How about you just play the game instead of being a colossal homosexual
>Play MMORPG for the "story"
lel
>Pay to skip story automatically instead of just skipping cutscenes
lame
>"Community" hate skippers
kekw, I bet most of them haters skipped many cutscenes and only watched the "remember us"-tier cutscenes... I'm sure half of this "le storyskippers are bad" community can't even answer a basic plot/lore related question because they speedread or skipped dialogue relevant to that question...
Honestly I don't care about skippers.. unless they are the type to insist they know everything about the story. Those gays can go frick themselves.
FF14's problem is the way it locks features behind the story. Something you can get away with if your players were only going to experience it once.
XIV is a Final Fantasy game first, and an MMO second
If you unironically pay a monthly sub to play this game and you skip the entire Final Fantasy part of the game, there's literally no reason for you to be playing this instead of another MMO
>kekw
Don't you have an asmongoloid react video to watch homosexual?
>asmongoloid
still salty he'll never play this shitfest of a game ever again?
How's "ya boi" doing? must be rough selling his hole to any meme game and any corpo that willing to give him a pittance
Jealous of his success anon? FF14 got its minutes of fame because of him btw...
That's not true at all. He jumped on the bandwagon which is what he's great at doing, he didn't create it. The hype was already skyrocketing.
holy cope
Sorry your headcanon for your favorite streamer isn't reality Anon. When SE expanded the free trial to include the full base game and Heavensward it blew up.
But your headcanon is true because you have the legit source called "My ass", right?
It's called being there.
He wasn't even going to play it at all but it was a donation goal that he reached which tells you all you need to know. The hype going into Endwalker was insanely high, he jumped on the bandwagon.
>The hype was already skyrocketing.
>Hype wasn't enough for shitty grifter like Assmongoloid to keep playing even after HW
That's even more sad, lmao...
Still isn't your friend 🙂
And you still didn't get your meds but you don't see me schizoposting graphs, lmao
HWNBYF
sharty's got exactly one joke
>ur a skitzo!!!

i called you a soijak.party emigrant, not a schizo
Keep on donating my he'll notic- pfttt
c'mon man at least pretend you're having a conversation and not running off your mental script
You people worship trannies too much
He isn't your friend 🙂
concession accepted
Yeah I agree you frick dogs on the reg wowdogfricker
>schizo posts graph which is somehow related to asmongold being my friend
Meds troony, now. for your own sake
>it's schizo because I don't like it
it's schizo because it was unrelated. What that graph had to do with me and asmon? nothing. You and meds tho? Everything.

Looks like ARR filtered another
True dood, their loss. The game becomes good after 100000 hours of cutscenes. They should've invested in the story, especially ARR and critically acclaimed HW's story
Ooo, a rare double filter.
>dood
LET'S GO!
>penguin dood from disgae
>chinger dagger
as it should be.
Like 90% of what you posted is false, moron. They don't hate story skippers, they just hate you.
>They don't hate story skippers
Just like they didn't hate Quin69 for skipping the story and playing the endgame because he found the story lame and boring?
Why did you post this .gif of (you)rself? No one asked for this
>laughing at a moron for dying to an extremely easy boss is hate
the
>Where are the heals
thing was funny but he did get a lot of shit for saying that story sucks and that was the reason he skipped it after Sastasha...
Not simping, just pointing out that he got shit for not liking ff14's story and skipped it
>trying to rewrite history like a israelite
He got shit on because he couldn't play the game properly and blame other people
This cope is delicious.
Cry more quinbaby, maybe you'll find those eels one day.
His own mods were shitting on his gameplay and moronic takes. He was terrible and blamed everyone but the game. That's why he got shit on.
>oh no! I've lost the argument!
>better say cope, that means I've actually won.
He got shit because he bought a skip and immediately got owned trying to dive headfirst into raiding. He went into the game thinking it would be easy baby shit (like WoW) and got fricking destroyed instead.
So he bought a skip because the story of this MMORPG which is famous for it wasn't intringing enough to him and went into endgame raiding because he listened to his fans who told him to raid, is that the gist of it??
>intringing
>simping for quin
Cringe
I'm sorry, literally who you fricking moron zoomie?
>all new content has no rewards
Whats the point of doing it?
>new content
where? I thought we'd get new content next expansion
they locked the cloud hair behind fanfest bullshit
do they have that old noctis hair cut and beard yet? i think its a cool look
cloud hair is a reward for art and design contests you moronic frog poster
this npc is gosh dang cute
Kinda looks like M'naago's younger sister.
Oh shit, King Caesar
>What went wrong with this game?
You mean before or after 90% of the dev team got pulled to work on another game? Maintanance mode doesn't even begin to describe it and now that 16 was a flop you can bet your ass they won't let those devs come back to 14 until they shit enough DLC and other garbage to recoup the losses.
Oh boy they are going to raid yoship with a ton of question related to the current state of the game this fanfest
I wonder if an aussie will ask
>"Yoshitpiss, why do you thing ff16 flopped and why is ff14 on maintenance mode?"
no because he'll get flagged down and arrested at the gates for trying to sneak a bomb in
As an Australian, i firmly say that Barry is an abo and is subhuman.
>come into FFXIV thread
>barry out of nowhere
>seething about FFXVI flopping out of nowhere
god damn did barry and FFXVI flopping really broke yoshitroons
I thought it would be funny if he bullied YoshitPiss. I might even LARP myself as HIM on next LL so keep your eyes open
No Q&A panel :^)
>"DUDE SOS EX ON BLU IS GOING TO BE KINO WHAT SPELL WILL WE LEARN"
>can't even do the fight on BLU
What a fricking disgrace. At least we got three armadillo spells BLUbros!!!
soddy white piggu, rimit break fodr brue mage requidure enginuh wodrk
they won't give BLU a limit break just for this one fight and they won't go recode the fight just for side content when they've already made it very clear that they don't care about side content
Blue mage literally has a 90% damage reduction ability
>Spent Years memeing about SoS and getting Light's Rampart
>Neither happens
>No mount to bribe people with either
Enjoy waiting 2-3 years for the next update
WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES WESTWOLVES
Remember when you gays swore that Forspoken was gonna be 6.0's name?
I remember when the WESTWOLVES came for your ass one week from now.
light rampant would've been kino instead we got uh...
laser eye lmao
laser eye is a classic BLU spell, it's just pointless as we already have glower and the look Shockwave Pulsar never ever

it's a stupid answer to a stupid thread
Did he actually?
Nah just a femboy like F1NN
I've played GW2 with its jumping puzzles. Is Kugane Tower really that challenging?
>Is Kugane Tower really that challenging?
The only challenging part is the dogshit jumping system XIV has, think Dark Souls 2 babyjumps but worse.
If that moron asmongold can do it in like 20 min, I'm sure you can.
ff14 simply doesn't have the movement built for something like that so challenge comes from that limitation
no, you just need to recognize that there are only two kinds of jumps in FFXIV jumping puzzles: long jumps and short jumps
once you recognize that it's just a matter of identifying which jump to use
No but the summer jumping tower is actually hard
How do you even use this shit? What the frick is the point of it?
Is just a dps, tank healing spell. Thats all
The cast time is way too long.
Is for open map stuff, not instance content
>Is for open map stuff
such as
soloing achievement fates?
are all these BLU spells being dog shit an overcorrection for the broken ass trash they added last xpac

