Players are leaving?

[Pyretta_Blaze]

I do detest the 8 man groups sometimes. It feels like if I am the 9th person to log into an LS I am out of luck for that day. Some LS will swap people in and out but not all...

One of my current LS's seems to aim to have 6-7 active members likely to be on at a time and the just pull an additional person out of one of our other LS's.

Yoshi or a rep did say Alliance type content was coming in the future

I have noticed a drop off in players and it makes it hard to do anything outside of exping. Everything revolves around 8 player content and people have their 8 man groups set in place which they don't invite other people. The game seems very clickly like FFXI was people will rarly do anything outside their group they already have. Which makes it so people who do not have this kind of group of players not able to do anything.

People are always shouting for Ifrit, Darkhold, and occasionally one of the newer raids on Durandal.

My friends are all leaving of the game, claiming that it is very difficult to get things
only closed groups are the best events.
Power level and boots created bad players.
This is happening with friends you too?

Nope.

Power leveling doesn't create bad players. Bad players create themselves by being bad.

The amount of time it took you to level up a job has basically zero bearing on player skill.

What kind of difficulty are they having? Can they kill Ifrit? Or they killed it 938750548 times and haven't gotten a drop? If its second one then tell them its not difficult its just they have such bad luck.

That certainly wouldn't motivate me to come back.

If anything I've noticed a few more people come back, not a whole lot but certainly enough to be noticeable.

players will always come and go, this is honestly nothing new

its not like theres a mass exodus, if anything more have been joining then quitting for a while now
