I played in the same guild since before 2010 and we did up to HC raids and some M+. After the previous expansion it sort of began to fall asleep and I have mostly been playing tier 11 delves solo and story content, and some random groups, since then. I play almost every day when I’m not on FFXIV. Have some 24000h logged so I guess I think it’s fun still 😀
I can’t say much about the community as a whole. I can see in forums that some people are having issues, but I have generally met very nice people.
So if one does not want to give id documents out for id theft the alternative is to live off the grid? So much for eu digital development.