Is maintenance over already?
Depends on what kind of maintenance.
>Datacenter/world maintenance:
Yes
>Maintenance mode:
No
>1500 tome relics
>Again
>And they look like shit
People don't want to be inconvenienced to get their BiS Glam Sticks. Think of all the poor benches if people had to go out of their way to work on relics.
They are not even BiS.
Not every relic needs to look like the Lux's you turbohomosexual. The new ones look fine you just have narrow taste.
>The relic questline requires you to fight against the entire instance to kill mobs
Those morons at SE never cease to disappoint
>UHHHH I HAVE TO SHARE A WORLD WITH OTHER PEOPLE???? IN AN MMO????????
Shut the frick up moron, of all the moronic shit they did with this patch that is not one of them.
>Imagine subbing for this lacklustre shit
lol. i at least fricking hope people will still be running the new Criterion come the next free 3 day trial
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YdCXpKfsOJA
Well they should sell 1 week game time then
> Play the content
What content?
Just put the recent shot playing zelda not giving a frick

>need to subscribe for a whole month to do any of it
Also you're locked into a sub if you're a housinggay
Forgot about that one, but yes
Just unsub.
Those are FOMO events to make people feel better for being subscribed and you only have yourself to blame if you fall for that shit.
>t. YoshiP
Yes, this is Yoshida Noaki. Unsub from FFXIV and go play Balder's Gate 3 and and Pikmin 4.
How am I supposed to enjoy FFXIV without my Judge (JDG) tank?
I hope so too friend, but I already got my dream job in Endwalker, so my good fortune is already spent. Godspeed though, Judge would be kino
Did someone say relic grind?
why didn't they just make this the BLU reward?
Because paypigs are the death of vidya.
>they're going to pay run sellers to get the mount for them anyway
its not blue mage themed. this was created for the cash shop as a sequel to the cruise chaser mount back in 2021. and in two more years you're going to get a proto carbuncle on the shop as well
>its not blue mage themed.
BLU got access to the Eden raid with this update, which is where you fight Shadowkeeper.
right, now point me to where you fight a morbol in coil or alexander
Bad Breath is a BLU skill
Poor Gerolt, forever under the israelite's thumb
When can we call the hag out for her bullshit? Seriously, why does WoL act afraid of her when he can break her in half and receive a stern talking to at best from the GCE
god I want to be findommed by rowena
I said his craftmanship is good even if I also wanted to wanted say he's a disgrace. I can't be mean even to NPCs.
Wait, so did BLU actually not get a mount?
Nope, and worse, it's not allowed in two trials either.
I know SoS but what's the other one?
memoria misera
So it's pretty much safe to assume they won't be allowed into the Final Day when the level 90 update hits in the future.
Wow, so did they get anything?
Three armadillo spells
That's it? Surely your exaggerating
There are 20 new spells but three of them are from fricking armadillos
Talk about disappointing
>Challenge WoW world first raiders to a race in XIV
>Fail to pass the first hurdle
Why does this waste of oxygen think he's actually good?
Literally who?

Is that Zepla or Asmongold?
Neither of those stream XIV.

Whats the reward for doing all variant routes this time? The dog pet?
I'm frankly surprised they haven't expanded the free trial yet. After all, they gave Stormblood for free not so long ago.
my only blu mount schizo theory is that the cerberus from DRS was originally planned to be a reward for BLU omega and they stuffed it into DRS instead because they had no clue what to put in there (should've been an actual good looking version of the queen's chair, not the ugly moronic thing we got after zadnor for the mazerat field notes achievement)
they removed the mount reward because 95% of morbols came from sell runs
qrd on the westwolf schizo?
Did they give BLU some actually interesting skills at least or is it just 220 filler and le big potency trial skills?
There's a spell that does more damage if it's raining
>Hildebrand is just cut scenes
>Relic is completed in 3 minutes by turning in tomes
>Blu is 20 spells, no mount, can't fight WOL, not even an achievement for capping (two and a half years for this btw)
>Relic tools step is quite literally identical to the previous, crafting the same item 20 times, then 30 times - 50 for each class
What a fricking dreadful patch
you're supposed to pay 500 dollars to play the new expansion called FF16
Im 100% sure the nue mount was supposed to be the variant reward for doing all routes but they swapped it out after people b***hed about criterion rewards.
what's the all routes mount this time?
Im guessing its the shiba inu pet since i haven't seen it anywhere.
The demon lamp
thanks!
Im 100% sure you are wrong
the mount reward for the records is pic related, the nue is the throne for this one (meaningless reward since its tradeable on MB)
Shame, I actually wanted the Nue, but criterion savage is big gay
Just buy it when people start putting them on the MB.
Buy it then?
market board?
>yooooooh
How they didn't put Shockwave Pulsar
It only shows up in a savage fight
>he wasn't here when he was going through the MSQ
Shill me on BLU, from what I can gather it's
>Go in the field and beat up enemies until you see them cast a spell you can get
>Kill them, have a chance to win that spell
>When you have a certain amount of spells, you can do a puzzle carnevale thing
>You can also do some trials and savage with people mimicing tanks and healer (I assume they bring a different roster of blu spells to do it)
But, exactly, how do you level up? Is it really just beat up overworld enemies?
And the reward is that eventually you get a mount if you do absolutely everything?
Yes you level up by beating up random mobs. A more immediate reward is a massive supply of seals to spend on aetheryte tickets.
Doesn't that take an insane amount of time then?
If you're doing it on your own like a chad it can take a while but you can get boosted by having people help you kill higher level stuff.
>Zero friends
>like a chad
No, BLUs get a massive exp bonus for field mobs. This doesn't apply to FATEs by the way, but you'll still see dumbfrick BLUs trying to level in FATEs because the average BLU player is dumber than a fricking rock.
I think you get normal exp from fates and 100% sure you get exp whenever you get an ability
I tried blu, leveling was miserable but the carnival was kinda fun
>level up
Kill mobs
Alternatively join an fc, have them help you get fish slap, then go to a high level area with a lot of mobs and while not in a party slap mobs with fish and run while your friends kill them after you tag them.
Esuna my doom, you green little shit.
>thought we got two slightly different hairstyles this patch
>it actually just looks different on males and females and for some reason it looks worse on females
Why did we get this before Hyth's hair?
malechads keep winning
New hairstyles have looked worse on females since shb, you can thanks the homosexuals crying female characters were pandered to in hw and sb even though it has never been true, even the long hairstyle we got at the beginning of shb was designed for male characters
I can't be the only person who found shiva's death cringe as frick right? Fricking SHIVA dying to a goddamn useless airship holy shit. I can't believe people cried during that.
only the cultists cried to that because it was mandated
That was the same airship class as the one that had a double KO against Midgarsormr. It was kind of a big deal.
>haven't completed Reflections in Crystal, so can't do new BLU quests
God damn you Yoshida.

