what is it that makes everyone in FFXIV hate Abbyssea?
i heard it made everything excessively easy, but in which way? i dont get it. is jeuno and whitegate really empty?
To add to what Antanias stated. Aby rendered all other content in the game, from dyna to salvage to assault and beyond an utter joke. Esp since they removed lvl caps. CoP with no lvl cap? Come on. They then 'revamped' dyna and now nyzul and so on but in the process made them a joke as well. All gear we fought so hard for, for yrs was renderred useless compared to pieces of gear you could obtain in a matter of hrs. So all players really have to do now is endless magians trials for gear they have no use for. They did add some new content such as Void Walkers but that turned out to be a disaster. ffxi still has tons of content but its mostly soloable, has 0 challange and can be completed with little to no skill in minutes. Its basically a game for hack and slashers who wanna swing a big sword they didnt earn.
