Because Stormblood sucks and I'd rather just play Vagrant Story again
are you me? i also stopped in stormblood. i tried to go back to the game twice but i just can't be bothered
i really can't believe how bad that expansion was, especially when it came right after HW
It got a little boring, and I don't like that the game is about squeezing out uptime in harder raids down to the seconds, sometimes even miliseconds. Way too sweaty for me.
a mix between getting sick of watching cutscenes and Stormblood getting boring
I really, really loved Heavensward so it's probably the latter
been getting the itch to get back into it lately
I never started in the first place. Not that interested in any MMORPG to be honest.
Everything revolves around completing a deliberately long slog of bullshit
>you HAVE
>leveled all jobs to 90
>got all BLU spells
>made every splendorous tool
>done all savage raids (of which current ones take weeks to clear the final one)
>done all ultimates
>completed eureka + BA
>completed bozja + DRS
>maxed island sanctuary
>completed every relic
>maxed shared fates
>got all triple triad cards
>maxed all deliveries
>maxed your chocobo
>got all loot from all treasure dungeons
>gotten married
>got a large mansion fully furnished
>HAVEN'T YOU??
There is a difference between "content" and "chores", that is all I will say.
not to mention you physically cannot do any of this without sitting through hours of mandatory story cutscenes because everything is locked behind MSQ progression. you dont have a choice of what to do in FFXIV, its a singleplayer game where nothing unlocks until you "get to it" in the story. all of the other players in the world are never mentioned and dont canonically exist- you are the only person doing anything and the 4000 people standing in a Stormblood or Endwalker area dont exist to someone who hasnt finished ARR
>I have to... play the game????
the game is shit. if i ask you to crack 90 eggs every time you progress a little bit just to unlock a single activity to do, the entire game is going to sound like a massive fricking pain in the ass. killing groups of 3 enemies as you walk up a hill for 15 minutes before triggering a 5 minute cutscene of a dragon telling you they dont trust you then you having to go and tell your leaders about it is a shit game. repeat this setup for the 250hrs it takes someone to get to Eureka at the earliest and you have nothign to argue with about why someone wouldnt want to do that to experience everything the game has to offer
Who's forcing you to play?
>thread titled "why did you stop"
>dumdum turns up asking "whose forcing you to play?"
lol
So who is forcing you?
absolute fricking brainlet post, FFXIV is definitely your speed
I know what you're getting at but I think it's more people want the game to feel a bit more like a sandbox.
It doesn't have to be OSRS or anything but just yesterday I was playing with a friend who capped on tomes but hadn't finished HS yet, they asked if I could taxi them to Idyllshire so they could buy some items and the game just pretty much says
>Nope! Can't do that yet. Go finish HS
Content feels too locked away behind the MSQ. If you start the game in Limsa you can't even get to the other 2 city states unless you progress the MSQ despite the fact that a Ferry does exist to take you from Limsa to Vesper Bay
Literally nobody spends time in expansion areas. Everyone is erping in limsa
This just sounds like a bunch of petty bullshit to quit a game over and even then.. Nobody is forcing you to play the game either.
Even dumber is the second poster complaining he has to play through the MSQ despite there being an option to skip all that with money.
I think anyone who thinks like legitimately has something wrong with their brains or something. Like just say the game isn't for you and move on to something else instead.
>Even dumber is the second poster complaining he has to play through the MSQ despite there being an option to skip all that with money.
Are you fricking moronic? Getting charged money to skip shitty content is a legitimate complaint.
>Are you fricking moronic?
...Are you? The biggest appeal of FFXIV to most players is it's story and MSQ.
This has been such a stupid problem in this expansion specifically
>Oh, we added the variable difficulty dungeons you can do with 4 *or less* players and even made them with a unique gimmick to stand out
>oh and here's a Savage version on top of that just for the hardcore players to have something to play with, since we also used to get requests for 4-man Savage content
>You have to have beaten Endwalker though
crazy but sure, keep up with the content
the unforgivable one is
>Oh we made this completely isolated, seperate game mode where you run a little island and play Stardew Valley
>No skills or progress on crafting or gathering is needed, nothing you do on the island effects anything outside it, this mode exists purely for fun and little rewards like minions, mounts, etc
>Oh, but you have to beat Endwalker though
fricking insanity
I only talk to players who have this
Is that content that takes three real life years to do?
I took me about 8 months, not too bad
so you only talk to bots and chink farmers?
8 months of what
I'm not even sure how to get it, is it just Dalriada grind?
Its the gathering and crafter grind in the diadem, around 800 hours if done efficiently
Not OP but the most daunting task is gathering with MIN/BTN. FSH is doable without much problems within a month and the crafter can now be macroed. You literally just need enough gil to buy the materials and crystals needed for the senseless grind
although the crafting shit is all expert crafts and the macro only gets you the lowest quality possible to turn in which makes the grind 100x as long
That's only going to affect the money you spend, not much of your time. Just afk craft with a macro program or a plugin and you are done in a day
I afk crafted and it still takes weeks and weeks anon, also I traded a little bit of sanity for the mount, next im going for the s rank hunts mount
I only talk to triple saints, no one cares about your mount.
if Dante Alighieri himself, instead of just writing the divine comedy and giving a copy to to me- made it an "experience" and every 12 lines of the story he told me to go run to the store and bring back some bacon i would call him a shit storyteller and the entire experience one of the most boring things in fiction.
FFXIV is a shit game with shit quests and is a complete timewaste to play to get to what is supposedly good that lasts 5 minutes before you go another 5 hours with nothing happening
I got a job with twelve hour shifts and could no longer afford time to raid with friends. Instead of playing sparingly and always being behind in gear and progression, I just stopped logging in.
The people I played with completely lost the plot and treated it like their life, so I quit.
>completely lost the plot and treated it like their life, so I quit.
I quit the day that I asked some homosexual back in 2018 why he walked around with basically modern clothing on in-game when he could just do that in real life if he really wanted to. He then proceeded to tell me that he actually looks good in it in-game. Pure and utter mental illness.
you quit because of modern clothing in a final fantasy game? can you please tell me what ff games you've played other than 14
No I quit because the vast majority of people who play the game are parasocial freaks who spend hours blurring the line between themselves and their player character. It's just not the kind of mental illness I want to be around. I've got no use for it and I'm never going to be friends with these people, so why play?
Why is that a bad thing? lad was at least self aware
Finished endwalker, maxed all my jobs and crafts, made some gil got a fc house then spent a few months just doing the log in chores to hang out with my friends but it got real stale. XIV was a good time for a year, but it can never fill the hole in my heart left from XI.
Based XIchad.
I accomplished far less in XI than what I have in XIV and it's still just nothing in comparison.
I miss exploring in places like Zi'Tah where I had a very real chance of dying at max level for the chance to get a rare item or material; I will never forget exploring Ro'Maeve SOLO to get that moon key.
Or my own personal farming method, clearing out Delkfutt's Tower bottom to top solo. Pallas and his buddies could drop some rare items that sold very well.
Just that feeling of the world unfolding before you at your own pace. I miss that like nothing else. Yeah there were loading screens but they existed as places. There were no instanced dungeons.
>XIV was a good time for a year, but it can never fill the hole in my heart left from XI.
This. I played FFXIV from 2.0 through to the end of Stormblood content and while it was ridiculously fun at first (thanks to playing with friends from other MMOs), it couldn't fill the void that XI could. It just didn't feel as magical and I'd have probably quit at Heavensward if it weren't for friends playing. I also got a 3 day ban for calling someone a troony and this was around 7 years ago before the LGBTQ movement was on maximum overdrive on the Internet, that really opened my eyes and made me realise I probably won't ever make good honest friends who I can be myself with in an MMO ever again
I only played it in the first place some of my friends were playing it. I had a falling out with those friends so I stopped playing it.

