Im not ready for Endwalker

[SturmChurro]

I've needed to catch up on things for several years in this game. I've been meaning to level up a couple crafters for example, I need to organize my inventories, etc... I don't even have my blue mage leveled. I just see it as things I can get to one day; stuff to potentially do when done or tired of current content. I'd say it's usually best to get through the story, and be caught up however (gear wise, roulettes, etc.), but there is no real rush on anything else really, well maybe savage if someone is into that kind of thing.

id like to suggest not rush, or feel bad for not having done everything in this game, ready for endwalker, cause this game have so many things to complete... what is to be truly "ready" in this game??
play the game at your own pace, you will be in endwalker soon or later, and there always be new players starting game from 0 everyday, and will be comparing their progress with yours too. And wen you reach endgame, and notice that what endgame have its not enough for you, a new player will come to you and say: "oh no, I'm so late for X expansion, I'm not in endgame..." just tell them the fun of this game its not exclusively in endgame, its about they journey! Have fun!

nobody is late for anything, its just your shiny moment is different from others.

The less you worry about reaching the tippy-top end of MSQ so that you can be there Day 1 of Endwalker playing with "everyone" else - let's face it, the feeling of having caught up and excitedly rushing about in the new content with more people than there will be in the rest is unique - the better the journey will be. I feel you. I am in Stormblood as well, but every few days I fall back and do something new. I check out my many alternate jobs and bring them to 60. I prepare my GC squadrons for running Heavensward content for DD jobs I'd rather not want to sit in queue for. I checked out the Gold Saucer very recently and love it. I've brought my partner into the game and cannot wait for when he reaches the end of ARR so that I can show him things like POTD and other jobs that he scoffs at.

There's so much that, while it won't disappear, is tempting to go to for a change of pace. Whenever I start to feel like the MSQ is terrible... I take a break from it, and come back to find it's not that bad TBH.

~2 months is a while, trust me. It's not worth ruining your perception of your game and burning out just to be in current ShB sooner. There's no prize for that. Do what you want, do what you feel like, and even stop playing for a bit if needed. The things you want to do matter more than things you "have to"; it's a game, after all! You'll get there.

I was away for the most part during a fair amount of Shadowbringers due to wanting to play other games when they came out. Mostly just logged in daily to set retainers out on ventures and post stuff on the market board which also kept my house active. I pretty much cleared or finished those titles and came back a month or so ago and just have 5 or 6 of the ex trials left (I actually forgot about the ones in Stormblood that were added on updates. I'd farmed the first 2 on launch quite a bit before getting annoyed at lack of mount drops), the final bits of Bozja, and the last chapter of eden left I think content wise. I also have 2 combat jobs not at lvl cap yet.

I still have many alts to level. I'm not ready either orz

I haven't played since Heavensward.
I have a lot of Stormblood unlockables like Omega undone and have hardly begun Shadowbringers MSQ. Plus I skipped a lot of Realm Reborn stuff as well.

Anyone else know this feeling? It'll probably be months before I do Endwalker. I guess I can still swap to Viera.

it is always easy to catch up for the previous expansion stuffs. SE makes them easier to do with nerfs and echo.

I'm not ready for Endwalker either! I still have so many classes I need to level to 80, still have enough time to maybe squeeze in one more relic weapon; maybe the DNC weapon since I like it (the NIN one kind of looks dumb, I got it anyways since it's technically my main class atm). Then I got to gear up some of my alt classes with augmented gear. I want to take a shot at PoTD to get "The Necromancer" title, as well as the mount from there, want to introduce a few more friends to the game, already got one trying it out through the free trial. And I still have mounts to farm and beast tribe reputation to grind!

...Eh, I can always come back to it later though, especially since I'll be hyper focused on EW and doing MSQ when it drops and since I pre-ordered it, I'm gonna have to put aside some time for it in between all my college stuff. After I finish the MSQ for it, I can always go back and do all the side stuff I want to do.

So much to do, so little time. MSQ is the only thing checked off on my to-do list. But the good thing is, if it's a race against time to get stuff done, then the time won't drag by so much until Endwalker.

Nothing to do but wait for early access - Time feels like it moves at the speed of a sloth.

Too many things to do before early access - Time feels like it moves at the speed of light.
