The real reason there are even subscribers in 2024

Square Enix has been a laughing stock of a company for years. It will never get better. Dawntrail will likely be the last expansion for many people before they switch to a different game. The “other MMO” is coming back and its newest expansion has good reviews.

At least one person has said this about the "other MMO" for the past 3 expansions and it never plays out because Blizzard can't refrain from shooting itself in the foot.

And if you want fun JRPG combat? FF7R has that.

Oh hunny. Hunny no
The last time I truly had fun in a jrpg was KHII


As for why I sub. The raid tier is really enjoyable with solid music. Plus I'm grinding out alpha wolf. I'm not really sure what the point of this post was besides regurgitated shower thoughts. It's like ur angry at the community when they say they don't see things exactly like you do. I think you need to reevaluate your critical thinking process here

Let's be really honest why there are people even subscribed to FF14 in 2024:

It isn't because it's a video game, or because it's an MMO. It's not even a good RPG anymore. Go play Divinity Original Sin 1&2 or Baldur's Gate III if you actually want to play a good RPG. And if you want fun JRPG combat? FF7R has that. Story? Lol. For the first time it's actually worse than WoW's.

Let's all be honest. The reason why people are even "playing" FF14 in 2024 isn't because people are "playing" the game. It's because FF14 has the best suite of third party, ToS-violating tools that help you look your best in screenshots. Or the best in different custom poses. Or the best while they're all unequipped and you're doing gods know what down there while staring at those unequipped characters.

It's also because FF14 has the best drama. Desolance? Xeno? Arthars? Healer strike? Wuk Lamat? Need I go on? It's always a fun time to be in the FF14 community because every other day some human interest story will organically pop up that lets people get a huge whiff of what absolute human depravity looks like.

And it's also because you can find your e-girl or e-boy on some steamy Discord and get dating while sitting on each other's lap (both catgirl ofc) on the Limsa Lominsa Lower Deck Plaza bench under a tree right to the left of the marketboard. But really it's all just Discord and using FF14 to heat up your room.

Who actually subscribes to FF14 for a video game after all?

Nah the only reason I'm still subscribed is because of housing auto-demolition. If I didn't lose my house, id of quit till next patch

I'm only staying subscribed because there hasn't been a decent new MMO release in a while, and it seems even the ones in production have been delayed. I might give WoW's newest expansion a try, only for the fact that I miss playing classes(jobs) that are actually fun to play with better class identities, and a real healer role.

Might even go back to playing EverQuest a bit again as I'm already bored with DawnTrail.

All MMOs are shooting themselves in the food for various reasons. WoW, Lost Ark, FFXIV, EvE... the list goes on. It seems that the willingness to shoot yourself in the foot is a prerequisite for the job XD

It’s me I’m the real reason the game has subscribers

[alfarini]

EX DEE LMAO. nice weird bait

[NightHour]

Im subbed because I enjoy getting achievements I didn't have and catching up on some crafting ones while I play a game on the side, waiting for things I want to do to pop up in PF or stuff like S ranks. I also just generally enjoy helping people complete old content and catching up. I also just ... Generally like existing in the game world. Like, not even RPing, just chilling.

Sorry if I don't fit whatever narrative you're trying to push here.

I'm subbed for many reasons

1. I enjoy the game
2. I have a house
3. I enjoy raiding Savage and Ultimates
4. My FC
5. My Friends