Yes please.
Not much content I'm interested in. Much worse though, is that fact that so many jobs are playing so similar to each other now it feels like theres no variety at all. I can't live on BLM alone.
Endwalker story rushed what should have been two more expansions worth of the main quest and left it all on a sour note. They then made that sour taste even worse by producing some of the worst post .0 quests and characters the game has seen.
I'm only in stormblood right now but from what I hear it's crazy how much shit happens in shb and ew compared to how little happened in arr-stb
Because GW2 respects my time
Cause there's no content and the latest patch sucks
Unless you're a drooling homosexual who enjoys using it as a chatroom and modbeasts, you're not really getting a bang for your buck right now.
Because they israeliteed us out of BLU content
There's plenty of content. Anyone who thinks otherwise either hasn't played the game and is just talking shit or is a brain-dead RPgay.
>theres plenty of content bro, trust me, ill show you how sick all of it is in 15 weeks once youve finally sat through all of the cutscenes to get to it.
>can you play at least samurai through it? nah bro youre 50 hours away from that one, sorry
t. gay who's never played XIV
the community of the game is degenerate in a way that is distasteful to me, it's like second life level. I don't mind porn and nudity or even erp but it's just gross and weird on xiv.
every thread, every community outlet is saturated with it
This. It reached an extreme point now. Ive been playing since 2.0 in fricking Balmung of all places and it couldn't compare to what it is now.
Frick this game's community.
is this game worth playing after msq? i'm making my way through stormblood but have a bad feeling that once this is all done i'm probably not going to enjoy the actual game, since i haven't really managed to so far. if it's more of the same of what i already have access to then maybe i shouldn't waste time..
I'm going to stop playing once I finish MSQ + all dungeons, extremes and savage and ultimate raids. Solo clear all deep dungeons and do the eureka and bozja bosses. That's at least a couple years worth of content for me to get through since I'm still in stormblood.
You are never going to solo deep dungeons.
Cut your losses now, it doesn't get any better.
>waiting for someone dropping the relics thread
After 3.2k hours and playing it almost daily the past 1.5 years, I've hit my limit and no self-imposed grind or achievement is fun enough at this point. The game is starting to feel like a chore which is my sign to take a break. I don't think anything in the current patch will interest me enough either, which is good for me since I haven't taken a big break since I started playing the game last year.
I do still like to log in on Tuesdays to do some weeklies and capping tomestones, but even that is starting to lose it's luster.
Played it to death and then took a break. Wanted to come back for latest patch, but my internet connection is so bad in my current residence that I can't play more than 5 minutes at a time. I'll pick it up after I move again, some time around next patch most likely.
>tfw missing out on current savage tier
Post-EW content is mostly dry. Nothing like Eureka or Bozja post-SB and post-ShB.
I couldn't get past ARR postgame without actually falling asleep at my desk. I can't play MMOs anymore. I'd rather play good games like Final Fantasy 5, Final Fantasy 9, or Final Fantasy 10 than ever touch this game again.
Finished the story after Endwalker. Saved the world for real this time and now my character is fricking Alisaie in perpetuity until I feel like returning. Have no interest starting the void storyline just yet.
Is this tier more fun to prog as a tank or a healer? Or maybe melee DPS?
I'm looking for a role to to equip with alt gear
No

Whew for a moment I was afraid I'd actually have to play the game to upgrade the relic. Thanks Yoshi-P.
You are welcome. This way, you have more time to play better games!
Did we ever learn what the frick happened that 6.x relic series turned out to be the laziest shit in MMO genre history? There wasn't even a covid this time around
Probably too many people b***hing on the official forums about being forced to do certain content they don't want to (Eureka/Bozja) in order to upgrade the relic, so now you can do any content you want for tomestones. Or maybe they just lack any sort of creativity so they had no idea what to even do without Eureka/Bozja.
The entire dev team was working on FFXVI, this whole expansion was filler and buying time for that.
This a new regura?

I tried at least.
I just don't try, so that I didn't fail
make your own fc, thats what i did
find another game to try to make friends in, everyone playing this one is mentally ill or a friend collector
That's every MMO.
The proper advice is to say "don't play MMOs"
this one is uniquely bad in my experience
not in terms of being a friend collector or having mentally ill, like mentioned. That's every MMO. something about the genre
It never was an adventure, friends left, saved the world so it was time. Playing everyday for 8 years and suddenly stopping was a damn whiplash since my entire schedule was structured around playing it.
>BLU gets a mandatory dot mage slot
SMN boomers we're back
kinda got bored and waiting for the next alliance raid, I could just make an alt but im busy enjoying other games right now
The MSQ that everyone seems to be all hyped about is pure single player virtual novel experience without any sort of choice.
The game literally won't let you level with friends unless it's a dungeon.
The world is absolutely soulless, just random zones connected by loading screens, which btw take a nose dive after ARR.
Raids and Trials are just as soulles - get ported in front of a boss on a perfectly square or round platform floating in the sky.
Alliance raids are just as pointless, only there are multiple bosses with a pack of trash or a miniboss between them. But nothing new or interesting.
The ever present lag makes everything just suck even more.
PvP feels like it's there because other mmos do it, but with how it completely replaces all your skills so your job plays nothing like it does anywhere else, plus the lag, it feels extremely unfun.
Crafting looks interesting at first, but then you find out everyone just presses a macro button that some autist calculated is the best way to do it and posted on the internet. And you can buy anything crafted on the market board, so why even bother.
Bard performance suffers from the same, if not worse, just download an automatic key presser and hit play. At least you can mute that now, so I don't have to heard the cacophony every time I visit Limsa or Gridania.
It then all comes down to just collecting shit - glam or your house. Or go full moron with the mods and just do the cringy - as they call it, "rolelplay" - with the far gone degens.
They should just delete BLU and make it a generic caster at this point.

