I know Ganker is super cynical and all, but I think he's honestly happy that the franchise he spearheaded is still going to this day, and it's not really shilling
He genuinely looked like he enjoyed the London fanfest, yes he'd have been contracted but he could have just been there signed a few papers and been miserable but he was smiling, happy, telling stories, thanking the team and Yoshida personally (which made pissy eyes Yoshida cry again) playing the game on stage, showing off his character, interacting with people in the game. His character poking the Roe in the butt, I laughed.
He does play the game and it's always an event when people find him in the game, funny seeing them getting legitimately star struck. Has has an FC house as well pic related

It's 1 or she's from another planet. Considering that Palace of the Dead involves a character from Vagrant Story explicitly said to be from another world and Gilgamesh is in XIV, it's completely possible she's from Tactics/VS/XII Ivalice too.
a toast! to trannies & zoomers ruining Final Fantasy!
this company hasn't recovered from the irreparable damage Toriyama's """trilogy""" and Yoshitpiss' troon fantasy have done to the franchise. the last good Final Fantasy was XII. there hasn't been a single good game produced since that date (2006), which makes sense given FFXII was produced before the merger with Enix showcasing how corporate greed ruins games.
It's funny, before XIV you would have said X was the last good FF because it was cool to hate on XI and XII
If you were old enough, before X you would have said VII was the last good FF because it was cool to hate on VIII and IX
And if you were older you'd say VI was the last good one since it was cool to hate on 3D
And if you were even older and Japanese, you'd say III was the last good one because it was the hardest of the franchise at the time.
>before XIV you would have said X was the last good FF
no, they had consistent quality up until the merger. XII was produced before Squaresoft merged with Enix and it shows in how their corporate logic ruined the franchise. now we get games that saturate generations. not even good games at that (XIII trilogy, XIV copy-pasted slop, XV DLC, probably XVI DLC too) >If you were old enough

I have to wonder where it all went wrong
Granted we're both still here so it's not great by any measure, but for frick's sake, boy, reel it in.
I don't remember anyone doing anything but wanking off Matsuno and calling XII muh real Final Fantasy because it came after X/X-2/XI and you could get lost in a field for years.
Matsuno got so much shit for Bojza he semi-retired all his social media and took a break because the shitshow was too much. Granted we didn't hear about it because most of it came from the JP side.
Do yourself a favour someday, go on 2ch/5ch and type in ff14 use translation plugins
You'll see instantly the amount of shit the game any FF gets from the JP community on their online forums, the vitriol is fricking real, they really also really hate YoshiP with a passion that's why I keep thinking the autistic thread spammers are rejected 2chn nips the rage they have for that man is only reflected on what you see on JP chans.
Truth is, a large part of Final Fantasy's player base doesn't give a shit about these overly complicated political drama that have you remember who is Ser X serving Duke Y but secretly working for Count Z.
Even Final Fantasy Tactics dropped this facade midway in favor of the "classic" fantasy plot of fighting against the Lucavi.
FFXII was an unfinished mess, to add insult to injury. Ivalice served to almost nothing other than a few nostalgia triggers.
Sakaguchi has cleared an Ultimate, have you? This 60 year old man with a penchant for late night drinking all day gaming cleared and Ultimate, what's your excuse anon?
Why is this old hag being brought up? She's done, out, reputation ruined and fully shat on. She did it to herself thinking the FFXIV community would be into doom posting as much as the WoW community is for their game. It isn't though and instead of praising her, people stopped watching her.
You legit summed up exactly what happened. I unsubbed because it wasn't valid criticism, just doom posting. I know it was bs because she made a video about how emotional and sad she was over endwalker but then made a video saying something like >endwalker is the worse expansion in mmo history?
Lol people will call you dumb but this is basically how XIV ecelebs are. An average gamer could clear content in comparable time to hardcores with the right group, a pro raider will flounder hard with the wrong group.

2 full lockouts and ignored my explanations
happened because even braindead moron content like unreal is above the average user's paygrade.
All the content in this game is designed for babies, it's always the same shit, same mechanics, same movement same everything
Can you homosexuals stop pretending that ultimates are hard?
Anon fundamentally the mechanics aren't difficult, everyone knows this. Why is an Ultimate fight difficult? Because there are mechanics in the fight that you do have to be reactive to, it's part muscle memory part reaction, and a single failed mechanic can and often will result in a wipe. TOP for example is 20 minute fight give it take a minute or two, now imagine you have to perfectly execute up to 4-5 mechanics every 20 seconds over 20 minutes spread over 8 people with there being reactive mechanics that you need to solve on the spot.
The Ultimates are a show of your ability to read mechanics, your ability to react to rng, your positioning, knowing your class pitch perfectly, being in sync with 7 other people and keep it consistent over 20minutes.
Show me your clear and title.
>reactive
HAHAHAHA literally every single fight is some simon says garbage stop pretending ASAP
as far as i know sekiro is the only game with reactionary combat, a game where you can rely entirely on your reaction and reflexes instead of waiting for patterns >Show me your clear and title.
i'm not showing you shit kek seethe for eternity
Dog... let me red pill you real quick.. literally anyone can clear an ultimate, the only reason a majority haven't is because they lack a proper group or introduction to them. If you want even more proof anyone can: We had a person in our static that had to constantly be reminded what to do and where to stand and they still managed to clear UWU with us.
Just calling out mechanics and positions. I can also tell you that you don't really need voice chat for raids for the most part. It's more convenient to have voice chat for sure, but they're not necessary, especially for savages. Plugins can help you a ton more.

There is no anti-cheat in the game so you're fine using them. It's a Don't ask don't tell situation, you don't announce you're using them and you won't get nuked.
First you'll need to download something called the Dalamud Launcher
if there are anons with a guide on how to install plugins-mods please drop it as I don't have one, and it would be easier for anon to understand for me to explain through autistic ramblings.
Download the dalamud launcher, you'll need to connect/ pair it to your account once you've down that you can access plugins through the launcher itself while you're in game, there'll be two more settings options on your settings menu when you open it up and you can browse through that. There are other mods that aren't connected with the Dalamud launcher, like ACT which is the DPS metre, you can download that seperatly, just use google and you'll find out how.
https://heliosphere.app/guide/beginner
This should tell you everything, I'm not sure what weakauras is but I can tell you that the plugins do not "play" for you. There ARE plugins that make your combos easier and I'm fine with that, I don't use em' however.
From Aus and play on NA, I tried doing a current Extreme when EW released but some of the more modern mechanics are just too quick and I kept getting clipped due to lag+server tick, put me off raiding because I'm a dead pretty much dead weight.
Ultimate/Savage seems impossible, heard people have to do special strats in NA if they have an ausgay in their group, seems like burden.
It's not fun anymore
TEA feels nothing like Alex Savage; that's when I really started to feel disillusioned with the game's design choices for how the raids were put together
DSR just wasn't fun to prog when "that guy" kept fricking up Nidhogg, and add on the fight being half "gorillion AoE/debuff intermission" and half target dummy was just not fun for me
Didn't even bother trying for TOP, or any savage since; they look like I've already done them in different arrangements at this point
Hackaguchi. Why do you still pretend this moron matters? He stopped making console games before 2012. His Terra Wars/Terra Battle mobile games flopped so badly he needed a handout from Tim Cook to fund his last game. Mistwalker probably went under without anyone knowing.
What to these peope do when their stream number/revenue plummet?
Do they have to find some menial job?
I suppose the majority of them don't bank copious amount of cash like the biggest ones.
For Zepla she's gone back to WoW, her viewer numbers are a quarter and still going lower what she was regularly getting from the end of SB until TOP. She's going around different games to try and see what community will adopt her now FFXIV's is done with her.
She probably should have done that in the first place, who the frick actually likes 14 streams outside of like week 1 groups and world first, this game fricking sucks ass to watch.
Not really, the problem with WoW is the community there is shit, they'll expect you to know what you're doing, know how to gear, they get annoyed at you if you haven't done the content before and I'm not even talking about Endgame raiding, but simple levelling dungeons. It's why most people who are playing the game are returning players and not new blood, the game is not even remotely friendly or offers anything to a new player.

If you want something has some really good story with your mmo unironically I'd recommend Star Wars the Old Republic, the Imperial Agent, Bounty Hunter, Sith Inquisitor are some of the best character stories you'll get in an mmo. It's fully voice acted stuff as well, no reading needed, you get companions and they'll fight with you and you can kick them out of your shit permanently if one of them annoys you, you can also romance in that game. The game itself is set up basically it plays like a WoW clone but the story and setting in that game up to a certain story beat I won't spoil is some really good stuff.

You can play the entire stories completely free, stuff like titles and certain legendary gear is locked behind pay walls, levelling is slow, and there are other pay walled shit but you can do most of content free.

WoW is very inconsistent with questlines if you're used to XIV's MSQ structure.
For example, if a new raid tier patch comes up, you will be able to access the questline leading to fight Trogdor IV in this tier even if you don't know who he is because you didn't do the previous tier, when Trogdor IV was introduced.
Leveling is also a little bit all over the place in some routes, but that's sort of inevitable after.
Many class mechanics are based on procs instead of double weaving copious amounts of OGCD.
Content is structured with various tiers of difficulty. On the one hand this helps aggravate the gear threadmill situatioon, on the other hand you can find you sweetspot for difficulty, instead of the XIV situation you have normal braindead content and absurd Savage difficulty spike.
However people expect you to know every fricking thing in a instance and will refuse to explain it to you (there's a menu for reading that). Tanking and Healing is way harder in most content.

Absolutely worth it. It has so much content and is incredibly active right now. Retail is in a very good place, don't believe the psychopaths who hate anything that isn't FFXIV. I'd personally recommend Classic SoD but Dragonflight is worth looking at also. They're both very different games at core though.
one of the worst fricking games I have ever had the pleasure of fricking playing. Just look at any wow streamers and see what they are doing to see the gameplay.
There is a big fricking reason why NORMIES are never talking about wow, sure they talk about "yeah I played it in the past" but they never praise it or anything.

