OK, what do you do each week?
None of my crafts are at sixty, so I spend some time each day gathering up the materials I need to make my GC turn in items as well as some levequests. I'd rather do that than just drop tons of gil on it.
My botanist and fisher aren't 60, so I spend some time leveling those up. I do expert, I level up my other jobs (BRD and MCH currently). I do some chocobo races and minicactpops.
By the time I get done doing all of that, I've been on the game about 3 or 4 hours. That's enough for me for the night and I log off.
Rinse and repeat and I don't get bored, because I am also talking to FC mates on Discord, helping them with stuff, doing maps, etc.
Even before HW all of my crafts weren't at 50, so I focused on that, leveling up the rest of my jobs, etc.
There's more to do in the game than end-game raiding, which is what you do based on the exorbitant amount of comments you make in the thread about how bad people in the game are and about how the dev team should but up arbitrary ranked gated content before someone can move on.
We're no longer in 2002 when FFXI is competing with Everquest and WoW wasn't some big boogy man that MMOs are trying to mimic. There's is a literal smorgasbord of options people have nowadays, so it doesn't bother me one bit that I don't have to set alarms to wake up in the middle of the night to pop and tag and NM, spend an entire work week raiding, or drop hours upon hours upon hours of time just to get a relic.
