FFXIV "influencers" learned from WoW "content creators"


doom & gloom > pre expansion hype > 2-3 months of "everything is perfect" > doom & gloom

From my point of view as a mostly solo player it really feels like most of the criticism comes from content creators who want more new social content in the game so they can have more "interesting" content for their channels.

This forum aside I get the impression the average player doesn't have such doom and gloom for the game and are probably mostly enjoying it.

For all the "FF 14 is dying" videos I keep seeing every year the game has always felt highly active and healthy to me.

So I've never really related to these talking points.

I'm not a new player either, have been playing off and on since 1.0 and Endwalker is the expension I've played the most.

Is the game perfect, no, there can be improvements but something feels suspicious with all the content being pushed out about the game being terrible with "no content"

Maybe this game just fits my personality more than the average content creator. I mean I can't imagine going on camera and having to find something to talk about for hours on end about this game, but I have spent a ridiculous amount of hours in game just doing my thing, and enjoying it.

This post got long, will end it here.
