This game can seriously do with more FC activities.

[Dzian]

FC's are dead because of Solo play and the duty finder pretty much..

Players were asking for proper free compnay content as far back as early betas maybe even alphas back when htere was the concept of freee companies being able to summon primals..

this is the kind of content that builds bonds between players and strengthens social connections promotes team work etc etc. yet none of it exists because everything has to be able to be done solo via the duty finder.. which kills the community bonds at the expense of a bit of extra convenience.

have often said these are some of big reasons why many players just don't stick around very long and most players barely even bother to socialise because well whats the point,.,.. also leads to why a lot of players can be absoloute jerks (politest term i could think of) because there's no reason to be anything else. who cares who you offend or upset when you'll a never see them again and b if you do see them again they'll most likely never remember you..

this game is designed to heavily discourage social interaction on every single level. right down tho the msq. cant proceed because your in a party.... you must be antisocial and play solo to continue..

and this is why a lot of players quit because there's no social connections.

even people who say they have huge free companies of like a hundred players and are super close knit.. okkkkk so without looking atthe chat window or memeber list how many can you name........ its like facebook where people have over a thousand friends but can barely name 10 of them without looking... because theres no real connections there.

and thats been connected to record high levels of depression and suicide because all these super popular people with hundreds and thousands of friends are always sad and lonely... meaningless social connections..