Not kidding.
I stopped playing after MoP but tried coming back a few times and it didnt stick. Its hard to describe but its very 'gamey'. It doesnt feel immersive at all. The gameplay is definitely very smooth, and it does have a lot of max level content in terms of dungeons and raiding. But it doesnt really make you feel like you're part of the game world. Its very "make bar go up" oriented at endgame. The zones do look pretty though.
I'd imagine they just reduce the lifestyle creep and live beneath their prior means. A streamer with any following in the thousands will still make enough to earn a living while working on their own schedule with no commute and doing a fraction of the work and stress required for wageslaving.
She would have to get completely cancelled not half-assed cancelled to go back to whatever the frick it was she was doing before she became a streamer.

She'll never get invited to a media tour ever again. The japanese and SE especially don't frick around when it comes to brand loyalty.
Lupin were only added because they clearly wanted to do more with Galuf but the Eureka storyline fell apart. We'll probably get to see them again in Dawntrail.

How come xeno whatever his name keeps having a solid 1.5k viewers everytime he streams while pretty much only streaming XIV? Why can't other streamers compete?
Pareto's Law. The top 20% best streamers get 80% of the views.
He just happened to be at the right place at the right time and did good enough content to solidify his viewerbase.
And I don't mean he was just lucky. He was prepared enough to make good use of this opportunity.
Many other streamers had a view spike but couldn't capitalize on it and have a bigger base even after their "spotlight" faded, thus returning to previous numbers.
Xeno used his chance to actually grow despite fluctuations.
This, a lot of FF14 streamers are personality voids, there is nothing there they just sit and stream the game and hope that's enough which is why they sit around 100, 150 viewers at most.
Arthars had the opportunity to be a large Streamer but he can't stop himself being a raid log shitter, and instead of doing anything even remotely entertaining he'll just sit and raid for hours and hours, or when there is a new content drop he'll clear it in a day then go play a game his audience have no interest in which happened recently pic related. Arthars was at 1k viewers just one week prior to pic related, he was streaming the 6.5 Criterion Savage.
Xeno is the only one who has really taken the opporunity gifted him by the balls and done well with it.
Pyromancer had 5k subs at one point but kept having baby rage meltdown moments at FF14, exactly what he was doing when he played WoW and lost his audience, it went all the way down to 100 viewers, not even subs until he went back to WoW.
Don't forget that Xeno has capitalized way harder on YouTube clips than the others. He's been starting to follow the Asmongold model, and it's paying off.
I can see if Xeno keeps up what it's doing, double dipping on Youtube and Twitch he'll grow into a really big channel especially with the drop of 7.0 will work wonders for him. He's going to the JP fanfest so there's content. I'm not a fan, but I like to keep up to date on the communty/ social medi aspect of FF14 to gauge interest, to see what's being said. He seems at the moment to be the guy most primed to be the tithead of the game for the West at least.
>pretty much only streaming XIV
he doesn't, that's why. he streams plenty of other games and does react content. nobody can be a successful streamer only doing xiv
He coattailed Asmon hard, he was a nobody despite being the hardcore raider persona since the start until SHB. Used to only have raid clears and parse run vids, became a react youtuber with the asmon power vacuum of 2021.
Can confirm met a 25 year old Turkish girl very cute yes I can confirm she was a girl she was shy at first but then opened up we went raiding together in Normal mode on content she hadnt done but then she started telling me about her FC and orbiters how they were drama fighting and she was looking for back up more friends to help her fight them red flags immediately went up I blocked her after that, I want no part of an orbiting simp party. I'm here to play the game, make some connections, enjoy what's on offer not a part of some weird drama fanfic parade.

the only difference doing w2w makes is killing trash. everything else you experience in a dungeon is the same. killing trash faster doesn't give you less time to look at the surroundings. killing trash faster doesn't give you less time to interact with the interactables, if anything it gives you more. killing trash faster doesn't cut the boss fights any shorter than killing trash slowly

and yet when you are running around with other players you are expected to progress at an appropriate pace, especially if there is the expectation that other players have already done the dungeon. it has nothing to do with how fast or how much trash you can pick up, it has to do with the fact that nobody is waiting on you to progress, your tangental narrative has nothing to do with this aside from the implication that 'your pace' is consistently the fastest it can be, which, good for you man.

that is not what 'your own pace' means at all and i already clearly dismissed the aspect of soaking in the atmosphere being affected by the decision to make the pace a little faster by killing trash faster, which trusts don't let you do in some instances. it's not my fault if you used the wrong words to explain yourself, i'm not a mind reader

I don't know what the frick you all are arguing about but the point of trusts is to get people with weird social anxiety through MSQ dungeons and add some NPC flavor text to the experience. They are intentionally shitty to prevent you from soloing dungeons forever and farming gear, because yoshida wants you to actually use the duty finder.

when they start attacking you that's when you know they have zero argument - he's defending a broken system and backed himself into a wall
i remember doing the aery with trusts as a tank and the chirugeon npc would constantly get interrupted by mob aoes and get me killed on that trash pull after the first boss
of all the ecelebs who were critical of endwalker, the chinese lead dev of xiv was probably the most measured and sensible, although he had a few takes that i still disagreed with (island sanctuary is fine because he had zero expectations that it would be good anyway, ffxiv is good because it's very well-balanced)
When you do savage/ultimate content so much going back to normal mode is like doing the fight from scratch all over again, the mechanics are completely different.
I want to believe those who do it are only trying to chase attention because they're recording/streaming or whatever.
But in actuality they'd go for serious choices if playing alolne.
Yes.
To deny yourself silly fun is like those late teens/early 20s guys that try to be grumpy and grouchy and wear leather and chains all the time and pretend to be miserable and emotionally wise, only to turn into a 10yo boy again the second grandma bakes them an apple pie.

Real question is how is it possible that there are people left in the game who DON'T want to frick WoL. Realistically speaking, we shouldn't be able to take a single step in any city without fans crowding us.
Are they actually blind testing their content or do they already have it solved for them? I don't think any of the directors actually know how miserable progging is, especially in DF.
They have it solved and play on god mode and then ship the fights with more damage and health. Granted, the intended strat may be worse than something the players discover which makes it much easier.
I quit playing because the game does not look like this. And the morons who run it constantly do shit like censor outfits/downgrade models/ban mods/ban people who take screenshots of mods.
Alright Ganker, I have come to offer a bargain: >SE will introduce companionship/dating. It is fully voiced, and everyone can bond with each character to friendship levels but only one to a relationship level (you need a mogstation item to reset that)
HOWEVER >SE will outright state that said characters can't die in any shape any more
Thankfully 95% of them have because they can't monetise streaming FF14, so we're not infected for 7.0 with Streamer brainrot trying to influence this game like WoW has with Asmongold and Bellular being loud homosexuals always moaning at their game. Be thankful ff14 doesn't have that, or at least with Arthars and Xenos the devs don't give a shit what they say.
based, I recall game being less infected by "le streamerino said this" back in ARR/HW and even in SB I only bothered looking for MrBrappy's videoguides because my static asked me to. ShB did unrepairable damage to the game regardless of the success
Its honestly sad to see the wowgrifters that made a living on ex wow players obsessing over doomposting like a needy ex girlfriend discovering it doesnt work in other games so they are desperately trying to manufacture drama like dollar store keemstars.
But we don't care. We will never ever care or watch that shit and all they can do is seethe about it.
an exception because i really like his meltdowns over trivial shit and I recall someone posting a meltdown vid because his brother didn't like his in-game ff14 house
Still wasn't as bad as Nobbel who kept trying to predict shadowbringers to look like le ebig loremind only to keep getting it wrong and then kept mad at the game because he thought "the game is getting it wrong" and as the credits rolled on 5.0 he spent the whole time argueing with his stream chat about how emet selch was the worst writing he had ever seen purely because every prediction he had was wrong and he was laughed at so badly he slinked back to wow to make cope videos about danusers sloplore.
>Getting mad at Warriors of Darkness. >Not even reading the dialogue and yelling warriors of losers and frick you to the characters.

