What's FFXIV's Endgame?

[Popcorn]

Is it just raids? I am nearing in on 2k hours but I'm a dropdead casual player, I play on and off whenever I feel like because there's just nothing I found that really pulls me in. I do my few dungeons every now and then whenever I feel like but, is this really all?

[Giganx]

I do a lot of old relics.

Outside of the usual roulettes; glamour, hoarding gil and crafting have been the endgame for me lately. Crafting is kind of a dead end in this game, though; so not sure how much I'm going to keep that up.

Pick your poison.

Not everything is for everybody. Yoshi P literaly said that people should play the game for fun. Leaving and coming back is a valid option

So raids or roleplay? Those last 3 all fall under the 'make gameplay yourself' category.

RP and Socializing aren't really things I'd consider content either.

If you want a more exhaustive list of game featured content you can focus on at endgame there's...

Progression Raiding
Roulettes
PvP
Island Sanctuary
Gold Saucer
Beast Tribes
Crafting/Gathering/Retainers
Collecting (Mounts/Minions/Glamours/etc)
Side Story Content
Housing (if you can get a house)
Variant/Criterion Dungeons
Deep Dungeons
Relic Weapons

Is it not? According to this thread "make content yourself" isn't a valid content category for some.

Yes pretty much. Most of my in game friends are either raid logging once a week right now or unsubbed. Not really a lot going on atm unless you are doing TOP reclears.

For me it's glamors

Basically end game can start around level 60.
On your journey to 90, if you do the blue quests you unlock a bunch of older expansion/base game content, most people skip by them thinking they are not relevant. Savage raids and high end raids are completely optional.

At the end of ARR (Base Game)
you unlock
-ARR Beast Tribes
-Palace of The Dead Deep Dungeon
-EX mounts
-Gold Saucer which provides chocobo races, Gates, Triple Triad tournaments, lottery
and a few other stuff.

Then you get to HW which adds a ton more endgame stuff.
-More Beast tribes / ex mounts
-FIrmament crafting Area. / Diadem gathering area
-Wonderous Tales

Right up down to Endwalker every expansion adds a lot to do in terms of End Game.

Which is totally fine. YoshiP wants people to also play other games and come back when they wish to.

[Drakzen]

- 8 Person raid (Normal and Savage)
- 24 person raid
- Extremes
- Unreal
- Relic farming

Just the combat oriented ones