PLD is a direct copy from Guild Wars2
LOL
>any sword with blue glow/flames is now "a direct copy"
Most of them actually look quite good this time
Not THAT good though
Why have they literally NEVER made a weapon for tanks with the same yellow glow as the Eureka elemental gear, or a weapon for DRG/RPR with the same turquoise glow as theirs?
Is the hairstyle on the BLU cat a new one?
I didn't like a single one of those...
PLD and SAM are alright. I also like the motif of the SMN book. BLM is within expectations. Rest is just meh

>monk gets shit that doesn't match any existing armor again.
its fine we already won, the contest weapon is amazing, it looks better than the ultimate/savage weapons and probably whatever the next 10 newly designed monk weapons will look like.
They should hire fans lol.
Here's my rating.
Paladin's sword is an S, but the shield is a B. DNC, RDM, SAM, NIN, AST, and DRK are pretty similar to relics we've had before.
>s rating for that abortion of a radioactive hazard scythe
You have awful taste. it should have been blue
Why is MNK always bad?
It's not ALWAYS bad, just the vast majority of the time. They get like one good stage per expac out of the whole relic line. Shadowbringers Tonfa were pretty good if you're into tonfa. Nobody actually is but if you WERE, they're a solid design.
I would force myself to be into tofa is the alternative is what we have right now
don't like the story
don't want to level more than 1 job
I honestly miss MMOs where you play ONE job.
50% of the "content" in this game is leveling other jobs you're not really interested in, simply because you haven't done it yet and so much stuff is locked behind it.
got bored and the people playing this game are shitty so there's no reason to stick around for the social aspect
I consider the story done with endwalker.
Mmo‘s are not made to be played in summer.
I get a sudden urge to play MMOs during Christmas holidays.
it's shit
Why can't we have one xiv thread without a bait OP.....
I didn't
I just realized we're getting a new expansion reveal next week.
Are we getting an actual job reveal or is it just going to be a very vague teaser of the full cinematic that gives nothing away of even our destination?
>Are we getting an actual job reveal or is it just going to be a very vague teaser of the full cinematic that gives nothing away of even our destination?
Latter. Expect nothing besides teasers. Yoshi's shirt will have a hint what one of the jobs will be, please look forward to trying to speculate what it is.
Shadowbringers reveal teased GNB with Thancred, though they didn't officially announce the job.
Next week will do the same with Krile for the new Casting job.
>EW *content* consisting of logging 2 days a week to set up your island or doing roulettes for 2 or 3 days once to make your relic

Ganker likes to be negative because they think they'll be less disappointed if they shit on it first instead of being excited. Working themselves into a Shoot, as it were.
and there it is
I'm not going to pretend to be excited for less of the same.
I had an entire FC like that too, and one day they all quit at the same time because they realized they actually didn't like the game and the only thing keeping them logging in was each other.
We started playing D&D for free instead.
It will happen to you, too. Just wait and see.
At least I can rest easy knowing that my brand of autism doesn't make me shitpost in threads for games I don't like anymore
Got me there. I hold my hands up, I only come back because I have a faint glimmer of hope that it won't be shit, and I'm disappointed every time.
Mental illness
Instead your brand of autism makes you shitpost in threads that legit ask why people aren't playing the game any more.
Point to where I asked that
I'll be more positive about the game when the updates stop being shit.
>all my frens and people I talk to
>in game
>are mostly happy with it
I wonder why.
The doomposters don't play the game? what a surprise, who could have seen this one coming
It's like there is nothing to do
Anon? Your ultimate clears?
What about them?
Oh, carry on then
Frens taking a break aren't dooming either though
How new are you? Ganker is like this about literally every game.
The other threads I shitpost in aren't nearly this bad
Some games get it worse, but Ganker is always negative and heavily shitpost-y and doomsday. The board will never get over being right about TORtanic.
I wanted to play machinist. I had to play for like a month to get that job and by that point I was already sick of it. It's inexcusable to not have all classes available early on.

they did, same with people hating eureka, and the hw/arr relic grinds. you literally could no talk about eureka here when it was current and the vast majority of people in this thread definitely have not done it either.
>ESL moron
>whining about eureka/bozja
yea figures
>ESL
MY T BUTTON IS BROKEN ALRIGHT IT DOESNT REGISTER SOMETIMES LEAVE ME ALONE
>whining about eureka/bozja
homie reread my post, no where am i complaining about bozja or eureka, im complaining about the people that claim no content in the game and "old content is better" when they themselves have not played it. people fricking HATED eureka and thats a fact, even if i myself like it. if it were up to me, you'd only be allowed to post in these threads if you have the demi ozma mount.
only limsa idle homosexuals hated eureka bozja, people that actually fricking played the game enjoy it
i hated bozja because it took away my dd, had nothing to do with the content
i have no idea if people complain now about eureka orthros but i enjoyed my grind to solo 100
I don't think anyone complains about the EW deep dungeon because its like the ONLY bit of content that wasn't worthless added in these fricking patches.
the maps could have been better but the actual content was good
>grind
After I got my aetherpool maxed I cleared it on my first attempt, that's why I hate it
I don't even want to go back to get the mount and every PF group I've joined (there are very few now a days) has been full of actual moronic shitters and I was soloing everything by floor 50 so I just leave
Potd and hoh were both so much better, even with palace's 150 floors of literal garbage
I wasn't a fan of how the armor looked on Aeturna, so I didn't bother going back for that mount myself but I don't see myself going back either.
I hated bozja because of its shitty muted colors, ugly sets and how long the grind is for the shitty medals
If they updated Bozja like they did with Eureka, it would be remembered fondly more.
Literally all of bozja besides the raids is just soulless slop, echo won't fix that
Change flat, empty grey fields of literally nothing with no landmarks into anything else and Bozja will be dramatically improved.
Before eureka was buffed majority of people hated it. I remember when you couldn’t mount up and killing stuff took forever
because they werent there when people took a look at bozja and said "where the FRICK is my deep dungeon yoship we traded that kino for this?"
and then when he actually does release a deep dungeon an expansion later people say "where the FRICK is my bozja content yoship we traded that kino for this?"
and on the wheel goes
I will free us from the wheel!
>the dragon is literally forming a wheel
the thing is, why do they need to replace one thing with another instead of just adding it to the game?
its a question of resource allocation
in interviews he always implies there's some budget constraints whenever content is planned
for example its why we also never get more than one dungeon per patch
because it is generally assumed having to code and debug the trust system is eating that part of the budget
for much of endwalker's post-patch we've had the devs update the MSQ dungeon experience into duty support with trusts, thats a frick-ton of resources used, probably equivalent to making delubrum/dalriada
here is hoping that once they're done they can now re-allocate into other stuff
>game makes hundreds of millions of dollars every month from subs, cash shop and fantas
>muh budget
Okay.
don't forget they run FFXI under the same roof with one (1) singular person handling the entire game that has anywhere from 80-100k+ subs, with a sub fee that's significantly more expensive than XIV
but oh nooooo the budget aaaa the money we are so poor
>but oh nooooo the budget aaaa the money we are so poor
square needs to fund nomura's next flop
yeah apparently square doesnt have much faith in their mmo
which is why their budget is as shoestring as can be
making money doesnt mean that money goes back into ffxiv
why do you think we joke that ffxiv was literally funding that disaster forspoken
if this summons he who must not be named FRICK YOU BARRY
>yeah apparently square doesnt have much faith in their mmo
I don't think it's their faith as much as it is that Yoshida has a tight hold on the reigns and would very much rather starve the game out than beg the corps for more money. It's the Fromsoft issue of making mediocrity and everyone praising you for it, so why do any more than that?
you know squeenix just funnels most of that shit to their other failed projects like shitspoken right?
They don't, storm blood had eureka and hoh
almost like stormblood was the best expac with the best content but homosexuals only care about the story so it will forever somehow be the worst expac because of a rushed story
>mfw in 7.0 Tataru has somehow taken over the Tomestone trade and Rowena has mysteriously disappeared
Freedom.. but at what cost
I am not giving money to Squeenix for an MMO experience functionally stuck in 2004. Paying a sub for the """gameplay""" in XIV is beyond deranged. I also refuse to just watch the story on youtube or something because I'm anal about playing video games on my own. So I just wait for the free periods and go through the absolute absurdism of fetch quests as much as I can during those couple of days. (No, I can't play for free because I bought it at launch and I am not going through the sludge of ARR again on a free account.) I am also horrified that I gave them full price for their latest expansion FFXVI and will never trust them again.
>I am not giving money to Squeenix for an MMO experience functionally stuck in 2004
that sounds like a fun time, what the frick is a 2010s and 2020s mmo experience? kmmos p2w, gw2 and arenanet abandoning every and any form of content they release that is even slightly interesting? or wow?
This game has content, but most of it is braindead shit
Don't care. Posting best girls.
Krile!
Tataru is a prostitute. Lolorito is the better israelite because he tells his daughter about how badass we are.
Tataru tells anyone who'll listen how badass the WoL is, its good for business
Sure but she's a prostitute while Lolorito is a family man.
>she's a prostitute
According to Hanwiener who is a little cuck.
>Lolorito is a family man.
Tataru busted her ass as a child, working at a israeliteeller that paid her a pittance to put food on the table after her father squandered the family fortune.
Tataru has eyes for WoL's dick only. And Lolorito is a little punk b***h who thinks WoL is dumb, yeah no shit his 'niece' is his daughter.
Tataru was canonically the town bike during her stay in Japan.
>Hanwiener lied
Cope Wedge, Hanwiener has never lied to you. He is unironically more trustworthy than the simp cat and mommy milkers.
>He is unironically more trustworthy than the simp cat and mommy milkers.
Shut up Hanwiener
Servers are up in 3 minutes, and you will regret doubting Hanwiener.
Doubt it
>canonically the town bike during her stay in Japan
Ishgard isn't in Japan