>got house when they first came out >got my first demolition warning email this week
i like Endwalker but the lack of a bozja/eureka keeping me coming back after capping every job is obvious.
Bro your Criterion?! I get it, none of the newer content did it for me either. I actually really started to dislike how they make fights at this point, more and more convoluted puzzle fights just fricking suck.
I still havent done everything in Rokkan and did the pixie one twice. They just aren't grabbing me.
It feels like they really took the time between 6.0 and 7.0 to do the backend stuff. Trust for 1-90, revamping pvp, new data centers and so on and so forth and put the real manpower into 7.0 which i guess if you have to do it for the longterm health its the best time but i am more than ready for Tu'ral at this point.
Like shit isn't today the 2nd anniversary of 6.0 or something crazy? its wierd that Sharlayan still feels like a new hub but its going to be the current one longer than any other.
>Marketed as a MMORPG >Keeps adding features that are anti-mmo >Full of people who dopn't socialise
Yikes. Had more socialising in the 15m of WoW than I have the past 4 years of XIV.
Thats the trouble with raids. I had the same feeling with WoW circa mists of pandaria when they added dungeon maps and it just highlighted that you remove the skybox and it comes down to >"is this a square fight or a round fight?" >mmo dev: haha what? its a good fight sir >"it was a square fight"
We need more shit inspired by FF bosses. Like remember the underground tunnel boss in FF9 where you are retreating from the boss that slowly pushes forwards and its a dps race?
But then steps of faith probably proved people are too stupid for that sort of thing.
I wish for more solo content. Just because it's a MMORPG doesn't mean that I have to tolerate whatever bullshit everyone is going to start crying about. Whenever I join a FC it barely survives a year because of some le drama: >RP FC: Officers who were "dating" break up and now whole fc has to hear about it and pick sides but it doesn't matter because fc gets disbanded >PVE FC: people were late in clearing stuff so they got kicked because they also had irl stuff to do. FC officers are basically a static and when one can't do raid because irl shit happened, static starts crying about not having any Black person to carry them and the start kicking even more people or disband >Casual FC: join discord so you can join our drama there too because we have some lgbqtrstwafhasd people here who have issues with missgendering and meds and we have to listen their ranting on vc... what do you mean the incel chud officer kicked them and called them "fricking trannies"? Leader, kick him and invite them back.
I wish I had solo criterion and savage...
>and then no one touched the content lol
Wonder why. Personally I hated every second of doing this shit. Having to study a fricking guide for every boss, get used to the fricking god awful execution and trying not to get frustrated at my friends who were way slower at picking things up. Like I am glad the content has fans and by the looks of it the nips love that shit, but I just am so tired of it. It actually makes the fact that classes are entirely brain dead to play a boon because 99% of the time you have to play the next esoteric version of timed simon says.
Esoteric simon says is based though the problem is it’s not individually done. They already solved this problem by making harder content where the deaths are on you and not instantly wiping the whole group. Leave that for ultimates and actual savage raids.
>checking guides for criterion
this content is at its peak when you blind prog it with friends so maybe try to clear it this way. Ofc its annoying to memorize puzzle strats when you don't get first hand experience
XIV could use actual shit in the map zones that isn't fricking fates/gathering/treasure map.
Doing elites, dreamsurge, world quests etc in WoW recently made me realise there is fricking no point in going to these zones after MSQ.
They need a lot of work, and not just additional evergreen content. Like for each type of mob, there's one little pocket of the zone where that thing spawns. Most of the time it's not even set up all that thematically(i.e. fish by water). Why aren't they sprinkled around everywhere? Why do they give little to no reward when killed, and instead of upping drop rates on the few that do have mats, SE up and fricking added a new FATE currency to buy them directly? Why aren't there zone and world drops, to give an excitement factor to killing shit?
They need to redo the mob loot system. Outside of farming the sheep in coerthas for wool in HW and the toads and tigers for leather in StB when was the last time outside a quest or hunt you actually went out and killed mobs?
Meanwhile in FFXI mobs have real loot tables that can include fricking SPELLS and shit. We need drops to be interesting.
I don't think RNG Farming is a venue XIV will veer into in any foreseeable future.
It's an old design reminiscent of older korean MMOs full of grindfest.
At worst they willl monetize XIV in another way, like the current GAAS trend.
At best they will make these mobs drop relevant tokens which can be traded for the desired reward, not unlike Tomes.
I'm not much of a streamer guy but this bald dude is entertaining and not whiny. At worst he's defeatist "you won't change the game, just accept it", but still not wrong about it lol.
I said entertaining, not based.
I just hope he's not IRL like he's in the game.
"Lol this problem is reallly shitty, but you know what, it's too big, so let's just accept it and do nothing about it."
But I'd rather have a streamer like that than some b***h ass doomer.
No. Defeatist is sayind you can't change the job rework logic and just hope they don't butcher DRG and AST.
Doomer is saying HURR GAME IS DED, IT'S DED NOBODY PLAYS IT ANYMORE while it's still relatively thriving.

To be fair, he tried changing said problems for a few years, but then he realized that he can't do anything about it (which is true) so instead he tries to influence the few things that might actually change.
This, I'm so fricking sick of doomers not just this game but fullstop. Imagine dooming a game or movie or whatever then spending half your fricking life obsessing over it.
tried that so me and friends who used to play other rpgs back in the day can play together. Light party mode. Everyone quit, haven't touched that alt since then... rip gyaru bnny
You mean having to re-farm glams since they're not account-wide and should be?
If you get past the MSQ slog twice, gearing two characters should be okay, since gearing 2-3 jobs isn't that demanding.
The worst thing is being capped by weekly tomes and they're quick to cap and since you're playing two characters, you can gear two jobs twice as fast.
Drops is so damn lame, pathetic and funny it's like they are saying: >P-please watch me so you can get free stuff for the game you are playing
Like, they (streamers) aren't already whoring themselves for viewers/views enough, they need this to prostitute themselves more. lmao
I hate what the Internet became. I was fortunate enough to live through it's first years.
I feel like sometime around 2008~2012 the "virtual world" started influencing our "real lives" too much. Frick social media.

Sakaguchi made the best Final Fantasy games
This is a fact!
Sakaguchi is apparently working with Square Enix on something. I am excited to find out what it will be! Dude is an absolute legend.
Maybe he's writing the new 8 man
that'd actually be a really good way for him to dip his toes back into ff without having to feel like hes come out of retirement.
Remember when he shilled XV? Good times.
>Remember when Sakaguchi shilled XV?
I actually don't. Please post your findings.
?t=61
I think comparing the Gooch's genuine appreciation for XIV with his shilling for other recent FF titles is disingenuous but here.
Man, if you people know how easy is just to take these checks, you wouldn't criticize him.
That said, dude really seems to endorse XIV regardless.
I know Ganker is super cynical and all, but I think he's honestly happy that the franchise he spearheaded is still going to this day, and it's not really shilling
He genuinely looked like he enjoyed the London fanfest, yes he'd have been contracted but he could have just been there signed a few papers and been miserable but he was smiling, happy, telling stories, thanking the team and Yoshida personally (which made pissy eyes Yoshida cry again) playing the game on stage, showing off his character, interacting with people in the game. His character poking the Roe in the butt, I laughed.
He does play the game and it's always an event when people find him in the game, funny seeing them getting legitimately star struck. Has has an FC house as well pic related
i speedread the ivalice stuff despite being a FFT fan, is 3 the answer to Matsuno's question?
It's 1, they also tell you think in the Anabaseios story section for Pandaemonium.
No, it's 1
Anon, I don't know however you could always travel to the Sakaguchi's FC house in game, apparently he's on almost every day and a lot of the devs come and go to visit and raid as the FC is called Square it's full of devs.
It's 1 or she's from another planet. Considering that Palace of the Dead involves a character from Vagrant Story explicitly said to be from another world and Gilgamesh is in XIV, it's completely possible she's from Tactics/VS/XII Ivalice too.
Sakaguchi also directed this

Yeah that's true.