Question about completed ARR Relics, but if I ever want to get replicas for them or a previous step, I always have to carry it on me and I can't just punt it off into a temporary third retainer and leave it to rot since there's reason to hold on to it?
You can get replicas for them if you trade them in for the first anima step too.
Start a HW relic, turn in your ARR one at the first step and you will perma unlock the replica vendor
Not gonna lie, that sounds terrible, but better to then letting a bunch of inventory slots go to waste I suppose
>can't learn Limit Break from Elidibus
>can't even FIGHT Elidibus
I'm uninstalling this fricking game
>Haven't played since 6.3
>Decide to actually give this patch a shot since I like BLU stuff
>Story is STILL nothing but fricking filler (I should have learned by now that most post-MSQ will be filler so I guess I'm just dumb for expecting more)
>BLU is STILL getting shafted with the same boring fricking filler spells that are literal recolors of other spells even though they are "limited" because it lets the dev(s) be more creative and now the devs sloppy coding is coming back and biting it in the ass by simply having content that they will never be able to access AT ALL
>Criterion is a complete waste of fricking time (even though its fun with friends) and Variant is an extremely poor replacment for Bozja/Zadnor and Eureka
>IS is STILL just WoW Garrisons but slightly less shit
>PvP is STILL dead thanks to pisspoor netcode and rampant cheating (of all kinds)
>Raids are cool but they are simply not enough
>Dungeons have been braindead for a while but the latest ones are almost completely straight lines, the devs are not even trying to hide it

>I like Hildy but whoever thought it was a good idea to use him as filler for the big black hole that the lack of exploration content created should be fired from the company immediately
I swear to god, if 7.0 doesn't blow my socks off I'll just quit. I cut them some slack thanks to Covid and the usual SE frickery but by now they should have that shit fixed and be going full steam ahead, especially since they have MUCH more to lose now after WoW shat the bed. They don't just need a course correction anymore, they need to be shot out of a canon in the complete opposite direction if they want to keep the positive momentum going
The side stories in these patches are better written and more engaging than the MSQ, whoever is in charge of the MSQ currently better be saving his load for 7.0 or we will have another Stormblood/ARR on our hands
We already know he's saving his load and he's just kind of "stuck" with writing an FF4 story; same guy is in charge of Pandaemonium and the Tataru quests iirc
>same guy is in charge of Pandaemonium and the Tataru quests iirc
Who is it then? I rarely bother with tuning into the liveletters since they are never in english (anymore) and I can't understand how someone who wrote the Pandemonium raids can create a character like Zero. Zero is like a charisma black hole that just sucks anything even remotely interesting out of the characters and events around her, she would be considered shitty even by cheap shonen manga/animu standards
what was his life changing event bros?
the translation is kind of overselling it as usual, they talked about it on the stream and the truth is his company was going fricking bankrupt so he had to stop.
does not inspire confidence
>Wrote some good shit
How in the frick didn't he see how shit Zero was as a character as he was writing her? Is she just some shitty waifu tier character like how Sylvanas is Danusers literal wafiu insert?
>bard quests
>assistant writer for bozja
I dont feel so good about this
Bard quests were fine, they were about covering up yet more seedy Ala Mhigan history for the sake of the liberation front, the whole point of said liberation front being a long-term pincer attack against Garlemald
Bozja sucking was Matsuno's fault
He wrote about just as much decent to good shit as he wrote absolute fricking garbage. And the 6.x patch msq is imo the lowest point in the story the game has seen since the Stormblood msq, so that doesn't exactly fill me with confidence in his skill.
I'll give 7.0 a chance but if it's shit too I'm done with the game for good.
>nothing about 6.x msq on the slide
why do morons keep talking about zero? It's obvious he had nothing to do with it
So he's writing the raid series AND the post-MSQ AND the expansion AND tataru's AND the trial series since it's been combined with the post-MSQ all at the same time
No wonder the post-MSQ feels like filler
No, he only wrote 5.2 Tataru because it was about Mhach, which he also wrote. Ishikawa wrote the other ones.
Zero is caught in being a voidsent character that isn't malicious and in being the Cecil analogue for an FF4 story
is a complete waste of fricking time (even though its fun with friends)
Why do you need to be rewarded for playing the game? The mode is obviously made to be fun with friends with 0 pressure to losing any loot.
Sounds to me like you care more about AFKing in Limsa with some flex reward than the gameplay.
I don't give two shits about gear since it has been boring "+1 dmg" for atleast 8 years now, what I give a shit about is that NO ONE IS PLAYING IT and I can't get any of my friends to play it more than 2-3 times either since it has almost 0 replay value on its own. Even with all of its problems atleast explorable content had more replay value thanks to the human element that was constantly in play and you were very rarely stuck on doing the exact same thing for an hour if some moron just didn't understand what to do
>I can't get any of my friends to play it more than 2-3 times
I couldn't get my friends to play it once and they even quit Sneedolands back then. Now they play ESO...
And why is it so hard for a team for one of the only two sub based live service games with one of the largest active playerbases on the current market to bother to add something as simple as a fricking mount as a reward for fully engaging in the content they created? (Something they did back in stormblood.)
How many corners need to be cut in this dogshit game before morons like you wake up and actually make a stink about it. This dogshit studio can't even be asked to make the hats for outfits they charge you real money for visible on all races.
There's always Fortnite.
>only 2 of them available in BR
JESUS FRICKING CHRIST JUST PUT THEM IN ALREADY. And don't nerf the tiddies this time around.
are you talking about criterion?
because it has a mount reward
Japanese Autism unironically.
They have a pattern in expansion patch cycles and they will not deviate from it once it has begun. Even if they see a better way they will wait until the next expansion cycle to even consider fixing an issue.
My problems with the game do not stem from their patch cycle. My problem stems from the fact that objectively, since Shadowbringers, Square Enix has charged people more money for worse content and less content overall. They have continued to fail to meet even the baseline of expectations they established for themselves and instead of the playerbase raising their concerns in the overall direction of the game and its ever increasing lack of polish, volume, and quality they are instead drowned out by fricking moron also-rans (and likely Shadowbabs) that tell people to shut up and consume this low-effort slop SE shits out now every 4 months.
Where the frick even is that polish that they said they really needed the extra dev time to develop? Because I don't see it. I've never seen a game go on such a consistent downward trend in terms of quality for as long as XIV and be rewarded for it.
>I've never seen a game go on such a consistent downward trend in terms of quality for as long as XIV and be rewarded for it.
pay rent bingbing
I don't know know what that means. Is that a Nintendo reference? Cause I think BotW and TotK are in the same boat of trash as ER.
Ok barry but who asked?
You really don’t fool anyone though, you say “since shadowbringers” like you aren’t done mentally ill shadowbab you picked up the game because his favorite streamer tried the game
Actually I was playing this game since 1.0. I played actively through every single expansion up until mid Shadowbringers where I noticed the downward trend. I came back for Endwalker to see if things could turn around, cleared the first raid tier in a week with a static set up by a friend and have quit this game again for the exact same reasons.
Nice projection though you little homosexual.
What you think and feel about twiteion shit? Was it worth crowfund yoshitpiss wow?
Could you repeat the question in English? I genuinely do not know what you mean.
What do you think of shitwalker shit final boss villian that isnt zenos?
Oh I think what they did to the ancients overall was dogshit and ruined the climax of Shadowbringers for me. I thought the dilemma was interesting because in Shadowbringers they present the Ancients was just an objectively better people than current mortals in an objectively better society. Reframing everything as "actually everything had to happen because we needed to create a shittier people with secret sauce that is the key to defeating the true threat" ruined everything that made that earlier reveal compelling. I got my ending to this game and I have wiped my hands clean, I have no desire (especially in its current state) to support the game further with my money or time.
Frick off trancer Black person
Never said I preferred that stupid zodiark trance shit. I would have just rather they had closed the book on the ancients instead of dragging them back out into the spotlight to ruin them. Sometimes less is more. Beyond that I didn't care much about the bird, any final boss they had in mind was going to have to come out of left field when you effectively soul-killed any established villain the game had left.
Thats isn't some special breed on Jap autism, the WoW devs are doing the exact same thing and it's one of the thing that has damaged WoW more than their insistence on every expansion being a "clean slate" for them.
While WoW was/is breaking every functional system in the game or abandoning it in favour of something worse most of the time, the XIV devs are sticking to their scripts as if is religious gospel, only changing course if what they are doing has an extremely clear negative impact on the game. There has to be some happy medium between the two, but not a single MMO dev has ever managed to reach it (yet)
It's because of development cycles. When a new patch comes out, they're usually so far in development on the next patch that it's almost impossible to change anything drastically, and if a major feature isn't getting good reception, it's way too late to develop some content on the fly to replace it, so they have to let it ride.
That is understandable, what isn't is how long standing bugs or code related gameplay issues are never fixed ASAP, it's only ever shit relating to the servers or to the cash shop/sub service.
Fixing the Holy spells not lighting up when you press Requiescat this patch shouldn't take two fricking weeks to implement, it should take at most 2 days, same goes for spelling errors or tooltips not being correct
It literally has a mount reward and a title. You just want to force everyone into a second path of gearing.
Show me the new BLU mount, blizzdrone.
Anyone have a list of all the new BLU spells?
Who the frick still wants to play this game?
Cultists unironically, people want you to pretend it's all perfect in Yoshida's land, they will tell you that you are just whinning for not doing the same mindless tasks for the course of 5 months until you get a brand new set of mindless task to do until the expansion drops.
sorry nobody bit, anon
You did, homosexual.
Shouldn't you be busy playing the game? after all you got meaningful content drop this time around, i don't know why are you losing your time on Ganker when you could be playing that awesome long-lived and engaging content.
didn't read
it is currently in its most popular phase during a content drought. people just like the gameplay which is weird.
muh netcode, every game got shitty netcode
after being around every fighting game community i now know netcode means jackshit
Game's netcode is actually SOVL because combat feels so slow it's like turn-based
sounds like fricking cope post any ranking any game
The netcode is shit, it's serviceable in PvE content since everything is deterministic and slow but in PvP it shouldn't take upwards of an entire sec for shit to register even while you are on 50 ping or lower. If you played literally any other game and it had these problems no one would play it, just imagine playing something like CS or even just any other non-turnbased MMO with this kind of shitty delay
Im a wowfugee and even I can see how formulaic their content schedule is. How have you guys put up with this for 10 or so years? I guess theres strength in that sort of reliability but goddamn dude.
we used to wait less time for more content but they switched it around for endwalker for some reason
any blu theorycraft? how fricked is the new moonflute window?
Why do people still pretend relic quests were ever engaging?