>Cultist shiteaters eat it up and try to defend it
I just started as a little Gladiator. Just finished dinner, and waiting for maintenance to finish in 10-15 minutes. I played before in 2015 but got filtered by post-ARR and IRL BS.
Cute spud
I find farming tomestones to be extremely boring, I hate the usual dungeon grind, after some time of playing dungeons really start to feel boring since its the same shit over and over and people dont even talk anymore in a MMO.
Is this a only me problem? or does FFXIV feels a lot more cold than other MMOs despite what the community says? its rare to get a conversation going nowadays
the idea of roulettes absolutely murders any conversation, everyone wants to be in and out as fast as possible
Conversations happen in your free company and linkshell chats.
Do they? In my experience all of those get shuffled off to discord. At least in the FCs I've joined. The only chat I see on a regular basis in-game is limsa idlers, hunt trains, or nightclub advertising shout chats.
I like to talk to the other autists waiting for big fish windows
I stopped playing 30% into Endwalker a year ago, but I just picked it up again
Yeah I never made a single friend after 700 hours, it's impossible. I'm treating it like a single player game at this point
Sounds like a (you) problem anon
I tried things in Limsa and in FCs but people just didn't seem to care to make new friends
Doesn't help that the dungeons are only cool the first couple of times through but you'll probably run them hundreds of times. Even brand new ones suffer this fate because the roulette is just a coin flip that has only the two most recent while others get shuffled out into a separate, less valuable roulette. Also dungeon gear is largely pointless aside from glams so people are really only ever running them for story progress or tomes with most being tome runners. They just want in and out as fast as possible. Chatting slows that down too much.
Expert roulette and 90 roulette should just be 1 thing. When expert was first added to the game the only two fricking dungeons you could get were Qarn hard and Snowcloak. I remember that shit from 9 years ago because of how fricking miserable it was and its been the standard format ever since
I played from the start of the rerelease. I finished all of the content and then it was grinding one single dungeon. I did that for about a month and dropped it because what a waste of time.
sub fee + nothing to do
Be me:
>Casual player, waste around an hour or two max midweek but mostly I play on weekends for 3 or 4 hours
>Join a chill FC (ShB)
>Do stuff together with FC, hunts, treasure, EX clears/farms, pvp, roulettes.
>FC existed since ARR
>FC leader diagnosed with cancer. Started therapy so couldn't login for months
>Game gave ownership/leadership to one of the newbies
>Officers begged newbie to give role to one of them
>He kicked out everyone and sold estate and FC
Old FC members I knew left the game entirely, I wasn't as invested in this FC as them but seeing this is like the 5th FC I join which gets deleted for a whatever shitty reason makes me either play something else entirely or never interact with this community again...
you're the curse.
if so then I should use it to my advantage and have people pay me to join FCs they dislike so they disband lmao!
the fc would go to an officer, not to someone with a lower rank
Let me in Yoshida
IT'S UP
wait what? is this legit?
the fanfest fight, yes legit
yes but i mean, is the trial in this patch?
Next patch
>sub runs out tomorrow
>everything's pre-farmed
I won
So, BLU mount?
Lmao
aie
Aiiieee I forgot to download the patch
Internetlet
>it's only 600mb
I'm saved
stop at 6.2 pretty much up till the next grand adventure starting.
major burnout if anything i've played every expac heavily but never cleared final savage fights.
I'll probably pick it up again for a month or two around 6.5 catch up cause panda12 fight looks cool.
might also get into horny modding as well idk each expac has played it safe to a formula with somewhat changing each expac, and if the continue then i already know and what to expect to come with next expac pretty much.
which pretty much brings me to the next point is the market is really open to any half decent mmorpg.
because the best content is locked behind needing way too many shitters. I'm fricking 90, I could probably do Eureka's BA with a group of 3 or 4 friends, but they INSIST you be level-synced, losing your 71-90 abilities, have gear FOR that level, and not be able to just steamroll FOUR YEAR OLD CONTENT.
BA specifically is a bad example, as there's organized runs all the time, but DRS is impossible to find a group to do it with, mostly because there's basically no purpose to doing it nowadays. the drops are trash.
Just let me go in and steamroll it for my fricking mount ffs
>only limsa idle homosexuals hated eureka bozja
correction, it's people bad at the game, and that is like 98% of the playerbase, just see below.
>Just let me go in and steamroll it for my fricking mount ffs
hell no frick off, there should be grinds in the game outside of current content. that's what keeps it fresh and why eureka is still incredibly active.
Eureka is active because it has actual GOOD rewards. Four mounts, Easy access to gil making, glams that don't look like shit, and its REQUIRED to make the relic weapon for that expansion. You can do 90% of SHB relic in other content, which to me completely defeats the purpose of having Bozja at all.
My complaint is that fricking shitters flood up the fun content that has no reward, and makes for a frustrating experience
What happened to Dynamis getting the other four servers
WHERE IS THE MOUNT YOSHIP
The raid boss should have been the fricking blu mount instead of store cancer
In the cash shop. XVI flopped preaseu understandu
>XVI flopped
no it didn't
It is the lowest selling FF title in thirty years, it faceplanted and now we're going to pay the price for it.
What's worse is they cannibalized the XIV dev team to put it out and I'm pretty sure the game will never recover.
You guys can honestly have Takai back, dude is probably the worst director to have ever touched mainline Final Fantasy
It's really not bad for a PS5 exclusive.
Get out play something else
Finished EW's MSQ so waiting until the next expansion as I don't care for raiding.
not nice enough.
Raids and dungeons are the worst part of the game. Prove me wrong
It's honestly the playerbase that makes them the worst part.
homies that say this quite literally afk in limsa and do nothing other than complain.
*proves him wrong* heh bet you didn't expect it
>raids
no
>dungeons
yes, the content is utterly braindead and the layouts are so fricking boring
I do not know how an entire fricking dev studio couldn't have a singular person who would sit down at their desk and say "maybe I shouldn't design a glorified hallway today"
