  • FolbyOrb said: This bothered me, too. It bothered me from early on. I think at level 15 there is a dungeon you have to do to continue on. I like dungeons. My favorite games are dungeon crawlers. Dungeons are why I fell in love with World of Wa…
  • QuarterStack said: So... Let's do some math, shall we? * Red Mage will start at 50, instead of 30 like the original jobs, or those introduced with HW. It will probably require having another job at level 50+ to do the unlock quest. An…
  • ErgoProxyDecay said: Hopefully the skill overhaul would be good. Honestly should try to bring back maybe team party combo skill of some sort to make every also perform better team play. Why do people insist on making the game terrible? T…
  • Originally posted by elocke The next 2 financial reports are what matters.  When the dust settles from an expansion launch and certain players leave and certain players stay then we'll see what kind of financial legs FFXIV has the.  For me, it was t…
  • MMO Vet mirrors his (misplaced) discontent of the genre on FFXIV with incredibly vague and subjective criticism: thread #3146
  • Originally posted by Albatroes The optional service of buying retainers. I didn't really pay it too much attention until the new expansion and collecting new materials only to see that the management of my two retainers was starting to falter. Inte…
  • Originally posted by ShrikeArghast I really don't see any reason to resub at this juncture. It's not that FFXIV is a bad game; but its pure, unapologetic theme park design just feels like an exhausted horse tethered to a lonely telephone pole -- I d…
  • Originally posted by LeGrosGamerV2    SE had the MMO genre at their fingertips, but dropped the ball big time. Even I was amazed at launch, and I'm pretty hard to impress, but as months went by and that my skills began to be over shadowed by RNG, I …
  • Originally posted by elocke The OP mentions meta game.  My issue with FFIV though is that it's meta game is dwarfed in comparison to it's predecessor, FFXI.  FFXIV still suffers from the WoW effect of being a loot/raid heavily oriented game as oppos…
  • Originally posted by Xatsh For Some bettering themselves and their guild is the game. The vanity side quest, Vanity Crafting/Gathering System, Vanity/side story quest are 100% meaningless and throwaway content / Simply not worth doing. For them sp…
  • Originally posted by Razeekster I have been waiting literally over a week for a reply now to an issue I have. This is after they took 4 days for their first reply. What the actual hell?! That subscribers aren't given top customer service is a grievo…
  • Originally posted by Dr_Shivinski B. No one actually knows the subscription numbers for FFXIV, they have never released that information. The closes we have is something along the lines of 4.5 million accounts created, and the general consensus is t…
  • Originally posted by scorpex-x Get ready to fall out out of your chair again, fall down the stairs and fly out the window then. The peak of subscribers FFXIV has ever, was 650k.  It has NEVER had sub numbers higher than that. ESO had well over…
  • Originally posted by Dullahan Originally posted by Hyanmen Originally posted by Dullahan   This isn't exactly the case. Its not that people hate on games simply because they are successful, people hate the fact that the success of some …
  • Originally posted by Kyleran But apparently they've lost enough players to make it worth the effort to entice them to come back. The industry standard is somewhere around 30~40% retention rates after initial purchase. Yes, it is worth the effort t…
  • Originally posted by Dullahan Originally posted by Hyanmen Originally posted by Waldoe Lol don't mind him and the constant crap he spews. FF:ARR is doing more than fine without him. In fact, his constant negative comments have not stunted t…
  • Originally posted by Lord.Bachus How much actuall progression is there when you reach max level?   Class progression? Story progression? Gear progression? Dungeon progression? Area progression? Crafting progression?   In general i …
  • If I tell you it is ridiculous to make a statement like this without backing it up, does that make me an extreme fanboy? As long as you remain vague in your claims this thread is completely pointless. For all we know you could have gone to the off…
  • Originally posted by Nephaerius As a new player why are you in such a rush to get to the expansion anyway? FFXIV is not a game where everything starts at max level. In my experience i's a game where things just continue as they were at max level. …
  • Originally posted by Waldoe Lol don't mind him and the constant crap he spews. FF:ARR is doing more than fine without him. In fact, his constant negative comments have not stunted the games healthy growth the least bit.   One does wonder about…
