    Yoshi himself encourages players to take breaks between patches.
    Maybe pick up a new game, 16 was just released.

    Burn out is natural. Don't force yourself if you're not having fun anymore. 14 doesn't want you to be around all the time. They said so themselves.

    A burn out would imply i'm tired of the things i'm doing but there's nothing to do in the first place. I WANT to do stuff but there's nothing of substance.

    What nonsense. He says this but puts in systems that encourage you to stay subbed, like weekly lockouts and housing demo timers (alongside a perpetual housing crisis)

    If this is the case why do we have to stay subbed to keep our house?
    Seems like a big fat lie to me.
    We won't provide enough content to keep you playing, but you better still give us your money if you dont want to play housing russian roulette again

    This argument always goes the same way.

    "This game has no content!"

    "What about [long list of content]?"

    "I don't like that so it doesn't count!"

    Choosing not to do the content available is not the same thing as there being no content. You're basically whining that the game isn't designed specifically for you.

    What i don't get ist this. Why do you still pay a sub then? Unsub and resub when you think therre's enough content again.

    Probably doesn't want to lose their house. If you're gone 45 days, the home gets demolished. This is called "auto demolition," and it's in the game to create space in limited wards for new people to purchase homes instead.
    It'll be a better day for everyone when island sanctuary implements full blown instanced housing, allowing for the complete non-issue of demolition timers. Then people who are burnt out on the game can actually unsub and leave without feeling like they're losing things they worked hard to create, and all the people still somehow enjoying the game won't have to listen to their rants. It's a win/win! Of course, if this happened then Square would probably lose thousands of subscriptions overnight, and we can't have that. I mean, how will the Forespoken sequel be financed if bored players aren't reluctantly clinging to artificially scarce housing in a game that offers a slower content cycle than f2p games with skeleton crews? Gotta keep them hooked with something.

A cool shiny sword but nothing to use it on that i bought with an already capped currency, (Not that it's worth using as the tome weapon is better anyways) and a new dungeon that i completed in 10 minutes. That's the patch.

    This game is lacking in character progression and meaningful content besides savage and weekly tomes. There's just so little of substance to do on the side besides social interactions - which i don't think warrants a monthly subscription as i can do this for free on other platforms. I *want* to have stuff to dig my teeth into - a reason to log back in for inbetween raid nights. But there's just nothing to do. Frankly, i'm starting to consider going back to WoW..
    I don't mean this in a condescending way, but it's not really my (or anyone else outside of SE) job to try and "sell" the game to you. If you don't feel it's worth your sub, take a break and absolutely DO try other games. IF you find that break getting longer and longer...consider unsubbing.

    Rather, I'd say it's unhealthy to expect this game to provide your entire gaming wants/needs. You should be checking out WoW/Diablo/Whatever might seem appealing.


    I'm 50/50, but leaning towards playing 7.0 when it releases, and unsub about a month or two into it. Right before 8.0 releases I'll resub and do all the 7.x content.

    In the meantime, I've been away from Guildwars for a while! They're releasing a new expansion pack, and I haven't done the LAST expansion they released! Gonna jump on that when they offer a big discount.
    I'm also looking forward to Starfield...but I'll probably wait like 6 months into its release...after all it's guaranteed to be a Bethesda-Bug-Ridden mess.

    Back in my days we spent hours just to reach a higher score on flipper doing the same stuff over and over again while we avoided premature death.

    Our dopamine receptors are fried, there is plenty of stuff to do.

    Then play go play WoW? You can play more than one game you know. I quite like the fact this game isn't demanding me to log in every single day and overwhelming me with content because it allows me to *gasp* PLAY OTHER GAMES.
