It's more complicated than that.

I really don't think the game is, at its core, as interesting or deep as XI; I think that's by design, because it's meant to appeal to a more casual player who isn't going to bust out Excel to maximize DPS, or level 12 different subjobs. While I'm the model of a casual player these days, I still hate thinking like one.

The vertical gear treadmill is so obnoxious. I despise the model, at its core architecture. XI started doing some of this at the end, too, but there's still a permanence to some gear (some of the Delve I gear is still relevant! What from 2.1 still matters?). This in a way helps me, because it means if I get the itch and come back, it'll be less work to catch up, but it also means there isn't as much impetus to stay subscribed the whole time, especially if I'm not really feeling it.

Honestly, if I could move to Exodus without hurting feelings, maybe? Half the reason I went back to XI was to hang out in the charred wreckage of TToF. But I've got enough RL friends on Hyperion still, who'd be pretty upset that I don't like the game enough to play with them, but I did like it enough to shift and play elsewhere. I don't like any game enough to deal with that.

I have to grind CNJ up to 17 or 18 so I can continue the storyline in FFXIV because my MRD and GLA are 20.

Oh, lame. You can't log in to the Lodestone without an active account? I wanted to register my Exodus character to post with!

Die in multiple fires, SE. I won't miss you when I'm gone.

Georg Prime was a badass who took no crap from anyone. What makes you think he'd tolerate subpar customer service?

Inside joke. I was mad there's no BLU in 14, Stepth said he would make me some gear and dye it blue, Aery intervened and changed the dye to pink. Whenever I go afk, I come back to a bunch of guys creeping out on me...

FRIENDS LIKE THESE, RIGHT!?

Why they gotta know?

Ditch them like some warm cold cuts and delete them off your flist before you server hop.

I don't know how flists work in FFXIV, but I know lAery uses them to stalk me somehow.

Friends keeping friends from having fun with other friends sounds unfriendly...

I mean you're not playing with them now anyways so why would it even matter if you want to go hang out with some other people for a bit.

Everyone gets tired of Byrth pretty quick anyways :)

It was a pretty sad affair. Trying to clear T1 in two pieces of darklight gear, 3 people on TS and failing spectacularly!
