FF14 player count reached the lowest point in 4 years. We lost 75% of the playerbase.

Recently i feel that quite outdated system of the game work deeply against me other than on mine benefit demotivating me futher to be away from the game.
I don't think something like a video game should be seen as a life accomplishment and when we see certain achievments , accesability restriction where we gotta seek discords to actually enter the new content area... I feel that i'am the issue for the game instead of being a living part of it.

The more people can actually enjoy the content the more people are willing to be part of it and give a life to the society living in a game.
Otherwise we are where we are right now where everything was supposed to be for 3-7% of playerbase who does clear everything.
Heavy duty grind is what we do daily at our jobs pushing it to be in the game does increase the burn out.

I would like to hear any poof of evidence where accesability did caused a harm towards the game itself. So far the market does prove that most living games are those what are the most accesible where most of the playerbase can enjoy lots of the content.

I want to share an quick example of FRU to unlock it you do need to clear latest tier 4th fight.
However what does happen when you are too late for the farm train on that and there is a new tier unlocked?
No one does the previous tier or is willing to learn it with you to prog it you will end up on hours over the hours in the PF.
Someone could say find a static - but then that's addtional challange where certain static would be willing to grind that as well.

Life circumstances are not equal for everyone yet access to a content should be specially if the requirements are outdated when the new tier is being realised.

There is way more examples like that in our game like tome cap etc... At this point is it even worth to mention those? Do they listen to us?