XIV trannies prefer to be defending this crappy ass "game" on Ganker and the official forums rather than play the game they say to love, speaks volume of the lasting power these content drops truly have.
Ah yeah damn, XIV threads are so bad all the time, so awful. There's no reason for you to be here so why not leave?
XIV chads spend their daytime being productive, not sat at home.
Productive posting their modbeast pictures on /vg/ i suppose, gotta grind that thread rep to be accepted into the clique.
I enjoy making your homosexual anus bleed with my posts.
How do you feel about limbus company?
I love limbus company, i love all of the project moon games actually.
>I'm just posting to make you mad
>not because I'm assblasted
>you're the one whose mad
I miss when Ganker had genuine trolls who did it for fun and not a bunch of gays just using it as smokescreen to hide how mad they were.
Bro just go play your beloved game instead of wasting time with an assblasted troll. Don't you have new content to complete?
I'm at work, getting paid to post here in my downtime. Unlike XIV seethers, who do it for free.
Playing pretend is your biggest asset, no wonder you are stuck with this game, you basically have to do just that to justify spending money on a sub to "Play" this shit.
Damn you're really concerned about how I spend my money. Living vicariously, perhaps? I can afford $15 a month, which may seem like I'm basically royalty to thirdies but it's not that big a deal.
Good goyim, keep throwing your money away carelessly, those 15 dollars a month are nothing but time of your life that you'll never get back.
I love limbus company.
I think you should spend your time engaging with things you love rather than getting upset over nothing
Who said anything about being upset? i'm laughing my ass off seeing how people are willingly getting blindsided for a game and company that treats them as poorly as square and XIV does.
This. Capcom/Fromsoft/Nintendo treat their customers much better.
Are you at work or at home?
>Who said anything about being upset?
You keep replying to people who play a game you clearly hate so it's only reasonable your motivation is, in fact, acute anus pain.
Well i don't see you playing the game, instead of doing so you are defending it on a cantonese web netting board vehemently like if your livelihood depends on its success.
You do it for free?
How do you feel about limbus company?
I love limbus company, you should add me Z019696176
I'm actually enjoying my time playing an actual game unlike you once you get out of that wage cage of yours.
>I'm actually enjoying my time playing an actual game
If it's such a good game why are you here responding to (You)s within a few minutes?
I don't see you playing one either. Instead of playing a game you like or even posting in a thread for one, you are here crying like a b***h. Sad!
How do you feel about limbus company?

