Lets be extremely honest here. It is in service of the devs more than the playerbase, it gives them stability and some metrics to works towards in their every day lives every year so everything is calm and they can farm a paycheck for years on end. This is GREAT for job stability. Its just bleeding into the game and its HELL OF BORING to experience in a game.

We come here to get away from the normal job life and daily chores. But it feels like we're trapped in someone else's digitized version of it at this point. NGL.

Honestly it sounds like you just wNt a different game entirely.



XIV doesn't seem like it will ever be the game you want it to be, and frankly, I don't think any new mmo will be either.