this company hasn't recovered from the irreparable damage Toriyama's """trilogy""" and Yoshitpiss' troon fantasy have done to the franchise. the last good Final Fantasy was XII. there hasn't been a single good game produced since that date (2006), which makes sense given FFXII was produced before the merger with Enix showcasing how corporate greed ruins games.
It's funny, before XIV you would have said X was the last good FF because it was cool to hate on XI and XII
If you were old enough, before X you would have said VII was the last good FF because it was cool to hate on VIII and IX
And if you were older you'd say VI was the last good one since it was cool to hate on 3D
And if you were even older and Japanese, you'd say III was the last good one because it was the hardest of the franchise at the time.
There's truly no end to it. Flat circle, etc.
>before XIV you would have said X was the last good FF
no, they had consistent quality up until the merger. XII was produced before Squaresoft merged with Enix and it shows in how their corporate logic ruined the franchise. now we get games that saturate generations. not even good games at that (XIII trilogy, XIV copy-pasted slop, XV DLC, probably XVI DLC too)
>If you were old enough
Black person you're probably half my age, pipe down
>Black person you're probably half my age, pipe down
If you're that much older than myself and still make posts like
I have to wonder where it all went wrong
Granted we're both still here so it's not great by any measure, but for frick's sake, boy, reel it in.
XII is a terrible mess of an unfinished game compared to X, you can keep saying it was the last good game but X-2 is unironically better
nah, but X-2 is equivalent in quality
I don't remember anyone doing anything but wanking off Matsuno and calling XII muh real Final Fantasy because it came after X/X-2/XI and you could get lost in a field for years.
Matsuno got so much shit for Bojza he semi-retired all his social media and took a break because the shitshow was too much. Granted we didn't hear about it because most of it came from the JP side.
Do yourself a favour someday, go on 2ch/5ch and type in ff14 use translation plugins
You'll see instantly the amount of shit the game any FF gets from the JP community on their online forums, the vitriol is fricking real, they really also really hate YoshiP with a passion that's why I keep thinking the autistic thread spammers are rejected 2chn nips the rage they have for that man is only reflected on what you see on JP chans.
Truth is, a large part of Final Fantasy's player base doesn't give a shit about these overly complicated political drama that have you remember who is Ser X serving Duke Y but secretly working for Count Z.
Even Final Fantasy Tactics dropped this facade midway in favor of the "classic" fantasy plot of fighting against the Lucavi.
FFXII was an unfinished mess, to add insult to injury. Ivalice served to almost nothing other than a few nostalgia triggers.
>Ivalice served to almost nothing other than a few nostalgia triggers.
Just like every other FF reference in the game?
Sakaguchi has cleared an Ultimate, have you? This 60 year old man with a penchant for late night drinking all day gaming cleared and Ultimate, what's your excuse anon?
i mean zepla cleared dsr, if there's anything we've learned, it's that clout matters more than skill in the majority of the ultimates in this game
Cope dude.
>he already forgot about rich becoming a triple legend
Literally who? Get a life an stop obsessing over random internet bullshit
>deflecting
you love to see it
Post clears homosexual
>muh wow e-celeb
Why is this old hag being brought up? She's done, out, reputation ruined and fully shat on. She did it to herself thinking the FFXIV community would be into doom posting as much as the WoW community is for their game. It isn't though and instead of praising her, people stopped watching her.
She also walled hard.
You legit summed up exactly what happened. I unsubbed because it wasn't valid criticism, just doom posting. I know it was bs because she made a video about how emotional and sad she was over endwalker but then made a video saying something like
>endwalker is the worse expansion in mmo history?
I can overlook hyperbole to a degree but it was pretty fricking stark.
Lol people will call you dumb but this is basically how XIV ecelebs are. An average gamer could clear content in comparable time to hardcores with the right group, a pro raider will flounder hard with the wrong group.
Say what you will, rich locking himself in the closet until he beat TEA was a fun little event.
He's famous and can get a good group
you could always ask for anons if you wanted to clear, get a group from here. but you're all too afraid of social interaction for that.
are you saying that doing fresh prog with 7 other fresh is the same experience as doing fresh prog with 7 others who have cleared multiple times
I'm not saying anything other than I said.
Play with Ganker and not /vg/, the latter is full of braindead coomers who erp with each other all day and cry about how lonely they are when they're not erping.
Last time I played with Ganker, they failed Shiva Unreal
When you say failed, they didn't one shot or failed after hour upon hour of Pull?
2 full lockouts and ignored my explanations
I'm here for fun times, I regret I missed Shiva Unreal progging. I'm up for Thordan Unreal if anons want to get together and make a group this week.
I'm not subbed currently, otherwise I would. Playing other games, mostly old arcade and fighting games.
you're not getting anything other than fresh proggers or people who might as well be fresh proggers from Ganker 100%, so that is what you are saying essentially
Ok? Yeah let's have some fun fresh progging. That's what I'm playing the game for, fun and have some shits n giggles.
No, you are playing as a second job and you will log in to perform busywork and get the necessary tokens.
Every.
Single.
Day.
what you're doing is irrelevant, the point is that it's not what sakaguchi did. the old man used his fame to get experienced people to speedrun his clear
Most of Ganker are terrible at video games, but especially /vg/
This opinion is coming from previous experience when playing with anons in XIV.
There's a reason why Ganker brings out the buzzwords when people talk about hard content anon. Most of them would rather pay YoshiP 15 bucks a month for the equivalent of digital chores in their """comfy""" game instead of getting shit done. I'm not surprised at all that
happened because even braindead moron content like unreal is above the average user's paygrade.
Unlike him, I have no friends.
You have friends anon we are all here, we just haven't met each other yet.
All the content in this game is designed for babies, it's always the same shit, same mechanics, same movement same everything
Can you homosexuals stop pretending that ultimates are hard?
Anon fundamentally the mechanics aren't difficult, everyone knows this. Why is an Ultimate fight difficult? Because there are mechanics in the fight that you do have to be reactive to, it's part muscle memory part reaction, and a single failed mechanic can and often will result in a wipe. TOP for example is 20 minute fight give it take a minute or two, now imagine you have to perfectly execute up to 4-5 mechanics every 20 seconds over 20 minutes spread over 8 people with there being reactive mechanics that you need to solve on the spot.
The Ultimates are a show of your ability to read mechanics, your ability to react to rng, your positioning, knowing your class pitch perfectly, being in sync with 7 other people and keep it consistent over 20minutes.
Show me your clear and title.
>reactive
HAHAHAHA literally every single fight is some simon says garbage stop pretending ASAP
as far as i know sekiro is the only game with reactionary combat, a game where you can rely entirely on your reaction and reflexes instead of waiting for patterns
>Show me your clear and title.
i'm not showing you shit kek seethe for eternity
Post clears
Dog... let me red pill you real quick.. literally anyone can clear an ultimate, the only reason a majority haven't is because they lack a proper group or introduction to them. If you want even more proof anyone can: We had a person in our static that had to constantly be reminded what to do and where to stand and they still managed to clear UWU with us.
I've yet to touch Savage, let alone Ultimate. What do you use voice comms in those for?
Just calling out mechanics and positions. I can also tell you that you don't really need voice chat for raids for the most part. It's more convenient to have voice chat for sure, but they're not necessary, especially for savages. Plugins can help you a ton more.
A-arent these illegal? Where can I find them?
Do they work like something like Weakauras or do they "play" for you all the way?
Oh anon, please don't tell me you fell for the ff14 players don't use mods/ plugins?
I didn't fall for it but honestly never used it because I'm too lazy to look for them.
It isn't the case with "legal" mods as they're way more accessible.
But I'm tired of pretending they don't exist and want to do more high-end content.
There is no anti-cheat in the game so you're fine using them. It's a Don't ask don't tell situation, you don't announce you're using them and you won't get nuked.
First you'll need to download something called the Dalamud Launcher
if there are anons with a guide on how to install plugins-mods please drop it as I don't have one, and it would be easier for anon to understand for me to explain through autistic ramblings.
Download the dalamud launcher, you'll need to connect/ pair it to your account once you've down that you can access plugins through the launcher itself while you're in game, there'll be two more settings options on your settings menu when you open it up and you can browse through that. There are other mods that aren't connected with the Dalamud launcher, like ACT which is the DPS metre, you can download that seperatly, just use google and you'll find out how.
https://heliosphere.app/guide/beginner
This should tell you everything, I'm not sure what weakauras is but I can tell you that the plugins do not "play" for you. There ARE plugins that make your combos easier and I'm fine with that, I don't use em' however.
Isn't UwU literally the easiest ultimate by a wide margin
From Aus and play on NA, I tried doing a current Extreme when EW released but some of the more modern mechanics are just too quick and I kept getting clipped due to lag+server tick, put me off raiding because I'm a dead pretty much dead weight.
Ultimate/Savage seems impossible, heard people have to do special strats in NA if they have an ausgay in their group, seems like burden.
>lag server+tick
my friend have you heard of NoClippy and XIVAlexander ?
m-mods?! I'M PURE!
Those only help you with your rotation.
>what's your excuse anon?
I don't raid.
Thanks to the sheer number of people dying in roulettes with them, Ultimate weapons and titles are meaningless a few weeks after world first.
It's not fun anymore
TEA feels nothing like Alex Savage; that's when I really started to feel disillusioned with the game's design choices for how the raids were put together
DSR just wasn't fun to prog when "that guy" kept fricking up Nidhogg, and add on the fight being half "gorillion AoE/debuff intermission" and half target dummy was just not fun for me
Didn't even bother trying for TOP, or any savage since; they look like I've already done them in different arrangements at this point
Hackaguchi. Why do you still pretend this moron matters? He stopped making console games before 2012. His Terra Wars/Terra Battle mobile games flopped so badly he needed a handout from Tim Cook to fund his last game. Mistwalker probably went under without anyone knowing.
Terra battle was the best mobile game I've ever played along with the chaos rings series. I miss it every other month.
Is that Betty guy?
The moment Sakaguchi destroyed Yoshida.
Tank mains > DPS mains
What a chad
I'm convinced she's like a cia plant after all that fricking ukraine shilling
if so then 90% of the people on the internet are as well, she's a standard brainwashed norm and probably did the same exact shit for le covid.
TOP completely broke her. The game is healing.
What to these peope do when their stream number/revenue plummet?
Do they have to find some menial job?
I suppose the majority of them don't bank copious amount of cash like the biggest ones.
>What to these peope do when their stream number/revenue plummet?
Bikinistream or Onlyfans
For Zepla she's gone back to WoW, her viewer numbers are a quarter and still going lower what she was regularly getting from the end of SB until TOP. She's going around different games to try and see what community will adopt her now FFXIV's is done with her.
She probably should have done that in the first place, who the frick actually likes 14 streams outside of like week 1 groups and world first, this game fricking sucks ass to watch.
Is WoW actually any good if you never played it before? I was thinking of trying the game out since we're in content drought until Dawntrail.
No, not really. I would advise against it.
What other mmos would you guys suggest then? GW2? BDO?
For me personally I just wouldn't play multiple mmos. Assuming you play 14. Unless you don't have a life or a job. In which case, I would suggest picrel
I think it's okay to take a break from MMOs in general for a little while if you're burning out. In the end, they all boil down to the same thing.
Personally I went on a break before 6.4 and I plan on coming back when the expansion is on the near horizon, and I haven't touched any other MMOs during that time.
SWTOR.
I've been trying GW2 but find the combat too floaty. I thought less buttons would make it more meaningful but it feels it matter even less what you press unless you minmax the passive buffs shit gives.
I'm playing ESO and I'm having a decent time (but i can understand why people dislike it)
High level combat is shit.
But you can do perfectly without even touching veteran dungeons.
If you want something has some really good story with your mmo unironically I'd recommend Star Wars the Old Republic, the Imperial Agent, Bounty Hunter, Sith Inquisitor are some of the best character stories you'll get in an mmo. It's fully voice acted stuff as well, no reading needed, you get companions and they'll fight with you and you can kick them out of your shit permanently if one of them annoys you, you can also romance in that game. The game itself is set up basically it plays like a WoW clone but the story and setting in that game up to a certain story beat I won't spoil is some really good stuff.
A lot smaller playerbase but it's very active still.
How is the service in TOR? I know it's F2P now, but it's egregious in how it locks QoL behind paywalls or you're fine as long as you get one expansion or something?
You can play the entire stories completely free, stuff like titles and certain legendary gear is locked behind pay walls, levelling is slow, and there are other pay walled shit but you can do most of content free. There are dungeons and raids, they're nothing brilliant but it's fun, World bosses as well in the Zones. I don't remember too much more, I think I might download it myself and give it a playthrough again while waiting for 7.0
Not really, the problem with WoW is the community there is shit, they'll expect you to know what you're doing, know how to gear, they get annoyed at you if you haven't done the content before and I'm not even talking about Endgame raiding, but simple levelling dungeons. It's why most people who are playing the game are returning players and not new blood, the game is not even remotely friendly or offers anything to a new player.
Not unless you got a friend to play with. But if you do, could be fun
WoW is very inconsistent with questlines if you're used to XIV's MSQ structure.
For example, if a new raid tier patch comes up, you will be able to access the questline leading to fight Trogdor IV in this tier even if you don't know who he is because you didn't do the previous tier, when Trogdor IV was introduced.
Leveling is also a little bit all over the place in some routes, but that's sort of inevitable after.
Many class mechanics are based on procs instead of double weaving copious amounts of OGCD.
Content is structured with various tiers of difficulty. On the one hand this helps aggravate the gear threadmill situatioon, on the other hand you can find you sweetspot for difficulty, instead of the XIV situation you have normal braindead content and absurd Savage difficulty spike.
However people expect you to know every fricking thing in a instance and will refuse to explain it to you (there's a menu for reading that). Tanking and Healing is way harder in most content.
>Many class mechanics are based on procs instead of double weaving copious amounts of OGCD.
Part of me thinks the reason why there's so many fricking procs in modern WoW is compensation for the removal of RNG miss/dodge/parry/resist/etc, but it really just made the gameplay autistic instead.
its because people playing wow started to gravitate to only playing classes with buttons that glow
thats why there's an addon called weakaura that plays the game for you and why everyone just bots if they run into any semblance of gameplay
mmos are for highschool drama, nothing else
>threadmill
I'm seeing this ESL/autocorrect word much more in the last year, I wonder why
You will either love or hate classic, its worth a try for just the one months sub.
Cant recommend retail though.
lol captcha
Try it. It's very different. Free trial, though as not generous as XIV's is decent enough.
isnt the free trial like 2-3 hours?
The trial level cap is 20 which can be reached during a lunch break if the players has MMO experience, but I think there's enough for new to WoW to experience.
i mean, i cant consider it decet myself, i guess you would at least get a feel for the combat itself in that time.
Should I go Arms of Fury? I like the simpler Arms one weapon schtick, but it feels like it's meme at dpsin for PvE.
Fury is probably better. Or am I mistaken?
I can't tank in WoW yet, people expect too much of you and keeping mobs in place is hectic.
Absolutely worth it. It has so much content and is incredibly active right now. Retail is in a very good place, don't believe the psychopaths who hate anything that isn't FFXIV. I'd personally recommend Classic SoD but Dragonflight is worth looking at also. They're both very different games at core though.
If you like what you see in this picture, go for it.
one of the worst fricking games I have ever had the pleasure of fricking playing. Just look at any wow streamers and see what they are doing to see the gameplay.
There is a big fricking reason why NORMIES are never talking about wow, sure they talk about "yeah I played it in the past" but they never praise it or anything.
In fact I have never seen wow getting a fricking award for doing anything, that is how mid the game is. ignore the horrible new player experience and etc etc.
Dragonflight is much better than Endwalker.
Sorry but it’s true.
You tell em fellow wowsissie, haters to the left!
the biggest and most successful mmo of all time doesn't need constant praise, anon.
I don't play WoW anymore and dislike it nowadays after retrying both in Legion and BfA, but the levels of copium or wishful thinking people have about WoW being irrelevant is off the charts.
Meanwhile.
>DROPS DROPS DROPS
>If I die before 60 I will gift 3000 subs
So these people really are just baiting people in with 'rewards'.
>i'm depressed
MAYBE BECAUSE YOU'VE SHACKLED YOURSELF TO SHILLING WOW, homosexual
What does DROPS mean?
You connect your twitch account to your <game> account and watch for x hours to earn cosmetic rewards in <game>. It's a form of marketing used to drive engagement with streams and the game. I think game devs pay twitch to run these things, and all the streamers get more viewers (and ad/sub revenue) because of people wanting shinies.
But doesnt that imply that since the drops are for that specific game, all those viewers are WoW players.
There are legit drops goblins on Twitch that just collect shit into their Drops inventory, even for games they don't play.
Mostly wow players yeah. There are also people who just get the drops in case they ever decide to resub, and a certain amount of viewbotting too - streamers want to be in the #1 spot because that's where the lazy drop getters will go
This is a new low in my book.
You will conveniently ignore this post by the way
I was not implying XIV is worse or better than WoW, doing this is shit for both.
You kind of are because you conveniently ignore one and shit on the other. At least in WoW's case the viewers get some stuff for free
When was the last time you received something for free from Square? Even for the black chocobo you had to pay the fricking streamers
Bunch of yellow israelites
Ignored because was ignorant. Thanks for bringing that post up.
The only thing Square "gave" us is that Fantasia for finishing ARR.
How generous of them. Now buy the $25 balloons off the mogstation
I bet devs regret giving that single fantasia for free. lmao
I'm sure they do.
After so many additions since ARR, another single Fantasia would be reasonable.
They put Hyur Midlander face with a stubble as a separate one, instead.
The best thing about FFXIV's shop is everything is so overpriced and almost everything is so lame I'll never ever consider buying anything.
Not at all. The free fanta is a calculated thing, like how drug dealers might give a sample. Lots of new players might not know about Fantasias. And when they get one they ask around and find out about the game's shop since the shop is not able to be viewed ingame.
>When was the last time you received something for free from Square?
Every single event, so almost once a month.
[Drops] is a twitch lingo for success chud... go play your dead troony game zivtroon, yoshitpiss lost