How are you ACTUALLY meant to level up BLU?
Chain kill overworld mobs. You should hit 80 in like an hour.
Which mobs?
For time efficiency do mobs that are the same level as you in groups of 4+. You can burst a group then freeze + ultravibration a second group to abuse the chain bonus. Ultra won't work on mobs above your level.

Joke's on you I play male roe!
at this point they should turn BLU into a real job or scrap it, its just a waste of resources and doesn't make people happy with an update like this every two years and half.
But anon, think of the all those poor folk who need Moogle Tomestones and aetheryte tickets
can't wait for the FF16 collab announcement at fanfest
>patch schedule increased to 4 months
>covid is over
>ff16 is completed
what excuse do they have for this lazy shit?
>ff16 is completed
Not before they shit out 3 DLC and a complete edition to make up for the tremendous losses.
>losses
I'm sure whatever deal Sony gave them covered the difference after the 3M units. I really wish that number came out during the FTC hearings.
>>ff16 is completed
They still have to port to PC, which we won't see until mid 2024 at the earliest. Porting from PS5 basically means you have to basically develop the game a second time with how ass backwards its architecture is.
The cultists will want you to believe it's thanks to the "grapical work" of 7.0, they wholly expect this game to have raytracing and even an improved character creation thanks to it, i'm not kidding.
People keep staying subbed.
Work on FF16 started in 2016.
You want to know what happened? Subscriptions aren't falling. They're growing. All the people who complain and quit are immediately replaced by a new wave that does nothing more than ERP with 100 different mods and plugins enabled.
>1500 tomestone "relic"
>No BLU mount
What the hell is wrong with this development team post-Endwalker?
What development team? There's like 10 people tops left working on the game.
>That mechanic where the Nue dashes through rings that is not only obvious as frick but takes forever to go out
Why even have a mechanic like this in a boss fight? Even for normal mode it just feels insulting.
not sure if you've noticed but all criterion mechanics are pointless visual overload
I noticed this is a pattern they are falling into lately. Rather than make mechanics interesting to actually solve they are just making the tells into visual cancer so it's almost impossible to read.
visual cancer is the ultimate enemy of midwit raiders who need to know exactly everything happening before they're willing to do a mechanic properly instead of being like the left of the bell curve who simply listen to the faster people and get the mechanics right sooner
They are falling into the same trap that some of WoWs worst content has been using for fricking years now. I really hope that 6.X has just been one long frickup by some of the worst members on the team while the real heavy hitters are working on 7.0 or were working on 16
What went wrong is that we have reached a point where players care more about rewards than fun gameplay
>Dilute the game to the point where even casuals are pointing out how stale it's becoming
>Don't bother to improve encounter design or make interesting arenas to compensate
>No exploratory zone, which encouraged socialisation and actually playing the game
>Same shit dungeon design
>No resource management outside of building and spending metre
>No weaknesses to exploit, no resistances to play around
>No enmity management
Why are you surprised?
Have you been living under a fricking rock? The devs have dumbed the game down to the point where even ultracasual Limsa AFKers are complaning about it. The fact that run selling got so fricking bad that SE had to step in and update the ToS just to stop it should tell you everything you need to know about how much people like playing the game right now.
It was a big fricking mistake to take all gameplay complexity and lock it to the highest difficulty, it ended up turning the difficulty-curve into a difficulty cliff and it gives players no reason to even try since it's impossible to get a taste for it before you push yourself over the hurdle if players ever manage to get that far since the leveling experience has been getting worse at about the same rate as it has been getting faster
Why would the ultracasual Limsa AFKers complain about content they don't do?
Because they are still forced to do the MSQ no matter how much they hate it and they are still forced to do other content for dat GLAM
That can almost completely be attributed to all of the new players replacing old players leaving and then some, pretty much every player I know that has been playing since HW/SB have all quit for the exact reason that the gameplay experience has been getting worse and the devs rarely tries to fix it and instead just try to make it even more worse just to make their own jobs easier.
That and the lack of any innovation with the games combat system(s) have gotten extremely stale
>Because they are still forced to do the MSQ no matter how much they hate it and they are still forced to do other content for dat GLAM
They can just pay people to do it for them.
>anecdotal "evidence"
everyone I know from when I started playing (early HW) still plays
only 1 of them doesn't play anymore
And I've been in 3 different FCs this expansion, all going as far back as atleast SB and every single one of them has died out to the point where there were either no one online even during peak hours or they were down from 20ish active ppl to 2ish active ppl with a clear and steady decline during EW.
This is EU btw, the decline might not be as harsh on other servers since one other thing that I can point at is that more and more EU servers have been set to "preferred" status
Then maybe EU XIV is dying. NA and JP seem to be doing well.
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
That might be the case yeah, that is still bad for the game though since there is literally no other MMO in EU that could be siphoning these players away which means that the only reason for why they would leave is because they are dissatisfied with the current state of the game. Even worse is that it has been happening so quickly and pretty much all during the EW patches, even in ShB where the EU scene was pretty barren it still didn't bleed players this quickly.
>EU XIV is dying
>PF on light has more than 100 parties during peak times
dude, if you say that EU is dying you are very likely on Chaos
>PF on light has more than 100 parties during peak times
How many nightclubs?
0 because europeans are incapable of playing an mmo socially
Not even that. A lot of the listing are schizo shit like "need cute cat girl"
A lot of them are unironically shitpost listings and some are of people breaking ToS and still selling runs. It's not nearly as bad as US datacenters though
homie I'm on light right now and there hasn't been over 100 postings since 6.0 or 6.1
Just this weekend alone there were 100+ PF up during the evening. You are lying, every evening I see around 100 PF up for stuff.
If you actually ever look at the listings, atleast 1/4th is shitposting, memes and run selling. So you are technically right but I don't count that shit as actual listings
The high-end duty tab is the one that makes most of the PF listing on EU my friend
I never said that it wasn't, but 60% of all listings still isn't 100% friend
Light regularly sees 90+ on high end duties during prime hours (aka, starting in 1-2 hours from now) and usually around 10-20 RP/Venue listings under other.
Jack killed Chaos.
Based i hope he kill yoshitpiss too the same way as the lufenian b***h
It was actually a guy named Jack (character name) that made me switch from Chaos to Light, so he actually did kill Chaos (for me)
I still find it amusing to this day that when EU originally got split into two, everyone had it in their minds that Light would die off.
Instead Light is now super popular and the go-to for PF savage and ultimate, funny how that works out.
The thing is though you can see who’s complaining about the shit that doesn’t exist on stuff like the official forums and the template is not people from HW/SB it’s all ShB wowfugees, hopefully they do quit but alas sub counts aren’t going down fast enough
EW had the smallest sub drop off, so that isn’t the case
Yeah let me play all the fun gameplay

Any other socially awkward losers going to fanfest? How do you intend to cope with the crowd and people trying to talk to you?
I try not to waste my money on things I wouldn't enjoy.
I'm already locked in, it's way too late to sell it or get a refund. So give some useful advice instead of being mean.
Give it away to someone who would enjoy it more and watch the pirated livestream with Ganker like the rest of us awkward losers.
Not going to fanfest, but as an aspie who has to go to trade shows for work, I just drink a couple of airplane bottles of liquor. People seem to think I'm really cool when I'm slightly drunk, then they meet me again sober and I'm immediately outed as a creepy autist.

