Unsubbed Thread (Tell us why)

[localareanetwork]

I've been permasubbed since ~4.55ish on a different character, then this one, and recently I've been thinking of unsubbing after Futures Rewritten is released, and that's only because Eden's Promise was the first raid tier I completed on content. The story is just complete garbage IMO, all of my drive to see what's next is gone, the nerdy discussions I've had with my friends about MSQ either don't exist anymore or are just arguments from people that love Disney slop, battle content aside from maybe Ultimate, which is only two times per expac, is literally all the exact same to me (We cleared this raid tier in 2 days after it was released, a lot of it was because of "oh this mechanic is xxx thing from previous fight"), they aren't making an effort to do things they have once done like add new job weapons to old fights, not ever addressing egregious clipping issues with certain hairs, hrothgal rigging, viera/hroth hats, a large portion of my time as a fanfest attendee spent sitting and looking at an advert for a mogstation mount, jobs generally all feeling the exact same or making them a lot less fun, and a billion of smaller things like them not fixing portraits, the dc travel issues, them finally making something basic mmo feature like chat bubbles a feature 11 years after launch, the state of housing, inconsistent mechanic snapshots, all of it just seems worse than it was before. Don't even get me started on the general playerbase, the average raider is so obnoxious about the damage they're doing; it's also gotten to the point where cheating is not only standardized in PF, but also encouraged, or MANDATORY for fights like DSR/TOP.. people have been cheating for a long time but ever since TOP it has gotten so bad to the point where I see this sentiment almost ANYWHERE I HAPPEN TO BE. I hate all of it, and I don't think any of that is really worth the $12.99 considering they're not really pouring the resources back into the game. A big "huh?!" of mine recently was just how much gear/weapons were blatantly missing from the Benchmark... like, why? I enjoy the graphics update, socializing, raiding generally, PVPing and effectively just playing Gaia Online 2.0 with 14 lately so that's all that's keeping me hooked now.. for a couple hours until I just sit AFK in Limsa while I do something else.