anon, square was sponsoring streamers to watch the fricking fanfest
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1956461373?t=0h34m59s
companies to this all the time, don't be hypocritical
the difference here is that, in fffxiv's case, the streamers pocket all the money, and the viewers get jack shit for free, because everything goes into the cash shop
>Just look at any wow streamers and see what they are doing to see the gameplay.
Never played WoW before but I decided to go do this. I checked out the top dozen streams by viewercount and saw
>roughly 1/3 standing around doing nothing (waiting for mob spawns?)
>roughly 1/3 spam killing overworld mobs (questing/levelling?), it looked like they were just pressing 1111111
>roughly 1/3 doing some sort of boss fights/raiding
Only that last third looked engaging, but what I saw looked very simplistic compared to ffxiv bosses, and it was also ugly with addon clutter all over the screen and shitty animations
>In fact I have never seen wow getting a fricking award for doing anything
They got that award for LGBT stories or whatever.
Not kidding.
I stopped playing after MoP but tried coming back a few times and it didnt stick. Its hard to describe but its very 'gamey'. It doesnt feel immersive at all. The gameplay is definitely very smooth, and it does have a lot of max level content in terms of dungeons and raiding. But it doesnt really make you feel like you're part of the game world. Its very "make bar go up" oriented at endgame. The zones do look pretty though.
I'd imagine they just reduce the lifestyle creep and live beneath their prior means. A streamer with any following in the thousands will still make enough to earn a living while working on their own schedule with no commute and doing a fraction of the work and stress required for wageslaving.
She would have to get completely cancelled not half-assed cancelled to go back to whatever the frick it was she was doing before she became a streamer.
Women also have the added benefit of simps who will return to look at her whatever the content is.
onlyfans
NO ONE is interested in her making an onlyfans.
I was because I though she was one of these short chicks with huge booba.
They are nice until they hit the wall and become broad shouldered matronas.
But it seems she's square like a dude.
I mean look st this pic
there's a reason she avoids showing anything body related. For the most part she keeps it face.
idk man , the 2b cosplay was pretty dope.
There are a lot of porn addicted Hag enjoyers out there anon, be careful what you wish for.
goddamn she's ugly
No way is she that rich in 70s wrinkles while being in her 30s
Anon, pic related is only 32 but she's devout vegan. Emma Watson, also a vegan you should see what she looks like now as well. They're lacking nutrients the body needs.
I always have this feeling European women age way faster. I noticed such traits in a lot of 25 year-olds in Germany and Portugal. They are very pretty but look older than their age.
t. Third Worlder surrounded by thick latinas still going strong after 32
There are plenty of European women both famous and not who age gracefully, but the point here is Zepla, and that Harry Potter actress are Vegans, being vegan ages you, that along with drugs, alcohol and smoking and too much time in the Sun.
Maybe these shitty ideas like veganism are more widespread in richer countries than where I'm from and why I felt this about european women.
Also I'm talking about "regular" people. It's even weirder when actresses or other people with means simply fall badly.
>50 years to gryffindor
Dear Bahamut, what the hells
Insta 'don't recommend channel' when I see someone put their own name in the title.
clip channels almost always aren't run by the streamer
You would think that she would play her cards carefully especially since she had to flee Ukraine.
She made the troony shills fume, and for that alone, Hogwarts aside, she is extremely based
I know she's a vegetarian but damn her body sucks. Literal teenage boy bod.
>face,holes and general female features of a hag

I'm pretty sure a lot of sickos would be into it.

