Farming feels pointless in FF XIV

[Iromi]

I agree with OP.

Hmm I hope they put some horizontal stuff in with SB.

You say farming is pointless. I say "Good." Who would ever want to run the same dungeons/raids over and over and over again? Not me anyway, so if I can skip doing that without really missing anything then that is a very good thing.

Another thread about gear progression. Honestly none of it matters. It's a game. You play it to have fun. If you aren't having fun, don't play. There is literally nothing else that needs to be said.

Does the whining ever get boring to you? Or do you just naturally wake up excited for the day ahead, and comb the vast reaches of the Internet in hopes of finding something new to complain about?

Dunno, but you know more of my complaining than myself

i don't have the feeling that i really need them for anything special to beat the " normal " content because the game is way too easy. Don't get me started on the Savage mode which is not that hard, the hardest part being finding good players

The hardest part isn't finding good players, it's finding a bunch of players who have the patience to clear content that is brutally challenging. You really can't say that Savage mode isn't that hard when you've yet to clear even AS4, and judging from your off and on play style, you don't want a game to be that challenging.

Also, for a lot of people the end-game is glamour, as I'm sure they'll be ready to tell ya, which is why crafting still makes a lot of people rich.

Don't get me started on the way you think i play. You don't know my background as an MMO or solo player and i can tell you that i've always liked some challenge. I tried to have a group of 8 people since i got hooked into the endgame of this game and i've never been able to find a perfect one, the main problem being as you just said that it's really hard to have 8 players available during one whole night.
Since i play this game, i always try to look after new PF so i can eventually find new players to group up with but it is always the same story.

But don't ever tell me again that my " achievments " in game mean anything, they are totally irrelevant about my playstyle.

It's called feedback.

No, dude, don't you see? The world is black and white - you either like everything in XIV and praise it from the mountaintops or you hate it with every fiber of your being.
