Fillers for Heroes


Yes Filler!
But no...not finish filler for walls... I mean Ingame 'fillers' for heroes.
It's a thing that always made me sigh...I saw it in many games but to talk about the 1st two that comes into mind, WoW and FFXIV.


After playing WoW for a while, maxing a character and finishing the main story line I became a HERO!!! Yay~! You save Azeroth from a certain faith and everyone knows your name! You are so awesome!!! Then the expansion came, then in the first few quests, I had to dig in poop. And forgive my lack of sense of humor, but not only they make you do it once but many many times....Dog poop, racoon poop, Fox....yadda yadda....poop. You get the idea... Wasn't I a hero? My guess at that moment was that either someone on the dev team had a thing for fecal matters or....They were trying to tell you something... In the line of: 'Hey you WERE a hero but not anymore because there is so much more to do and you are so little compared to what you can becomes so, eat poo commoner'? I'm not too sure of what the intention was... And then they make you go on plenty of silly little quests that have pretty near to no connection to the main story line.

I have just went back to FFXIV and when I quit before, I was the hero of the light! I teamed up with The Scions of the Seventh dawn to defeat the Ultima weapon and so on... Then...now I'm fetchin tea leaves, earrings and perfume as part as the MAIN STORY LINE.... Are you serious? And then... teleport here, there! here again ~! and Back and teleport more~!!

It's leaving a bit of a bitter taste in my mouth... Especially when my gaming time is reduced to very little. (Friend) Hey Sofy did you play FFXIV last night?
(Sofy) Yeah for 2 hours then my son woke up, ending my gaming spree for the night.
(Friend) Great how do you find Heavensward? : D
(Sofy) I have no idea...I've spent the entire 2 hours fetching wood and perfume and peaches and shit..

You get the idea of my rant?
Yes? No? Toaster? Fillers?