>Faking drama with other XIV grifters to make up for the lack of content

>Faking drama youtube grifters are ok when WoW youtubers do it...
>"Companies are bad and want only your money"
>Videos are nothing but clickbait and rage farming and grifting for Blizzard.
I hate this fricking old hag so much. Can't she frick off back to grifting in WoW already?
she needs to suck off some SE dicks to get Dawntrail media tour access so she can play the game first, like other ffxiv grifters/streamers/youtubers... think of her wallet, she can't start an OF since she tankbusted that wall
>Dawntrail media tour access
She'll never get invited to a media tour ever again. The japanese and SE especially don't frick around when it comes to brand loyalty.
Is that why this Xenosys chap is being overly protective of the game now? Almost simping.
>overly protective
Calling out moronic grifters is based and his stance on the issues that the game has hasn't changed in half a decade.
Xeems is genuinely the only big FFXIV streamer who actually plays the game and knows what he's talking about. When the whole "EW is bad!" grift started he was one of the very few who called other grifters out on their shit and he has earned a lot of points from me for doing that.
Wesker's video was good and called out a lot of "HW SUPER DUPER GOOD" people.
Oh absolutely, which makes it even more noticable that Xeno covered that video too and agreed with pretty much all of it.
That video is completely invalidated the moment he revealed he didn't actually play during HW.
If you weren't there you have no authority to speak on it like you were.
>all the points which are factually correct are invalid because the video creator didn't experience it for himself, even though his arguments aren't based on personal experience at all
I played during HW and he's right about pretty much everything. Now what?
Well I played during HW and he's wrong about pretty much everything.
Name something he is supposedly wrong about and I will disprove it. Go on, do it. I doubt you even watched most of his video in the first place.
Well, I don't know if he played in HW or not.
But I know I did and he was right about everything.
Correct and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Throughout XIV's Shadowbringers he was shitting on XIV hard enough to not get invited to the Endwalker media tour. Fast forward to now he's sucking up hard to get in.
I don't see why though, the state of the game is complete dogshit and Dawntrail won't improve things.
>Throughout XIV's Shadowbringers he was shitting on XIV hard enough to not get invited to the Endwalker media tour.
He wasn't invited to the Media Tour because of his ToS ban and because he cursed too much. He criticized the game 10 years ago and he criticizes the game now, nothing has changed. You never actually watched any of his videos or streams for more than 10 minutes, guaranteed.
>Xeno, can you give us your opinion about Endwalker Gunbreaker?
>What about the P8S incident?
>And TOP?
I hope you do realize that these are things that he genuinely plays up and jokes about.
>h-h-he was just joking
pathetic
What? Are you moronic?
>y-y-you're just moronic.
You're moronic enough to simp for a streamer.
Get the frick out of my sight.
How is that even simping?
Stutter speech makes you wrong by default.
Yeah bro he was just joking that WAR did no damage for all of EW and suddenly stopped joking after it was buffed lol.
That wasn't what that post said though. Seems like you're now bringing up random things that he complained about as some kind of "own".
The fact that it was buffed just shows that he was correct, btw.
But I thought he was a little jokester? Are you saying that he *gasps* actually has strong opinions about poor design and isn't just le bald man rage????? Quite the contradiction to
>he's joking about these specific things
>that means he cannot ever be serious about anything!
Just say that you hate streamers on principle, I can genuinely respect that. What I can't respect is when you start spouting lies and nonsense.
That's not a contradiction though. The two posts talk about completely different things.
This. The whole "Xenos hates FFXIV!" is a myth usually brought up by WoWfugees who didn't know about the FFXIV community before it became big in NA.
I don't watch him much but he seems reasonable and talks about both pros and cons. I'd say his stance seems fair.
She's been "grifting" ffxiv since Heavensward, ie longer than you've been playing
She should move on then.
she stopped grifting because le game is dead and she played genshin and wow for a while and bold of you to assume how long I've been playing lmao but you do you
based if true
Now she’s all “Go wow, 14 is doodoo”.
I'm a legacy player you tourist and im sick of these wowfugees shitting up the place. These vermind need to get gone already.
Sisters.... I'm hearing rumors from credible sources that Yoshida is utterly embarrassed by Season of Discovery and Dawntrail might be cancelled....
cute bellybutton
I was hoping she had female features but it's build like a man instead. Frick this shit.
I want you.
Meant to tag this instead.

Because CBU3 are cowards for not making races that already use player models as player characters. i.e. Lupin
They really should have added in Lupin, there was no excuse other than laziness.
Lupin were only added because they clearly wanted to do more with Galuf but the Eureka storyline fell apart. We'll probably get to see them again in Dawntrail.

How come xeno whatever his name keeps having a solid 1.5k viewers everytime he streams while pretty much only streaming XIV? Why can't other streamers compete?
Pareto's Law. The top 20% best streamers get 80% of the views.
He just happened to be at the right place at the right time and did good enough content to solidify his viewerbase.
And I don't mean he was just lucky. He was prepared enough to make good use of this opportunity.
Many other streamers had a view spike but couldn't capitalize on it and have a bigger base even after their "spotlight" faded, thus returning to previous numbers.
Xeno used his chance to actually grow despite fluctuations.
This, a lot of FF14 streamers are personality voids, there is nothing there they just sit and stream the game and hope that's enough which is why they sit around 100, 150 viewers at most.
Arthars had the opportunity to be a large Streamer but he can't stop himself being a raid log shitter, and instead of doing anything even remotely entertaining he'll just sit and raid for hours and hours, or when there is a new content drop he'll clear it in a day then go play a game his audience have no interest in which happened recently pic related. Arthars was at 1k viewers just one week prior to pic related, he was streaming the 6.5 Criterion Savage.
Xeno is the only one who has really taken the opporunity gifted him by the balls and done well with it.
Pyromancer had 5k subs at one point but kept having baby rage meltdown moments at FF14, exactly what he was doing when he played WoW and lost his audience, it went all the way down to 100 viewers, not even subs until he went back to WoW.
isn't xenos into cuckoldry though?
Don't forget that Xeno has capitalized way harder on YouTube clips than the others. He's been starting to follow the Asmongold model, and it's paying off.
I can see if Xeno keeps up what it's doing, double dipping on Youtube and Twitch he'll grow into a really big channel especially with the drop of 7.0 will work wonders for him. He's going to the JP fanfest so there's content. I'm not a fan, but I like to keep up to date on the communty/ social medi aspect of FF14 to gauge interest, to see what's being said. He seems at the moment to be the guy most primed to be the tithead of the game for the West at least.
He was in the right place at the right time, but it didn't happen overnight. He's been Streaming ff14 since 2.0.
>pretty much only streaming XIV
he doesn't, that's why. he streams plenty of other games and does react content. nobody can be a successful streamer only doing xiv
He coattailed Asmon hard, he was a nobody despite being the hardcore raider persona since the start until SHB. Used to only have raid clears and parse run vids, became a react youtuber with the asmon power vacuum of 2021.
All the other xiv eclebs before the wowfugees pretty much quit

Most girls I met ingame were either already busy with dozen of simps on discord, or straight out too autistic to socialize.
Can confirm met a 25 year old Turkish girl very cute yes I can confirm she was a girl she was shy at first but then opened up we went raiding together in Normal mode on content she hadnt done but then she started telling me about her FC and orbiters how they were drama fighting and she was looking for back up more friends to help her fight them red flags immediately went up I blocked her after that, I want no part of an orbiting simp party. I'm here to play the game, make some connections, enjoy what's on offer not a part of some weird drama fanfic parade.
I've met a fair few older women too, its like the MMO 'guildmom' but actual humans instead of being narcissistic parodies of humans, it took me by surprise how normal they were.
Final Fantasy 11-2 Extra Doover Edition
why are trust healers such garbage
how is this trash supposed to teach people how to tank properly
Trusts aren't there to teach anything.
They do show you individual dungeon mechanics
Fair enough.
This, trust are there for you to soak in the atmosphere of the dungeon at your own pace.
my own pace is to wall to wall and they can't even keep me alive while not doing any dps
then roll warrior or dont use trusts you absolute moron.
so what you're saying is that trusts don't let you do dungeons at your own pace, only the pace that intern-kun bothered to playtest
what im saying is, is that you're a moron, anon.
>carelessly makes obviously false statement that's easily contradicted
>y-you're a moron
classic response
actually read my post or frick off you moron.
>trust are there for you to soak in the atmosphere of the dungeon at your own pace
the your own pace part is obviously false because trusts can only go one pace
The 'your own pace' part is contingent on your desire to soak in the atmosphere, if you have no desire to soak in the atmosphere then obviously the statement doesn't apply to you. fricking hell anon.
>you cannot w2w and soak in the atmosphere
absurdly false statement
they are certainly at odds, there can be exceptions, but absurdly false is absurdly hyperbolic.
why would they be at odds? you do not need to pay attention to the combat while doing w2w so there is no way that doing w2w would affect your ability to enjoy the scenery
nobody says 'soak in the atmosphere' and expects 'as fast as physically possible' as an association. cease, or roll warrior.
>nobody says 'soak in the atmosphere' and expects 'as fast as physically possible' as an association
this could be true if killing trash mobs was the only way to soak in the atmosphere and once you are done, it's over, you can't experience anything anymore. which is obviously an idiotic thing to say
Well now I don't even know where this conversation has gone, since I've never implied that.
the only difference doing w2w makes is killing trash. everything else you experience in a dungeon is the same. killing trash faster doesn't give you less time to look at the surroundings. killing trash faster doesn't give you less time to interact with the interactables, if anything it gives you more. killing trash faster doesn't cut the boss fights any shorter than killing trash slowly
and yet when you are running around with other players you are expected to progress at an appropriate pace, especially if there is the expectation that other players have already done the dungeon. it has nothing to do with how fast or how much trash you can pick up, it has to do with the fact that nobody is waiting on you to progress, your tangental narrative has nothing to do with this aside from the implication that 'your pace' is consistently the fastest it can be, which, good for you man.
why are you bringing other players into the picture? the entire argument is whether trusts let you dictate the pace, what the expectations are in a non-trust setting is completely irrelevant
>why are you bringing other players into the picture?
because trusts, the single-player option, is the alternative to the more commonly used version that involves other players. what the frick that is the entire comparison here anon. have we really just been talking at each other with two completely seperate conversations? because I refuse to believe you think that roulette with other players is a better method at dictating your own pace than trusts. The expectations of non-trusts is the entire point anon.
>because I refuse to believe you think that roulette with other players is a better method at dictating your own pace than trusts
??? that was never the question. it can be true that both trusts and other players don't let you run at your own pace. this is a false dilemma
this is because you are constantly ignoring the contingent part of the original point.
>to soak in the atmosphere
to soak in the atmosphere anon, to soak in the atmosphere, trusts are specifically there to enable you to progress through a dungeon without any expectation from other players to progress before you have had time to look at what you like for as long as you like, wall to wall has nothing to do with this conversation. you have obsessively honed in on the phrasing of 'your own pace' in a completely bad-faith manner man.
that is not what 'your own pace' means at all and i already clearly dismissed the aspect of soaking in the atmosphere being affected by the decision to make the pace a little faster by killing trash faster, which trusts don't let you do in some instances. it's not my fault if you used the wrong words to explain yourself, i'm not a mind reader
>to soak in the atmosphere
>at your own pace
not to run the dungeon at your own pace
not to kill mobs at your own pace
specifically to soak in the atmosphere, at your own pace.
I'd have hoped considering it was only a single sentence you'd have been able to piece the two threads together. but you honed in on the last 3 words and worked everything backwards from there. sorry i didn't extrapolate every detail of a simple statement for you.
the fact that players don't let you dictate the pace to them doesn't mean that trusts let you do it either lol
I don't know what the frick you all are arguing about but the point of trusts is to get people with weird social anxiety through MSQ dungeons and add some NPC flavor text to the experience. They are intentionally shitty to prevent you from soloing dungeons forever and farming gear, because yoshida wants you to actually use the duty finder.
when they start attacking you that's when you know they have zero argument - he's defending a broken system and backed himself into a wall
i remember doing the aery with trusts as a tank and the chirugeon npc would constantly get interrupted by mob aoes and get me killed on that trash pull after the first boss
They're designed for the people who ship their wol woth thancred or graha.
alphinaud is especially trash
they do in XI so why not here
>they do in XI so why not here
>copy mechanics
>can't get it right

lmao
of all the ecelebs who were critical of endwalker, the chinese lead dev of xiv was probably the most measured and sensible, although he had a few takes that i still disagreed with (island sanctuary is fine because he had zero expectations that it would be good anyway, ffxiv is good because it's very well-balanced)
>island sanctuary is fine because he had zero expectations that it would be good anyway

No, they have a dedicated team for that
No, your heroes aren't perfect
Actual ultimate raiders frick up mechanics in normal content all the time too
When you do savage/ultimate content so much going back to normal mode is like doing the fight from scratch all over again, the mechanics are completely different.

