It's great but you have to power through ARR. It works as a worldbuilding expansion but it pays off in the end. From Heavensward and onward the plot really picks up a lot. FF14 is my favorite RPG story.
If you like WoW-shit themeparks and only care about the singleplayer questing experience it's fine. Althrough, I wouldn't say it's "worth it" past the free trial unless you really like the trial.
WoW is dead. Accept it.

is ffxiv worth it? endgame looks cool but the free realm reborn story is just a slog
She's right and you all know it. It's the same formulaic content loop for the last several expansions now and this one has even less relevant and midcore content. The majority of people actually playing right now are just latefags progging something. There is absolutely fucking nothing to do right now. Yoshi needs to free us from the wheel.

Have you ever thought to yourself "I'm having fun with this MMO but what I'd really like is a fuck ton of grown men pretending to be women and openly ERPing in general chat. A copious amount of open pedophiles would be really cool too"? If the answer is yes then you will enjoy FF14.
Not without the use of 3rd part plugins. These are against TOS but as long as you don't say you have it its usually ok.
But the devs are totally fine with almost completely naked child like characters and so are many of the most disturbed players. Stay in this thread long enough and they will no doubt start posting their pornography.
If you get penumbra and open the plugins menu its called "visability". You can just target every pedo and made them disappear forever. Just don't mention that you've done it and you should be ok.
You're talking about all of the pictures of modded content that you will never see in the game unless you use the program that lets you share mods with people you know and link up with to see them and vice versa?

the endgame is actually the worst part of the mmo right now, even the raids, which is supposed to be biggest endgame feature of ffxiv is in a pitiful state.
I was going to say wait until the new expansion. There will be a lot more people playing making the MSQ progress more bearable since it's nice seeing other new players doing the same quests as you, and there are more older players willing to help out newer players.
Since you already started though I'll just say what everybody says: the story doesn't pick up until HW.
After HW the story goes uphill until it peaks with the best FF story in shadowbringers. After that it's EW which has some high highs and some very low lows dipping into the current storyline which is some god awful filler garbage until the next expansion.
As for content, the game has several mini "end-games" after each expansion. It's cool. Once you beat the story for ARR you get to do a bunch of new level 50 dungeons and raids and unlock some new classes. It's a good place to take a break and enjoy evergreen content that people always do because they're forced to do it for their dailies.
After that it's back to the story grind until you get to HW. Once you beat HW's story you unlock a bunch of level 60 dungeons and raids and a bunch of other cool shit. And then once you do all that the cycle repeats itself until level 90 and soon level 100.
Then once you get to endgame and exhaust all the cool normal content, your choices are >enjoy raiding
if you like raiding, you're in luck. AWESOME raids.
if you don't like raiding then... >do weeklies
you're fucked! this shit is boring!!! everybody nice who helped you on your journey is stuck here because there is nothing else to fucking do but groom new players into this vicious cycle!!!
or >quit the game
congrats, you played ff14 like a singleplayer game like everybody told you to do and moved on with your life!
EW launch? Definitely. Leveling Reaper in bojza and waiting for Chi led to some of the most fun public interactions in the game to date. Going through MSQ and witnessing the final chapter in the story, experiencing it with everybody was so magical.
6.1 was such an awesome start to the post-patch content with the PVP changes. REAL changes and lots of people to engage and play with.
DSR was one of the best spectacles in the game and a real goal that many wanted to attain
and then...nothing. the game died not with a bang but with a whimper
>EW launch? Definitely.
It fell off so hard. Newfound adventure looked so promising, and then it was back to DRAGONS, VOID, REFLECTIONS, ZENOS. Not to mention the lack of an exploratory zone .
Dawntrail looks like what I expected out of these patches, let's see how long it takes before we are back to the usual stuff.
I didn't even care about going back to big stakes again, I just fucking hated that it was all about the scions again. It was such a bittersweet ending to EW where they all part their ways that gets completely ruined by seeing them half an hour later again.
Yeah. I knew they would not be gone forever, the disbanding was just a ruse after all. But they did say they were going their separate ways for a while, I didn't expect to see them until the next expansion stuff started. I love them, but a break would have been great (absence makes the heart grow fonder after all), and an opportunity to give some other characters the spotlight.

Fucking no one ever dies in FF games. Usually at most you have one main character death, 3-4 side character deaths. In XIV we've lost like half the party along the way. I don't know where this trove of "BUT NO ONE EVER DIEEEEES" retards come from.

it would have done so much for Y'shtola if they would have shown her being legit inconvenienced/upset at losing her real eyesight. Her struggling to write a letter or spilling water because she didn't see a mug, breaking down for a second in an unseen moment would have had a way bigger impact on her entire perception. I know it is not how she wants to be seen, and her cope with grief is to just bury it and work harder but right now it legit seems being blind is an upgrade to most.

I love them, but a break would have been great (absence makes the heart grow fonder after all), and an opportunity to give some other characters the spotlight.
You do know that the whole "disbanding" thing was explained in-game as the Scoins wanting to get away from being celebrities and going back to being more-or-less regular people, right? Nowhere was it said that they were going to disappear forever so another batch of buttbuddies could come in and fill their roles.
>There will be a lot more people playing making the MSQ progress more bearable since it's nice seeing other new players doing the same quests as you,
What? no, this is by far the worst part of doing the MSQ, seeing tons of players in front of an npc to take the quest totally kills the inmersion. I would like the game to have an option to hide players by default because in Endwalker last zone for sure it kills the mood seeing a male roe with a maid outfit around.
Are all bi cucks who play this game psycho? I can't join an FC without finding that one couple who is bi sexual and "looking for a bf for the guy teehee". the female is always fat and into witchcraft and the guy is just as fat and has no backbone. also terrible at the game. she is a healer and he is a tank but both can't into mechanics. Seeing the word "bi" is an instant blacklist at this point.

I sometimes wonder if I'm playing a different game than you.
I fucking wish I was playing your version. I just want to grind moogle tomes and play the fucking game but there is always some alphabet whore hitting me up or some couple wanting a threesome. its happened to me 3 times and I've only been playing the game for a year. I can't tell them to fuck off because then I will be canceled from the entire game because its the BEST WHOLESOME COMMUNITY EVER. every fucking server is full of these fags and trannies. I don't give a shit about your sexuality or what you claim to be, just let me play the damn game
It has never happened to me, but I'm playing a male character so that might have something to do with it. >I can't tell them to fuck off
Why would you even want to respond?
Right click -> blacklist
It's that easy.
Of course. Because they have been making it up for years. These retarded doomfags have nothing to actually criticize the game about so all they do is falseflag as real players and make up shit that actual players will instantly know is bullshit but new players might not. All in a vain attempt to prop up their dead furry game that they unironically believe they are helping.
They do it for free btw
Literally had 2 hrothgars in my expert roulette calling the portrait system homophobic because it reset on him and he was wearing all rose pink dyed casual attire. Healer had to stop halfway through a boss fight because "she was pregnant and the baby kicked the shit out of her". The fags said "uwu". I just want to fucking play the game man.
retard, streamers don't get burnt out on games. they're all pivoting to variety streaming/fotm games because those provide far more views and engagement than current xiv, which is on a downward spiral
>streamers don't get burnt out on games. they're all pivoting to variety streaming/fotm games
xiv didn't have streamers before asmongoloid basically created the xiv streamer scene with his arrival. What xiv did have was small time youtube video makers. Now that the wow refugee rush and EW hype are over, those youtube fags that became full time streamers are grasping at ways to maintain any relevance.
gonna add on to the other anon by including blue mage into midcore stuff. it's more like a blend of semi-midcore and midcore but it's definitely not hardcore considering it's a lot easier to clear old savage raids with blue mage.
what this game really is missing is interesting casual stuff, which I think zepla is more appropriate for. I wouldn't really call someone that can't even play dancer properly a midcore player.
There's Unreals, Extremes and imo Savage Reclears.
Not gonna say Criterion because its not worth doing.
She probably doesn't have a static so progging through Savage through PF is gonna be hell
The problem is that there isn't any content for people who just don't like the DDR encounter design. There IS designspace for different combat, but the devs just double down on increasingly shitty mechanics in every type of content. It just depends on how much of the inane bullshit you can stomach. Devs are just too married to making fights as unfun as possible to raise difficulty.
If you don't like a realm reborn then stop playing, it doesn't get better.
The chud mmo addicts will tell you it becomes the greatest story in video game history, but it's the same shitty wow clone filled with light novel cliches and some of the worst gameplay I've ever experienced all the way through.
This is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like this. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. This character could not possibly be anymore me. It's me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that this character is me. This character is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that this character is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and this character side by side, you'd see no difference. I can safely look at this character every day and say "Yup, that's me". I can practically see this character every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to this character. I chuckle softly as I'm assured everyday this character is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I've found my identity with this character and I know my place in this world. It's really quite funny how similar this character is to me, it's almost like we're identical twins. When I first saw this character, I had an existential crisis. What if this character was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if this character actual became aware of my existence? Did this character have the ability to become self aware itself?
And assmongolian too tied to the failure of criterion also final boss endwalker was Twitter oh how smart are the devs being self concious like kingdom hearts 2.9 at hercules world...

I can't tell you enough how happy I am to see more and more streamers and other ~~*(influencers*~~) quit this fucking game.
I've played so many MMOs in the past and XIV's e-celebs are the worst dogshit I've seen in my life.
Not a single bit of creativity, not a single bit of personality, not even an ounce of fucking entertainment. It's all glorified react channels and background noise, utterly devoid of meaning and entertainment.
I fucking sincerely hope all of them fucking off will lead to better player content in the future. I'll be happiest if MrHappy quits forever too so that his strats can stop shitting up everything.

Mage: >SMN - lmao >RDM - One more finisher (Uo to 3 now) >BLM - oGCD to grant polyglot.