I legitimately don't understand what kind of person you have to be to behave like this. I was a chronic limsa afker to the point where it would take me days to do a patch msq because I didn't wanna move my ass but I still did most of the content on release or at least in the relevant expansion. Missing out on release UCOB because I was too busy erping will forever be one of my biggest regrets with this game.
WHAT THE FRICK
WHAT IS LITERALLY THIS SECOND PART OF THE HILDIBRAND QUEST WITH THE TORTOISES
DID THEY LITERALLY NOT TEST THIS
>expecting any effort in endwalker patches
LOL
Nashu sex.
I would "sex" her if you know what I mean
>Meracydia is an open world, FFXI-style continent with various biomes
>Mobs range from Lv1 to Lv100 out in the field, it is easy to get killed by wandering too far
>Theme and narrative revolve around exploring yourself, you can do it solo or in a party a bit like treasure dungeons
>No "difficulty" meme, anything can be easy or hard depending on which job you play; you cannot change job outside of the main town, no cringe snapshot savage mechanics
>Blue Mage can be played normally and it's not too OP
>Can find coffers out in the wild with Rare/Ex (untradeable) items on par with Savage gear
>Each job has a personalized part in the narrative
>Your chocobo has a part in the narrative
>Besieged returns - it's a free-for-all where monsters attack the city at night
Would it save 7.0?
Just lift the moron time gate lock on raid gear and I will be happy
450 tome cap needs to go too
>Meracydia is an open world, FFXI-style continent with various biomes
90% of the playerbase would stop doing msq and sub for clubbing only
Your getting constant walking, teleporting, and cutscenes for 7.0 msq gameplay as per usual, please understand.
I hope they expand on the ridiculously badly designed stealth sections in EW just to piss players off. What the frick were they thinking?
>the idiots made the first quest objective a regular spawning mob
Jesus Christ what moron C-team is working on these patches?
I quit because Endwalker being the "end of the zodiark arc" gave me the perfect end point to leave. Also I had played it so much that it started to qualify as psychological torture to keep playing it. Perfect timing really. As the pink haired lady had just taken over locilazation and changed beast tribes to tribal quests. A terrible sign of things to come. My legacy account is for sale if anyone is interested. I'm done. Never going back.
What you don't live the epic Twitter humor when having to pick a dialogue choice?
I plan to sub for one month in 5 years and marvel at how fricking far the quality has dropped, and how many non-binary characters there are. Get out while you still can fren.
The fact she's gonna be the host of the lore panel at fanfest instead of Koji shows that the changing of the guard has happened already. Take this anon's advice. It will only get worse from here on. This game has peaked and if you want to hold on to your good memories don't let them get tainted.
Game's already ruined. You have people with zero Charisma the NA community teams invites to be "announcers" for PvP and other shit to bore everyone to tears, let alone the fact you have a troony and pedophile, diapergay who are your community reps for NA. This is not including the playerbase which is bummy as frick.
>troony pedo diapergay
Kyoko Star? Maygi? Who?
No, the troony is someone who used to doxx and harrass people in-game and would take it to IRL. The diapergay pedo is Nariko Star with her husband, Kaiyoko Star who made a twitlong saying they "weren't aware of their actions" of drawing sexualized children. Imagine going to fanfest to hang out with these fricking lunatics.
>grown ass man shitting in diapers while maintaining his only worth in life, that being playing dressup every week for the fashion report
People like this should be chemically castrated
I dunno what to say man, Eorzeans have some serious brain rot in this game. It gets even worse when they develop parasocial relationships with FFXIV "content creators"
bro she's been in charge for a long time now
moron
PLUGINS DOKO???
>have to wait a week for the bard plugins to work again
and I just got finished making a ton of new songs for my band
i literally cannot skip this hildebrand dogshit fast enough
you have to be a complete mental midget to enjoy this
Ive skipped the entire plot for the weapons and I usually like hilda stuff, it dragged on way too long. no idea what the frick is going on I just saw some low poly dude
it got a smile or two out of me in ARR
so i gave it a chance all the way through to the end of Stormblood
absolute complete trash, the same jokes over and over again
fine for those who like it, but tying it to actual content was such a fricking mistake
i am glad the hildebrand relic series has been such well received content
KINO
Are FFXIV players too stupid not use the dogshit in-game screenshot fuction?
>NOOOO YOU NEED TO DOWNLOAD BLOATWARE THAT CAN MAKE SCREENSHOTS
absolute monkey, please read a book
Hildibrand being pure kino as usual.
You have to admire the little shit's dedication.
Because the Endwalker patch cycle has been trash. I gave it until 6.3 before I dropped it and probably won't come back until 7.0. Hopefully we'll have an idea of whether that will be a dumpster fire or not here in a couple weeks. I know they don't show much at the NA fest but if they get off on the wrong foot here that would be bad.
No datamining this time around?
lmao nothing to datamine
Dunno, was wondering if they added some BLU mount or title or something
Or some cool hidden reward to Variant
hahaha
Blue Mage can get Forbidden Blue for clearing Eden, no mount, no 70+80 series title
Nah they have to waste time on v/c crap to have barely any rewards with the good ones being tradeable on the MB so the erpers can feel included
Likewise BLU is not terribly popular with raidbrains and erpers so putting much effort into it its low priority for SE
what do you need?
What a fricking WEEB
Hanwiener is LITERALLY me.
Does the game actually remember the last roll you've registered or does it just pick a random one?
Started skipping the Hildibrand cutscenes this patch, so fricking terrible.
No, they picked that one becuase it's le funny maymay
Sorry you're too much of a moronic beastmod. Please have a nice day so there's one less moronic troony in the world.
>BLU can't fight WoL
>No new mount or 70+80 achievement at all
>20 new spells, the smallest amount yet with many slots being wasted on memes
Small indie company I guess
Is that new Nue mount the market board trash from the new criterion dungeon
cutscenes were shit
figuring out how to fricking login to my fricking account because their game login system and everything to do with booting up the game is a fricking 3rd worlder nightmare
the MSQ is too long, i want to play videogames not watch a movie

