Please refer to the very first part of my post:It was content in the fact that it was and is an alternative to leveling classes. It also rewarded Gear that was usable in dungeons trials and extremes. May not of been the best gear but it was still good for casual players that dont run savage.
But by your logic ultimates Savage extremes alliance raids and dungeons aren't content As well as crafting and gathering.. because there all repeating content. You do the same thing everytime and repeat them til you get what you want.
So can you give me a definition of what content is that involves 0 grind in FF14? I'll be waiting
Progging fights definitely is content aswell but you're not far off. Every piece of content has an amount of time it can stay interesting for on its own. Delubrum was alright for the first couple of runs. But the 30th run of it definitely wasnt content anymore. By then it has just outstayed its welcome. At that point everyone was just doing it for the reward. This is why I am very glad about recent ex trials all giving 2 totems each compared to only 1. The 51st clear is in no way more interesting than the 50th.
I don't consider progging fights as content. Dying over and over again is not content. Only the clear is content. And only once /s
Seriously I hate progging raids. And I love grinding. Different tastes are different tastes.
It’s a good thing not to answer your enemies. I scarcely ever do. Perhaps Emily is more like me than I am like myself. Perhaps she would rather not answer her friends, even. She keeps it all in her heart.
Island Sanctuary, lot to do ?I quite literally just started Island Sanctuary two weeks ago, and still not rank 12. I don't say that because there is so much content that I could not get around to it. I say that because there is no effin way anyone can get to rank 12 in a week. I guess, technically you could but man that would be an extremely tedious process that would drive most insane.
More examples: Gearing up to BiS. Maxing out beast tribes. Max out a custom deliveries NPC. Growing certain crops such as Thav onions or Jute. Getting to seven figure gil. Obtain all items from Faux Hollows. Obtain all TT cards. Close all fishing holes.
Some content has no finish line such as: Wonderous Tales. Glamour chasing. Playing in a performance band. Role Play. Helping other players clear difficult duties. Soloing duties.
Your exaggerations aside, getting bored easily and not being able to find replay value with the given content is not the same as lack of content.
Everything in there even at low levels is timegated.
Unless you mean farming nodes nonstop is content, but what you said here don’t align with that possibility.
I’m genuinely confused here.
Lmao did she really say "getting to seven figure gil", or "growing certain crops such as thav onions or jute"???
growing thavnairian onions is literally 5 minutes of actual activity??? LOL
and you literally get to seven figure gil by just doing the msq? LOL????
i guess if you do something for 1 second every day over 50 years that's actually 50 years of content wow
@Gemina
That's literally on you friendo, because you play as slow as a snail on purpose to slow consumption doesnt mean the content is challenging, not everyone plays 2 minutes a week.I quite literally just started Island Sanctuary two weeks ago, and still not rank 12.
Or just... yknow, play the game for more than 5 minutes ?I say that because there is no effin way anyone can get to rank 12 in a week. I guess, technically you could but man that would be an extremely tedious process that would drive most insane.
Literally the only proper content in what you mentioned is gearing up (which is timegated) and beast tribes (which is also timegated), the rest has nothing to do with actual proper content.Gearing up to BiS. Maxing out beast tribes. Max out a custom deliveries NPC. Growing certain crops such as Thav onions or Jute. Getting to seven figure gil. Obtain all items from Faux Hollows. Obtain all TT cards.

Yeah great "content" there budSome content has no finish line such as: Wonderous Tales. Glamour chasing. Playing in a performance band. Role Play. Helping other players clear difficult duties. Soloing duties.
Actually it is the same, you just play as slow as possible, actually worse than snail pace just so you dont run out of content and you can ramble about how the content in this game is fineYour exaggerations aside, getting bored easily and not being able to find replay value with the given content is not the same as lack of content.
"Yeah Square Enix, please dont make long lasting content, that's so boring, I'd rather sit my behind in Limsa all day and do absolutely nothing because there is no content" - YouThis. We are getting content. It's just content that you don't have to mindlessly grind for months; that is what I would truly call a lazy design.
The only way to make content last for a loooong time is to make it grindy and repetitive, and I'm sorry but that's boring as hell.

Says the person who clearly enjoys sitting around their house doing nothing while paying SE their hard earned dollars just for that experience. It must be great living in that glass house of yours@Gemina

Thank you, it is actually great to sit in my house, decorate, to go with my friends to venues, to do a bit of content on my NA char amongst a few other things, I am glad you approve, and I will gladly give my money to have that experience, doesnt mean the game cant be improved, nice try at a "gotcha" though, even though it failed
