listening to players feed backs on what they want in the game and they try their best to make content that could somewhat meet their expectations. Nope, that's not enough for some people; they still want more. What more can they do? I don't know, you don't know, we don't know.

"If the food taste bad, don't eat it anymore" Not satisfied with the service, cancel it.

I completely understand that. However this is not just some "I want mah butts back", "the aura hurts my eyez!" requests. I believe this is a QoL constructive feedback. I appreciate all their hard work, no one has denied that. We are just providing feedback because we care. If we didn't, we'd just take that very non constructive advice of leaving that some people come up with. If people actually read what our concerns are instead of belittling everyone who dares to not be satisfied with something the company is doing and express it, we wouldn't be at each others' throats.

This is not just some mindless whining, people care, and this long poll that players have taken their time to put their inputs onto shows that they care enough. (I took this survey, too, of course. Took me about an hour because I wrote down a lot of suggestions)

There we go, is this more constructive now?

Btw people, you are free to take this survey. I found it on https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...rent_state_is/
