XIV is a game where you get a few dungeons and raid zones, wait 3-6 months, then receive a new batch. All content can be done within the first week if not the first day.
The expansion provided a huge amount of content that was very welcome, but it seems they went back to their old ways after everyone bought the expansion unfortunately.
I guess they know how to make money and keep people playing at a minimum cost to them.

I do at least like their new update concept of decreasing the new dungeons to 2 at a time in favor of making different sorts of content (like Lord of Verminion this time around). I hope that continues to show in the future instead of just... having one less dungeon every patch.
I think the major content in XIV comes from playing and gearing all the different classes/jobs... which works for some more than others.
EDIT: extra note. Repeating same two dungeons over and over will suck... but honestly it sucked even when it was three.

They were going at a one on one off type deal before 3.0 but they lost momentum after.

Oh sweet, got a critical success on a "find the lost ship" admiralty mission and got an ultra-rare one-use ship card from it.
There's only one rarity tier higher than that, and I'm pretty sure there aren't ship cards for that tier yet. Think it's gonna be reserved for named ships like the Enterprise.

So try some of the other content
You're only limiting yourself, there's more to do but you guys don't want to. They can't design just content for you, they have to design content that a lot of people will like. Which they are.

There's still stuff to do, it's up to you whether you want to do it or not. Saying there's no content is just a lie though. Some of it IS short lived but it's still something to do. You also don't have to speed through everything all at once, you can pace yourself and spread it out and try stuff with friends instead of just zerging everything with randoms. Of course it'll get boring.

Oh okay, apparently there are epic-tier ship cards. And they are indeed named ships. ._.;
These two are apparently rewards for reaching max rank in the Federation and Klingon admiralty systems.

I was only directing that towards expert roulette, not XIV content as a whole. I mean that shortening the new dungeons to 2 will not change the repetitive feeling of expert when doing them over and over throughout the week to cap tomestones.
By Draylo 2015-11-06 17:33:56
It's been like that forever though. Since 2.0, you spam the same handful of dungeons to cap tomes, either do coil or tower and nothing else really to do. I love all the people who are like "theres TONs to do! just get items for glamour or feed your chocobo or go racing!"
Then they say "oh you don't even have all the jobs to 60 or all the relic weapons!" Then you realize these are the same people who quit XI saying it was dead and boring and yet I bet they didn't do all the content or level all the jobs or have all the REM and certainly didn't continue to do the chocobo racing or mini-games in XI.

Yeah it wasn't really directed just at you, sorry. Meant that most players only do the weekly 24 man and maybe expert dungeons and then log off because there's "nothing to do" and it's a bit ridiculous
Edit: The ones I've seen do this haven't even tried the other content so they don't actually know if they like it or not

Constructive criticism is fine (and things you wanna see in the game) but all the "lol XIV sucks" type posts are unnecessary. The same goes for "lol XI is dead" ***, it's stupid as hell.
By Jetackuu 2015-11-06 17:46:23
If you don't know by now, you don't deserve to play it!
I put it in a spoiler, happy? No, I grew to like it unspoilered. >.> Too bad.

XI is better in some ways, XIV is better in some ways. Why people bandwagon one or the other so hard is beyond me. Just because you like apples doesn't mean oranges automatically suck, which is as good of a comparison between the games as you're going to get.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
