Genuine Question for Frequent Negative Posters

[Banriikku]

I think more people really need to understand this. At the end of the day SE is a business. But they're not gonna change if you just keep subbing despite your grievances. Maybe you leaving won't change anything, but why does it have to be about that? If you (not specifically you Banriikku) are so dejected by the game than that alone is enough reason to unsub. Why give your money to something that isn't giving you your money's worth? Giving feedback is one thing, but it's not my job to spend years sitting on the forums trying to give feedback to a dev that isn't even listening.

There are plenty of far better games out there that I could give my time and money to instead right now. I think some people, particularly MMO players due to sunk-cost-fallacy from paying a subscription fee for so many years and being invested in their characters, get way too emotionally attached to game and that becomes their reason for staying, and gradually they become jaded and some turn toxic. It's a video game at the end of the day, and at a certain point you really just need to step back and ask yourself if this is really worth your continued time and money.

Hmmm... i think you are going too far with "dejected" and "too emotionally attached". You let it look like a buisness transaction without emotion but thats not how a hobby works.
Sooo... how do you go with youre hobby without or less emotions ? Eitherway you are reading too much into it or you are disconnected from reallity.

Better games ? Subjective and depends on what you want. I want a FF MMO and F14 is the closest thing to this. I gave feedback like many other but most of the time we get back " we heard you" or silence. After a looooong wait, we got then some halfbacked features and even absolute tone deaf things and very fishy excuses and/or PR sentiments. Lets be honest youre argument is the same as "no fun ? unsub..hur dur.." just more polite. So some of us or just me, i dont know, are just disappointed in the ignorance and disrespect form other players and the devs alike. Sure we have some people that are absolute doom but on the other hand we have the shiny corporate protectors... so i think its balanced as it should be- Thanos meme here pls.

If you think youre point i valid lets have look the other way around.
HOT_TAKE: If youre fine with the game you should not be on the forum in topics for critique or the forum itself because it is all fine and no feedback necessary. You should only sing praise, be logged in the game and pay for the mogstation. At a certain point you need to aks yourself are these people worth it ..... you could be logged in and playing the critical acclaimed... i stop here.
Sounds bad and absolute bonkers or not ?
