How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

erm, am i the only one who remembers that Yoshi-P explicitly told the community to take breaks from the game to avoid burnout? They have never built the game around the idea of *always* having something to do. they actively encourage players to play other games between patches

They should remove the sub then and make the game buy to play. There is no real purpose in it. It would be more consumer friendly.

sure, if you want Square Enix to add MTX into the game itself as the primary source of income, instead of just having a cash shop that has no connection to the game itself and a subscription based service.

It's almost like you've never seen how bad MTX is in MMOs that are buy to play.

Don't like it don't buy it.

i hope you understand the irony when i tell you the same thing.

If you don't like having to buy a sub, then don't. go play something else and quit trying to ruin the game for everyone else.

Exactly how is anyone trying to ruin the game? Just because some people are satisfied with no lasting content, no quality content, little to no rewards to work towards, etc. in the game? There is nothing there to ruin in the first place, since nothing is being released.

Nothing to work towards...right.

we have plenty of content. they just don't make content that forces you to participate for the entire 4 months between patches. so sorry that, that doesn't adhere to your standards of what an MMO should do, but the majority of players are fine with it.

Clearly the standards for an MMO, to many in the FFXIV community, is nothing.

The majority of Hrothgar players is NOT okay with the new hairstyles and considers the ability to only be able to change to the hairstyle that shares our face low-effort and the bare minimum. It's clear that you yourself are alright with it, but just like how you're accusing others of not being fine with the game, you yourself are among the minority that's alright with what we got. You're the one who chooses to settle for less.
