I still don't get the obsession with taking a break..

I do not need a break from my other hobbies, and I do not do them 24-7, nor do I do FFXIV 24-7...soo why should I have to "take a break" from something I barely play because there is nothing left for me to do and the content is boring and there is 0 FC content, little social interaction, no open world content for FC/groups STILL...3 years later..

It is mind boggling, this response. I work on my cosplay costumes about as much as I play XIV, I have never once said "OH I need to take a break from costumes for a few months!!" why would I? Making costumes doesn't get boring. I never "took a break" from XI as I said earlier either. I would play it as I pleased and never ever had a dull or boring moment.

XIV gets boring because the same meta being used since day one of 2.0. Tomes, tomes, lockouts..and more lockouts. The relic is always the same quest with a slight spin, its always use tomestones to get said random item. It...is...boring. Its like..imagine with my costuming hobby, making the same costume over and over and over..just slightly different size. Then yeah, that is when it becomes WORK and boring. With my costumes I make a different one each time and it is fun, or I can go back and forth and work on different ones at the same time. That is how I felt with XI.

There was so much to do in XI that when I stopped working on one thing I could work on something else. This game doesn't allow that because it all comes down to lock outs and tomes. So no, taking a break won't solve anything. Like I said..most people who take breaks from seeing it myself..they don't come back. And before the whole "go play ffxi if you like it so much" the XI I played is long gone..since 2010 at least. ~_~
