    I actually love MMOs, and I really don't mind grinding for gear - if I find it enjoyable and worthwhile. I played XI for years, still sub now and then, and I think we all know how that game was with grinding. I have a few other MMOs under my belt as well, and currently play Archeage (which is another grind-fest).

    I like to have projects in game, and I love having long term goals for gear or toys, or whatever else suits my fancy. My issue with XIV is that you spend all this time building up your gear sets, and then you're knocked right back down after a new tome is released. It doesn't feel very rewarding. Grinds exist in all MMOs, but XIV (IMO) does not hide it very well, and the grind is not enjoyable for me.
