    Keep your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed

    That's the state of my give a d@mn right now with FFXIV and CBU3. I don't think they can "WOW" me any more.

    They have their schedules, and their trimmed down content. They have their cash cow in maintenance mode. It doesn't matter what myself or anyone says, they don't listen to feedback anymore.

    It's just depressing at this point, the game that came back from the ashes has become stale and I hoped it would never reach that point but here we are.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    You sound like you don't know what "maintenance mode" means.

    If you find it depressing, do us all a favor, keep your negativity to yourself and play another game. You're not forced to play this game <3

    The rest of us are still happy with the game and not at all disappointed

    If you are happy with mediocre content, easy brain dead jobs, end game content with "meh" rewards, Island sanctuary that is Diadem 3.0? Then I guess you don't like challenges and love boring content

    The challenges are there, but they decided to not doing it because of "not my stuff" and "what for?" and "boring". For example, "The Accursed" title, "Wings of Fire" title, Big Fishes, and Pteranodon mount.

    I love the content. It's not mediocre it's pretty cool. Sorry for you and yours that don't care for it but then again for a couple dozen of you on this forum that's par for the course you're never happy with anything.

    which isn't true at all. Want I want are jobs that have identity and skill to them not some Neanderthal brain dead setup. I want content that they release that ACTUALLY have some good rewards not something like the current criterion and thinking materia s the best reward. Island sanctuary isn't even a sanctuary it's a sweat shop of gathering mats and building it basically Diadem in a island setting. How about better gear progression instead of a 4 month grind of gearing up one class? The devs can take a page from Diablo 4 and make Ninja like their Rogue. Using poison skills, shadow skills not some Naruto wannabe. Now you say you love the content but people who have been white knighting and defending it have not given any defense on why the content is great. No one names one reason how the current content has been great at all despite people pointing out the flaws time and time again yet falls on deaf ears

    I like Naruto, and rank Madara among the top five villains of all time in any format and genre. You know who else likes Naruto? Literally effin everyone. It has a much bigger fanbase than Diablo, that is for damn sure.

    And what reason do the defenders need to give other than they enjoy their time online? That consumes a lot less energy than working a real job and using that money to pay a subscription for a game you can list off things for days you hate about it. Besides, when we mention what we do enjoy, all you do is say something condescending to take a dump on it.

    Here, I will give you an example:
    I enjoy healing in this game because the simple offensive kit allows me to focus more on keeping everyone alive while doing the game's mechanics.

    Go ahead.... Go ahead and tell me now that I enjoy boring, mediocre gameplay where I get to just smash one button and whatever other hyperbolic nonsense that doesn't even come close to what I experience in the game. Go on. Tell me. Tell me all about the great days of Stormblood. Swim in your nostalgia while continuing to perplex my mind on why exactly you are still subbed to the game.

    You see, it's one thing to have constructive criticism towards the game's flaws, which no game is without. It's another to have so much vitriol that you can't mention anything you enjoy outside of owning a virtual house or a glorified chatroom. But it is something else entirely when you spew hatred towards those who do enjoy the game all because they don't sit in a cesspool with you and your kin, in an absolutely hateful, negative, and toxic atmosphere devoid of any color.

    I feel like "Maintenance Mode" is becoming the Next Meme.....another Buzzword thrown around and not even used properly....
    But just so some idiot doesn't attack me for "Silencing Criticism" Hopefully 7.0 could be better for ya. I mean that, even if idiots meme on me for saying that.

    Well people do love their buzzwords, as meaningless and inappropriate they may be.