Not often, but I do. Why shouldn't I?
Yes.
To deny yourself silly fun is like those late teens/early 20s guys that try to be grumpy and grouchy and wear leather and chains all the time and pretend to be miserable and emotionally wise, only to turn into a 10yo boy again the second grandma bakes them an apple pie.

Imagine in your minds eye, the pairing of the picture and Venat singing softly
That is the puniest fricking sword I've ever seen goddamnit jamjam this kills my boner, draw something with some THICKNESS.
why does everyone wanna frick wolazem so bad?
Almost nobody in this game talks about any sort of relationship, so I'd wager everyone is ultra horny all the time.
Wrong,
Also Alisaie is canonically confirmed as the Wols significant other, just before EW released YoshidaP gave an interview where he confirmed that Alisaie was the Wols gf/partner and Alphinaud was the fem Wols Husbando.
>just before EW released YoshidaP gave an interview where he confirmed that Alisaie was the Wols gf/partner
You mean when he noticed the Alisaiegays in the chat and laughed at them?
There's no need to be bitter that Shtola is not the chosen one's waifu.
There's no need to be bitter that Yoshida laughed at you lol
>LIMIT BREKS IN YOUR WAY
Yeah with how long you took to answer I can believe you had to channel your LB ha ha ha h- *gets obliterated*

What?
>Anon throws a limit break without knowing what it does.
I use the tank LB because nobody uses that crap in dungeons. Just for the looks and at the final boss.
Haters gonna hate.
Seat of SacrificeEX, Tank LB or I'll slap you.
That's the best part of getting SoF and Alexander in Duty Finder.
They're the only regular content I remember forces tanks LB'ing for the win.

Real question is how is it possible that there are people left in the game who DON'T want to frick WoL. Realistically speaking, we shouldn't be able to take a single step in any city without fans crowding us.
That's cause they're saving the romance for the opposite gender shard wol harem that's gonna turn up in Dawntrail
>opposite gender shard wol harem
>tfw your entire harem disappears the first time you try to frick them
>You got immensely more powerful, but at what cost?
Meteor is to moronic to noticed, if he didn't have autism he would have gamings largest harem.
Are they actually blind testing their content or do they already have it solved for them? I don't think any of the directors actually know how miserable progging is, especially in DF.
They have it solved and play on god mode and then ship the fights with more damage and health. Granted, the intended strat may be worse than something the players discover which makes it much easier.

HOWEVER
>SE will outright state that said characters can't die in any shape any more
Would you take the deal?
If they didn't die in EW then they never will.
There isn't a single negative thing in that deal.
I spent the 10th anniversary unsubbing from XIV and subbing to WoW instead tbh.
Even got the epic edition of the new expansion.
Why is Shtola so perfect and why is SE doing nothing with her?
Full, immersive VR can't come fast enough.
They should let us EB NPCs already, people have been asking for it for years now.
All streamers should frick off, they're a plague on the industry.
Thankfully 95% of them have because they can't monetise streaming FF14, so we're not infected for 7.0 with Streamer brainrot trying to influence this game like WoW has with Asmongold and Bellular being loud homosexuals always moaning at their game. Be thankful ff14 doesn't have that, or at least with Arthars and Xenos the devs don't give a shit what they say.
based, I recall game being less infected by "le streamerino said this" back in ARR/HW and even in SB I only bothered looking for MrBrappy's videoguides because my static asked me to. ShB did unrepairable damage to the game regardless of the success
Its honestly sad to see the wowgrifters that made a living on ex wow players obsessing over doomposting like a needy ex girlfriend discovering it doesnt work in other games so they are desperately trying to manufacture drama like dollar store keemstars.
But we don't care. We will never ever care or watch that shit and all they can do is seethe about it.
What? Why? Aren't streamers le based?!
>What if I told you... THE ALLAGANS DID EVERYTHING IT'S THE FRICKING ALLAGANS
an exception because i really like his meltdowns over trivial shit and I recall someone posting a meltdown vid because his brother didn't like his in-game ff14 house
He liked allagans because they were in his mind titans.
Still wasn't as bad as Nobbel who kept trying to predict shadowbringers to look like le ebig loremind only to keep getting it wrong and then kept mad at the game because he thought "the game is getting it wrong" and as the credits rolled on 5.0 he spent the whole time argueing with his stream chat about how emet selch was the worst writing he had ever seen purely because every prediction he had was wrong and he was laughed at so badly he slinked back to wow to make cope videos about danusers sloplore.
>Getting mad at Warriors of Darkness.
>Not even reading the dialogue and yelling warriors of losers and frick you to the characters.
It's like he turned 10 suddenly.
I think he put so much of his life into WoW he played FFXIV for the grift but was desperate and even needed it to be bad for some massive self cope.
Meanwhile Asmongold to this day is lurking FFXIV tittystreamers and doing golden saucer so at least hes true to his brand.
Delicious asian tiddy.

Reminder that Asmongold is a character while Zachary Bittenbinder is a weeb struggling to hide his power level.
>Asmongold: Have you ever done any of the ultimates
Was this recent? Why is he such a fricking Coomer?
he is a middle aged israeli american man. he was born to be a coomer.
He went from "defeat all ultimates" to "Defeat TEA" and now to "defeat any ultimate."
Holy shit I forgot all about Nobbel. Glad to hear he crashed and burned.
He's now back to making videos about how dragonflight was bussin comfykino all along. Its sad. He sounds like he's been up all night crying in his videos.
For a fricking videogame.
what are you all hoping for in the next encyclopedia coming this month?
a reminder that it has been five or six years since the last volume
there are also a projected 304 pages in this thing
Speaking of dooming streamers, Arthars is at it again.
He was celebrating XIV's death during Shadowlands beta so much.
Kek, in Shadowlands? Jesus fricking christ. I don't get why he's still playing the game if this is his opinion of it.
I didn't need to know. Nobody needed to know. Why do you know? Why do you care? Stop giving the c**ts attention.
>I base my opinions of a game based on a streamer

