7.0 copium has got to stop

[Koros]

Seriously, I don't even know where people get the idea that 7.0 is going to fix or even partially fix the problems with this game, it's not just one or two people, it's like the majority of the playerbase.

If you don't like the game at all, unironically save yourself the money and quit now because at this point this game is irredeemable. There's literally no point in waiting for 7.0 to fix anything. Spoiler: they won't. Only reason to stick to this game is for secondary, non-game purposes.

Let me just spoil the ending for all of you: FF14 is going to start failing, slowly, Square Enix is going to put this on maintenance mode in like 8.0 or 9.0 or something, maybe they'll try to revitalize it but fail.

CBU3 has like literally no idea how to make interesting progression systems, there is not a single exploratory content or horizontal content that succeeded with the entire playerbase. They just don't know how. They also fired some devs and leads who disagreed with the vision of the game (rumor), clearly they're not open to feedback either. So don't huff the copium really, no need to wait for 7.0. It's already over.

Every game will fail eventually. Although seeing the way game has absolutely boomed with success in both ShB and EW, I see 0 reason why 7.0 will not follow same footsteps in terms of core design philosophy. Which will keep it successful for at least some time, even if the 'harcore mmo players' of the forum negativity squad will quit for real and not to return the moment next patch drops. Plainly put, its not a game for that kind of player anymore, because that kind of player is scarce and not profitable, while MMO is a very expensive genre, especially with modern booming game costs, and this game has only exploded in both popularity and profitability by replacing things that appeal to hardcore players with things that appeal to casual players.. Over next decade, you will see more games try to repeat ff14's formula, and not ARR/HW FF14, but Shadowbringers FF14, which over time will become the new standard of MMOs, just like WoW set its own with WotLK

I did not realize it is pro-casual to introduce housing lottery bugs, write the worst post-expac storyline we've seen in this game, and continue screwing up character customization for Viera and Hrothgar

Troll copium needs to stop, if you dislike the game so much koros and TheNight use your own logic and leave right? Oh yeah you’re the same person lol. TheNight comments wanting to just see the game fail and your posting that it’s never going to get fixed blah blah so save yourself and leave then go.. leave you’ll be doing many a favour then because posts like this don’t do anything for the wider audience. At least Aveyond was pretty on the ball with their rolling statement of going when they said they would.

In germany we call it: Jammern auf hohen Niveau - Complaining on a high lvl.

I love the Game. Wheeee SE! You do a good job! <3

I do kind of have to agree. Or at least I am, and have been, very apathetic about the game and it's future for awhile. I do believe people should keep putting out suggestions, or trying to see change for the better, but I don't actually expect SE to listen or act on any of it. The game is kind of just in it's cycle.

I doubt I will 'quit' the game with 7.0, but I have been keeping my sub less, and even gave up my small - not like it mattered, since I can get another, bigger, one. I should say, I have always played the game very sporadically, and honestly, I actively play it about the same as I always have, but I am just not as enthusiastic about it as I was. SE definitely has the capacity to surprise me, but I really don't see that happening too much. It's nice for the people who are still hoping for the best.

Thats the Good Stuff!
Not that I need it, its just a Videogame. Ill pay and play until it stops being fun. This isn't my Life or anything like that.

Why does it matter if other people want the game to keep going? You obviously are praying it fails so you can run around and tell people "I TOLD YOU SO!!!".

Seriously though, just quit playing and go do something else ...
or you know, make another alt to b*tch whine and moan on a forum.