Do you think she sits up at night and thinks of how she embarassed herself in the Subterranean? Y'know, when she wanted to fight those rodents but ran away because the other things.
There's a fricking paywall to party up with your friends. That is such bullshit. I'd come back if the game went fully free to play and the only thing you could buy was cosmetics or building related things.
The new hair is fricking perfect.
youre ugly
>troonylander
You say that, but 90% of the troonybase play either fem.Au Ra or fem.Viera
Catgirl not viera, fem viera is a race for gooner wowrats and fat women
Every single troony I know in game is a rabbit. I hate them all but one of them is a decent raider so I have to put up with it

Isn't that Hephestios' hairstyle?
Now show it on a lala

My wife Krile is so cute
We need to see her with her hair down.
>FF V Krile is her 7.0 job outfit
Please.
If they have her in her V Krile's outfit, I will call Yoshida based and will praise him daily
She has a problem
am i getting royalties for this
Hahahahahaha... No. Tataru owned you the moment she grabbed your dick.
Nope, it all goes straight to Tataru
Leveling BLU in the overworld doesn't take that long. 4-5 ultravibrations and you level up. Problem is finding a spot with enough mobs to pull and no people around to get in the way

Neverland streaming. How can they cheat like this?
Streaming what?
Funny they said if they got a lot of interest in this they would consider streaming prog only to get absolutely mogged by fricking wow players streaming the content.
I cleared every ultimate and nothing else is worth doing. Time to move on
Time to run my bot to get all the relic upgrades, night night!
Are the relic upgrades just more tomes? I can't log on for a bit

https://twitter.com/search?q=Hildibrand&src=typed_query&f=live If you wanna watch the mental illness happen in real time
How do I stop zoomers from reusing 2007 memes? It's embarrassing
This game caters to these type of people, and they think Hildibrand is peak comedy: https://twitter.com/applejuuce_/status/1680345148658442243/photo/1
i only talk to people who wear the same chad armor as me
I literally do have it, though.
then you're a chad, like me
Is this from the variant dungeon?
No, it was a reward for wintrading to top 100 in the Feast
It's funny how criterion shows the devs can design 4man bosses and even non braindead trash packs. But they willingly chose not to for basic dungeons.
This game is catered to casuals first and foremost
this expansion has had literally nothing for casuals to even do
relics...
That's insulting even for casuals
It is fricking boring, every expansion is vitually the same with the same patch cycle and the same type of content added.
Waiting for 6.5
>hildbirand's whole line are descended from aliens
makes sense
the twist is going to be there was an adoption somewhere down the line
Nashu is asking the real questions.
I still thinks shes a voidsent.
im guessing the thavnir guy is an offshoot manderville cousin.
Of course. It all makes sense now.
Variant music kinda nice
>brandihild wants to do so many activities after this
DEATHFLAGS AHHHHHHH
Blue Mage is garbage and I am tired of pretending its not. It's shit to level up, getting new abilities is shit and before you can even do anything remotely fun aka the harder raids with it you have to spend hour and hours doing the most boring shit in the game.
Meh. Going back to GW2.
THIS GUY IS EVERYWHERE IN THE GAME
>Now he's pretending to be Mistbeard
He wants to die, doesn't he? What next, he's gonna start saying he's the WoL?
This is just hildi questline 2.0 at this point
Is this the same npc who pretended to be one of the old eikon slayers in ARR
Yep
The very same vanquisher of tidu- I mean of titan
Slayer of Leviabeetus.
>Hildishit
Who cares
>Variant Garbage
Who cares
>Blu mage shit
Literally who cares.
Not even worth buying a sub for this month.
Sub ran out, and while I was looking forward to HildiKINO and Variant, I'm not really that much into it to justify subbing for it opposed to just waiting for 6.5.
Unless they do some bigger event than usual for the anniversary.
We are getting Super Sentai armour for Moonfire Faire this year
...ok I'm cosidering it now.
wait for the last day of the moonfire event because then it starts the rising event and another moogle event
>only 2 bosses per variant route
Man...
it was only 2 bosses most of the time in the first one too. you have to pick certain options to unlock more for the normal version.
>alien lore
How can ultimaniacels even recover
Ultima was never an alien and only secondaries ever thought so
cutscene skipper?
Ultima's not an alien, moron. It came from another dimension. Ultima is the fricking Satan of Ivalice lore, it's not an ayylmao.
ivalice lore is dogshit and moronic. matsuno is a fricking washed up hack.
>Ultima's not an alien
>until it brimmed with a force completely alien
>alien
cutscene skipper?
esl moment
Anon do you know what an alien is
When people call Ultima an alien they're talking about outer space lifeforms, not dimensional travelers. Don't be a pedantic shit just because you were wrong.
You're just a moron
An extradimensional being is an alien in a broad sense of the term, but not in the way it was being used and you know it. This conversation started because of Hildibrand space aliens. When people called Ultima an alien they meant a lifeform from outer space. Now that you're wrong you're backpedaling and trying to pretend you never meant that in the first place. Fricking pathetic little israelites.
>but not in the way it was being used
Yes, it is.
Then why was Ultima brought up in relation to Pupus, dipshit?
>Hildibrand is not canon
>Matsunoslop IS canon
simple as
Extradimensional shit is ayylmao.
Is this the bloke who did the angels for SMT4?
Yeah, they had him as a guest artist for the Ivalice raids.
Neat that's the stuff I'm most interested in getting up to.
>Cheese smelling Nashu stalker is still around
>He took the teleporter too
>He's actually vomiting too

