Time to Quit

[Koros]

Im genuinely curious. As soon as I saw the two biggest things that most people were hoping they'd acknowledge and fix, the feedback fell on deaf ears.

To a lot of people, it seemed like it was the boiling point so Im interested to know.

There is no boiling point.

95% of people who are dissatisfied leave silently. There isn't any pomp and circumstance lmao, just silently fizzling out

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Don't care. I'll quit more likely when real life catches up, or game goes f2p.



People always find something they dislike and complain about.



Like eureka.

Already unsubbed a few weeks ago, must have been right after my sub renewed.

7.0 is the final straw, we either get a game worth its sub cost or i just won't come back, starting to understand how the big wow exodus crowd felt about their game after 9 years of xiv.

sadly 7.0 will still do well, exodus is going to come in 8.0 and 9.0 just like in wow. we're literally just following wow's exact trajectory lmao

If 7.0 doesn't dangle anything that intrigues me then I'm out for good. I'm already getting my MMO fix by hopping between ESO and WoW when time permits. Neither game is perfect, though both attract players who actually want to play a video game as opposed to the growing number of FFXIV players who simply want to log on, attend 'venues' and do little but the same tiresome duties over and over and over again for tomestones.

The pendulum will eventually swing back in the other direction and will hopefully strike a better balance in due time. Furthermore, eventually something genuinely refreshing will enter the market and enjoy being the 'next big thing' in a market in dire need of some healthy competition. It's just a matter of time.

Good bye then

Hey I'ant leaving the game.

I'm gonna be honest with you guys. You may as well just stop wasting your time holding out for 7.0

At this point I severely doubt that the next expansion somehow will answer all of your content prayers. The combat isn't going to change, the questing isn't going to change, outworld content isn't going to change, class design isn't going to change and the game will NOT try to hold your sub hostage via grindable chores.

This is the game. This is FFXIV. The only way 7.0 will mean anything to you guys if somehow they just completely rework the entire structure of the game.

I'm saying this because it's shocking how much I'm seeing people holding out so hard for 7.0 to somehow be vastly different than what we've had so far and I'm not talking about EW.

The reason I’m holding out for 7.0 is for a field content zone, I know that they won’t change (hell I’ve been playing since legacy I know how 14 works)

My interest in the core gameplay loop died in late stormblood but I love field content, I’m basically holding on for one more field content zone, even if we get one I’ll probably drop the game in 8.0, it’s obvious their job design and content decisions revolve around people who don’t actually like playing the game so I know anything good is just a stopgap for me

Curious to know regarding the dissapointment in the relic grinds AND the Mt.Rokkon Savage rewards being absolute donkey.

How many of you are finally giving up this game and quitting and leaving forever? I'm DYING to know your thoughts.

The relic requirements and Mt. Rokkon's rewards are exactly what I thought they would be because SE is known to stick to their pattern and not deviate. To expect otherwise is just asking for disappointment.

After this long, people should know full well what's coming in every patch during an expansion because it always follows the same pattern. Seriously, I'll lay it out for you so you don't set yourself up for disappointment.

6.5: Alliance Raid with ilvl 650 drops, new island sanctuary stuff, more MSQ storyline, new 4-man dungeon, new trial with ilvl 655 weapons from extreme, end of Tataru questline, new unreal trial (my bets are on Nidhogg)
6.55: End of MSQ, end of relic quest with ilvl 665 weapons, end of crafter/gathering relics, bonus trial against Asura that drops something cosmetic, allied tribal quest
6.58: Next expansion prep, removing all raiding restrictions from Endwalker content

Im sorry but how can you? Exploratory content is so lackluster. Its all just FATE grinds and the only actual good pieces of it are the raids, which require a bit more effort on communication. If you want FATE grinds, go do so in any of the other EW and ShB zones, believe me you'd have the same experience.

I really want something different for 7.0 rather than just add in another boring exploratory zone.
