Hypothetical Question

[Ath192]

I was browsing through old reddit threads comparing 14 with other MMOs and I had a question pop into my head based on some of the responses speaking about the social aspect of the game being a driving force of why they stay.

Hypothetically speaking, if your friends/community in 14 suddenly decided to quit the game tomorrow would the game itself (i.e. the content) be enough to make you stay?

There is no right or wrong answer, just curious about perspectives.

Most everyone I knew already quit, permanently in all likelihood. Somewhere in the vicinity of 30-40 people. The few I tried to get into the game failed because they didn't want to play 10 years of content mostly solo since the MSQ is more often reading and solo quests than multiplayer and the game didn't look that good anymore compared to other games in general, not MMOs.

As is, Endwalker isn't enough to make me stay, I advocated so hard for a graphics revamp this is why I stay around like a ghost, because I won't ask for something, get it, and quit anyways. But Dawntrail's gameplay has to be funner than this. So right now, the game isn't enough. I wouldn't even recommend it. But I am holding out hope it improves.

Heck, I would even argue the game got SO STALE, that it made my community quit, despite the community and friendship lol.

Yo! Aries how you doin!

Hey! Hey! ^^ sup? You wanna do something?

Uhh I'm capped on tomes and don't have anything to spend them on, I guess we could run a roulette for the same static dungeons we've played for 10 damn years now?

Yeah... Ugh, maybe we could PVP CC for some fun, that's always variable depending on the team we get.

We can't even queue to that together... I'm prolly gonna log out, see ya around.

Cya. T.T
