    I recommend achievement hunting!

    Hi im just making this post in hopes it reaches someone, but I've been in a really bad place in xiv since I could never find nothing to do that felt important for me, so I would have very little reasons to log in to do anything... Until I started achievement hunting!

    Achievement hunting does not sound appealing at first but how I looked at it is... its quite literally like 100%ting a game, and I have a history of doing that with every kirby game I play.

    For people like me that find it hard to find reasons to log in or do anything in this game I recommend you start achievement hunting... atleast for me it made the game feel a lot bigger than it did before then... but if its not your thing I totally understand that, I just felt I could point this out to people who want reasons to play the game like me.

    That's some excellent advice, actually. They say "You haven't experienced the full game until you've unlocked everything." I'd also like to recommend something too. I want to recommend RP. There's something great about developing a character to be more than just another cat boy or elf wandering among others. Light RP is loads of fun, and gives an excuse to read up on the lore!

    Achievements don't give enough (or in most cases any) rewards for me to care enough about them to actually chase them.

    The ones that do have rewards are an insane grind for the most part

    This is pretty much my personal take on achievements in FF14 as well. I get that some people just like to see the number go up or see that checkmark pop up when you complete something, but I tend to gravitate more towards rewards that I find compelling (which, of course, means some things I find compelling will get a Big Meh from others). I'd be more inclined to chase achievements in FF14 if there were more rewards for doing so, and the achievement shop has gone completely forgotten for years now.

    I'd also recommend https://xivtodo.com/ - it's not a cheevo tracker in all essence, but more of a "here's what you skipped while blazing through the MSQ" list

    FFXIV - 1.0 classic servers (before the meteor) should happen. I think I want it, and I do.

    I'd like to give that a go, but with the whole "Hurr durr third party programs" debacle going on, i'll play it safe for a while... I like the idea though, don't get me wrong.

    Imagine doing something like that and only getting a title. This game's achievements are a joke

    Doesn't mean it's good. Though I agree XIV is definitely outdated as far as achievement rewards go. I mean, how many 10s of thousands of possible points are there? And they haven't updated the guy where you can spend your points in how long?