And magic barrier.
They also fixed the aoe rotation, the aoe buff, changed manafication and how much mana you need for the combo.
>And magic barrier.
Forgot magic barrier was 86. Feels like it shouldn't be >They also fixed blah blah blah
Not new abilities, that was just to streamline the job. You dont think about those while leveling RDM to max
They were significant though, but yeah, it's not something you "look forward to" while leveling.
I hope Dawntrail gives RDM more support stuff, but I expect a 4th finisher.
NIN got a useless addition to Doton and a incredibly niche gap closer, along with a on button Huton in case it drops. I legit wouldn't know what to expect other than another big damage OGCD to weave unless the combat gets some new system to interact with in general.
To add to it, Raiju was a very controversial skill when added and it still is a weird button bloat that became "use forked all the time unless you need to be at max melee range"
The fact that you have to use it once it is up is just weird. If you could keep the stack it would be fine and you could gapclose with it, now it is useful in the 5% of cases where you have to disengage AND can cast a raiton during it. Not that you need it since you already have the best movement skill in the game with Shukuchi.
>blm got paradox in ew
besides meme paradox rotation which, iirc got culled in a patch, Paradox is just Fire 1/Blizz 1 upgrade.
Sure its a nice upgrade over the shitty fireball you had since ARR, but I hardly call it the best thing in EW
>eventually
Didn't they already say they'd rework it along with DRG in DT or did I just assume that since they rework AST in every expansion at least once.
What is there to fuck up any more? The class has nothing it had on release that made it stand out, cards are entirely a non entity, no sect switching at all and the additional systems like Lord and Lady we got are just a complete waste. I guess Star and Macrocosm are able to cheese certain mechanics..
>cards are entirely a non entity
The old system and the new card system are not really point anymore since they made AOE balance into horoscope.
What actually triggers the fuck out of the dev team is that AST is hell to play on consoles and the absolute necessity of macro'ing the "play card" to usable levels.

Seriously. I would have no problem with SMN if the summons had like 5 sec casting time to feel like an actual summon and not just "throw it out of the book"
EW was the most controversial based on changes too: >PLD rework >Monk to this day still fight over double solar openers >Dragoon Mirage Dive button shenanigans >Ninja Raiju bullshit >Sam lost Kaiten
And the worst >Selene became a pet glamour
became a pet glamour
That was Shadowbringers though, unless you really want to pretend that it doesn't count since you still had an extra button that only applied a different color to your fairy.
Even now, if you queue Whispering Dawn and Fey Illumination one after the other, your fairy will sperg out and not cast the last one.
They cannot, and will not, fix pets. Beastmaster will literally not ever be a thing
And that's after they made the fairy more responsive in EW. I can't wait until they remove pets altogether and we only have to deal with new people asking for a pet job.
Then again BLU is pretty wonky too so if they wanted to make a janky beastmaster limited job then sure go for it. Just pretend that the pets being hilariously unresponsive is a part of the minigame.
>Even now, if you queue Whispering Dawn and Fey Illumination one after the other, your fairy will sperg out and not cast the last one.
How? The Fairy isn't even a thing in the game world any more, it might as well just be a character animation. Why are they doing inane graphics updates when mechanical stuff like that still isn't fixed?
>it might as well just be a character animation
it is, in fact you can test it out, cast fey illumination then whispering dawn and dissipation 2 seconds after and you may not see whispering dawn
>Why are they doing inane graphics updates when mechanical stuff like that still isn't fixed?
Contrary to these threads schizo beliefs, people who actually play the game are not the core audience of XIV anymore. The primary audience are grifters, people who exclusive play for the MSQ, and those who ship their female WoL with Thancred, Graha, Zenos, or Emet.
I don't get where they're going with Scholar at all. It used to have full control of their fairy, being able to use the fairy ogcds mid cast AND manually embrace people. Then they took both away in ShB and we got awful ghosting because now you try to cram ogcds during a bio/ruin 2 window. I just gave up on the damn class partway through ShB because of how annoying it felt to play compared to SB. At least Astro has some autism every 2min with cards, but that's definitely getting nuked because controller players can't do all those weaves as easily as kb+m.
I get healers aren't played as much but holy fuck making everything WHM-lite wasn't the solution it made the problem worse.
most fairy control got taken away because of pet unresponsiveness and the fact most scholars did not actually use any of that control (there wasn't need to)
>BRD is different
No it isn't. pressing Radiant Finale (Coda dont matter) together with Battle Voice every 2 minutes doesn't make it different.
And now they forced you to be at 80+ gauge to use Apex Arrow
They streamlined dots. You received nothing 80 to 90 except for a party buff that plays exactly the same as Battle Voice.
Tell me how 80 bard changes from a 90 bard.
>Tell me how 80 bard changes from a 90 bard.

Questline that makes you do group content, incorporates crafting, FATE, dungeons, 24mans and trials, and the community hates it because the Atma and the light step were minor inconveniences. After finishing pic related in XI I can truly say that the ARR (and HW) relics were the perfect fit for XIV and were absolutely not bad.
>group content
Hard Trials were between normal and extreme, and could be reasonably done with DF. They were mostly hard because people sucked and had no idea what they were doing at max level. You will never get that kind of content/experience back. >incorporates crafting
SE is deathly afraid to make Gil have any value, so today it would be a non step, unless it were items that couldn't be put into the AH in which case socially awkward people would be upset. >FATE
Yeah I guess. Would be something to reinvigorate the overworld, incorporating FATE into the relic. Or maybe hunts, or both. >dungeons, 24mans
Not really needed from a dev standpoint since all the old dungeons can be done via trust now. It would be interesting to have 'extreme' dungeons that are scaled so that you absolutely can not pull wall to wall and have to pay attention to mechanics. I feel that would be good relic content.
I think most systems you named are just not feasible any more so I suppose the devs just removed it and put the relic behind a minor amount of generic tomes. Which is sad, since having something to grind across the expansion was nice.
I would, but then it will become "um sweetie you didn't clear it week one it doesn't count you don't really play the game." Unfortunate to see these threads descend into a raiding rat race like WoW, but I suppose that's my fault for expecting better.
as long as you cleared it during the expansion it released it should be good, specially DSR

I cleared both on patch and I definitely judge on patch, on expansion and post expansion differently, especially TOP. If the DT ultimates are the same there's no way I'm taking someone who did TOP with the relic, dungeon gear, better food and pots, well established strats and AM crutches if I can help it.
A clear is a clear is latefag cope.

Based, this. If you didn't clear in one month you shouldn't be taking on ultimates, they're just not for you and you're wasting everyone's time trying to fit in where you don't belong.

Its not SB anymore. Powercreep is so severe that ultimates don't count after their initial patch anymore. This is primarily why ult culture took a sharp turn for the worse in SHB; a lot of players went back to get an easy ucob or wr clear, and wow transplants cleared tea in 5.58 thinking they are hot shit.

It's exactly the same as usual. Ult releases, gets slapped with food, pots and a couple job buffs next even but is still similarly tuned then it gets destroyed by dungeon gear next odd. It's not that significant, you just require maybe 1 less mit and can afford 1 death on places you couldn't afford them before. Not even close to cob where you can recover with full party weakness and damage down.
Send YoshiP in fulltime XVI, let someone who enjoys XIV work on it. Make the Fujo the head writer and order her to have equal rights for non homo characters. Have anyone who designs content in XIV play XI and have them complete a REMA weapon, take what you learned from that and introduce it to XIV.

Yeah bad game, leave, never come back, especially not when the new expansion hits. WoW is much better, and did you check out GW2? That is also a game!

The way people on these threads act towards ecelebs is so weird, they're so easy to ignore yet at the same time people put them on a pedestal and are ready to kick them down when they don't say good things about the game. No one ingame treats their thoughts as gospel.
It's especially weird because FFXIV threads and even /wowg/ were nothing but surrogate chatrooms for Asmongold's stream when he was playing it. And every time some streamer would start playing FFXIV they'd post it in threads. Now that Asmon and ton of other streamers dropped the game, they're acting like they never cared about streamers. Biggest cope campaign I've seen in a while
Not at all, there are plenty of oldfags that hate streaming culture in general and quite frankly I really miss the old community. WoWfugees came in ARR but with each passing expansion the following waves had people that were of such a poor quality and calibre of person that it made the community worse. Shadowbringers is the straw that broke the camels back with all the stream grifters and secondaries coming in to act like leeches. Unironically I hope the riot MMORPG isn't shit so people who enjoy FF for what it is remain whilst those that are here for clout, money, stream grift, or FOTM move on to something else. Zepla's criticism are 100% accurate it's just that they're coming from a complete grifter.
Nothing. Mist dragon was already a joke in SHB, trusts already killed SB dungeons, Ivalice raids were nerfed or powercrept since 5.1. Eureka won't get much more traffic at this point. The most notable thing to come out of this will be a grifter powering through a F2P account and "organically" (along with friends on their F2P alts) getting into a party to clear UCOB or WR for clickbait.
Way more people in Eureka. Way more Ultimate carries. Some carry sellers might even make F2P carry accounts for when they dont feel like subbing but wanna make money.
Why do streamers seem to just love loudly screeching that they are leaving X game? They did the same thing with WoW when they “left” it but I can atleast see that it was for obvious clout because of the scandals, but what’s the deal with XIV and their rampant “I am quitting” campaign? Did they unironically think that they would receive the same clout they did for quitting WoW?
A few reasons. It generates views which means revenue. Secondly, they seem themselves as 'influencers'. They love the attention and concept of people following their viewpoint and directing them to action. They also hope that by doing so it forces change within a development team because of the negative PR.
a developer can also know better than his general playerbase what's "good for the game," i personally think FF14 does a great job at getting the general feel of what the playerbase wants out of jobs or minor gameplay changes (note before some spaz cites astrologian or kaiten removal at me yes they've fucked up before too)
[...]
that's right wowsisters
this game needs a makeover yass queeennn!!!!
Will I get bullied for queuing for Rival Wings without bothering to read some chud's "epic guide"? I absolutely refuse to engage with "Discord" in any capacity so I'll just be flying blind.
>why am I getting flamed for griefing in a game mode where one person can throw for the other 23?
I bet you instalock BJ and shoot missiles at players despite being told not to. Fuck off
>nooooo you HAVE to follow our Discord's rules you can't just play the mode you have to play it OUR way!!! >Rival Wings only EXISTS because of OUR Discord!!!!
Ok, enjoy getting blacklisted by your whole team for shooting missiles at players despite the fact that it does 0 damage and everyone is telling you to stop
Don't take any mechs or take Cruise Chaser and you'll be fine for the most part. If you're on the opposite team pick any the other two mechs and afk in base however.
as long as you dont take mechs then no-one will care, half the people playing are 2 int apes that are only there for tomes and have zero map awareness for objectives
>why am I getting flamed for griefing in a game mode where one person can throw for the other 23?
I bet you instalock BJ and shoot missiles at players despite being told not to. Fuck off
>BJ
you mean Oppressor, missile punch can 2 shot basically anyone if they dont have purify up
Yes I meant shooting missiles in the oppressor. But I also see retards instalock BJ despite clearly not know how to use it or even aim with the cannons
i usually find people dont go in BJ at all so i have too and I'd rather shit WHM lasers at half the enemy team
also i was wrong, WAR can survive 2 punches from BJ
Maybe because I'm esl but the fact that they translated the game so that characters speak like it's medieval times made it so unbearable
Also I don't get the "just power through ARR after that the game is great" - what?
Heavensward was okay at best, so was stormblood, shadowbringers, the supposed best expansion was so boring I quit like about 25% in
And I love final fantasy, just dont get the hype about this game
People that say the game is hard to understand just have to be bullshitting, there's more than enough context clues in normal speech to know what the hell they mean even within Urianger's SSShakespearean dialogue. The first time you see "chirurgeon" in dialogue should be confusing and then you see them heal in a cutscene and it shouldn't be confusing anymore.
If you don’t like the game by the campfire scene in HW please just fuck off back to WoW where I know you came from. You will do nothing but drag everyone down with your autism and demand that XIV replicate your dead furry game even more than it already has. Just leave and never come back, nobody wants you here
A few things that you already know the answer to: >Job design is flat out incompetent in an industry like this one. >The story is a slog no matter what stage of the game you're in >The journey to end-game is miserable >The stay at end-game is even more miserable >There is no character progression, development, or customization. None.
I recommend single-player games. Try Stranger of Paradise or something.
I liked all the single player elements like MSQ and grind solo. I hate the rest specially rp retards on Costa de sol, having stupid parties talking in discord like second life.
Ive been playing this game since release and not once have i stepped into a extreme / savage / ultimate raid or trial, OR any PvP content aside from afking in frontlines.
Not wasting time on your shitty minigames. The sooner they stop wasting dev time on content that 99% of the playerbase doesnt engage with and has no interest in, the better.
No, 14 has been varying amounts of good for various reasons throughout it's lifetime but the game is at it's lowest point so far in terms of quality and fun. People still play it in droves because sunk cost and also wanting to be in the club but the game itself isn't a reason for playing the game anymore
>pf is terrible at it >the design of the fight is terrible >LOLOL YOU GOT FILTERED LOL
nah piss off fight is great the first time you clear it, anything after that is trash
p11s is the most boring piece of shit ever created
you're delusional if you think that shit is good, you aren't fighting the music or the voice lines
get real
this tier was mediocre as fuck. once again the door boss is really fun, the first floor is also decent, and everything else ranges from ok (p10s) to boring (p11s) to "wow this fight is really unfun i actually miss high concept" (p12sp2).
good thing you'll always see at least 2 of them and they're during 2min windows, making them even better. also the music is way better than the second phase, holy fuck i'm still upset the second phase is a 30s loop that drones on and on.
i cleared week 1, tier was mediocre as was the other two tiers this expansion. ill give you p10s was fun to prog, but its just ok on reclears. i guess its funny joining pfs and seeing the dps blow themselves up on enumerations/spreads

