You are way to adversarial over this topic. You need to step back and breathe. It isn't a big deal. I find content to do every day in FFXIV. I enjoy FFXIV. I am not alone. You will have to live with that fact. If you are unhappy walk away from the game.Old content is old, once you are done with it, especially if they have limited lifespan which is what most of FF14 content is right now for the past while.
Making your self and making excuses to do old content isn't valid especially when the thread it self is asking what to do at MAX LEVEL and MAX LEVEL CONTENT something FF14 is getting worse at and content taking longer to be released.
If you want to do old stuff, go for it, plenty of people don't and its with merit, good reason and valid feedback to the devs that more relevant content is required in the expansion we are in.
This thread isn't for you then, feel free to live in the past.
Socialize with people. Is it that difficult to do so in a MMO?Since i lost interest in doing those things years ago.
I wonder what else can i do at max level.
When i started playing wow in 2007, i was taking every reputation to max, doing daily heroic everyday etc.
Nowadays those things doesn't interest me anymore.
I wonder what else can i do at max level.
Thanks for the info,
Cheers,
What's really wild is I'm also the sort to always be finding something to keep me engaged, and there is zero overlap with the things you find engaging.I have been playing since launch and find things to do every day. This is tough for a lot of people to accept. I do maps solo daily for loots. I run one or more deep dungeons daily for the challenge/loot. I also run frontline a few times as long as it isn't the shatter map. Hoping SE gets shatter right with v3. This new shatter is so PvE centric all it does is aggravate me and get me one step closer to getting my account banned.
Honestly, personal feeling, there's kinda too much to do in game now. Lotta stuff I look at and say "I'm never going to get to that any time soon."
Roleplay is an option.
I think it's more that social media took away the need/importance of organic socializing in mmos. It used to be you HAD to chat with people in game to find a group of friends. Now, you can find a discord for a hobby, and you're instantly in a group of like minded individuals. For some, it's incredible. For others that enjoyed the old school style, it feels like something has been lost. I think people are still generally just as social as they've always been in mmos, now it's just connected to 3rd party tools like you said.
Maybe it's just me coming from those Open World PvP MMOs, but whenever I hear "social" from anyone I immediately become suspicious and question the motive.
Now that I think of it, my first "MMO" experience probably gave me trust issues.

The better third party communication tools do impact it but I think it's more than just that.I think it's more that social media took away the need/importance of organic socializing in mmos.

Back in the older days of MMORPGs, you were limited to playing with those on your character's home server and there were no group matchmaking tools. There was more need to make friends to get group content done so you'd socialize more, get to know other players on your server, help out others with gearing and clearing content because that would expand the pool of players to draw from when someone couldn't make it to raid night, etc.
Social media wasn't going to help you out much if those like minded people you found weren't also playing on your home server. Even today we see a little bit of that with the region restrictions.
Now there's no need to make friends. Just let the game match you to other players who want to do the same content. PF lets party leaders be more selective when that's needed but it's still basically getting matched to the random player to fill your party.
If you get lucky enough to run into the same players on repeat occasions, you might still end up becoming friends but those repeat encounters aren't that common in standard group content.
That could be. I had generally good encounters before I ran into my first bad one.