The only raids that matter are Eureka and DRS.
it will be forever funny how people are willing to
1. join a discord
2. abide by the rules and queues
3. listen to some troony who is the leader
4. do everything by the book
for BA and DRS
but are completely unwilling to do the same for savage and ultimate, citing that they dont have a discord or they are not willing to deal with trannies
BA and DRS are large-scale raids where you messing up isn't that big of a deal, that's why.
>got house when they first came out
>got my first demolition warning email this week
i like Endwalker but the lack of a bozja/eureka keeping me coming back after capping every job is obvious.
Bro your Criterion?!
I get it, none of the newer content did it for me either. I actually really started to dislike how they make fights at this point, more and more convoluted puzzle fights just fricking suck.
I still havent done everything in Rokkan and did the pixie one twice. They just aren't grabbing me.
It feels like they really took the time between 6.0 and 7.0 to do the backend stuff. Trust for 1-90, revamping pvp, new data centers and so on and so forth and put the real manpower into 7.0 which i guess if you have to do it for the longterm health its the best time but i am more than ready for Tu'ral at this point.
Like shit isn't today the 2nd anniversary of 6.0 or something crazy? its wierd that Sharlayan still feels like a new hub but its going to be the current one longer than any other.
>Marketed as a MMORPG
>Keeps adding features that are anti-mmo
>Full of people who dopn't socialise
Yikes. Had more socialising in the 15m of WoW than I have the past 4 years of XIV.
Im honestly so fricking bored of raids being
>You will fight on a floating cirlce or square and you can fall off xD
It's so fricking uninspiring.
Thats the trouble with raids. I had the same feeling with WoW circa mists of pandaria when they added dungeon maps and it just highlighted that you remove the skybox and it comes down to
>"is this a square fight or a round fight?"
>mmo dev: haha what? its a good fight sir
>"it was a square fight"
We need more shit inspired by FF bosses. Like remember the underground tunnel boss in FF9 where you are retreating from the boss that slowly pushes forwards and its a dps race?
But then steps of faith probably proved people are too stupid for that sort of thing.
I wish for more solo content. Just because it's a MMORPG doesn't mean that I have to tolerate whatever bullshit everyone is going to start crying about. Whenever I join a FC it barely survives a year because of some le drama:
>RP FC: Officers who were "dating" break up and now whole fc has to hear about it and pick sides but it doesn't matter because fc gets disbanded
>PVE FC: people were late in clearing stuff so they got kicked because they also had irl stuff to do. FC officers are basically a static and when one can't do raid because irl shit happened, static starts crying about not having any Black person to carry them and the start kicking even more people or disband
>Casual FC: join discord so you can join our drama there too because we have some lgbqtrstwafhasd people here who have issues with missgendering and meds and we have to listen their ranting on vc... what do you mean the incel chud officer kicked them and called them "fricking trannies"? Leader, kick him and invite them back.
I wish I had solo criterion and savage...
Why doesn't Square add something like Delves for 7.0?
Shit like this isn't fun.
That is immensely fun. They really put all the best mechanics in criterion, and then no one touched the content lol.
>and then no one touched the content lol
Wonder why. Personally I hated every second of doing this shit. Having to study a fricking guide for every boss, get used to the fricking god awful execution and trying not to get frustrated at my friends who were way slower at picking things up. Like I am glad the content has fans and by the looks of it the nips love that shit, but I just am so tired of it. It actually makes the fact that classes are entirely brain dead to play a boon because 99% of the time you have to play the next esoteric version of timed simon says.
Esoteric simon says is based though the problem is it’s not individually done. They already solved this problem by making harder content where the deaths are on you and not instantly wiping the whole group. Leave that for ultimates and actual savage raids.
>checking guides for criterion
this content is at its peak when you blind prog it with friends so maybe try to clear it this way. Ofc its annoying to memorize puzzle strats when you don't get first hand experience
It is.
>She asks to go on private adventures with WoL
>Ghost her and do it with random nobodies
Still mad.
It's not fair
we have our Azem crystal, we can keep summoning phantoms in bawdglam for adventuring and bonding
XIV could use actual shit in the map zones that isn't fricking fates/gathering/treasure map.
Doing elites, dreamsurge, world quests etc in WoW recently made me realise there is fricking no point in going to these zones after MSQ.
Elites = Hunts
Dreamsurge and World Quests are horrendous garbage and I genuinely prefer dead zones over that shit.
Hunts aren't even remotely the same.
>Wahh I hate content
Spoken like a real XIVtroon.
>IMMEDIATELY lets the mask slip
You Blizzcucks simply can't help yourself, damn.
Yeah heaven forbid I ask for stuff to do in a game you pay $15 a month for.
Oh the humanity.
Sorry buddy, but the "XIVtroon" was too obvious. Try again next thread.
They need a lot of work, and not just additional evergreen content. Like for each type of mob, there's one little pocket of the zone where that thing spawns. Most of the time it's not even set up all that thematically(i.e. fish by water). Why aren't they sprinkled around everywhere? Why do they give little to no reward when killed, and instead of upping drop rates on the few that do have mats, SE up and fricking added a new FATE currency to buy them directly? Why aren't there zone and world drops, to give an excitement factor to killing shit?
They need to redo the mob loot system. Outside of farming the sheep in coerthas for wool in HW and the toads and tigers for leather in StB when was the last time outside a quest or hunt you actually went out and killed mobs?
Meanwhile in FFXI mobs have real loot tables that can include fricking SPELLS and shit. We need drops to be interesting.
I don't think RNG Farming is a venue XIV will veer into in any foreseeable future.
It's an old design reminiscent of older korean MMOs full of grindfest.
At worst they willl monetize XIV in another way, like the current GAAS trend.
At best they will make these mobs drop relevant tokens which can be traded for the desired reward, not unlike Tomes.
>people finally realizing that Xenos is based
His react content is garbage but at least he actually plays the fricking game.
>Xenos is based
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Calm down Pyromancer.
I'm not much of a streamer guy but this bald dude is entertaining and not whiny. At worst he's defeatist "you won't change the game, just accept it", but still not wrong about it lol.
>defeatist mentality
>based
lol
lmao even
I said entertaining, not based.
I just hope he's not IRL like he's in the game.
"Lol this problem is reallly shitty, but you know what, it's too big, so let's just accept it and do nothing about it."
But I'd rather have a streamer like that than some b***h ass doomer.
Defeatist is being a doomer you fricking moron.
No. Defeatist is sayind you can't change the job rework logic and just hope they don't butcher DRG and AST.
Doomer is saying HURR GAME IS DED, IT'S DED NOBODY PLAYS IT ANYMORE while it's still relatively thriving.
I mean if you call the majority of the playerbase being second life rejects who do nothing but idle in limsa talking as if it's a popularity contest whilst waiting for the "nightclubs" to open so they can erp with other men "thriving" then all power to you.
Yeah you don't sound biased at all and you're definitely not a doomsissy.
I don't, it was just an example to differentiate doomer from defeatist in this context.
But what else is there to do other than idling? Stuff like Party Finders are done through other menus while you're idling wherever. Same for crafting, except you change your character's stance.
There would be stuff to do if they put worthwile content in the map zones. But that will never happen because XIV community hate being away from their town chatrooms.
I understand you and I'd like SE to add such content.
But as things stand, it isn't like this nonexistant content is empty because people would rather eRPG in Limsa. It simply does not exist.
At best you can do some older content for the rewards.
Totally not a doomer at all btw.
second life rejects and afk'ers are still p(l)aying the game and their gameplay(lmao) is considered legit as long as SE doesn't actively do anything against it. They tried with afk-kick timer but they found a way around it.
>the weakest erp/rp and /afk player has spend probably twice as much $ as me lmao
I too can make absurd statements like these.
Why did this post trigger XIV players so hard.
They hated him because he spoke the truth
Honestly the modding has gone too far out of hand.
It wasn't even 10m after the fall guys update and there were videos on twitter off modded characters doing some modded dance animations whilst inside.
>It's so funny bro my modbeast is doing a fortnite emote in fall guys Xddd
because that anon is correct
>say dumb shit
>get laughed at
>"t-triggered!"
>proceed to samegay out of embarrassment
Sure anon. Go seethe harder you got called out.
but that anon is spot on. you can even open the pf and find that the majority of listings are a mix of erp troonery and pure nonsense like "im lonely lf cat gf"
if that is your definition of alive...
Each of these entries is almost always just a single person. You see about ~30 people do something moronic and then project that onto the entire playerbase. Either you're stupid or just shitposting.
>all the different listings for ERP nightclubs are made by 1 person
I meant one person each, obviously.
Almost 60% of the PF last night on Aether were "nightclub" venues.
Can't you filter that crap and just look for actual party finder groups?
Its hard to avoid the shit in the middle of the room, you know
You are specifically opening the "Other" tab instead of high-end. You know exactly what you are doing.
crystals is always about 98% "other", and 1-2 actually doing content. cross dc killed crystal so hard
S-sure anon. Go seethe harder you got called out.
wait a second
>I saw 50 people ERPing in Goldshire, this means nobody is actually playing WoW anymore!
This is your line of reasoning here.
but are those people cluttering the group finder?
That wasn't your argument though. Your argument was that the game is supposedly dead because people do something that you don't like.
the argument is that those aren't the majority of players in wow
And neither are the few guys who see advertising shit in the Other category.
Unfortunately they are right now.
There is absolutely zero reason to be subbed to XIV right now unless you’re one of those erp troons who can’t go a full day without not seeing their modbeast character and posing them for attention on their twitter.
>rules for thee but not for me
Your argument is the exact same for both cases. If 50 people ERPing in WoW don't count as the majority then neither do 50 people ERPing in FFXIV.
To be fair, he tried changing said problems for a few years, but then he realized that he can't do anything about it (which is true) so instead he tries to influence the few things that might actually change.
This, I'm so fricking sick of doomers not just this game but fullstop. Imagine dooming a game or movie or whatever then spending half your fricking life obsessing over it.
cute rabbits and cats are nice.
you ever think about starting an alt on a another server just so you have something to do again?
tried that so me and friends who used to play other rpgs back in the day can play together. Light party mode. Everyone quit, haven't touched that alt since then... rip gyaru bnny
cute bun
>all the malewives but graha are dead and gone now
What did Square enix mean by this?
i'm not gay but i look at Hythlodaeus and i get it.
But Hilda is the woman for me. WHERE IS SHE YOSHI??
>love my WoLbawd and playing dress up
>also love my male selfinsert WoL alt and he feels better immersion wise
>but can't farm shit for both
You mean having to re-farm glams since they're not account-wide and should be?
If you get past the MSQ slog twice, gearing two characters should be okay, since gearing 2-3 jobs isn't that demanding.
The worst thing is being capped by weekly tomes and they're quick to cap and since you're playing two characters, you can gear two jobs twice as fast.
'member when this thread was enjoying pictures of Y'shtola?
I 'member.
Y'shtola is the best thing to happen to FF.
PLAP PLAP PLAP GET RESURRECTED GET RESURRECTED
What is the recommended ping to engage in High-End Duties?
I want to impregnate Y'shtola, hold her afterwards, take responsibility and have a big and happy family.
Either you or her will die of a sudden cancer after twelve years and leave everyone behind.
FAIRY GLAMS WHEN
Now.
shit dead irrelevant game
Keep crying about it for the next 10 years too.
I like FFXI....
Same, I wish I picked up XI earlier instead of pretending I still had hope for ShB and EW
I don't regret my XIV time during ARR-SB though
Drops is so damn lame, pathetic and funny it's like they are saying:
>P-please watch me so you can get free stuff for the game you are playing
Like, they (streamers) aren't already whoring themselves for viewers/views enough, they need this to prostitute themselves more. lmao
I hate what the Internet became. I was fortunate enough to live through it's first years.
I feel like sometime around 2008~2012 the "virtual world" started influencing our "real lives" too much. Frick social media.
>2 months until patch and info
>7 months until expansion
>your reaction image is from something I don't like
>waah waah waah
How fricking new are you?
I hope “she” sees this
Who?
I love FFXIV and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
It's a fun game, both casual and high-end content are approachable, people are just anxious about it.
All the juicy Final Fantasy references and love.
All these classic and awesome Jobs.
The music is lit.
If I'm going to pay to play something online like a moron, it'll be XIV.

That's not even how Square gives people free shit, you fricking moron.
i'm sorry I never played this simon says troony simulator disguised as MMORPG
THEN WHY ARE YOU IN A THREAD OF A GAME YOU DON'T PLAY?
remember. remember us. remember, that we once had lalafell thighs
>DROPS MEANS BLIZZARD IS GIVING ME STUFF FOR FREE
there's no such thing as free in this world
if they are not selling you a product, you're the product. you're number padding used to artificially inflate numbers. that is worth a lot of money in today's world, and they know that
Cope yoshitpiss xivcultist. Go back to your discord with the rest of the /afk discordtrannies and complain about the death of your second life game