Rich Campbell bros, we have to believe. He did not rape anyone and holes always seek to ruin successful mens' lives. He will be back stronger than ever, before the end of this year. He's going to easily get over 100K viewers for 7.0 MSQ.
XIV will usher in a new renaissance of Twitch culture when he's back. Trust. The. Plan.
I find it funny that I'm reading posts here and there about DT being better already simply for the amount of content outlined when that was the same sentiment I had for EW after SHB took a step back from SB's content pipeline. These people will just never learn.
Honestly in hindsight the fanfests leading up to EW were completely devoid of content, people were just automatically hyped for the "end of the saga!!" and completely ignored everything else
EW marketing had island sanctuary, new housing ward, criterion dungeons, revamped pvp, deep dungeon, and the return of Hildibrand and second ultimate. This was already more than SHB which just had Bozja. Of course, no one knew how IS and criterion would really turn out but expectations were high if they were going to essentially replace forays. EW is literally the same as listed, with something "new" but no specifics as to what the new battle content is yet.
>Island sanctuary
Not content >New ward
Not content >Criterion and variant
Wasted potential that is literally pointless after one day >Deep dungeon
Also squandered potential that refuses to evolve >Hildibrand
Not content >Second Ultimate
Not really attributed to EW since one was delayed from SHB purely due to incompetence and laziness
You may not like Bozja but what makes content important is longevity and it had massive longevity. In an interview Yoshida said in DT he plans to keep doing criterion, deep dungeon, a foray AND new battle content.
People are taking that interview out of context. He said they planned to keep making that kind of content and had ideas for it. That is NOT a promise that all of it will be in the next expansion. Saying "Yeah well do another foray" doesn't not explicitly mean one is coming in DT.
>island sanctuary,
wasted >new housing ward,
forgot they even added those. The woes of those not in ball-in-chains >criterion dungeons,
I liked it, a refresher from dungeons. Criterion being 3 extreme moron bosses back to back was not the way to do things >revamped pvp,
might be the only good thing EW brought >deep dungeon, and the return of Hildibrand and second ultimate
shit content, you can't even get party to do deep dungeon below level 30 anymore
Honestly in hindsight the fanfests leading up to EW were completely devoid of content, people were just automatically hyped for the "end of the saga!!" and completely ignored everything else
Watch as we reach the city of gold and someone merely goes "Oh hey Emet-Selch mentioned this" and that's the one and only reference to anything ancient related in the expansion but it's already enough for people to bitch about it.

It's going to be 100% Azem focused and you're a retard to think otherwise.
With how succesful that one swuimsuit they added in EW was, I'd be wierded out if DT doesn't get a bunch more for the players too.

Nice to see I am talking to an anon of culture.
All Dawntrail needs is a good 7.3 patch and shitty fate instances in boring brown drab ww1 trenches and people will herald it as the greatest FF expansion.
It's like reading ai generated posts in here sometimes. They almost feel like they know about the game but post some of the weirdest, dumbest shit that outs them.
Why the fuck is it like this so much recently? Did something happen?
Most people who criticize XIV dont play it and just get their hate news from third party sources. They're like "haha you didnt get a foray this time no content" but behind the screen they're like "wtf is a foray...either way lol I owned them"
>Is it worth it?
Not right now. Not at all.
The latest expac and current patch was very lacking in pretty much what you play it for.
Parsing and Mod-beasting gays are the only ones who play right now.
It's riddled with script abusing scum and blatant gayry.
The community is actually mindbroken and will attack you for bringing it up.
Zepla is hated because she said it herself. This old bitch plays the game for a long time and stays subbed forever, and now even she is speaking up about the lack of content.
It really puts it into perspective how someone who literally shills your game turns back on it because of how fucking bad it's become.
Island sanctuary is such a bad joke
Criterion is worthless. It had potential. They didn't realize it.
Ultimate sucks dick and the glam looks like pixel pizza
Savaga is just stressful and finding a good group is migraine inducing.
PvP is laughably riddled with fucking cheaters. Do they get banned? No.
The GMs aren't active. You as a player are somehow responsible for the game's integrity.
XIV deserves to fucking die at this point with how lacking in attention it is.
Parsing is really boring this tier. Just sac for kill time and roll the dice, no fancy stuff because you just kill on standard 2mins. Ultimates this expansion though were amazing.
I am using splatoon for most if not all Savage fights. I don't tell anyone, I don't stream, I don't complain 'no content' I keep it to myself, it just makes some of the encounters much more chill.
You install the addon, then you go to the git and add the scripts for whatever mechanics you need to the addon. Lets say the boss does a "find the safe spot!" mechanic (shocker), Splatoon will paint the area the mechanic will hit during the cast so you can comfortably go wherever you need.
I used to Savage raid up to Shadowbringers and gave up because of the time commitments and FC drama bullshit, I might start doing this in PF for my Savage gear, but I'm on the fence about using mods. I know they're used a lot more than people will admit to, but I just think personally once I cross the threshold I'll be too tempted and never go back. There is something to it knowing that all the fights, all the raids, everything I've done I've done off my own ability to learn and play and not relying on tools (apart from other party members).
I get you, pretty much in the same boat as you. But the mechanics just got too annoying to deal with and I didn't want to leave during prog with them having to start with a new player. Can stomach the bs way more now.
People act like streamers are the problem but the actual problem are you fucking retards who obsess over them. You're the trash plaguing XIV threads. Get some mother fucking self awareness.
I do wonder if some of them are even real. I've been playing for 9 years and have never even heard of that llama guy. Someone could just invent random ecelebs for this game and I'd never know.
It's great but you have to power through ARR. It works as a worldbuilding expansion but it pays off in the end. From Heavensward and onward the plot really picks up a lot. FF14 is my favorite RPG story.
Shadowbringers is such a gem but man, they make you earn it
no
WoW is dead. Accept it.
It's the best MMORPG on the market.
>roastie hates it
that means it's good
Game is healing. Cancer is being cut out.
Pretty much.
The game has plenty of problems by itself, but the absolute cancer that rooted itself into the playerbase needs to be removed first.
She's right and you all know it. It's the same formulaic content loop for the last several expansions now and this one has even less relevant and midcore content. The majority of people actually playing right now are just latefags progging something. There is absolutely fucking nothing to do right now. Yoshi needs to free us from the wheel.

If you like WoW-shit themeparks and only care about the singleplayer questing experience it's fine. Althrough, I wouldn't say it's "worth it" past the free trial unless you really like the trial.
Have you ever thought to yourself "I'm having fun with this MMO but what I'd really like is a fuck ton of grown men pretending to be women and openly ERPing in general chat. A copious amount of open pedophiles would be really cool too"? If the answer is yes then you will enjoy FF14.
Can you block the pedos?
Not without the use of 3rd part plugins. These are against TOS but as long as you don't say you have it its usually ok.
But the devs are totally fine with almost completely naked child like characters and so are many of the most disturbed players. Stay in this thread long enough and they will no doubt start posting their pornography.
Yeah once I resub I have to look into those. It's nice that you can at least do it.
If you get penumbra and open the plugins menu its called "visability". You can just target every pedo and made them disappear forever. Just don't mention that you've done it and you should be ok.
You're talking about all of the pictures of modded content that you will never see in the game unless you use the program that lets you share mods with people you know and link up with to see them and vice versa?

