After playing other mmo's FF14 becomes so boring

[Psycha]

As title says, if you play alot of mmo's then you come to this or even coming back to FF14 it becomes such a snore fest, the same crap as every other expansion and every other content patch.

New Patch/expansion: Go through a cookie cutter story dialog and have to replace your old top tier gear you worked hard for then once you get all this done they hit you with a patch that makes all of that ♥♥♥♥ you worked for useless.

Some of you might recommend Gw2 and I'd say ok but until they either update the engine or re invent their player economy because lemme tell you, gold amounts per day you grind for are so low compared to ALL other mmorpg's that have thousands or billions in their economy numbers(BDO for example with the high amount of silver as a normal amount).

To sum up what I'm trying to say is, if you are thinking about coming back and are on the fence about what game to play, spend the sub money elsewhere because my sub renewal last night was a mistake.

This game is a good dating sim though, that deserves a thumbs up, alot of lonely fat men wanting to have sex with my digital cat girl is amazing lol.

like i said most older mmos did that. modern trash is modern trash for a reason. and is rightfully called out on this reset bs since years. but its cheaper to make and costs less thinking from the devs and less planning ahead.

older mmos that had these kind of things for example where :

daoc/aoc/gw2(this isnt that old tough)/some parts of aion (this was later sadly changed entirely)/ff11

there is probaly alot more i forget right now. some of these never raised thier max level cap either during thier lifetime. for a reason. max level is purely number bloat and doesnt actually serve a gameplay reason other than to force expac purchases in the end. skills can be added without doing that easy. this is a major downside of most modern mmos sady but i guess they care more about the money than actual gamedesign these days anyway from what i have seen. if you can get away and make money with cheap copy and paste why put in any effort?

Thanks to some of you for not being a troll and actually see what I feel in my post. The rest of you either need to read it again and try to understand my point of view after playing MMORPG's most of my life, so many years but of course I may get tired of the formula but that isn't really my issue in this game. The main issue behind all of my ranting is the devs keep coming up with the same formula without taking any minor risks in changing it to better a different crowd other than the elitist raider. The ultra savage and ultimate raid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is a good example of that. Use that effort in creating those crap heaps to putting out smaller changes in the content they put out, no one cares what the top 1% wants anyways, try catering to the millions who sub for the story and open world activities instead.

P.S: I liked the stories on all expacs and I bought the game for the kitties and to casually explore everything, I didnt rush ♥♥♥♥ in this game until I was forced to buy it through steam and skipped all the content I already went through, hence my low game hours in it. So eat a ♥♥♥♥♥ trolls...

unfortunately, that's the majority of MMO's today. they cater to the hardcore to keep the game alive. as usual casuls get left out. that's just the way it is.

Bear in mind this fact. There are only 3 ultimate raids out right now, and 4 "relevant" savage raids. These so called elitist raiders only get 4 raids per major patch, and 2 ultimate raids per expansion.

Meanwhile... Casual players get crafting, a plethora of dungeons, tome gear, hunts, boss fates, the hunting/fishing/sightseeing log, eUrEkA, and pretty much everything else in the game that isn't savage or ultimate and even then? Just about anyone can do the former. You're not expected to keep up, that's just you or your fc mates telling you that. Play at your own leisure.

As for the point about them not taking risks? They found a system they're comfortable with, and don't seem too interested in being bold. If you don't like it, no one is forcing you to play.

I agree with the op, it's just a generic mmo, hasn't got the classic feel of a good FF story

Say's the guy who has less that 24 hours total played. Which means you never played Heavensward or any expansion or at that rate any ARR major patches.

Yeah an the story had Zero progression in that time which just shows it's another generic mmo, hence all the wow refugees

To each their own I guess.

The early story was pretty boring. It leaned heavily on Final Fantasy trope nostalgia and didn't have much substance beyond that.

However, there have been three expacs since then, with dramatically superior writing, voiceovers, and plot. You really can't get a feel for this game as a whole in 25 hours.

You mention the engine for GW 2 is the only thing stopping you which amuses me because that game has gone to the dogs ever since HoT.

That's sounds more like an personal opinion rather than an general fact honestly,

anyone could say the reverse since most of those games are either dead, dying (or in maintenance) or changed the way they handled end game gear due to the general populace

Uhm, I play a LOT of MMO, did before finding FFXIV already. Ever since I joined FFXIV all other MMO are boring me. So not sure what your problem is. No account for taste I guess. Personally, I love FFXIV and find it better than all others. Even after 5 years. Shadowbringers I found the best expansion so far. If you don't like the game then leave. No one forces you to keep paying sub. Then us actual players can also continue enjoying the game. No need to make a post like this, what do you expect? For us to beg you not to go?

Savage raids are actually every other major patch. So the "elitist raiders" aren't getting another four savage raids until 5.4, which is going to be either at the end of this year, or early next year.

"No account for taste I guess" Really? Sure you found love in this game and now it only appeals to you. Same could go for me because I enjoyed what Black Desert offered in the beginning, wish more MMO's worked off their graphics style/engines and combat at least minus the P2W mechanics.

Prob should have disabled comments tbh, I wanted to put my OPINION out there for people to read and relate to and some have related to my opinion which is nice to know im not alone and maybe could hope to try again playing this game but the rest of you trolls here prove that I shouldn't bother returning. Can't take an opinion about your game? Don't bother commenting.

when you post something in a public forum, as long as the responses don't break forum rules then they have full right to post them.

you also can't disable comments on forum posts, only moderators can do that.