Where's the variant trader? Same spot?
>ctrl+f 6.45

This is not a thread for the patch, just the usual formula so the janny doesn't autosage. It just happens that 6.45 just dropped
I finished the story
I'll come back when there's more story
hello sirs the xiv launchers updates will are takes many hour to unexpected issue ok ? we get up next week ok thank u bastard b***h sir
Someone spoonfeed me what attributes to boost for whm relic
Piety.
Crit and det for the big ones and speed for the small one, basically what you should be doing with materia on it
Cheers, shame it looks shit though
It looks like a sex toy on a stick
crit > dhit/det is standard for every job except non parsetroon blm
I simply have been caring less and less about everything post-EW except maybe Myths of the Realm.
>There is no content
What you really mean is there is no content that YOU like.
>Dude, killing 10000 s ranks is content
From a certain point of view.
Don't you like Diadem grind for the pterodactyl mount?
craft kiking and crystalline goyslop and hunt trooning are content in the same sense that you could say sawdust is food
As someone that did all of that garbage, I 100% agree.
TRUE AND REAL
I'm not saying there's no content. I'm saying they're doing less each expansion. You can not refute that.
>less content each expansion
>abandonment of the midcore player who wants engaging, long form content that encourages socialization
>bastardization of the relic to being a tome dump that you're already capped on long before the step comes out
Frick yourself. The game is ruined. I have never been less excited for a fanfest.
its the new industry standard for mmos, the modern mmo only want players who are either turbo casual whales buying everything on the cash shop or hyperfixated .1%ers whose entire maladjusted lives are centered around bleeding edge endgame progression
>abandonment of the midcore player who wants engaging, long form content that encourages socialization
This. I cleared all three ultimates that were out in SHB with my midcore ass static but the one thing that actually made it enjoyable to play with them was all the side stuff we were doing like Bozja. Im not gonna pay a sub just to raidlog 3 days a week because there's literally frickall to do this expansion outside of being a raidtroony.
It took me about five months of “casual” play to reach and do BA because of my job. It was fun and engaging all the way, met a lot people got all sorts of neat things. No idea why they didnt make one for ew and instead went with the single player facebook game as it’s replacement?
>dude the island is totally replacement for a personal house
Not even close.
What the frick
KINO
Couldn't they at least make it 2500 tomes or something? I've been capped on these for weeks and it doesn't even use up all of them
they need to bump the fricking caps up like they did with scrips
>BLU doesn't have entries for Seat of Sacrifice
What is making Diamondback count as a Tank LB3 too hard?
sorry senpai but we make this content within 30 minutes for you Brue Mages no time to make all the fights work or add rewards worth aiming for
They don't even naturally give the spells normal enemies use anymore, they just fricking add in completely new enemies in the field for a spell that didn't even exist before.
I do not care about Ancient homies (they have arguably stripped all the lore of its mystery and wonder)
I do not care about Lahabread, his gay son or his insane b***h wife, Elidibussy, or even more Ancienter homies
I do not care about Indian dragon homies
I fricking hate Garlehomies
I hate Alisaie
I hate Zero
I don't care about Golbez and his dead former best friend Golbez
I just wanted new adventures with Estinien and my imagined future wife Y'shtola
>Neutral on my husband
You're alright anon
You had a post of value until you fell into the disgusting pit of y'shtola worship. Languish and froth at the mouth for all eternity you double moron.
you secure that shit motherfricker, my gorgeous and smart gato is trying to carry the story of these shitty patches by this new failed theater writer on her slender shoulders like Christ carried the cross.
what an ugly and shit character
a shitola if you will
y'shtola is and has always been the most insufferable scion, tied only with alisaie.
I was playing the free trial and got bored. I was in the middle of Heavensward. Right before the trial to kill the sky whale. The gameplay was still extremely boring with the same 123456 basic b***h MMO rotations every other themepark uses. And people also lied, the story never got good. Then the game I was waiting for came out so I dropped it and played that instead.
Overall, a dogshit MMO, rather play OSRS or New World unironically.
I only play the first and last month of each expansion.
never started
Heres your criterion rewards bro.
Can I buy that shit from mb?
Yes, thats the funniest part.
>they learned absolutely NOTHING from the previous dungeon flopping due to the reward structure
Oh my fricking god this expansion fricking sucks so much holy shit man.
Why are people putting up with this shit still
Need the cool stuf for mogstation pls understand.
this should have been the fricking blu mount and you will not change my mind.
100% it was and then they cut it.
there should've been A BLU mount but not that one
no, they are just following what they did with cruise chaser, but that mount was probably originally a reward for something else
>but that mount was probably originally a reward for something else
Sorry gaijin, we have to recoup our losses on ff16 somehow! There's like 2 more datamined outfits that aren't in the game yet but don't worry you'll be able to obtain them for the low low price of 20USD(each)+tip soon.
I hope the sentai outfit is mogstation I want a swimsuit for moonfire
cruise chaser was added at the ass end of shadowbringers when all of the wowbucks were flooding the game, it was pure greed and not to recoup losses for anything. they saw a ton of new players joining and scrapped w/e they originally had planned for the mount and threw it on the shop
LOL
as much as I love my cerberus mount I would've preferred to get it for omega blue and some other mount for DRS clear, a minotaur mount would have actually made sense for it
I spend a lot of time in eureka still to this day because its the closest this game every feels to an MMO anymore
Thank the passive morons in JP that refuse to complain about anything.
but JP DID COMPLAIN about criterion rewards a lot.
That's the variant rewards
why do they still think after all of these years that combat materia is something people want as a reward from anything
I understand it being dud rewards from foray lockboxes/deep dungeon sacks but putting them on vendors for side content currencies is hilariously moronic
also all of this shit is on the market board so lol no point in running this
It's funny considering you can just join a EW hunt train and get about 10/12 materia with minimum effort
i beat the game
Remember:
(You) don't need to pay subscription to enjoy Y'shtola, you can just save up instead and hire an artist to draw (You)r WoL fricking her or whatever or even train an AI to do that for you while also saving money for better games
I did this with text gen. Wrote some crazy shit and coomed harder than I have in months. Got more from it than my last XIV sub month.
At this point I think it's safe to say Endwalker is the worst expansion this game has ever had. It's more profitable than ever now too so it's not going to get better any time soon.
It was safe to say that by 6.2.
>cope
shadowbringer was way worse. and stormblood was the only good expansion.
>shadowbringers was way worse
You're fricking delusional. See a fricking doctor.
I'd take good msq with weak content over good content but dogshit msq
They really need to do something remotely hype to set up for 7.0, at this point I doubt anything short of throwing another moon at the world will hype people up that much
>they really need to
shut the frick up. you are literally living with your mom. why the frick would they listen to your moronic take about the game when it has literally been growing

You're doing the same exact shit wowgays did during cata. Clapping and cheering as your fricking game dies. You absolute cretin.
>the extreme amount of cope
at least post a steam chart or something before you start posting vore shit.
>steam charts
>for a game that has the majority of its playerbase on its standalone launcher and console
Down the street, not across the road!
Are these vore posters in the room with us now?
holy schizo
>UHHHH IT'S POPULAR SO THAT MEANS IT'S BETTER EVEN THOUGH THERE'S LESS CONTENT AND THE MOG STATION IS NOW UPDATED MORE OFTEN THAN THE GAME ITSELF
I wish I could drive a screwdriver into your eye.
lashing out because you know its true
>literally literally literally
Dry you're eyes and find a thesaurus anon I'm not even shitting on it that hard, just saying it's not very motivating to not have much to do between patches and that's not going to bring people back unless 6.5 is something big either content wise or msq wise.
>Game is thriving because people log in at least once every four months.
lol
The expansion itself was fine but post expansion content has been absolutely atrocious if you're not a raidgay.
thats what i hate the most about this
>worst state its ever been for long term players
>somehow still growing and making shittons of money of modbeast creatures
>they will absolutely see the higher engagement for relics because they are so fricking trivial to make and use that system going forward
state its ever been for long term players
I'm a long time player (2.0 beta). Endwalker is my favorite expansion content wise. Heavensward was the worst content wise.
The patches have felt like the gap between 3.0 and 3.2 except for the entire run instead of turning around like the Heavensward patches did.
Why the frick does Swiftcast remove itself from my bar every time I swap BLU loadouts? No other role action does this.
Honestly hoping someone spergs out at Yoship during fanfest about how bad these patches have been tbh
The XIV fanbase is extremely limped wrist, especially the Western community. The game being dumbed down, every grind removed, and turned into another Second Life is exactly what they wanted.
anyone notice these "game is so fricking" post always comes out when everyone is playing the new content. kinda sus.
>Every fricking healer meld DH in their gear
>SE still fricking refuse to let healers put DH on their relic
>Our on only choice are to max out Crit and Det and put 73 points in either pie or sps
It's so tiring
It's so fricking tiring to be a healer in this game
same mental moronation for tank weapons. They absolutely will not let us put DH on them.
Direct hit will be a dps only stat anyways
Meld tenacity you toxic balance trannies, do your job, the content is easy in i660 already and you want to disrespect it even further for your sick dick-measuring content.
Reminder that the only reason why the relic is in this state it's because you fricks couldn't stop complaining about Bozja being shit.
Bozja itself is pretty fricking good and an upgrade of eureka but it LOOKS like shit which is what turned a lot of people off, no matter how petty it might sound.
Yeah, Bozja doesn't look great and I am a huge raidgay in this game. A huge one and I still enjoyed the grind through Bozja. But people complained about it and on top of that screeched about no Hildibrand. So this was the most logical choices for them, putting the relic behind Hildibrand and make it moronic so they can stop the complaining all around, but instead people are hating it now because somehow it's too lazy. Watch 7.0 to return to have something like Bozja and then people will screech about it once again. Just you wait.
not an upgrade imo, they both do some things better. CEs and bozja raids are great but the progression and fate system compared to eureka's nms and progression kinda suck
plus yeah bombed out middle eastern shithole isn't that great on the eyes
Just unlocked it the other day for the reistance relic but wasn't really sure what to do and kept getting my ass handed to me by mobs. Does eureka explain the basics of these kind of zones better or am I just moronic?
Not really. In eureka the primary way to level is to grind enemies and occasionally do fates (notorious monsters) that pop wjile in Bozja it’s reverse but doing fates is the basis of both of them.
eureka is just easier to progress through by yourself since there's a pretty strong echo in there
In Bozja you have to pay attention to the enemy rank rather than their level.
bozja IS dogshit. kys. matsuno is a washed up hack.
cause it's like playing in an alleyway. the "open" world is tiny compared to world of warcraft. zones are so thin
I don't if it is a samegayging arguing with himself or trying to rush the thread to 500 replies so it will no longer get bumps. Some people really are desperate for (you)
good morning sirs
its a bunch of rightfully disgruntled people shitting on the moron who is either
A). So moronic he's actually defending the game
B). Desperate for attention so he's saying something intentionally moronic to stoke ire
C). Mentally ill
Take your pick. They all end with anons eventual an hero anyway.
>its a bunch of rightfully disgruntled people
its a game, bro lol.
A game with a monthly sub that threatens to remove your house if you stop playing it.
A game where you've ideally, built a social circle since that's what mmos are for.
A game where you maybe have an fc, that has probably fricking died from the lack of shit to do.
You don't get to belittle people for being unhappy with a product that requires monthly payments to use.
You've transcended bootlicking, you're chowing down on the entire fricking insole.

