Three words to describe FFXIV

[Calysto]

"nostalgia, shop, crossover"

I also got "maybe try ultimate" XD

Why play still?

No seriously if none of you lot in this thread like this game why do you carry on playing it?

I know nuance is very difficult and all but...

Some people do actually still have vested areas of interest in some facets of the game (enough to justify a subscription), even if the general content is trash, and then some people have extrinsic reasons as to why they remain subbed, e.g., friends.

Like, I personally still love Eureka, and still have quite a lot of friends, and frankly if it weren't for my existing character progression I probably would have just recreated a free trial account, and letting this account slowly fade away.

I know courteousness is very difficult and all especially when trying to look really cool but....

If you describe the game in 3 words and all of those words chosen are negative like in the majority of the posts in this thread that's going to look very much like you don't enjoy the game. I wondered and still wonder why someone who felt that negatively about a game would continue to play it.

Like I replied to you earlier. Perhaps I shouldn't have used the 3 words memes required by the OP to do it.
I still play because there is still content that I do enjoy, but it's unfortunately stopped being the mainline content of the game, so since almost everything is always about said mainline content, then it inevitably make all my posts seemingly extremely negative, because my outlook regarding said content is extremely negative those days, after festering for so many expansions.

Nah, I was just responding with equal energy, beyond a point it just gets tiring to hear the same "Why are you still subbed remarks", as if the overall opinion of the game applies to every sphere of content.... Like I find many games garbage, but still find enjoyable aspects about them.

I will describe the game with whatever 3 words I see fit, and frankly, if the majority of the content is meaningless routine gutter content, then I am not going to send praises for it.. I am just simply describing the bulk of the game, and like I told you, I still love Eureka for example, and other niche activities, but I am not going to pretend that these activities are:

a) an accurate depiction of my stance towards the overall game.
b) that the content is still developed in the manner that I personally like.
c) That my activities constitute the majority of the game.

If you wanna hear praises or what people enjoy about the game, or if you want to see more diversity then go ahead and create a thread asking those whom are dissatisfied what they still like about the game, or what activities they enjoy doing, and I am sure many of them will respond with diverse enough reasons that still justify their subscription, even with an overall sense of drop in quality of the content (from their opinion).

I genuinely think the answer to this isn't that we dont like it.. and don't want to play it. Don't turn it on the community that's loyal and begging for new innovation. That's the purpose of the forums and community of XIV, letting them know when we, the playerbase, is unhappy with what we're being given. A game that we pay the sub for, because we love the game, being on a decline in what we want.