What's the implication here because I prefer people that keep it to private setting over pride parade Balmungtards that do it openly I'm trolling? How does that even bother you?
The problem is biggest on US because we even have Japanese coomers coming over to Balmung to do stuff. If you want to put this to a stop SE needs to do three things;
Ban mods completely
Ban anyone for any public ERP, even just advertisements and search info
Crack down on adult clubs
>because we even have Japanese coomers coming over to Balmung to do stuff.
that's enough shitposting for one thread anon, your hands are shaking
I'm not shitposting I'm unironically being serious I know because I've met them they have their own LS just for it.
oh no!? a linkshell!?
Seems like you're genuinely, sincerely, upset with me? There's no nastiness when I say sorry Anon I don't want to enable you or these people and I don't want the game to be Second Life.
Nobody cares what you want, is the thing.
>He says as he replies to me
Then why even start this comment chain in the first place?
If you're serious and you cannot fathom that nobody cares about you trying to gatekeep the game through a Ganker thread, then you've completely wasted your time in an argument about nothing
If you're not serious and this is your idea of entertainment, only one or two people were stupid enough to reply to you in the first place and you couldn't resist taking the low hanging fruit
You will be in the next thread defending a completely untenable position either way
What on earth are you talking about you schizo? You got upset about me for wanting to deal with the pedos and weirdos on Balmung. How the fuck is that gatekeeping? No I think the issue here is you're a seething Second Life gay that took personal offence at what I said.
You get a 4/10 from me overall, you'd have gotten a five but you cucked out with the whole "I don't understand anything all of a sudden but also you are clearly my fated enemy I was ranting about earlier" angle
>Continues to rant in schizo babble
moron, you are not an oppressed minority for having to have sex behind a bedroom door
Stay out of the Quicksand you fucking coomer.
It's a fun video game with a ton of good content but don't expect to no-life it.
the endgame is actually the worst part of the mmo right now, even the raids, which is supposed to be biggest endgame feature of ffxiv is in a pitiful state.
I was going to say wait until the new expansion. There will be a lot more people playing making the MSQ progress more bearable since it's nice seeing other new players doing the same quests as you, and there are more older players willing to help out newer players.
Since you already started though I'll just say what everybody says: the story doesn't pick up until HW.
After HW the story goes uphill until it peaks with the best FF story in shadowbringers. After that it's EW which has some high highs and some very low lows dipping into the current storyline which is some god awful filler garbage until the next expansion.
As for content, the game has several mini "end-games" after each expansion. It's cool. Once you beat the story for ARR you get to do a bunch of new level 50 dungeons and raids and unlock some new classes. It's a good place to take a break and enjoy evergreen content that people always do because they're forced to do it for their dailies.
After that it's back to the story grind until you get to HW. Once you beat HW's story you unlock a bunch of level 60 dungeons and raids and a bunch of other cool shit. And then once you do all that the cycle repeats itself until level 90 and soon level 100.
Then once you get to endgame and exhaust all the cool normal content, your choices are
>enjoy raiding
if you like raiding, you're in luck. AWESOME raids.
if you don't like raiding then...
>do weeklies
you're fucked! this shit is boring!!! everybody nice who helped you on your journey is stuck here because there is nothing else to fucking do but groom new players into this vicious cycle!!!
or
>quit the game
congrats, you played ff14 like a singleplayer game like everybody told you to do and moved on with your life!
This but EW was peak.
EW launch? Definitely. Leveling Reaper in bojza and waiting for Chi led to some of the most fun public interactions in the game to date. Going through MSQ and witnessing the final chapter in the story, experiencing it with everybody was so magical.
6.1 was such an awesome start to the post-patch content with the PVP changes. REAL changes and lots of people to engage and play with.
DSR was one of the best spectacles in the game and a real goal that many wanted to attain
and then...nothing. the game died not with a bang but with a whimper
Yeah the post-patches... I try not to remember those.
>EW launch? Definitely.
It fell off so hard. Newfound adventure looked so promising, and then it was back to DRAGONS, VOID, REFLECTIONS, ZENOS. Not to mention the lack of an exploratory zone .
Dawntrail looks like what I expected out of these patches, let's see how long it takes before we are back to the usual stuff.
I didn't even care about going back to big stakes again, I just fucking hated that it was all about the scions again. It was such a bittersweet ending to EW where they all part their ways that gets completely ruined by seeing them half an hour later again.
Yeah. I knew they would not be gone forever, the disbanding was just a ruse after all. But they did say they were going their separate ways for a while, I didn't expect to see them until the next expansion stuff started. I love them, but a break would have been great (absence makes the heart grow fonder after all), and an opportunity to give some other characters the spotlight.
They're probably doing the ShB thing again where throughout the MSQ you meet them at various zones.
That would have been way better if they had not appeared during the post EW patches.
I was fairly certain Y'shtola would stick around but am surprised everyone else, especially the twins are still around. Granted, I am happy no one died. Maybe they will do something cool with the characters now..
Will she do something else other than exposition or having another fake death scene? Or is it too much to ask?
Exploring the old temple in ShB with her was probably the most adventurekino we have ever had. Same for the revisit during the ShB patches. She can work it is just that she gets choosen for the most retarded shit in the MSQ or written out entirely. The probably know she will be the one permanent party member, being the face of the game and all, so they want to take it slow, but I agree the fakout deaths are inexcusable at this point.
>Expecting character death after shitwalker
>claps for 6th emet revival
fuck off shadowmoron. Your fujoshit writer is cancer.
I think it is great no one died. They could send some of them on their own way but in general I don't wish any of the major characters to die. XIV already has a hilariously high body count compared to other FF games. Wonder if people complained about XI never having anyone die as well, because truly not one of your allies dies there.
Fucking no one ever dies in FF games. Usually at most you have one main character death, 3-4 side character deaths. In XIV we've lost like half the party along the way. I don't know where this trove of "BUT NO ONE EVER DIEEEEES" retards come from.
Hell, they just tried to do the "any character can die and they will often" GoT thing on XVI and instead everyone's shitting on it relentlessly for it. Probably the very same doomposters that then come here and say the exact opposite.
To be fair, FF2 is hillariously dark and murder happy, but no one realizes or cares because 2 is just a really bad game in general.
>I don't know where this trove of "BUT NO ONE EVER DIEEEEES" retards come from.
Yeah I don't know. XIV is a feel good story at heart and killing any of the remaining Scions would shit all over its legacy at this point. Yes Thancred's arc is over but that doesn't mean he can't start a new one.
>Hell, they just tried to do the "any character can die and they will often" GoT thing on XVI and instead everyone's shitting on it relentlessly for it.
The damage GoT did to fantasy in general can never be healed again.
the problem with 2 is you never really get attached to them and by halfway its kinda just like
>oh heres the next dude to die a dungeon or two later wowee
>The damage GoT did to fantasy in general can never be healed again.
honestly doing shit like what happened to Arenveld makes more sense to me. You don't completely remove the character forever without asspull revivals but still put weight to whats happening with people get permanent injuries
>You don't completely remove the character forever without asspull revivals but still put weight to whats happening with people get permanent injuries
it would have done so much for Y'shtola if they would have shown her being legit inconvenienced/upset at losing her real eyesight. Her struggling to write a letter or spilling water because she didn't see a mug, breaking down for a second in an unseen moment would have had a way bigger impact on her entire perception. I know it is not how she wants to be seen, and her cope with grief is to just bury it and work harder but right now it legit seems being blind is an upgrade to most.
Maybe if they hadn't hidden most reactions about her being blind behind side content and going-out-of-your-way-to-talk-to-her dialogues between quest steps.
THE STUPID REDHEAD CAT SURVIVED ENOUGH BULLSHIT ALONGSIDE THE OTHER CAT
How much bullshit has the WoL survived.
You do know that the whole "disbanding" thing was explained in-game as the Scoins wanting to get away from being celebrities and going back to being more-or-less regular people, right? Nowhere was it said that they were going to disappear forever so another batch of buttbuddies could come in and fill their roles.
>There will be a lot more people playing making the MSQ progress more bearable since it's nice seeing other new players doing the same quests as you,
What? no, this is by far the worst part of doing the MSQ, seeing tons of players in front of an npc to take the quest totally kills the inmersion. I would like the game to have an option to hide players by default because in Endwalker last zone for sure it kills the mood seeing a male roe with a maid outfit around.
Nah, just play New World instead.
>Nah, just play New World instead sir
>SIR SIR PLAY NEW WORLD BLOODY BENCHOD !!
>DO NOT REDEEEM THE FINAL FANTASY BASTARD BITCH!!!!!!
good morning sir
Are all bi cucks who play this game psycho? I can't join an FC without finding that one couple who is bi sexual and "looking for a bf for the guy teehee". the female is always fat and into witchcraft and the guy is just as fat and has no backbone. also terrible at the game. she is a healer and he is a tank but both can't into mechanics. Seeing the word "bi" is an instant blacklist at this point.
I sometimes wonder if I'm playing a different game than you.
I fucking wish I was playing your version. I just want to grind moogle tomes and play the fucking game but there is always some alphabet whore hitting me up or some couple wanting a threesome. its happened to me 3 times and I've only been playing the game for a year. I can't tell them to fuck off because then I will be canceled from the entire game because its the BEST WHOLESOME COMMUNITY EVER. every fucking server is full of these fags and trannies. I don't give a shit about your sexuality or what you claim to be, just let me play the damn game
It has never happened to me, but I'm playing a male character so that might have something to do with it.
>I can't tell them to fuck off
Why would you even want to respond?
Right click -> blacklist
It's that easy.
What server? You just might be a shit magnet.
Been playing for years on several realms and I have never seen anything of what you people constantly complain about.
Of course. Because they have been making it up for years. These retarded doomfags have nothing to actually criticize the game about so all they do is falseflag as real players and make up shit that actual players will instantly know is bullshit but new players might not. All in a vain attempt to prop up their dead furry game that they unironically believe they are helping.
They do it for free btw
Literally had 2 hrothgars in my expert roulette calling the portrait system homophobic because it reset on him and he was wearing all rose pink dyed casual attire. Healer had to stop halfway through a boss fight because "she was pregnant and the baby kicked the shit out of her". The fags said "uwu". I just want to fucking play the game man.
Come on, doomfag. Atleast try to make it sound believable
Some NA thing?
We need to burn out the bad that is fucking streamers. Another one making a fucking public statement about how they're burnt out with XIV
retard, streamers don't get burnt out on games. they're all pivoting to variety streaming/fotm games because those provide far more views and engagement than current xiv, which is on a downward spiral
All because some hag got some Traction for making a crying shitpost that her game didn't have enough fujobait in it this year.
>streamers don't get burnt out on games. they're all pivoting to variety streaming/fotm games
xiv didn't have streamers before asmongoloid basically created the xiv streamer scene with his arrival. What xiv did have was small time youtube video makers. Now that the wow refugee rush and EW hype are over, those youtube fags that became full time streamers are grasping at ways to maintain any relevance.
They need to understand that FFXIV can’t have streamers like that, people only like to watch for the reaction to story bits then leave.
Because people would rather play the game than watch someone else do it.
Huh?
not another one....

