How much do FRIENDS make a difference with you?

[Dzian]

I think friends can make a big difference with MMOs in general, but XIV has turned into the solo player experience for me as just about everyone I talked to frequently has quit. I have no FC either. I have very little attachment to this game outside of the addiction factor (which is waning) ATM.

This. My ever shrinking circle if friends is generally speaking The Only reason I log in. Used to be about 50 people in 1.2. Down to maybe 10 now.
