tl;dr there isn’t enough content (personally) to keep me around atm, I decided to make this video for not only for myself but for those who expect XIV content, I will not be making FFXIV videos probably until Dawntrail and this channel will no longer only feature XIV videos.
Thanks for understanding.

Q/A:
Q: "I looked at your logs you didn't do the tier or any ultimate"
A: I did the entirety of e1s-e12s (on stream and there are videos on my YouTube of it) I also did UwU in 4 hours of prog (VOD on my Twitch). Logs are obsolete, it's a random number based on only the people submitting their numbers for comparison and random variables such as materia and ilvl. I've never had BiS so my logs will naturally be low.
Q: "How can you say this when you haven't raided at the top level!?"
A: You don't need to do it to be analytical E.G: Coach analogy.
Q: "You aren't actually quitting."
A: "I haven't played FFXIV probably since a month after Crystalline Conflict came out. It's been well over a year. (I resubbed for 1 day to play fall guys).
Q: "RAHHH THERE IS SO MUCH CONTENT WDYM!?"
A: How are you commenting this when within the first 15 seconds of the video I state on 3 different occasions that the game doesn't have content for ME, it doesn't offer ME anything and that everything in the video is my opinion. INCLUDING THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS VIDEO!
I wanted to make this video for those who expect FFXIV content. I will no longer be focusing on that whenever I do feel the want to create something. My channel was never meant to be solely FFXIV, I just make things for fun no matter what I play and I want to go back to that instead of feeling pressured to post stuff I think XIV players will want to see. I hope you understand. <3
11:07 = Channel Update.
Also, fuck Emily! 🤬
the fall guys gameplay in the background for my enrichment
Doesnt matter you leave for a break or leave forever; FFXIV will always welcome back returning players with open arms.
FF14 has fallen down a lot in the last 2 years; I am not surprised so many are quitting the game.The community in FF14 these days is full of RP players or solo players who are the most toxic people I have ever seen in any big MMORPG.
9:00 Oh Boy reaction Videos to some Other reaction Videos😂…
Damn bro, your ff content when you wwre having fun is what got me into it! But i get it. Im starting to feel the same way man.. we are pumped for your new content!!
"I want to play the game, not to be a therapist for little emily" PFFFFF
Goodbye
Modes…
Endwalker sucks and square enix is taking bad care of the game since now like 2 years, it's always the same content, the same patchnotes, they recycle everything, they are lazy or they lacks budget.
This video came off extremely bitter, there's some valid criticism you're making muddled with a lot of dumb statements. I can see online you've never once completed a savage tier from start to end and have killed uwu only once (yes i know you've mentioned this statement in your video but it still rings true) yet have such huge statements to make about what makes a player in ffxiv good versus bad. I could understand scheduling just not working but you can easily pf the tier if you've been there when it released without too many issues. yes every player could clear in theory given the right amount of time but you're not comparable to a sports coach just because you watched a guide online and failed the duty a couple times. there's content in the game to do for newer players, it's just not that every player will want to do all the content they put out which is completly fine. you could have said you just don't enjoy the game anymore without shitting on people who cleared said ultimate content without saying "actually they only cleared bc they put in the the time not because they're good!" you would understand this is bs if you had cleared yourself.
this game has a lot of issues and there's just not enough stuff to do for your average casual who's been playing for a decent amount of time. everyone knows this but don't go around putting others down because you couldn't be bothered to even complete one tier or any ultimate beyond uwu
I dunno why y'all are always so bitter about it, people act like FFXIV kicked their dog or something.
And people also always complain about there not being anything to do but then they never even do anything…
There's A LOT of things to do but people only do things if they're forced to do it for the gear grind which is stupid…
Also if people run into toxicity etc consistently then I think it's an issue with them and not others… I've played the game since ARR and basically never run into toxicity, every time I see someone complain about toxicity they leave things out that make them look bad to make themselves seem like a victim.
Usually it's just people acting like assholes then getting mad when people push back against it.
Damn, this raid tier really got y'all quitting the game.
Go back to WoW. You need the add ons.
Ok, who are you again? And why are you in my feed?
I never get how people always complain about there not being enough content when the game has only so much content in it. No game has infinite content and not every game should be some rougelike game.
There are problems with the game but most ppl seem to be complaining more about simply running out of things to do rather than just putting the game down till next expansion and play something else as if ffxiv is all they do everyday.
In short, most people are just bored. Not saying you are sleepy but people today for some reason just forget that the average person plays a game in full and nvr come back to it at least not after a few years.
You are incharge of your own entertainment. If you are not entertained, go find something else. Content is what you make of it and even Yoshi-p says take breaks and play other games. FFXIV is not an end all be all game there are other games out there.
wow just wow a that such a shock(sarcasm) goodbye mr lynx 2.0 ;(
everyone has their opinion and people are valid in that the amount of time they save you doing stuff in this game makes it easier to complete and quickens how fast it starts to get slow and boring, but on the opposite side of the scale you also can't convince me that adding massive more amounts of grinding to the game would improve it when freemium games have created a market off selling the ability to skip in-game grinding to players, for people with less time it's fun but when you play a game as a career then long unnecessary grind and heavy rng is the only way to keep someone busy, you can't really have both, if you make a lot more easy content for people to run for prizes or whatnot you get variant dungeons which get knocked out in a day or two, then if you make something so hard that it takes a long time to prog then people get more toxic and harder to find teammates, burnt out and complain about the difficulty and some give up completely and gain resentment for the game like zepla did with TOP, this is the price of having high accessibility and a generalized audience appeal, i can't help but get the feeling that the gaming industry is starting to turn everyone into gambling addicts.
