Final Fantasy 14 is starting to lose appeal because...

[Tenku]

everything is repetitive and seems like a chore. I'm sure some will disagree with me, but unless you're in the top 10% of hardcore players/groups, you all feel the same way I do:

It's a chore.

1. Log on
2. Do expert daily to get the 75 esoterics (cap esoterics for the week)
3. Do daily GC turn-ins for crafting
4. Gather mats for step 3
5. Help people with instances
6. Log off

This game seriously needs some changes and fun things to do. We're all insane for logging in and doing the same thing over and over again everyday. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expect different results.

Something needs to be done to make the world more lively too. There are more empty zones than non empty ones.

Seems you have all the old classes at level 50, your crafting classes got further than this.
You haven't yet unlocked any new classes.

Right there I found some things for you to do, mate.

Just from that piece of information about what he leveled alone, I can tell you he couldn't raise those comfortably if he tried. His inventory is totally shot, so those additional classes might as well not even exist where he is concerned.

.......... ._. (I'm sure if he had been interested in unlocking the new classes, he would've done so by now........... why do people keep using this reasoning. Por que? why? ; ; )

Tenku, even as a raider, there's not enough *end game* content worthwile to do. You are not alone on this sentiment.

[Tenku]

Don't get me wrong, I love this game, but it's losing it's appeal and that's not a false statement. Every patch/update is the same thing: new tomestones to cap, new CT, new something instanced.

How about add a 100 floor open dungeon? (Sword Art Online style)

Yes, an open dungeon that's 100 floors and you can bump into anybody on the server while trying to get to the top.

This game is suppose to be an MMO, but instead falls into the trap of turning everything into instances so you feel like you're not even part of the fantasy world.

Yes please. And make the players die in real life too, might make everyone do df more often due to less 'low skilled players'. If you guys suggest something, how about something that is actually worth the dev's time.

I think this is why people don't like suggesting stuff because you come here and say it's worthless.
Don't see you tossing anything into the pot, friend.

Because Sword Art Online sucks. I would much rather prefer to see things from Log Horizon implemented, which they are.

Well I don't live in the database.

You know why? Because we have to take into account a 2006 released console: PS3.

Yes, SE's profits comes from the PS3 too. However, if they do not announce a stop to support it any time soon, more people will feel the game is not evolving. Heck, we can't even have changes to the UI since a PS3 would explode (and they want uniformity for every platform). Look how much time it took them to implement a TP bar. They had to remove stuff to implement it. It's save to confirm the PS3 is at its very limit.

Despite the profits, I do think a sooner drop of PS3 support would have given them more profits in the long run. They can't do much different at the moment because every single implement has to go through the PS3 check, which is close to nothing new they can implement.