But then why is Julyen so strong...?
inbreeding
we don't know how long ago Godbrand came to Eitherys, so its entirely possible Julyen is from some off-shoot branch that kept the strength but lost the name'
its just a joke of course, but shit like how Uriel Septim and all his heirs getting killed and ending the septim bloodline doesn't actually happen, families are much larger than you'd assume at first, especially if you only care about "blood"
Godbert himself alludes to the family tree getting a bit weird, and wondering whether they're even "real" Mandervilles at that point

Yet it doesnt explain bullshit like EMOTIONAL AETHER THAT COMPOSE THE SPACE AMD BEYOOOOOONDDDD
>why yes, I am waiting until a week before 7.0 to do the patch content
ffxiv was never a good game it just frontloads newcomers with hundreds of hours of mediocre story that people feel peer pressured into praising and the promise of tons of evergreen content that you quickly notice is a lie because 1. the game plays nothing like it did on release of that content 2. nobody actually does that old shitty content so you’ll never find groups for it
Anam and dalamud fixed yet?
>What went wrong with this game?
The story is over but Squeenix wants to keep milking it while not investing any sort of budget on it. I dropped it the moment I finished Endwalker and realized they're pulling most of the money it makes to invest it in other moronic shit EXCEPT ff14.
Good.
Oh don't misunderstand me, I still enjoyed FF14 and other Square Enix games I'm just not paying a subscription for no content anymore.
Any guesses on how to resolve ice slime rupture in latest carnival? I tried diamond back, sticky tongue and death 5 but none worked. Do I need a new spell?
How are you supposed to level up as BLU without friends?
Kill enemies. Crazy, I know.
Just buy friends.
Tried playing the game? I leveled up to 80 alone just fine by farming shb mobs
Just grind the mob that's your current level or one-two higher

What I don't get is how did Yoshi P let the game get to this state?
He was supposed to be the wonderchild of Square Qnix. He's on the board of directors so you can't even blame exec meddling.
Anon...he hasn't worked on the game for more than a year at this point.
>He's on the board of directors
yeah because one person can't get outvoted by more than one person
FF16 showed that a lot of XIV wonderdevs are just hack frauds who got lucky they attracted the mentally ill homosexuals that eat anything up.
None of the people identified as "XIV wonderdevs" worked on FF16 except for Soken and Koji Fox
How?
Did the story held up to the "Ishikawa standard of quality" or was just forgettable crap?
>advertised as a story game
>lower sales than ANY other FF title in the past 30 years
What do you think?
ishikawa is not involved with XVI's story.
Main writer is the main writer for HW.
Story is good/bad depending on who you ask. I think it's good, but it turns into a fricking mess at the end. Kind of fun in a way, but it turns into what some people would call "schlock". It's just pure shit. In a good/funny way, in my opinion.
XVI wasn't even written by Ishikawa, I think it was written by the HW team.
>starts out as GoT/FFT poltical plot
>becomes standard JRPG power of friendship vs godlike being by the midgame
it's okay, but extremely bipolar and has many of the obvious flaws that have existed in XIV for years
The game's playerbase is growing and mogstation sales are going up. That means he's doing a good job as far as SE is concerned.

Citation needed.
More people are playing the game than ever before and the vast majority of them are blizzdrone migrants who brought their insane cultlike worship of the developers with them. He couldn't be in a better position. They can totally drop dungeons and trials from the game entirely in 7.0 and they'll thank him for it and call you a doomposter Barry concern troll if you have a problem.
>Dude what if we made every fight a clusterfrick of aoes lmao
baby's first concern-troll

baby's first passionate outrage from a concerned citizen
Hildebrand doesn't have any eyebrows.
Why does this game make Ganker shart its dick and balls off in frothing fury harder than any other game in existence?
Two reasons. A.) It's popular game that people actually play, B.) It's not western. These two things in tandem make tourists piss their drawers in rage because they're wannabe normalgays who think hating eastern shit makes them look cool and they also love guzzling the contrarian kool aid. It also has the added benefit of being an attractive topic for shitflinging because WoW vs. XIV threads hit 500 posts regularly and you don't even have to play either game to join in on acting like a moron Black person, you can just parrot the same shit you see everyone else post.

Pick your poison. Also half the time you can pick your poison and then pretend it's actually another poison that got you because you don't want to actually argue legtimately.
>coming to Ganker and NOT sharting dicks and balls
It’s an interesting case, there’s a multitude of reasons of varying importance
>it’s popular
Self explanatory
>it’s competition to “legacy” games
Blizzdrones have long been the worst fandom in vidya
>it has a sub fee
Filters the typical brown third worlder
>the community
FFXIV is actually positively received by its players, it isn’t like some shit like league or something where if you trash the game a league player will just agree with you. This is the big deal for why it specifically makes Ganker trannies mad. It’s why I picked up the game myself, I saw that this was based
A large portion of electiongays are third-worlders (brazilians russians filipinos etc) who can't play sub-based games whatsoever because they cost actual money and can't be pirated, so they seethe incessantly over it, especially when those games are remotely popular.
Personally? Because I really liked it before. I was a big 11gay so I even got in at 1.0 and found genuine charm in it. Everything from there through Stormblood was fun to me. ShB frustrated me a bit, but I still found myself engaged with it and looking forward to each patch. 6.X has been shit from second 1, but trannies and memes are making it more popular than ever, despite never being worse and it confuses and frustrates me.
>its a popular game
>even during content drought it keeps like 83% of it plays and somehow grows year to year
>people just like it
only wow morons think "but there is no content! where is the m+". they dont understand what makes a game good. they will always say "shadowbringer" good without knowing why.

This isn't your first post in the thread.
You know Ganker X doesn't register new IPs consistently, right newfriend? Hover over the text there and see what it says.
Weird because it worked just fine a few posts down. I wonder why you'd be so invested in lying about just entering the thread?
Could you hover your mouse over the text there?
Could you just admit your agenda?
If you're going to play wannabe janny you could at least try being good at it.

Yes it will.

