2) The devs have always said that this is a “stop-and-go” type of game. Yoshida tells us to unsubscribe when we’re bored. He and SE clearly don’t expect this game to hold our attention like World of Warcraft or other MMOs, and that’s fine. That game charges a sub too, and I don’t want to pay two at once. Just do as Yoshida says and sub a couple times a year. It’s a small game and most of it is reading. I like reading, but I read fast, so this game is over quickly for me. That’s just how FFXIV is, just like the other Final Fantasy games. Play it, finish it, and put it down. It’s not a “serious” MMO.
1) 2 hours of cutscene skipping isnt a problem, if people find that tiresome, MMO's obviously arent for them. (p.s. these are the same people that spend 10 hours a day in island sanctuary lmao)

2) its an MMO. Regardless of what they say, the game is advertised and marketed as an MMO. There are expectations with that title.