The absolute state
People try to stream XIV the same way they streamed WoW and it just doesn't work.
Is it true that Endwalker doesn't have any midcore content?
Unreal -> Ex -Turn 1 and 2
Midcore get catered to in every single patch
gonna add on to the other anon by including blue mage into midcore stuff. it's more like a blend of semi-midcore and midcore but it's definitely not hardcore considering it's a lot easier to clear old savage raids with blue mage.
what this game really is missing is interesting casual stuff, which I think zepla is more appropriate for. I wouldn't really call someone that can't even play dancer properly a midcore player.
There's Unreals, Extremes and imo Savage Reclears.
Not gonna say Criterion because its not worth doing.
She probably doesn't have a static so progging through Savage through PF is gonna be hell
The problem is that there isn't any content for people who just don't like the DDR encounter design. There IS designspace for different combat, but the devs just double down on increasingly shitty mechanics in every type of content. It just depends on how much of the inane bullshit you can stomach. Devs are just too married to making fights as unfun as possible to raise difficulty.
On the other hand that's literally always been the type of fight design and the times they do try changing things slightly people bitch and moan.
>there’s no content for people who don’t like playing the game
Ganker is such an intelligent board
If you don't like a realm reborn then stop playing, it doesn't get better.
The chud mmo addicts will tell you it becomes the greatest story in video game history, but it's the same shitty wow clone filled with light novel cliches and some of the worst gameplay I've ever experienced all the way through.
The VN is the best part of the game. The casual content sucks and the raids are miserable.
Doomposter, they put you in the game.
This is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like this. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. This character could not possibly be anymore me. It's me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that this character is me. This character is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that this character is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and this character side by side, you'd see no difference. I can safely look at this character every day and say "Yup, that's me". I can practically see this character every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to this character. I chuckle softly as I'm assured everyday this character is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I've found my identity with this character and I know my place in this world. It's really quite funny how similar this character is to me, it's almost like we're identical twins. When I first saw this character, I had an existential crisis. What if this character was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if this character actual became aware of my existence? Did this character have the ability to become self aware itself?
>his desire to talk to real people
>he wanted a MMO but got a single player game with a chat lobby
Playable rabbits (not Viera) when
And assmongolian too tied to the failure of criterion also final boss endwalker was Twitter oh how smart are the devs being self concious like kingdom hearts 2.9 at hercules world...
The combat and job design fucking sucks goobbue dick its no wonder most of the playerbase would rather chat on discord in limsa than touch it.
>no class customization whatsoever, once you pick a class you will playing them in exactly the same way for all content
>class design amounts to repetitive, deterministic damage rotations, with no other ways to interact with mobs
>longwinded, cliche ridden and boring story where you play the role of both a mary sue and a deus-ex machina
>the poorest quest design i have ever seen in a MMO, you spend most of your time teleporting to npcs to watch cutscenes
>devs are afraid to innovate, so you end up with rehashed content and rigid gameplay, the game hasn't changed since 2013 except for stripping everything down
>absolutely nothing about combat has proper tactile feedback, animation locks and poor netcode bog down everything

>almost everything is instanced
>vertical progression from start to finish, barely even an rpg