Good, frick off and take you're cancerous grifters with you
it's ok that no one wants to promote this game or anyone curious to watch about this critically acclaimed MMORPG with the twice awarded best community on twitch. Anyone who says "game is in maintenance mode" is coping because of OUR success. Am I right? Yoshida so successful he'll bring sweet ff16 money into 14 and make it even better now! Believe it!
>still ranting about ecelebs
Did I stutter Black person? Frick off and take your cancerous grifters with you.
WoWgays' only validation is from twitch numbers. Not even just WoW players it's Blizzdrones in general, any game that is similar to one of theirs they will shit up threads and spam twitch numbers. They unironically worship streamer shits.
Poor people love ecelebs because it lets them pretend they can actually afford to play new games
This is known
Yeah as you pointed out they do the same shit with PoE and Diablo
They used to do it with OW and TF2 too
concession accepted xir
>it's good that no one watches people playing our "popular" game
ah yes. It makes sense
Yes it is good.
Are you actually arguing in favor of streamers?
>the game doesn't attract brain addled zoomers posting poggies and monkaS in shout chat
Yes it's good that there's no Twitch audience. Now frick off.
It's literal primetime in Europe which is where a huge portion of MMO twitch viewers are. Germans and Brits in particular are fricking obsessed with ecelebs, which is why you have so much broken pajeet-english ITT.
>must be the wowgays
>totally not the xiv players obsessed with the 5 minutes of celebrity the game got from these people
It's always the wowgays and by extension the blizzgays. They are obsessed with Twitch and constantly post viewcounts. Path of Exile is a threat to Diablo 4? Better spam twitch views to cope.
>game still growing

