This game is on a terrible state right now.

Oh, trust me. They're moderating. They're just selective on what to keep and what to remove.

Usually things that need to remain hush-hush are removed. What they are? You won't know until you see posts suddenly disappear without notice.

Well to be fair I've seen that happen too but they used to be a lot more proactive moderating and community managers used to interact with the community here, now it's like a wasteland over here.

I'll chime in I guess. It's pretty boring and uninteresting. There's a lot of 'legacy' stuff to do, but leaning too hard on it is not going to keep things fresh. I want to believe that it's because FF16 is chewing up all the resources, but if they repeat the EW pattern next expac I think a lot of players are going to be driven away.

It's ... just... soo ... boring.

Oh, shoot. My post may have sounded haughty. If so, I apologize. Tone can be hard to read through text.

I've heard how it has gotten worse over the years. Apparently they are outsourcing mods for their English forums?

I'm just doing what the director tells me to play other shit rather than force myself to do stuff in this game. Granted since I play alts, I always have some progression to do in terms of content but lately I've been playing other MMOs and games.

And yes, Im also a house owner and I still pay for the sub even on break because Im more likely to still want to log in to other stuff or hang with friends besides having to reset the demo timer.

Oh, you're totally fine <3 That's what I've heard too that they're outsourcing them, hope they're not paying a lot for that service, not getting a lot of bang for that buck...

Thank you! I wanted to make sure.

Oh, definitely. I've seen volunteer mods on other forums be waaaay more engaging than this. No offense, mods.

I mean, the 1 post removal per year is still better than the Materia GM's.

Hilarious. Great stuff. It's been awhile since I have read something of this level (or posted) on here. Really made my day yesterday, I will say that. I haven't even been visiting the forums really until I was linked some of this.

Anyway, to stay on-topic, this has probably been the expansion that has pushed me the furthest away from the game. I haven't played for months, and when I was "playing" I was afking in the aetheryte plaza. Deep Dungeon I will eventually do, probably, maybe, but just to level alt classes. Prior to even playing the game months ago, I was also largely inactive for months. I am sorry, but there just isn't anything to really do (please don't say achievements).

As far as story is concerned, it doesn't matter to me as much as others, so I don't really get too passionate about the outcome, although I have made my opinions clear in the past, that I felt Endwalker's was rushed, and so on. Zenos is the only thing that saved the finale for me.

Hopefully next patch has some good glams or something good (probably not).

Yeah that last fight with Xenos was really fun and I wish there was a way to just reply that fight without having to do a large chapter to get to it.

Felt like Ocelot and Snake slugging it out on top of that sub.

I think Zodiark got it bad. Like...they built him up and it was a simple trial. That really urked me.