>open world becomes an irrelevant lobby pretty quickly, and you barely explore it during the story either
>all content except the very end game is mindnumbingly easy and even then savage raids aren't too difficult compared to other MMOs
>very little raid content, period. 4 bosses in a major patch is laughable
>small group content (4 mans) offers absolutely zero meaningful gameplay at any stage in the game
>dungeons are singular long hallway simulators with mobs appearing at the exact same point everytime, no challenge of deviation whatsoever
>faux-friendly community that is petri-fucking-fied of being reported and banned for upsetting someones fragile little ego. criticism is "toxic" here
>The crafting system that gets praised so much doesn't even make anything that affects gameplay beyond basic food buffs and dps increase potions
>cash shop just as predatory and greedy as other MMOs, with mounts being extra expensive
big if true
how is it big if everything said is old news at this point
is it old news if the problems are still current?
aids and cancer are old news, but that doesn't mean they aren't current problems
Fuck class customization, you get shit where the favorite class you like is utter shit tier and you get locked out of content because your class sucks until you change it.
>dev adds +200rdps to the job 1 week later in a hotfix
>problem goes away
that's not really a problem when you can play every job on a single character, is it?
WELCOME TO BLUE MAGE DUMPSTER SIR
I can't tell you enough how happy I am to see more and more streamers and other ~~*(influencers*~~) quit this fucking game.
I've played so many MMOs in the past and XIV's e-celebs are the worst dogshit I've seen in my life.
Not a single bit of creativity, not a single bit of personality, not even an ounce of fucking entertainment. It's all glorified react channels and background noise, utterly devoid of meaning and entertainment.
I fucking sincerely hope all of them fucking off will lead to better player content in the future. I'll be happiest if MrHappy quits forever too so that his strats can stop shitting up everything.
I love how they die like dogs after the MSQ is over.
>MSQ Streams over
>Get to watch someone's life crumble when they realize how little they mattered
>MSQ ends.
>They realize nobody was there to actually watch them, people just wanted to relive the MSQ again with someone experiencing it for the first time.
Pretty much the only one that escaped this was Preach because he actually got interested in other FF's and remembered the community aspect of the game.
Still a fag enabler though.
>And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling simps!
>Pretty much the only one that escaped this was Preach because he actually got interested in other FF's and remembered the community aspect of the game.
kek. I find this extremely funny, because the "community" aspect of the game amounted to idling in wards and listening to twitch DJs.
Preach's a turbo normie and he constantly goes "Eeww, anime boobs"
He's removing FF merch?
Nah the image was from before he got really into it.
>it's over
are you guys done with your island?
Inching along. Keep taking month long breaks because IT IS FUCKING BORING
ALL IT DOES IS MAKE ME WANT TO EMULATE A HARVEST MOON GAME
IT MADE ME SHUT THE GAME OFF AND CLEAN MY ROOM BECAUSE IT FEELS LESS LIKE A CHORE THAN THIS PIECE OF SHIT
Which artbook is the best one?
Where do I get them? (For free ofc.)
>exploratory missions
>but they're not FATEs
yes they are
>but they're harder
>still fates
>but they have more stuff
>still fates
>but there's an alliance raid attached to them
>still fates
Don't know why they can't add this shit to MSQ zones. Get rid of hunts. Add critical engagements to main zones.
so they'd be hunts but they're shown on the map?
NTA but they do have them, you never did any of the world fates like Odin, Behemoth, or Ixion?
those things are rare as fuck. I've never seen Ixion, but I'm not part of a Hunt FC, but I bet it is all discord shit now. Fuck discord.
Savage is just fates in an instance
Finished 6.0 yesterday
Holy based
What a way to end Zenos' arc
That, I can't deny.
>every single shitty duty is ilvl synced
>endsinger isn't
You probably didn't even see phase 2
Should I stream my RP sessions?
Absolutely. Catch that ban.
No, they didnt manage to close the main quest story good now its fujo pandering with ancient shit as villians like wow
Yes.
Zamn, 1.0 was like this?
Gameplay not but i doubt even the reshade gonna reach the graphic authism of 1.0
EW gave us:
Tanks:
>1 more button to press during inner release (True to all tanks)
Healers:
>A true ultimate healing ability and a 60s job-customized oGCD support skill
Melees:
>Monk - Nothing, upgraded skills
>Dragoon - 1 oGCD, upgraded skills
>Ninja - 2 followup GCD skills
>Sam - 1 followup GCD skill
>Reaper - doesn't count, new to EW
Ranged:
>Mach - 1 more drill-like weaponskill
>Bard - 1 more raidwide supp ogcd
>Dnc - 3 followup skills
Mage:
>SMN - lmao
>RDM - One more finisher (Uo to 3 now)
>BLM - oGCD to grant polyglot.
What can you possibly expect for your job?
A FUCKING LIMIT BREAK FOR BLUE MAGE
uhmmmm sweetie, thats Final Sting
Yes, I love this Limit Break, I SHOULD KILL MYSELF NOW
Enough from the power creep!
>RDM - One more finisher (Uo to 3 now)
And magic barrier.
They also fixed the aoe rotation, the aoe buff, changed manafication and how much mana you need for the combo.
>And magic barrier.
Forgot magic barrier was 86. Feels like it shouldn't be
>They also fixed blah blah blah
Not new abilities, that was just to streamline the job. You dont think about those while leveling RDM to max
They were significant though, but yeah, it's not something you "look forward to" while leveling.
I hope Dawntrail gives RDM more support stuff, but I expect a 4th finisher.
NIN got a useless addition to Doton and a incredibly niche gap closer, along with a on button Huton in case it drops. I legit wouldn't know what to expect other than another big damage OGCD to weave unless the combat gets some new system to interact with in general.
>along with a on button Huton in case it drops.
Here's something you might have not noticed:
Huraijin is level 60
To add to it, Raiju was a very controversial skill when added and it still is a weird button bloat that became "use forked all the time unless you need to be at max melee range"
The fact that you have to use it once it is up is just weird. If you could keep the stack it would be fine and you could gapclose with it, now it is useful in the 5% of cases where you have to disengage AND can cast a raiton during it. Not that you need it since you already have the best movement skill in the game with Shukuchi.
bruh blm got paradox in ew which is honestly one of the best things they ever gave to blm
meanwhile
>smn
>rdm
>blm got paradox in ew
besides meme paradox rotation which, iirc got culled in a patch, Paradox is just Fire 1/Blizz 1 upgrade.
Sure its a nice upgrade over the shitty fireball you had since ARR, but I hardly call it the best thing in EW
bullshit, ice paradox hard carries transpose lines, shb blm looks like a fucking desert in terms of transpose usage compared to ew
BLM is at the peak of its design in EW, it's a truly beautiful job
No one used the meme rotation, you got memed. And I don't think it even got "culled", they just gave Fire 4 a few more potency.
if you don't understand how getting an extra instant cast inside umbral ice changes blm's gameplay, you don't play blm
This, Paradox is the big one even though it seems to "just" upgrade one of your previous spells if you don't play the job.
DT upgrades are Paradox 3 upgrade for Fire/Blizzard 3 and Amplifier upgrading to giving you 3 free Xenos instead of just 1 polyglot stack.
Please look forward to it.
What possibly could they add not only to existing classes but to new classes? Sage and Reaper just feel like streamlined SCH and melee MCH.
Healers got it nice 80 to 90.
I am legit waiting to see how they will eventually fuck up AST (again)
>eventually
Didn't they already say they'd rework it along with DRG in DT or did I just assume that since they rework AST in every expansion at least once.
What is there to fuck up any more? The class has nothing it had on release that made it stand out, cards are entirely a non entity, no sect switching at all and the additional systems like Lord and Lady we got are just a complete waste. I guess Star and Macrocosm are able to cheese certain mechanics..
>cards are entirely a non entity
The old system and the new card system are not really point anymore since they made AOE balance into horoscope.
What actually triggers the fuck out of the dev team is that AST is hell to play on consoles and the absolute necessity of macro'ing the "play card" to usable levels.
>What actually triggers the fuck out of the dev team is that AST is hell to play on consoles and the absolute necessity of macro'ing the "play card" to usable levels.
There is nothing wrong with having a Job that plays better on mouse and keyboard than on controller.
There's nothing wrong with new SMN.
correct
There's nothing wrong with grey parsing in ultimates, a clear is a clear and you're a Legend just the same.
Correct.
correct
correct
Needs a new summons and some casting its making reedmage a joke
Seriously. I would have no problem with SMN if the summons had like 5 sec casting time to feel like an actual summon and not just "throw it out of the book"
I love updated summoner, it’s a real summoner now
EW was the most controversial based on changes too:
>PLD rework
>Monk to this day still fight over double solar openers
>Dragoon Mirage Dive button shenanigans
>Ninja Raiju bullshit
>Sam lost Kaiten
And the worst
>Selene became a pet glamour
Forgot
>Afflatus Misery being a DPS loss
Not anymore.
became a pet glamour
That was Shadowbringers though, unless you really want to pretend that it doesn't count since you still had an extra button that only applied a different color to your fairy.
Endwalker is just a continuation of Shadowbringers job design, that expansion was the origins of the garbage we have now.
What is their goal with the changes? What is the goal of making pets non-entities, or removing certain support features of other classes?
It's easier to balance. That's the only reason.
Even now, if you queue Whispering Dawn and Fey Illumination one after the other, your fairy will sperg out and not cast the last one.
They cannot, and will not, fix pets. Beastmaster will literally not ever be a thing
And that's after they made the fairy more responsive in EW. I can't wait until they remove pets altogether and we only have to deal with new people asking for a pet job.
Then again BLU is pretty wonky too so if they wanted to make a janky beastmaster limited job then sure go for it. Just pretend that the pets being hilariously unresponsive is a part of the minigame.
>Even now, if you queue Whispering Dawn and Fey Illumination one after the other, your fairy will sperg out and not cast the last one.
How? The Fairy isn't even a thing in the game world any more, it might as well just be a character animation. Why are they doing inane graphics updates when mechanical stuff like that still isn't fixed?
>it might as well just be a character animation
it is, in fact you can test it out, cast fey illumination then whispering dawn and dissipation 2 seconds after and you may not see whispering dawn
>Why are they doing inane graphics updates when mechanical stuff like that still isn't fixed?
Contrary to these threads schizo beliefs, people who actually play the game are not the core audience of XIV anymore. The primary audience are grifters, people who exclusive play for the MSQ, and those who ship their female WoL with Thancred, Graha, Zenos, or Emet.
> Beastmaster will literally not ever be a thing
It'll happen. T-trust me! Lllllook forward t-to it. .. .
Come home white boy
Wear your sheep armor with pride
I don't get where they're going with Scholar at all. It used to have full control of their fairy, being able to use the fairy ogcds mid cast AND manually embrace people. Then they took both away in ShB and we got awful ghosting because now you try to cram ogcds during a bio/ruin 2 window. I just gave up on the damn class partway through ShB because of how annoying it felt to play compared to SB. At least Astro has some autism every 2min with cards, but that's definitely getting nuked because controller players can't do all those weaves as easily as kb+m.
I get healers aren't played as much but holy fuck making everything WHM-lite wasn't the solution it made the problem worse.
most fairy control got taken away because of pet unresponsiveness and the fact most scholars did not actually use any of that control (there wasn't need to)
>Selene became a pet glamour
This was based though, literally a targeted attack on trannies.
I actually play BRd and BLM and they're wildly different from ShB
Why do you talk shit about jobs you don't play?
>BRD is different
No it isn't. pressing Radiant Finale (Coda dont matter) together with Battle Voice every 2 minutes doesn't make it different.
And now they forced you to be at 80+ gauge to use Apex Arrow
go ahead, explain what the rotation was in shb if you actually played it
and hows does dots and songs work now for bard?
They streamlined dots. You received nothing 80 to 90 except for a party buff that plays exactly the same as Battle Voice.
Tell me how 80 bard changes from a 90 bard.
>Tell me how 80 bard changes from a 90 bard.
your original seethe was about how EW gave us little changes, now tell me what was different about the rotation for bard in shb vs endwalker?
Also how do you play your songs now compared to before? What do you mean by the dots are streamlined now?
You're the one seething that it is wrong. Tell me how it is wrong instead of spewing "nuh uh it isn't, you just dont play it"
>Tell me how it is wrong instead of spewing "nuh uh it isn't, you just dont play it"
Why can't you explain? BRD is a simple job and somehow you played it but can't articualte on how its so samey to ShB BRD. And what's the point of spoonfeeding you for you to use in your future doomposting?
>nuh uh you cant explain it, so i won't, you're just doomposting, i'm right you're wrong
oh so you're just a shitposter, I actually gave you attention and took you serious. My mistake
Sure, I'll accept your concession. And please don't talk shit if you only played CT raids daily with all your 90 jobs.
My man endwalker was super impactful for BLM the job is literally dogshit to play when you get synced and dont have Paradox
imo it's the perfect time to start playing, if you play regularly you can be done with all relevant content (current savage, all ultimates, bozja, eureka and even some fishing) before next expansion drops so you don't have to unsub until xpac launches (my case)
Bro the free trial includes the base game + first expansion and next month will include the second expansion as well. Also unlimited playtime.
ARR(base game) is long and at times tedious but it's still good and the ending is fantastic.
>https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Zodiac_Weapons/Quest
Questline that makes you do group content, incorporates crafting, FATE, dungeons, 24mans and trials, and the community hates it because the Atma and the light step were minor inconveniences. After finishing pic related in XI I can truly say that the ARR (and HW) relics were the perfect fit for XIV and were absolutely not bad.
>group content
Hard Trials were between normal and extreme, and could be reasonably done with DF. They were mostly hard because people sucked and had no idea what they were doing at max level. You will never get that kind of content/experience back.
>incorporates crafting
SE is deathly afraid to make Gil have any value, so today it would be a non step, unless it were items that couldn't be put into the AH in which case socially awkward people would be upset.
>FATE
Yeah I guess. Would be something to reinvigorate the overworld, incorporating FATE into the relic. Or maybe hunts, or both.
>dungeons, 24mans
Not really needed from a dev standpoint since all the old dungeons can be done via trust now. It would be interesting to have 'extreme' dungeons that are scaled so that you absolutely can not pull wall to wall and have to pay attention to mechanics. I feel that would be good relic content.
I think most systems you named are just not feasible any more so I suppose the devs just removed it and put the relic behind a minor amount of generic tomes. Which is sad, since having something to grind across the expansion was nice.
>Or maybe hunts
Please no. Too many hunt retards who go apeshit for whatever reasons. Don't give them more power.
You got to wonder if people would cry more or less if instead of 1500 tomes you had to do stuff like light farms or books.
I miss when Thavnair Bustier was the only slutglam. Now every gay in the game is wearing modern clothing.
the OG slutglam is the coeurl bikini anon
Just be a cutscene skipper. The story only gets good at Shadowbringers anyways, so I'd recommend just doing that.
IMAGINE BELIEVING THAT WAR IS THE WORST TANK
holy shit some of you fags need to play the game
Do people say that? Its the best tank and healer in dungeon content.
what did the voices inside your head tell you about war?
they are all the same you retard
Endgame is shit, don't bother.
Post TOP clear.
He is a bottom
>wasting time on the worst ult
NGMI
post DSR clear
I would, but then it will become "um sweetie you didn't clear it week one it doesn't count you don't really play the game." Unfortunate to see these threads descend into a raiding rat race like WoW, but I suppose that's my fault for expecting better.
as long as you cleared it during the expansion it released it should be good, specially DSR
>during the expansion
Nope, it's already fucked thanks to BIS dungeon gear and relics
I dont honor any Ultimate clears that weren't done during the patch it launched with. Sorry thats the rules.
post your clears then
I didn't clear it. That doesn't mean I can't also dishonor others.
>t.
>I didn't clear it. That doesn't mean I can't also dishonor others.
I cleared both on patch and I definitely judge on patch, on expansion and post expansion differently, especially TOP. If the DT ultimates are the same there's no way I'm taking someone who did TOP with the relic, dungeon gear, better food and pots, well established strats and AM crutches if I can help it.
A clear is a clear is latefag cope.
>Relic
1 materia worth currently, will only be significant after dungeon gear
>Food and pots
Currently like 1 det tier
>AM
Manually marking was so easy if you had someone else call out the dodge. I did it as a melee with no problem during Omega burst.
hi myon, gay
Based, this. If you didn't clear in one month you shouldn't be taking on ultimates, they're just not for you and you're wasting everyone's time trying to fit in where you don't belong.
Let's be real here
If you're not in the first 20 clears of an ultimate, you didn't really beat it
It just shows you could copy what other people did, very shameful
This but unironically, relying on VODs is no different than relying on sims.
>I didn't clear it. That doesn't mean I can't also dishonor others.
>I didn't clear it. That doesn't mean I can't also dishonor others.
Its not SB anymore. Powercreep is so severe that ultimates don't count after their initial patch anymore. This is primarily why ult culture took a sharp turn for the worse in SHB; a lot of players went back to get an easy ucob or wr clear, and wow transplants cleared tea in 5.58 thinking they are hot shit.
It's exactly the same as usual. Ult releases, gets slapped with food, pots and a couple job buffs next even but is still similarly tuned then it gets destroyed by dungeon gear next odd. It's not that significant, you just require maybe 1 less mit and can afford 1 death on places you couldn't afford them before. Not even close to cob where you can recover with full party weakness and damage down.
Post DSR clear then.
Hah.
After the interview with gamespot, I have a sinking feeling we are going to 5.15 in Dawntrail.
>4th level 50 dungeon in a row for the roulette

so ff is dead
now what
Now you go buy FF16 and all it's DLCs.
Send YoshiP in fulltime XVI, let someone who enjoys XIV work on it. Make the Fujo the head writer and order her to have equal rights for non homo characters. Have anyone who designs content in XIV play XI and have them complete a REMA weapon, take what you learned from that and introduce it to XIV.
I'll quit XIV for good if they introduce obligatory XI tier grind.
thats ok because I will pick the game up if they add it.
XI is still right there anon

