Current state of ffxiv

Most of my playing is autopilot these days. I run an Expert Roulette while I drink my coffee in the morning. Then I show up to raid night, mostly to hang out with the gang for a few hours. That's about it. Sometimes if I feel compelled to play more I'll work on a crafter for half an hour. There's just no real hook for me anymore. The game needs a good hook, like Legendary items in Guild Wars 2.

I made a legendary amulet from ranked pvp. The grind was so brutal. It forced me to play wvw. It was such a cancer experience that l Don't plan to make the back piece. l plan just to afk farm for gold Then buy legendary weapons when they drop in price, lol

Funneling everyone into WvW for legendaries is probably my least favorite GW2 design choice, but I at least understand why they did it, and these days you can get it down to about four hours' worth of playing. I find that legendaries on the whole are much more palatable to craft when you don't obsess over them, but just kind of work through the checklist a little at a time while playing other content you enjoy for gold, which will complete other parts of the checklist. If you obsess over them, it ends up feeling like Atma from the ARR Relic grind, one of the worst periods ever in FFXIV history.