Could you elaborate on this?
A player named Tinyviolin wiped a Naxx raid at four horsemen by pulling Zeliek to the wrong corner and chaining all the melee.
On hardcore? If so, what a fricking legend.
Yes, on HC.
Sadly Admins stepped in and revived everyone I think.
>Sadly
It was lose lose no matter what they did
>Revive them
>Now every endgame group is gonna be looking for scapegoats to throw under the bus when they wipe so they can claim griefing
>Don't revive them
>Trolling intensifies to unmanageable levels
It's almost like hardcore mode in a game where one butthole can kill 20+ people easily is an inherently flawed idea or something
It's part of the appeal and everyone knows that deaths are final regardless of circumstance going in.
>but the admins revived them
Admins of a fan-made mod. WoW hardcore is not actually out yet.
>he thinks official servers will be any less carebear
If appealing deaths works like GM tickets do, you'll be waiting two months for your character to be revived.
>He thinks Blizzard is gonna give a single frick about your character dying to a griefer
>He thinks there will even be any mods to revert the death
Good joke.
once again private servers do it better, on the private server that wow stole the HC idea from when you hit max lvl you get an Immortal title and you can now play the endgame normally, since wow vanilla endgame in particular is dog shit for a hardcore format for reasons you listed + some of the raids just have trash that can 1 hit kill you randomly for no reason even if you're prepared for it to happen
>small string instrument
?
Some wowtroony intentionally wiped his raid on WoW Classic causing hardcore deaths. The deaths were reversed by the jannies because it didn't heckin' count.
>The deaths were reversed by the jannies because it didn't heckin' count.
Must be really hardcore when you can whine loud enough and get revived.
one or more of the jannies was in said raid group so it looks even worse, wow hardcore is a literal tard mode for eceleb worshipping NPCs
Please tell me we have the numbers for dragonflight. It'd be amazing if they were lower than Endwalker's.
Blizzard never shows numbers because they have been plummeting ever since Cataclysm. WoWtroons cope with streams instead.
They showed the numbers for shadowlands because it was allegedly the "fastest selling" expansion or some shit. If they haven't for dragonflight then that must mean it sold less.
no all you get for wow is raid logs and m+ run numbers (literally the only content in dragonflight) and those are both extremely sad
>that humongous dropoff from S1 to S2
is it always that bad?
the s2 numbers are pretty standard, the s1 numbers were inflated by morons falling for the "dood this time the game is good again, this xpac is different and bussin" streamer brainwashing
how come they fall for it every time, without fail?
S2 is always shit. The best times to play these games are at the start of an expansion and the very end regardless of what streamers say. I didn't buy DF, but I'll probably play it when Blizzard finally gives it away for free in the ass end of the expansion just to look at the zones and laugh at all the gay shit they shoved into the game.
The gay shit is a Centaur side quest in Ohn'ahran Plains. I thought I'd let you know where to look because it's pretty easy to miss if you're just going through the story.
that's not the only gay shit they added
I'm sure I will end up seeing it naturally because I do most sidequests and read all of them. It still doesn't sound as bad as the one Kyrian quest that was clearly written by some c**t with obvious daddy issues.
Not usually. The main issue this season is that there's a severe lack of healers due to the current meta and since a healer is mandatory for each run, the amount of runs is severely limited. No one wants to heal when it's unfun and stressful but every group needs a healer. If they change things to encourage people to go healer again with S3 the numbers should go back up(You'll know if they did if you no longer see people posting them on Ganker).
In 2018 the WeakAuras devs accidentally leaked WoW's numbers at being at 1.8m global subs and Blizzard went on an autistic legal campaign against them to ensure every trace of it was purged as hard as it could be
They would unironically murder people if DF's numbers were leaked
lol I remember that, they completely changed their armory API too so census websites wouldn't work anymore
How have I not heard of this before? They sued someone to shut them up after he leaked the numbers? That case should be getting posted in every fricking wow thread, holy shit.
he's making shit up
the "leak" did happen, but they didn't sue him or anything, he just deleted the tweet
it was like 1.8m subs, but it was 1.25 if you didn't count secondary accounts (secondary accounts are different wow accounts linked to the same bnet account) this was mid-BfA. Like patch 8.2 or 8.2.5
And it wasn't a leak, the dev just posted the numbers after someone asked, and then deleted it because I guess he realized blizzard probably didn't want those numbers out there
Didn't Blizz lock down the ability for sites like that to get data afterwards?
they did
They did exactly that, but IDK exactly when they did it since from what I remember it still took them a little while before they started plugging up every API hole that could possibly give player information not directly available from the realms themselves
it was a gradual process when they did that, sometime in mid-late bfa, I still remember when realmpop stopped working because I used to use that site often before I quit
The dev put out a big speech after deleting saying he messed up and the numbers aren't accurate at all. That's what leads people to believe he was threatened.
He didn't get sued, just threatened with legal action if he didn't redact it (even though it was all technically public data at the time)
It was never proven and the dev denies it(He still claims he realised he made a mistake), but that is what is speculated to have happened.
T-that doesn't count!!!!
projection
gaming equivalent of trying to give free samples of heroin to people
Analogy doesn't work, heron gives you a nice fuzzy warm feeling. All wow has left is cold sterile globohomosexual disney "fantasy"
>RPG OF THE YEAR
>nominee
Because the game has been flooded by blizzdrone refugees who have no standards and are violently defensive of their new drug dealer.
I don't trust the numbers of a single lonely jap.
You can see the empty pf
You can see the general interest at an all time low, with no youtubers or streamers
You can see the dead DCs
>walk into Limsa or Radz
>can't keep above 60 fps because the game is rendering the maximum possible number of characters
where are the dead DCs, brazilbro?
There was like 300 people on the gold saucer lasted Saturday to turn in the cactpot, you literally load a max set of players every couple of steps
Man I played this game for 5 years before learning about the early bird bonus and now every time I go to the GS on Saturday night I get to turn my PC into a fricking sun
Protip: the early bird bonus is active for an hour, so you can wait 15 minutes or so after the hour to waltz in and get your consolation prizes without getting blinded.
FFXIV is practically dead and you'll see how true that in the next XIV thread that'll be made right after this one.
Ok, but the single, lonely JP's methodology has a lot more work put into than yours.
I don't care how much "work" he put in.
There is not a single secondary source to confirm his numbers
You can confirm or disprove his numbers yourself. He pulls from public sources.
numbers that make me wrong don't count
numbers that make me right do count
that's why I will spam moronic tertiary shit like google trends and twitch viewers until the end of time
It doesn't count. We are talking about the fact that dragon flight saved the mmo genre and not ff14
>there's no non-glowie replica of the newest relic
Are you shitting me
Not even discord trannies datamined this dogshit patch LMAO
Thanks for LMAO anon I wouldn't have known you were being an epic troll without that
I feel theres a major character death coming in 6.5. I feel either thancred or urianger will get popped out of nowhere
keep dreaming
Nah no fricking way. If they didn't kill anyone for 6.0 then they REALLY shouldn't waste a Scion on this subpar filler story, imagine your legacy being "I died on the most boring plot point of the game". At least Papalymo died before the bad times arrived. If any of them dies, it should be in 1 or 2 expansions once there's a big threat built up that feels worthy of actually claiming a main character.
>XIV
>Killing any main character whatsoever
If they had plans to do that they would have done it when it mattered back in 6.0, they're not going to kill someone and MUCH LESS someone popular with the females such as Thancred or Urianger the queer king/queen
>literally "it came to me in a dream"
at least im trying to talk about the game
Remember:
If you're going to say something negative about this game just start with:
>Barry here,
or end post with
>Best regards, Barry
The existence of this boogeyman makes 14gays feel safer
have they fixed this yet? can I use all my skills in old content?
Nope. Pretty sure that's "working as intended".
yeah but it needs to stop working
they need to fricking push inner release down to lvl 50 or something, berserk is such a miserable shit button
>do roulette as NIN
>all my AoE is gone
>Having to manually refresh Huton
>Black Mage without Umbral Soul
AAAÀAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>getting level synced completely breaks some jobs and makes them all boring to play
>this fine because... thats just how it's always been
when will we stop getting cucked like this and force yoshi to change this
>>this fine because... thats just how it's always been
It really isn't. It gets worse and worse every expansion because of pruning so even though that's how level sync has always worked, you're losing more and more kit each time and you wind up with situations where DRK had Dark Passenger, then they took it away for whatever reason, then effectively gave it back in the form of Shadowbringer but at a much higher level so while you could use Dark Passenger in Alex raids before, you cannot use it's equivalent there anymore.
Never, unless you manage to brainwash all players to unsub with you and demand changes
I guarantee there would be a lot more people doing old raids and trials if level syncing didnt take all their skills away
>18k viewers for the biggest patch of the year
>WoW has almost 3 times more with absolutely nothing going on in the game
Its over sisters...
WoW is so insufferably boring to watch it makes me want to eviscerate myself
yet it has more viewers than ffxiv which I assume isn't boring... weird, right?
>ermm, you must be for side I hate, then?
No XIV is boring to watch too lol
Sit down. See you next thread anon
>XIV threads still super active and full of butthurt wowtrannies
The game is in fact "bussing"
The games been going to shit since Shadowbringers sadly im not sure why they keep skimping on content.
I RAFFU EVERY TIMEU THE MUSCURAR GENTRE MAN FARRS INTO THE GROUNDU
Thank you yoshida, I will look forward to his next escapade.
>there is more game discussion in the Ganker thread rather than the actual general dedicated to the game on a patch day
Grim...
/vg/ is just trannies ERPing. Like 90% of Ganker posters/xiv players, they dont play the game
You don't enjoy posting your modbeast in suggestive and lewd ways to grind thread rep anon?
im trying to make a cool mod for summoner but the people who run the modding discords are being gatekeepy homosexuals.
do any of you idiots happen to know how to replace the skeletons and animations on summons
These are the paths for summon models and skeletons. Use textools to do a model swap of the monster you want into the summon it's replacing, and do a fileswap for the skeleton files. More recent monsters don't seem to have .skp files for some reason though so you can skip those.
And here's an example of the monster filepaths, just replace the 700 here with whatever the model number for the intended monster is.
Holy shit thank you so much anon. I fricking love you
>yoshida and devs treats ff14 and ff16 players as morons and make content piss easy
>somehow it doesn't attract braindead twitch morons
How can this be? Does ff14 need to be more braindead? How can Yoshida attract the more casual audience?
Nobody wants to watch shit dead games, the fact that WoW has 5 times XIV's viewership on any day is pretty telling.
Maybe yoshida should make good games and people would watch
Like Minecraft.
>IS DATTUH GREG?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! HE BACK!!!!! NOOOOOO HIRUDE-SAN WATCH OUT!!!!
I wish Greg was back
greg hangs out with jack now
Just play other, better games.
Guaranteed yoshi can't wait for season 1 of D4
He doesn't want to farm tomestones of shit to buy shit that is 5 ilvl higher ... for no reason whatsoever
Or touch grass, it's warm and nice outside
Its confirmed yoshitpiss play diablo 4? LMAO cant wait when he copy the shitty items effects of diablo 4 to try give more flavour shit to iyem ins ffxiv
Yoshida is a huge Diablo gay. His dream job is to work on Diablo
He has been to every Blizzcon
90% of the playerbase would love it since the way gear currently work in XIV is fricking abysmal, it's one of the worst gear systems I've ever seen in a game
This. Sacrificing fun for the sake of balance leads toba stale and sterile game.
I'm sure xivgays would love items with some flavor in the game
The best part about the current system is that it isn't a system at all. It's literally just a difficulty modifier that is indirectly available to the players and this is a good thing. I would gladly trade the "perfect" balance in XIV to get some fricking onhit effects or some other random bullshit, before ShB and EW I would have argued against it but since you essentially pick a "role" and not a "job" when you level thanks to the game sharting exp in your general direction constantly, it's hard to not actually end up with atleast 2 jobs at max level by the time you are done with the MSQ so job balance is almost a non-issue thanks to that alone nowadays.
>Just play other, better games.
I downloaded Blue Archive the other day.
Why does the /aco/ and /trash/ threads ban NPC lewds? Where else am I supposed to get them?
>inb4 twitter and discord
That's why I want to browse a thread, to avoid those
They don't ban NPC lewds they ban e-girl shit
The only possible case you could be referring to is Khloe porn
I just want some lewd Lyse that is all
Literally the only rules on /trash/ are no doxxing and no explicit e-girl so you might just be moronic
play the game
I don't want to practice my BLU opener
