10 years to complete 1 achivment "Enraptured Service"

[Umbrah]

Nowadays people want easy games and can't stand a little difficulty, like constantly doing the same quests for 10 years...
Sad!

I second this.
FFXIV:ARR isn't for the first 2 months, it's for life.
With your maths, 6 a day (very doable) is 5 years.
Imagine how boss you'll be in 5 years when you get that achievement...
I'll respect you.

What retards would like your statement.. 10 years to do something over and over again? LoL get over yourself

A lot of them look like placeholder's to me. I really can't judge until I see what the first patch looks like.

This must be true, since one of the achievements is earned by completing 30 unique guildhests, and there aren't anywhere near that many unique guildhests currently in the game.

There's no limit to how many guildhests you can do per day, so your point isn't really valid.

The point is 100% valid. Who in their right mind would sit there and do 10,000 pointless guildhests instead of spending the time doing more productive things?

That is a series of achievements I will never even bother trying to get. No value in it at all. There are plenty of much better ways for earning gil, so no - that is not a reason to do them.

The exact opposite of people like you. Completionists love these achievements, they will be done for sure.

I'm sorry, no one is going to do this. It's utterly pointless and is the very definition of tedium. Not that I really care about achievements, but I think the foundation for all of them is to encourage different play styles. Like explorers should have achievements for exploration, the elitist should have achievements for dungeons and raids. Like having the whole group kill X boss with level 1 weapons.

I fail to see what category do this task over and over a thousand times fall into. Not the completionist, not a sane one anyway.

Unfortunately, "do this task over and over" pretty much describes nearly every single achievement in XIV. Disappointing.

If you feel it is pointless....then simply don't do them. It's not like anyone is forcing you to go for that Achievement...
