I don't get what problems you're having... About to level 30 my third battle class, got like 4 or 5 crafts to.10-20 stage, and no shortage of money or people to instance with.

Yeah what's up dude?

The only thing wrong I see with the game is the potential money problem.

At lvl 50.

When new characters are no longer made and their income ain't being brought into the game.

I've been disconnected three times this week alone all while in the middle of a fate. Besides that the lack of gil or armor/weapon drops from mobs is really starting to bug me. I know I'm not 50 yet but I'm already concerned with the lack of gear sets. Seems everyone of all classes follows the same gear progression. I know this one isn't going to change but it's also really annoying having to switch to a different class just to gather. I either have to focus entirely on gathering or fighting. Would be nice to be questing and go, oh hey, there's a rock over there I can hit and get stuff. Maybe I'll just stop questing for 20 seconds to go do that. I'l be honest, this game has me missing WoW right now.

also Pugilist is about the most boring class ever. One macro for all attacks. Basically I just spam 1 button the entire time unless I need to heal myself. Then I have to hit a second button.

Okay, Jeff, I love you and all that, for serious, you're like my cooler older brother who I respect, but please, tell me you didn't just blame macros you made for making the game boring...

it's not the macro itself that does it. It's the way the Pug fights. It's basically attack 1, attack 2, attack 3, start over.

Also, huge mistake on SE for making your chocobo part of your party. Can't easily group with people on similar quests anymore. Can't join Duty finder if using your chocobo.

Normal random party works like this

Oh, that guy is doing the same quests as me, right click add to party. Do quests together.

Now how it works

Oh, that guy is doing the same quests as me, right click add to party. Oh he's already in a party because his chocobo is out. Oh well.

Damnit Blokey, I want customization. I want something that makes my character different from the others. And no, dyeing my gear does not accomplish that. I'm still the same basic cookie cutter character but wearing green instead of blue.

I have literally never used my chocobo for anything other than a mount. Don't know how to make it fight, don't care.

also Chocobo randomly for no reason leaves party forcing you to use another item to bring it back out.

Does your chocobo leave at around the half hour mark since summoning it?

I only ask, because they can only be summoned for 30 mins before they withdraw, but you can summon again immediately.

Do you not read the tip boxes that tell you these things? :D

there's no reason for that other than making us use more ghysal greens. I have 7 more days on my trial but unless this game picks up soon I think I'll go back to WoW for a bit.

Side note, I did figure out how to search for gathering spots while not being a gathering class. Still sucks when I have to switch to that class to then gather. Now it's just a minor inconvenience though instead of a major one.

Not to just contradict everything you're saying for the sake of it, i promise. But I really enjoy the gathering and trading being a completely different class.

Played WoW for years and that way just seems a little...I dunno, not bad but this new way just feels fresh to me.

I get that a lot of people like it. I don't. It just seems to slow the pace of this game even more. And it's already plenty slow enough. I was enjoying leveling my archer up until recently. But the quests get repetitive fast. No variety at all. I've been doing a lot of reading online and it seems you don't see anything different until almost 50. And then what do you do once you get to 50? Same 2 dungeons over and over. Not really looking forward to that. Not giving up on the game. Just won't be paying for it until it is complete.

Y'know, I'm not gonna try and turn you around, because everyone is having their own opinions about this game, and it might be that you're genuinely not having a good time. That's a shame, cos I'm loving this shit. Even the monotonous grind for materials is somewhat fun, and doing dungeon crawls is a great way to collect loot and sell for massive cash.

The Chocobo thing is, I agree, pointless. Half hour slots? Don't see the point. But then again I bought a massive bundle of 99 for like 200g, so it ain't no big thang, but still kinda pointless.

But whatevs. It sucks you're not having as much fun as I am, but then this is my first "proper" MMO, so... y'know.

Still, I hope you stick it out at least til the updates.
