Hi everyone, as said by the title, I’m losing my motivation to play FF14, but I don’t know what to do about it. This seems like a silly thread and I’m almost embarrassed to make it but I have absolutely no clue what to do and I’m hoping you guys might me able to help.
I’ve been playing the game since mid May of this year, and I’ve been playing almost every day for at least an hour, when I got off for summer break when I was still in high school, all I did was play FF14, I normally would’ve gotten bored of playing one game after a little while but FF14 managed to get me through the whole summer and up to here without me losing interest thanks to its gameplay and me worrying about me wasting my sub, up to here being the thing to remember here. The only time I remember taking a break was for a week after my sub expired, that’s it.
You might think that I’m just playing to much, and I should take a break, but with college, I really only get 2 or 3 hours of play a day depending on how long I stay up for, so it’s not that entirely it. Maybe it’s that I’ve played too much in the long run without playing other ganes, but when I think about that I can’t thknk of reasons why I should play other games, I still got jobs I wanna level up, DoH, DoL and combat jobs, but after I think about that I think what’s there to do after I level all my wanted jobs to 80? Do savage and EX content? Well, pf’s suck to much for that to happen without me getting frustrated, and all the statics have these wack schedules that mess with my college schedule by interfering with my sleep schedule and studying, so that’s unlikely, but what about crafting and gathering? Well they’re fun, but I can’t do them for too long, doing nothing but Ishgard for a week to level my crafters burned me out hard, so I couldn’t imagine bring a omnicrafter who does nothing but craft all day with my own gathered mats in order to get money for a medium.
But what about housing? Sure I enjoy decorating, but housing is a big money and Gil sink, and I just said what I feel about crafting and gathering for too long, even if it’s for decorating.
There’s other things like maps and RP, but I can’t do maps for too long or I get burn out, and RP isn’t my thing, and even if it was Balmung and Mateus and congested so I ain’t transferring there. I’m thinking of Fantasing to Elezen but I’m worried I’m not gonna like it and be forced to waste money on another fantasia, and I don’t need to tell you why I’m afraid of that happening.

After writing this, I’m starting to think I might be suffering from FF14 burnout, but at the same time I think about how good this game is and why I should even bother playing other games, and how my sub will go to waste if I do stop than I think about what I’ll do in FF14 if I do continue playing and it all seems boring/meaningless/dull. So what do you think? Am I suffering from burnout? Am I just doing the wrong things in FF14? Something else?
