Hey, I'm opening this thread because I'm in a genuine struggle lately and I really don't understand if at this point it's just me or it's a game related issue. I'm the owner of a very small FC, and we have some occasional players and some all-year subbed raiders. Problem is, while we normally hang out via other games, somehow it feels like there's nothing "fc-related" that's worth doing all together. Literally, it feels like the only content we can do together is... roulettes and maps? Idk, Limsa's ocean fishing? Content that everyone can run through duty/party finder anyways without having to necessarily belong to our fc?
It's been since I started playing this game, but I feel like compared to other MMOs there's no real need to be in an FC to do anything, which is good I guess, it avoids to gatekeep content, but at the same time isn't it bad that there's no real incentive to play in one?
I'm feeling this dilemma being kind of heavy lately especially due to me spending so much time in Light with our part of FC who's really into raiding, while we go back at Chaos, we maybe run roulettes together with everyone else, from time to time we might do maps, but then again, maybe mount farming, but we're kinda trying to squeeze these things because otherwise there's no real incentive in doing things together, not as a FC anyways... I do the same on other DCs with friends without really belonging anywhere
I was thinking, couldn't we have some type of in-game activity that's specifically tied to Free Companies? Like having something like FC leaderboards being also tied to content like Firmament/Diadem, Eureka, Bozja, all activities that normally it's already funnier to do together, Idk. I'm just putting out very simple inputs, but if you have suggestions it's really good. I think this type of stuff would not necessarily set up any fomo to stay subbed, but might push fc members into working together for something, Idk, some gamers just like dem shiny numbers. Rankings for gc seals are kinda dumb to me because especially on my DC there's just a lot of people botting to stay on top and they don't really need to work for anything, but that's another type of conversation I guess.
TL;DR: Am I the only one that wishes FC had some guild-type of activities/incentives to play together? Do you have any suggestions regarding this? ;-;