I don't blame ya. XIV isn't worth it any more, time to find a new game(maybe even genre) to fill that void XIV leaves open. The game isn't for MMO Enjoyers anymore, but for the instant gratification crowd. Let 'em have it I say, and pray the next FF MMO will be a proper MMORPG experience. The game is slowly becoming a joke, and its community a circus.
Poor Emma…. 😢
You know the majority don't raid or rp cat girls. If you want a hardcore game, idk why you came here. No one's going to miss you. Bye
Another video of "I'm quitting the game (for the patch), care about it (for the patch)!"
I'm sorry, but for all these youtubers, if it's not permanent, then it doesn't mean anything.
This guy admits to not raiding at the highest level and still tries to give his "expert" take on skill ceilings when it comes to raiding 😂😂😂
Oh no who will stir up drama for the next 9 months til Dawntrail releases? This community gonna starve to death…
In every single one of the 'I am quitting FFXIV' videos, they all gotta just randomly throw in a segment insulting RPers, followed by some form of "Not trying to shit talk, just my opinion."
Always tragic when a bun boi ODs on blackpills.
People really need to learn the definition of "quitting"
" I will not be making FFXIV videos probably until Dawntrail" that's TAKING A BREAK if you're planning on coming back when DT launches. JFC youtuber these days.
Brother, just say you're taking a break, don't say you're quitting only to come back for Dawntrail. Also, I wouldn't quote someone like Lynx Kameli his entire video was pure misinformation and disingenuous. His entire argument falls apart when he compares mechanics to WoW wheren in wow, YOU LITERALLY STAND AND WAIT unlike FFXIV dude. Anyway Hope you have a great break brother and enjoy your time off!
Oh wow another "why im quitting ff14" starting to get tired of people trying to hate bait,just leave without making a grand exit no one gives a crap lol,game still successful will be be successful,it has its issues,i dont white knight for it i call out it out for many of its issues,netcode included but like imma call out a spade a spade,these rage baity videos are so cringe 🤷♂️
Yeah man… been playing for 10 years. the game devs have gotten steadily lazier every single expansion. we get more of the same but less of it and thats a huge issue.
imagine thinking anyone cares
FK YOSHI P ALL MY HOMIES HATE YOSHI P, also u look like Nav
been saying this for years, top content for ffxiv is having internet sex with random people and pretending to be someone you arent 🤡
i don't usually comment on stuff like this but…
i mean, if you need to take a break or quit altogether, you can just do that? you can even post a video about it, quickly saying "hey guys, not enjoying the game as it is right now, just don't feel like there's enough content i'm interested in, so probably gonna just do other mmo stuff." it doesn't have to be a grand statement about the state of the game's content or story, which you indicated you haven't even really done much of if your comment about not having played for over a year is accurate. nor do you need to randomly insult rpers or people who write oc lore. what was that about?
like you're not wrong that there's not much new content, but older content like potd or hoh or even bozja or eureka if you can get groups for them exists and is fun and doesn't even require knowing a thing about the story. if none of that appeals to you then fine, but it sounds to me like you're using a lot of words to try and make how you feel about the game right now into some objective fact.
FFXIV is like Stouffer's Mac and Cheese. It's always going to be the same thing, and for some people, that's just fine. Stability, predictability, reliability…these are all reassuring in a market for games that have been garbage and disasters all around. FFXIV will always be good. It will always be comfort food. It won't be an amazing, incredible experience though. It won't have that new car smell, that exciting, new experimental thing because that's just not how FFXIV is. FFXIV was recreated from the dead corpse of 1.0. They are NEVER…EVER going to fuck around like that again. The trauma induced by it, so long as Yoshi P is in charge, will be to never, ever do anything that could dare harm SE's cash cow. That's fine. It just gets bland and stale after a while.
FFXIV's MSQ was literally one of the best stories that I have played through and experienced via a video game. Bar none. Absolutely one of the GOATs. Shit, it's on par with actual classic stories and better than some of them. It's true art. The gameplay loop on the other hand…it is what it is. The biggest thing that pushed me away was how mentally deranged I was getting and irrationally angry at random idiots that couldn't do TOP prog in PF and in groups. People who could not do the BASIC things that were required of them, and prog liars. I loved the fight. Not the people. I'm almost certain that I earned myself on many a blacklist for calling the unskilled shitters out for what they are. Unskilled shitters that can't be assed to press their fucking buttons. P6 prog but we wipe to p1 and p2. Nope. I don't need that kind of drama in my life. Shame. Weapons are super cool, I cleared it like three times with a group that I cobbled together.
