This game is turning into even more of a mindless grind....

You could do it in a week or 2 before this patch too...

And yeah there are challenges in this game particularly Ifrit fight at the moment. Very, very, very few people have beat it. Why? because it is challenging content. There is a lot of gear to get, there is a lot of materia to try and obtain. There is the joy of going through the beastman strongholds and the satisfaction of beating an NM and knowing that when you get 1 class to 50 you will have all of those abilities to make the next one even easier to level up. Maybe it's just the people you are playing with that make it a grind. I always enjoy leveling up with the people I do because I am playing a game I like that keeps getting better and playing with my friends who are great to talk to.

EDIT: After 1.19 I have had waaayyyy too much to do in game to be bored. And you can get 1 to 95 in like a week in FFXI so good job on the reference.

I <3 you too :3

That's kinda sad. Ever considered what RP stands for?

That's what action games are for.

Right now solo is fairly difficult in most cases and gives like 10k an hour max.

Right now I'm getting 22k / hr solo on my 34PUG. Pterocs in Coerthas. I chain 3 in 3 minutes for ~1500xp or more and rest for 60 seconds then repeat. And I have to pretty strategic about what skills I use when and missing the mob's ws. jus sayin.

If I had a dollar for every time you have said something makes this game pointless I could retire a happy man. And yet, with as many fixes they have put in this game that makes it more and more pointless to you, you still play and post A LOT. Is there a quota to a level of pointlessness before we stop seeing you or is this just going to continue forever in the same pointless fashion?

LMAO.... winner.

SE is not going to balance it this time. It is about the balance, it is the direction SE go. Any way i quit

Having a lot of things one worked for become less meaningful isn't a pleasant feeling. He's also invested a lot of work into this game and apparently is a fan of Final Fantasy, so it's not that easy to just up and quit. A desire to make the game better compels one to do stuff like play the game, analyze it, and post about it.

Azurymber is perfectly within his rights to say what he feels.