Yeah bad game, leave, never come back, especially not when the new expansion hits. WoW is much better, and did you check out GW2? That is also a game!
The faster we can get rid of streamers the better.
DOOM DOOM DOOM DOOM
I WANT YOU IN MY ROOM
LETS DOOM AGAIN TOGETHER
THE GAME IS DEAD FOREVER
6.5 soon bros. Can't wait to see CGI Zero in the full trailer too.
The way people on these threads act towards ecelebs is so weird, they're so easy to ignore yet at the same time people put them on a pedestal and are ready to kick them down when they don't say good things about the game. No one ingame treats their thoughts as gospel.
lolcow schizo esque behavior
No one wants "FF14 saved my life" grifters either.
It's especially weird because FFXIV threads and even /wowg/ were nothing but surrogate chatrooms for Asmongold's stream when he was playing it. And every time some streamer would start playing FFXIV they'd post it in threads. Now that Asmon and ton of other streamers dropped the game, they're acting like they never cared about streamers. Biggest cope campaign I've seen in a while
Not at all, there are plenty of oldfags that hate streaming culture in general and quite frankly I really miss the old community. WoWfugees came in ARR but with each passing expansion the following waves had people that were of such a poor quality and calibre of person that it made the community worse. Shadowbringers is the straw that broke the camels back with all the stream grifters and secondaries coming in to act like leeches. Unironically I hope the riot MMORPG isn't shit so people who enjoy FF for what it is remain whilst those that are here for clout, money, stream grift, or FOTM move on to something else. Zepla's criticism are 100% accurate it's just that they're coming from a complete grifter.
The pink chud is here
Ummm did you just seriously imply something negative about Endwalker? Read the room, dude. No negativity in the dojo, Endwalker is perfect.
My chakras are sensing negative energies in this thread... Doomfag united with Big Barry... such power... quick, before its too late, you have to
>game is soon to be free to play up to Stormblood
what are the ramifications of this change to you Anon?
Boy I can't wait when they make ShB free to play in 2 years
Nothing. Mist dragon was already a joke in SHB, trusts already killed SB dungeons, Ivalice raids were nerfed or powercrept since 5.1. Eureka won't get much more traffic at this point. The most notable thing to come out of this will be a grifter powering through a F2P account and "organically" (along with friends on their F2P alts) getting into a party to clear UCOB or WR for clickbait.
None. People will drop the game long before reaching Stormblood.
Soooooooo true, WoWsis!
maybe better ucob and uwu totem parties
eureka ba being free from discord
Neither of that is going to happen because F2P can't use party chat or mske their own parties.
just watch
Way more people in Eureka. Way more Ultimate carries. Some carry sellers might even make F2P carry accounts for when they dont feel like subbing but wanna make money.
more people in eureka i guess
More people in eureka to bully
trial gamers will get to grief me when i pf ultimates.
Why do streamers seem to just love loudly screeching that they are leaving X game? They did the same thing with WoW when they “left” it but I can atleast see that it was for obvious clout because of the scandals, but what’s the deal with XIV and their rampant “I am quitting” campaign? Did they unironically think that they would receive the same clout they did for quitting WoW?
a lot of them are the same WoW streamers trying to do the same thing because it seemed to work for them once, and they don't understand why it worked
attention (obviously), there's a undercurrent of desperation to get the dev team to acknowledge them too.
A few reasons. It generates views which means revenue. Secondly, they seem themselves as 'influencers'. They love the attention and concept of people following their viewpoint and directing them to action. They also hope that by doing so it forces change within a development team because of the negative PR.
unfortunately yoshida is like the one MMO developer ever to have a spine on what his game is and what he wants out of it
Thats not always a good thing. A developer can make bad choices or be stuck in old habits.
that's right wowsisters
this game needs a makeover yass queeennn!!!!
Why are you so obsessed with World of Warcraft?
>obsessed

Why are you so obsessed with World of Warcraft and trannies?

Obsessed. Something you want to tell us?
Well he should keep his fetishes to himself, nobody asked him about it
>Obsessed. Something you want to tell us?
Obsessed. You probably jerk off to chud porn yourself, gay
It's what he knows.
a developer can also know better than his general playerbase what's "good for the game," i personally think FF14 does a great job at getting the general feel of what the playerbase wants out of jobs or minor gameplay changes (note before some spaz cites astrologian or kaiten removal at me yes they've fucked up before too)
have a nice day
>unfortunately yoshida is like the one MMO developer ever to have a spine on what his game is and what he wants out of it
Retard
the direction of XIV makes perfect sense if we take it from the perspective of someone who has no free time and only plays black mage.
>Why do streamers seem to just love loudly screeching that they are leaving X game?
Because they're narcissists
Xeemsbros??? Why isn't breedable Baldicante calling out Zepla like he did when she played the w*zard game??

Will I get bullied for queuing for Rival Wings without bothering to read some chud's "epic guide"? I absolutely refuse to engage with "Discord" in any capacity so I'll just be flying blind.
>why am I getting flamed for griefing in a game mode where one person can throw for the other 23?
I bet you instalock BJ and shoot missiles at players despite being told not to. Fuck off
>nooooo you HAVE to follow our Discord's rules you can't just play the mode you have to play it OUR way!!!
>Rival Wings only EXISTS because of OUR Discord!!!!
Ok, enjoy getting blacklisted by your whole team for shooting missiles at players despite the fact that it does 0 damage and everyone is telling you to stop
This is the same guy who sends you a "warning" tell when you kill a fucking Heavensward A-rank solo without alerting his faggy Discord first
>getting flamed for griefing in a PvP game mode is exclusive to discord groups
You’re retarded and obsessed
Don't take any mechs or take Cruise Chaser and you'll be fine for the most part. If you're on the opposite team pick any the other two mechs and afk in base however.
as long as you dont take mechs then no-one will care, half the people playing are 2 int apes that are only there for tomes and have zero map awareness for objectives
>BJ
you mean Oppressor, missile punch can 2 shot basically anyone if they dont have purify up
Yes I meant shooting missiles in the oppressor. But I also see retards instalock BJ despite clearly not know how to use it or even aim with the cannons
i usually find people dont go in BJ at all so i have too and I'd rather shit WHM lasers at half the enemy team
also i was wrong, WAR can survive 2 punches from BJ
Maybe because I'm esl but the fact that they translated the game so that characters speak like it's medieval times made it so unbearable
Also I don't get the "just power through ARR after that the game is great" - what?
Heavensward was okay at best, so was stormblood, shadowbringers, the supposed best expansion was so boring I quit like about 25% in
And I love final fantasy, just dont get the hype about this game
Literally only Urianger speaks like that. Besides that it's pretty straightforward english besides from "make haste" and "succor" being used a lot
People that say the game is hard to understand just have to be bullshitting, there's more than enough context clues in normal speech to know what the hell they mean even within Urianger's SSShakespearean dialogue. The first time you see "chirurgeon" in dialogue should be confusing and then you see them heal in a cutscene and it shouldn't be confusing anymore.
The endgame is boring sit in instance queue simulator
The first 3 expansions are free now, so might as well. I liked it a lot.
If you don’t like the game by the campfire scene in HW please just fuck off back to WoW where I know you came from. You will do nothing but drag everyone down with your autism and demand that XIV replicate your dead furry game even more than it already has. Just leave and never come back, nobody wants you here
A few things that you already know the answer to:
>Job design is flat out incompetent in an industry like this one.
>The story is a slog no matter what stage of the game you're in
>The journey to end-game is miserable
>The stay at end-game is even more miserable
>There is no character progression, development, or customization. None.
I recommend single-player games. Try Stranger of Paradise or something.
I only play pvp afking
I liked all the single player elements like MSQ and grind solo. I hate the rest specially rp retards on Costa de sol, having stupid parties talking in discord like second life.
Ive been playing this game since release and not once have i stepped into a extreme / savage / ultimate raid or trial, OR any PvP content aside from afking in frontlines.
Not wasting time on your shitty minigames. The sooner they stop wasting dev time on content that 99% of the playerbase doesnt engage with and has no interest in, the better.
moron, not everyone wants to 1.0 where we had botanists throwing rocks at Ifrit to stun him.
No, 14 has been varying amounts of good for various reasons throughout it's lifetime but the game is at it's lowest point so far in terms of quality and fun. People still play it in droves because sunk cost and also wanting to be in the club but the game itself isn't a reason for playing the game anymore
>No boob physics
It's unironically over.
At least XIV still has boob physics.
holy shit p10s is so bad
Filtrado
>pf is terrible at it
>the design of the fight is terrible
>LOLOL YOU GOT FILTERED LOL
nah piss off fight is great the first time you clear it, anything after that is trash
Just because pf is terrible doesn't mean the fight is bad.
What you don't like role enumeration stacks? Especially the support one which always is the one failing for some reason.
the whole tier is excellent(p11s is okay but I like the music and the voicelines are incredible), even p9s filters shitters someitmes
p11s is the most boring piece of shit ever created
you're delusional if you think that shit is good, you aren't fighting the music or the voice lines
get real
did you not do p6s or p7s
p11s is better than e11s imo
yeah p6s and p7s are shit too that doesn't mean this big pile of shit isn't shit either
>p11s is the most boring piece of shit ever created
You clearly haven't played this game long enough.
this tier was mediocre as fuck. once again the door boss is really fun, the first floor is also decent, and everything else ranges from ok (p10s) to boring (p11s) to "wow this fight is really unfun i actually miss high concept" (p12sp2).
>Athena
>fun
Chain Theory are the only good mechanics.
good thing you'll always see at least 2 of them and they're during 2min windows, making them even better. also the music is way better than the second phase, holy fuck i'm still upset the second phase is a 30s loop that drones on and on.
Sorry you didn't get carried this tier lil bro
>uh you didn't like the fight? That means you're filtered bro lmao
I cleared week 2. Pandaemonium overall was pretty shit.
>I-I cleared!
lol
filtered shitters
i cleared week 1, tier was mediocre as was the other two tiers this expansion. ill give you p10s was fun to prog, but its just ok on reclears. i guess its funny joining pfs and seeing the dps blow themselves up on enumerations/spreads
>I'm bad so the fight is bad
oh no no no Anon...lol!
fight stinks lol
Nice healing parse retard lol
listen if you think p10s is good, you've been playing since shb or ew
in any case, you're stupid cope seethe and mald bye don't reply to me
your mom ugly btw

