A Word of Thanks to the FFXIV Development Team

I've been playing since release (and alpha/beta ofc blah blah) and I find the game absolutely boring to death. I barely play now, just login to break clusters for ls members since I'm 50.

Me and my friend will sometimes login and think "Okay what can we do?" and theres nothing, there is absolute no answer to that question that doesnt end up being "Grind?" You cant have friends in class quests, you can barely have a friend in the story (like the last 2 missions let you lol) and I've finished all that. Class quests are boring and quite useless due to what they let you do (buy higher tier guildskills which are thus even more useless). And then theres the god-utter-awful mini-quest which people defend but its a copy/pasted system so theres no excuse.

So I ask people playing, What do you do when you login? For someone new who hasnt had the same routine for 6 months you can say things are nice, but you also cant really speak for the game because you're still in your prime. Its like when you first learn to drive and get a car and you're super excited and want to go on road trips its all thrilling, then after a while you begin to shout at other drivers, rage when you hit a traffic light and wonder why you're paying for it, if only cars were free to use like this game...

You will eventually begin to eat your own arm with this game due to absolute nothing to do later on. Even at the low levels what is there to do? Quest = Killing, Grind = Killing, Guildleves = Killing, and Killing is as boring as watching paint dry.

And what MMO out there doesn't have this same Kill, Rinse, Repeat format? And before you yell yes I know the Guildleves are pretty much generic. The Side-quests are pretty much easy Guildleves that give no EXP/SP but instead a craftable reward. And there is no end-game content. Yet still you log into a MMO to do what? Quest = Killing, Grind to Level = Killing, Dungeon / Raid / End-Game Content = Killing, Gathering Mats for crafting = Mind Numbing Harvesting and sometimes Killing.
