Take a break for a few weeks. Do anything long enough and it starts to feel like a chore.

I felt like this before Heavensward and took some time off. It really helped. Also, helping new people get started is something I find really fun. I'd be bored to death if I didn't have my friends and my fc "kids" to take care of.
Seriously. I love a good plate of fajita nachos from my local Mexican eatery, but if I had to eat it every day, I'd go mad. And also possibly die from spicy squirts.
I feel your pain OP. Plenty of fluffy candy in the game, but no meat... Sad thing is they have a decent stopgap fix readily available for this issue, but they refuse to use it. Just uncap tomestones (or cap per job) and make lockouts seperate per job. As it stands you can't even play alts as they will always be behind and cannot participate in what content we have to play them in.
but noooooo... Master Yoshi will never let us actually think and decide for ourselves if we want to do that or not...
I get what your sayin tho I honestly feel like if you didnt play every job in the game I could totally see how people would get bored. I feel like the beginning of an expansion is the most boring time in the game , as I was gearin jobs for storm blood and even took a whole month to do the sb msq . Many people where doing the same gettin their 270 gear right up to sb, and within a week they where grinding the new 310 stuff. But I also blame this on 75 percent of the game being dead, with unsync now open to hw. But Ill never leave the game because I truely love my charcter more so than any other game Ive played, but if it wasnt for that , Id prob have a different outlook
Take a break, really.
This is a game, and by definition not something you should force yourself to do.
The only way to play a game wrong is by not having fun with it.
Try new games/hobbies/simply stop for a month or two and then come back if you feel like it - this is not a job or something you are paid to do (rather it is the opposite), so don't see it as an obligation :P
Not sure this game with all the changes is getting boring fast. Items that said was going to add won't be for months still once finish the story gets boring fast. Yoshi needs to retire and pass the torch to new person that knows what gamers want and listens to them on forums.
All theme parks have a busy period and then you will mostly play a few hours per week and that's it. IMO, play less and be sure to play with friends.
unsub for a bit, maybe they will change things where it is not a reskin, different level cap since 2.0 if people do that often enough.
Only play because of friends, if it was not for that i be gone long ago.
0 quality HQ is possible
If you aren't enjoying yourself when you log in, take a break. I play every single night but I enjoy every second of it. If it's not something I enjoy, I just don't do it. If there was nothing in the game I enjoyed, I would stop playing.
I second the idea of trying something different if you don't want to take a break. Are there parts of the game you haven't tackled yet? Try them out. Ignore your dailies for a day. They'll still be there if you want to do them later or another day. If there isn't anything new you want to try, then don't force yourself to play. You'll just burn out.
