Yeah. I just hate when people act positively, don't you?

Sucking up is usually seen as negative (NOT saying anyone who posts positive is sucking up, FYI, just a very small handful), people do it to me quite often..and I ignore them. Giving a sincere compliment or words of encouragement is one thing, but swearing that someone can do no harm or wrong and is perfect and then mocking those who do not agree with them (as someone did to me in this very thread) is just as toxic as bullying, IMHO.

Oh and then in turn bashes WoW devs passive aggressively. ^^; (again not you)

We all knew that already, thanks. I understand that for some people it's impossible to believe that some other people ACTUALLY LIKE the game they PAY A MONTHLY FEE to pay. We aren't ALL masochists. Not everybody likes Shades of Grey, I tend to prefer full Technicolor. Amazing, isn't it? :P

And there are people that love this game, yet dislike the direction it's going. There's so much more this game could become and could have been with the expansion release. Some people want to make it worth their money so they speak out, which is something yoshida actually embraces.

My only concern about this is that when one day we will have 4.0, people might think twice on buying the expansion on day one because they don't want to feel the same "starvation" that they feel now. And that's not a good thing at all.

I'm glad they got their vacation, nobody should work with stress over their shoulder, but they will have a lot of struggle to recoup the loss of "faith" for those who, like me in this case, are awaiting for more than simply 2 dungeons and a easy raid to pass the time. Sure, a lot of people will still buy their expansion on day one but a lot will prefer to wait the first or second patch before even jumping on it.

And who is going to lose in this battle? Only Square Enix, with a big chunk of their players preferring to wait big content patches instead of faithfull waiting with a sub.

Best of luck, because you'll need it from now on.

I have yet to touch Savage. I've been so busy with leveling up all my jobs (6 jobs so far at 60 and I just got DRK to level 59). All jobs were lvl 50 before HW but now I have to get them all to 60. There is a lot of lore and secretes within those job quests. I just don't understand why a lot of players won't take the time to enjoy them all. There are very few MMO's out there that allow you to try all the jobs especially on one character. Take the time to level them all up and enjoy the story.

JRPG's are full of lore and hidden treasures so get in there and leave no stone unturned. Get all your jobs to 60 and enjoy the mysteries and all the hidden treasures of Eorzea.

Because people don't want to. As simple as that. Especially when others don't have the same mind set as you. Some people only like a specific type and class they want to play. This includes crafts and gathering. You can't expect everyone to want to jump on every single job. If someone doesn't like to heal, why would they spend so much time to lvl a healer? Or tank, or dps... Just cause it's there doesn't mean people have to do it...

But then they can't rightly complain their isn't any content available. The game is designed with diversifying in mind. People who only wish to level a few classes have to accept their preference is not what FFXIV will cater towards, and therefore, they may feel there isn't enough content. Put simply, the game cannot possibly appease everyone. So far, one of the primary selling features is being able to level multiple classes with relative ease. They have little reason not to focus on that.

One can absolutely offer a suggestion to the devs (as they've told us in live letters, please post suggestions on the forums) that the game feels lacking in pve and other areas so they can improve it if needs be.

And the devs prefer complaints anyway, see said image:



So, to whoever it was saying "U ONLY COMPLAIN ABOUT GAEM" to me in this thread, even the devs encourage it, "the silent leave first" and it's true, my friends don't care to post, and unsub quietly.


Anyway, they (the devs) said so themselves that they are dropping a dungeon per patch to add in new and never before seen content due to them being aware that certain areas are lacking and that is great that they realized that and are attempting to address the issue. Complaining is pointless yes, but offering suggestions which they ask us to can be very helpful. I look forward to the November patch, we will finally get more original content!!

Suggestions, sure. But chances are people who only focus on a limited number of classes will never feel there's enough content on the basis they are ignoring a large portion of it. Of course, there is nothing wrong with them doing so, it just means they aren't the audience FFXIV tends to cater to.