and i fuck them both and give them new son they'll be proud of
>listen if you think p10s is good, you've been playing since shb or ew
what is it with every tard pulling the newfag/oldfag card for this game when the game by design makes you play through all old story content and each expac's endgame funnels you towards raids
because old raids had better design
it's not rocket science
if you were to make a tier list of all fights in the game, all of ew would be near the bottom
>"you have to do the old stuff anyways"
>hurrrr old stuff better
r/wooooosh
yeah i'm sure you did a6s or o10s and thought DAMN P10S IS BETTER THAN THIS!!!

you don't like o10s?
OH filtered filtered we have a filtered player here haha look he got filtered for not liking a fight oh what you don't like in out in out into fuck you second phase? filtered!!
still better than p10s
Is pulling up some random person's parse supposed to be some gotcha?

he already confirmed one is on the way and XVI is getting two paid DLCs, he's giving her all he's got captain
XV didn't get an event until a couple years after it released. XVI will be the same, you'll get it in 7.1 at the earliest, but most likely 7.3.
So a 7R event should be soon, right?
I wouldn't mind a Buster Sword weapon for DRK that forces you into the Cloud stance used by Regula and that one GNB legatus or a Cid costume.
Doubt it. Fall Guys is the main crossover for EW amd they're probably waiting for 7R to finish before making the crossover.
He's saving it for when the PC version drops. In the meantime, please enjoy Ever Crisis.
i haven't kept up with ever crisis, what's the cope line for all the "ethics committee" fedora tippers about tifa getting a wet t-shirt and daisy dukes over a bikini
Something about showing less skin which I don't mind. I dislike micro-bikinis for the same reason. May as well just be naked at that point. But there are no boob physics which is a shame.

Dawntrail will be better, surely.
I find it funny that I'm reading posts here and there about DT being better already simply for the amount of content outlined when that was the same sentiment I had for EW after SHB took a step back from SB's content pipeline. These people will just never learn.
what content is there for DT? isn't it just a retread of what we got in EW?
No they didn't. EW had very little content promised or planned. DT has tons promised through interviews that Yoshida is legally obligated to add.
EW marketing had island sanctuary, new housing ward, criterion dungeons, revamped pvp, deep dungeon, and the return of Hildibrand and second ultimate. This was already more than SHB which just had Bozja. Of course, no one knew how IS and criterion would really turn out but expectations were high if they were going to essentially replace forays. EW is literally the same as listed, with something "new" but no specifics as to what the new battle content is yet.
>Island sanctuary
Not content
>New ward
Not content
>Criterion and variant
Wasted potential that is literally pointless after one day
>Deep dungeon
Also squandered potential that refuses to evolve
>Hildibrand
Not content
>Second Ultimate
Not really attributed to EW since one was delayed from SHB purely due to incompetence and laziness
You may not like Bozja but what makes content important is longevity and it had massive longevity. In an interview Yoshida said in DT he plans to keep doing criterion, deep dungeon, a foray AND new battle content.
People are taking that interview out of context. He said they planned to keep making that kind of content and had ideas for it. That is NOT a promise that all of it will be in the next expansion. Saying "Yeah well do another foray" doesn't not explicitly mean one is coming in DT.
>This was already more than SHB which just had Bozja
You don't get it man, people hecking love Bozja
Also post your max mettle, fight logs, duel clears, DRS mount and every ShB relic weapon or didn't play.
>island sanctuary,
wasted
>new housing ward,
forgot they even added those. The woes of those not in ball-in-chains
>criterion dungeons,
I liked it, a refresher from dungeons. Criterion being 3 extreme moron bosses back to back was not the way to do things
>revamped pvp,
might be the only good thing EW brought
>deep dungeon, and the return of Hildibrand and second ultimate
shit content, you can't even get party to do deep dungeon below level 30 anymore
Honestly in hindsight the fanfests leading up to EW were completely devoid of content, people were just automatically hyped for the "end of the saga!!" and completely ignored everything else
This and they didn't even fucking end it which was all I wanted out of this shitfest. Dawntrail will ONCE AGAIN be a nonstop parade of Ancients gayry.

Watch as we reach the city of gold and someone merely goes "Oh hey Emet-Selch mentioned this" and that's the one and only reference to anything ancient related in the expansion but it's already enough for people to bitch about it.
It's going to be 100% Azem focused and you're a retard to think otherwise.
ONLY if they double down on the cool adventure vacation plot AND give us Shtola in a bikini, seeing we got sweat-stinien in the last patch.
Hnngh.
myoo~
With how succesful that one swuimsuit they added in EW was, I'd be wierded out if DT doesn't get a bunch more for the players too.
Maybe someday anons will finally realize spending all day seething about an e-celeb is ALSO a parasocial relationship... but I wouldn't count on it.
I would kill for a bunch of bikini designs, especially sling-style. And some speedos and thongs for the boys.
>especially sling-style
Anon, do you WANT to kill me?
maybe
Wait that's not a sling bikini...
True, unfortunately the slings available aren't in her size.
Tbqh that mod doesn't work that well.
>Tits defying gravity like they're getting pull really firmly.
>No dentation at all.
>Biking strings aren't even tense.
Least the areola peek is nice.
Yeah, some weight would be a lot better, plus skindentation to show it trying to contain all of the flesh. Skindentation always works.
>Skindentation always works.
Correct.
Nice to see I am talking to an anon of culture.
Why not a hybrid?!
Fat cat.
fat cat tats
Gato gordo...lay off the archon burgers...
This, ditch the burgers and enjoy some BEEF SOFT TACOS, OH BEEF SOFT TACOS, OH BEEF SOFT TACOS, SO BIIIIIIII-IG!
Unfhg.
All Dawntrail needs is a good 7.3 patch and shitty fate instances in boring brown drab ww1 trenches and people will herald it as the greatest FF expansion.
It's like reading ai generated posts in here sometimes. They almost feel like they know about the game but post some of the weirdest, dumbest shit that outs them.
Why the fuck is it like this so much recently? Did something happen?
Most people who criticize XIV dont play it and just get their hate news from third party sources. They're like "haha you didnt get a foray this time no content" but behind the screen they're like "wtf is a foray...either way lol I owned them"
>Is it worth it?
Not right now. Not at all.
The latest expac and current patch was very lacking in pretty much what you play it for.
Parsing and Mod-beasting gays are the only ones who play right now.
It's riddled with script abusing scum and blatant gayry.
The community is actually mindbroken and will attack you for bringing it up.
Zepla is hated because she said it herself. This old bitch plays the game for a long time and stays subbed forever, and now even she is speaking up about the lack of content.
It really puts it into perspective how someone who literally shills your game turns back on it because of how fucking bad it's become.
Island sanctuary is such a bad joke
Criterion is worthless. It had potential. They didn't realize it.
Ultimate sucks dick and the glam looks like pixel pizza
Savaga is just stressful and finding a good group is migraine inducing.
PvP is laughably riddled with fucking cheaters. Do they get banned? No.
The GMs aren't active. You as a player are somehow responsible for the game's integrity.
XIV deserves to fucking die at this point with how lacking in attention it is.
>Mod-beasting gays are the only ones who play right now.
It's actually incredible how Mare completely took over the game
Parsing is really boring this tier. Just sac for kill time and roll the dice, no fancy stuff because you just kill on standard 2mins. Ultimates this expansion though were amazing.
I am using splatoon for most if not all Savage fights. I don't tell anyone, I don't stream, I don't complain 'no content' I keep it to myself, it just makes some of the encounters much more chill.
you're retarded
How does splatoon even work? Do you just install it and it tells you how to do savage fights as you are doing them?
Have you seen how people raid in WoW? It works like that.
You don’t even have to configure shit?
You install the addon, then you go to the git and add the scripts for whatever mechanics you need to the addon. Lets say the boss does a "find the safe spot!" mechanic (shocker), Splatoon will paint the area the mechanic will hit during the cast so you can comfortably go wherever you need.
I used to Savage raid up to Shadowbringers and gave up because of the time commitments and FC drama bullshit, I might start doing this in PF for my Savage gear, but I'm on the fence about using mods. I know they're used a lot more than people will admit to, but I just think personally once I cross the threshold I'll be too tempted and never go back. There is something to it knowing that all the fights, all the raids, everything I've done I've done off my own ability to learn and play and not relying on tools (apart from other party members).
I get you, pretty much in the same boat as you. But the mechanics just got too annoying to deal with and I didn't want to leave during prog with them having to start with a new player. Can stomach the bs way more now.
Ngl I'd rather my fucking static mates cheat then waste my mother fucking time. Holy shit bro
People act like streamers are the problem but the actual problem are you fucking retards who obsess over them. You're the trash plaguing XIV threads. Get some mother fucking self awareness.
I do wonder if some of them are even real. I've been playing for 9 years and have never even heard of that llama guy. Someone could just invent random ecelebs for this game and I'd never know.
another funny 3 pulls -> light party of p10s
Stop failing mechanics noob
IT'S NOT ME IT'S EVERYONE ELSE
FUCK THIS FIGHT
