Honestly, game is fun

[AvoSturmfaust]

Agreed.... OP, if you're having so much fun, why are you on the forums where people give feedback on how they want to see the game to improve and saying 'all is fine, stop complaining'? FFXIV has plenty of 'the devs can do no wrong, there's nothing wrong with the game, there's plenty to do' in this culture of toxic positivity to begin with.

This sort of narrative is really pointless, especially in the only spot we can actually give feedback.

Because the Forum is not alone there for complains, dooming or anything, there is something called "positive feedback" because there are still more people as enough which enjoy the game

Exactly positive and negative feedback is needed, but you don't have to attack the other side while giving positive or negative feedback and then go "I did nothing wrong" lol

Tell me when you spot positive feedback in this thread because OP opened the thread with telling people who complain about the game to quit.

There's a very brief line where they list content they like

TRUE, roughly a sixth of the opening post, the rest was to tell people who are unhappy to quit. Why does so called positive feedback always need to include that part. We'll never know.

I am well aware the forums are for positive feedback as well, as someone who made a very simple thread praising the addition of the door partitions with wallpaper options. It was a very simple thing I've been wanting for years, nothing too crazy and yet it made housing a lot more fun and customizable. I was really happy when they added it. Another thing I'm happy about is some of the new trophy crystal glams, I think they look really neat. Finally, adding old series rewards as purchaseable by crystals too. It's a lot of content I can do without being storylocked on alts, and a ton looks lovely.

But, all of that said, making a thread for the purpose of saying 'game is fun if you're not having fun just quit' isn't really valid feedback. It's insulting and baiting people. Not to mention OP calling folks 'mental'... come on now.

I myself think a lot can be done to improve it. I'm staying for my own reasons even if I think there is a massive amount to improve on. I don't think saying 'just leave' to people is helpful, and someone's not going to quit when reading a thread like this of all things, lol.

"Pick a team" is what I see in this post.
Doomposting is just a method of trying to make SE listen, because polite suggestions aren't exactly helping. We've already reached the phase of voting with their wallet too.
And no, I would not like to quit the game until 8.0, because I am apart of a community in this game, and you just don't ditch your community you've built up and hanged around with for years because "game bad".

BUT 8.0 is my personal limit if they fail to deliver, then it's just gonna be discord hangouts or another game.

I understand most people finished everything they could but again, saying there is no content is a complete lie. There is ton of it, and I wish people actually run them instead of being AFK, posing and complaining here and there "game dead".

Many of these grievances originated from the perspective that Forked Tower, a content that should have been accessible to everyone, was unfortunately not catered to everyone. There have been many a thread with posts discussing this issue. Now, while this is just one of the factors, I think it is a major one, considering the fact that it was released with OC, and it was a big piece of endgame content everyone was looking forward to. People, regardless of whether they were casual, midcore, or hardcore, did run and attempt this content, but the clear rate was abysmal. On top of that, the entry system was heavily criticized. So the “game dead” argument really was, in my opinion, centred around how unapproachable it was and still is.

I'll probably get hated for that take, but the eternal dooming over this game is tiring. Move on if you dislike the current state of the game. Also nobody cares about anyone virtual house. You bought your property knowing the risk of it all. Which is being trapped in paying sub for keeping a virtual house, where you never AFK in or receive people in.

Look at it this way, people tend to doom because they want to make things better, and these are the people who still play the game. The sad part is, the people who aren’t dooming have probably already moved on, and the player count can, more or less, attest to this.

I'm playing it for quite some years now, haven't start DT yet even if I know how bad the reputation of it is already but, it baffles me a lot when I read that "there's no content".

The problem, I think, is the fact people won't run anything that doesn't involve glamour. People don't want to play any content just for the sake of it. I love deep dungeons, I love Bozja, I love doing hunts, I love doing random quests, BLU, craft, fishing, .. I'm basically done with all content but I still come back and play some of it all because, well, it is fun.

I understand most people finished everything they could but again, saying there is no content is a complete lie. There is ton of it, and I wish people actually run them instead of being AFK, posing and complaining here and there "game dead".

Now if you're a +10 years player, I can understand the frustration. But if I was a +10 years of playtime, I would take a break and go play something else, it's not that serious at all.

My point is, there's no need to have great reward to justify fun content. Now if your fun is to get all rewards, well I'm sorry for you. We can't do thing about it. But now if you're not having fun anymore, it's time, once again, to move on. And that's absolutely fine to do so.

10 year player here, I'm still doing some of the old stuff I didn't have time to do before, when it was released.

I think the problem is that people don't want to repeat content, ever. The second you're expected to run something more than once, it's labeled a "grind." Iterative gameplay is no longer desireable.

That's bait

I love doing hunts

I rest my case.
