I need the visual evidence for this, that would explain so much lmao

oh it's actually 4 but still really bad lmao

Because I play alt characters that I've become so attached to so I have quadruple of the progression to do

As someone who currently has 4 alts. It's because people enjoy playing different characters without resorting to fantasia addiction. There are gameplay reasons sure like getting past weekly tome cap for gearing alt jobs but most people I know have alts for rp

Also the fact that me being a huge nerd of this game, went through an alt going through expansion's content patch by patch by using this handy wiki that nicely lists what got added https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Game_release in each release

So GaiusDrakon is technically wrong here...I HAVE played the game patch through patch, even with the minor QoL changes to certain pieces of content. His argument is invalid.

I have 2 endgame alts not counting my main guy who has ever job including crafters/gatherers. With a 3rd alt on her way (doing the ARR portion atm)

So the guy actually creates his own "content" because the game's content is an absolute bore, by doing 4x the story that takes 10 years to do and what comes after, and then refuses for us to get more content ?

No wonder he doesnt want content, bro literally creates his own content by repeating the same thing over and over again

Mans playing XIV like its a single player title.

If and when players have to create their own content to keep playing a game (Take runescape for example, the first Ironmen were people so bored with the game they had to set themselves rules to play to make it fun again), you know there are major issues.
The developers can do what Jagex did and listen to the playerbase that NEED more content to stay committed to the franchise, or can pull a Blizzard Entertainment and blame game failures on the community.

Its weirdly funny how relevant this image is today, from the CBU3 team themselves almost 10 years ago.

Honestly there should be multiple ways to get the relics for both casual and grind players. I think bozja was kind of the right track with the initial grind to unlock the steps but then the drastic level gates, the time gates of cll, the crazy farming for lost ability pots and once done there is no incentive to go back again which ruins it and puts people off

No way, this is actually too funny to be true, but it is! LOL

I'm not against alts, but how are you gonna tell me with a straight face that you want the game to have LESS content while you're using FOUR alts just to get through the content drought?

yeah it's ultra ironic when they're lecturing people about relics being boring ? ? ?

Im not completely against Explore Zones, but they need to be better somehow. The NM Fate Grinds are NOT fun.
A souless bloated grind isnt fun or engaging. Just because it takes a long time, doesnt mean its enjoyable.

How about some side activities, more things to do in an EXPLORE Zone.
Combine old and new Diadem and maybe create some additional activities, and NOT make it a souless hamster wheel, and wed probly have a pretty Boss Zone

It baffles me that OP thinks grind is objectively bad because they personally don't enjoy it. There do exist people who enjoy optional grinds. I personally did 255 runs of DRN for my relic and enjoyed it, I would love to see bozja return, especially the 1v1 duels.