Many such cases. Sad!
>got so mad that he had to reply to the post
my sides.
Yes I get mad when morons annoy me that is a standard and common human emotion. Do you want a fricking cookie or something you inbred feculent dishwater slurper?
You are making me laugh. Getting all mad over this. You are pathetic.
>Do you want a fricking cookie or something you inbred feculent dishwater slurper?
oh nonononononno what shall I ever do???
There is nothing more pathetic than a wojakposter. Even an aborted fetus has more dignity than you.
>noooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you aren't allowed to care about a video game thats pathetic!!!111111!!!!
have a nice day.
>what shall I ever do
See above.
god damn. you guys are so fricking cringe. hahahaha.
I'm not going to repeat myself a third time.
you seems desperate for my approval which is why you keep replying and coming back to me.
>NOO JUST CONSOOOM STOP COMPLAINING
>you can NOT show dissatisfaction against a product you pay for
Another reason why people hate the Official Forums community
the official forums complain the most, what are you talking about

Nanamo is a 10/10 waifu and they need to let us directly flirt with her. Hell she's already crushing on WoL as is
shes one of the most forced "friend" of the wol ever. they just add her because the girls thinks shes cute at square.
>Trusts WoL because Raubahn trusts him
>Feels guilty over getting WoL involved in the Monetarist's bullshit
>Has a hero crush on WoL
>100% has WoL's back as a result of events
Right, forced.
>FFXVI was what XIV could have been with a proper budget/manpower
>still has all of the lazy tricks XIV has with hiding animations, doing things off screen, and corridors everywhere
>also further shows how shittily XIV did Primals
I barely log into XIV any more. Once I stopped capping tomestones in ShadowBlack persond and focusing on other games it came harder and harder to come back to XIV.
>FFXVI was what XIV could have been with a proper budget/manpower
How so? Do you just mean graphics or do you think it would play the same cause I just don't think that would ever happen friend. I think the only thing 16 has that was in fact planned for the MMO and was scrapped was the primal thing. Originally they wanted FC's to be able to summon their deities against each other.
Reminder that Yoshi P ignored the game for over a year to focus on XVI and we ended up getting the least amount of content in an xpac since HW but Reddit morons will still screech how good the past two years have been and we're still another year out until 7.0.
How to save XIV? Remake it as a singleplayer game.
MMOs suck.
>remake it as a singleplayer game
that's what they've put 80% of dev time into for the past 4 years. They're even doing it to fricking trials now. I'm sure raids will be up on the platter next. By the end of 7.0 all non harder difficulty content will be made soloable with trusts so they can eventually wind it down.
Isn't Hydaelyn the only trial they did it so far?
Yes, it was an obvious testing ground for implementing it into 8 man content.
Not him but the only one so far, all of their EW dev time has been put into remaking old earlier MSQ content to be single player and thats the route they want to go since the new players replacing the existing old players love it. They're going to continue doing more in 7.0.
I was pretty happy about that because when I got to that my wifi was shitting it's self too much to play with other people
It's made for trannies, people that can't RP the gender they were born with trying to roleplay as something else fricking sucks.
>Getting the fricking turtle liver was a longer grind than upgrading the relic
kek
BLOW THAT BIG TROMBONE
sis..
Stop playing bad video games.
doomie vs cultist who will win?
ngl doomie i think cultist is more autistic than you are, he might get the last word before the thread dies
>doomer
Wanting the game to be good doesn't make you a doomer.
That being said, the longer these threads go on, and the more of these awful insufferable morons who defend the state of the game currently show up, the more I'm experiencing a wish for the game to burn to the ground. It's fricking infuriating. People like this insufferable moron
are a fricking pox. A god damn blight and I wish them nothing but the height of misfortune.
keep coming back b***h. I will keep playing the game and enjoying it.
I'm not resubbing. Unless they prove they're correcting course with the next expansion but I very much fricking doubt that is going to happen.
Post your WOL ballin'
Best girl
>20 (twenty) spells
>Not allowed into trials now
The absolute state of BLU
>Not allowed into trials now
What?
BLU can't beat Seat of Sacrifice or Memoria Misera.
They didn't look to add any way to work around it so that means it'll be the same for any trial in the future requiring heavy mit or LB.
Why not memoria? Anyone could go into the cutscene block thing iirc? Did they just think BLU couldn't ever get the MIT for it?
Had a kid
anyone on EU wanna help each other speedlevel BLU?
You can do it alone, just use ice + ultravibration and pull 5-6 mobs at a time. Use tank stance and mighty guard too. Then get into unsync sastasha and back out to reset the ultravibration timer. Repeat 4-5 times per level. Better if you use an exp roll from GC or FC buff
stop trying to stamp out the fleeting remaining embers of actual socialization and cooperation that remain in this game for the love of god.
There's plenty of that in Frontlines.
>entire gamemode that consists of 1 moron spamming macros to wrangle a wave of morons is socialization
No, moron.
You can use chat.
i tried that, the lvl 80 mobs in labyrinthos freeze but resist ultravibration which is weird
>Only people still eating the boots are the pedos
Remind me of why Tera died
