Was tired and burned out from many years of FPS games.
The JRPG I'd been waiting for finally came out and I was done with it, kinda lost in a void, haven't enjoyed an FF since Ivalice.
Was considering going to WoW but I was trying to get away from Blizzard, wasn't overly enjoying myself on other FPS games since I'd play them in stints. Registered for a free trial for FFXIV last year when I was researching and didn't do anything with it.
January hit and I was burned out hard.
Spent a week or so reading about MMO's a bit, my choices were going to be guild wars 2, wow or ffxiv and again, wow was an issue so I went with XIV but I couldn't buy the game. Eventually figured out I had a free trial and got started.
Been enjoying myself chipping away over the months, at the end of 4.0, finally reached the return to ivalice raids, just finished Eureka about to go into Baldesion Arsenal then Stormblood and I've gained an appreciation for hunts and might start FFXI down the line.
I have a lot of complaints about gameplay systems, config etc but it's not the worst thing in the world.
Does anyone else think people vastly overrate how hard it is to play black mage? It has a crazy amount of instacasts and some of the best movement tools in the game. If you keep swiftcast and a triplecast charge in your pocket at all times even something completely surprising you will just make it so you have to clip a bit to hit swift or triple. Use sharpcast for fire instead of thunder if you want to really have a lot of wiggle room. Worst case scenario is that you say "frick it" and hit transpose so you can cope out and spam umbral soul for a couple GCDs, and that's really not the end of the world.
I think when people say hard, they mean hard to play optimally. You can squeak by in most content while constantly dropping your spaghetti, but keeping peak efficiency requires a good hit more effort and skill
>BLM is the hardest to optimize and play at the highest level.
Nah that'd be healers.
Mostly because you have to know the fights and keep up with other people being moronic.
you need to know every second of the fight by heart to optimize your casts and cooldowns, and you need to have group members who also know how the fight works and are willing to play around you i.e. don't bait mechanics in your general direction. it is the ultimate selfish job
...or you could just play another job and use 1/10th of your brain cells to do just as much damage while also adding group support
>...or you could just play another job and use 1/10th of your brain cells to do just as much damage while also adding group support
That's only if you swap to melee, the other casters do awful damage.
Unless you mean "as much damage as the dude who's using Umbral Soul in combat", then yeah.
God party finder is somehow even worse this patch. Just had a PLD use zero cooldowns, randomly hit hallow ground when pulling in P5S and only use the royal authority with no spell attacks.
i can't get into mmos anymore. i like single player games now. it is very nice to not be part of some ratrace. i enjoy sniffing flowers and waiting for my body to hurry up and die

i am very lonely. should i start playing ffxiv to make some friends and have a sense of purpose/familiarity with my life? i can't make friends with my coworkers because i cant mesh with them
Probably not, it's pretty hard to actually make friends in XIV since it's so solo friendly, especially if you're someone who's not good at making friends.
to add onto what this anon said [...]
nearly everyone on the game these days already have their cliques, even smaller more tight knit fcs have their cliques, its pretty fricking bad. You'll hardly see anyone just being social talking to randoms in say chat and this makes it really hard to actually make friends cause you have to insert yourself into an already established group of friends which can be really uncomfortable and sometimes awkward. It also feels like the community has plummeted, the last notable group of friends ive had on the game was during stormblood but we ended up all going our separate ways and there hasnt been anything thats come close.

FFXIV is the least social game out of the bunch if you want to actively play with people. I'd also discourage you from joining any cesspool of subhumanity you might find there if someone is even playing.
This is unironically one of the biggest achievements anyone in this thread will see relating to xiv (ultimates are so far below they're not even on the list) and they don't even realize it

Time delayed spells, so basically what Gaia does. Also has some number manipulation stuff where the last digit of your MP influences your spells, but that's obviously never leaving its original game.
>Time delayed spells
So Time mage? Not happening. If it didn't happen with AST because "muh troon sweaty rotation" it wont ever happen. Also the game is not built to have any rpg element attach to it.
Delayed abilities already exist in the form of Wildfire.
And on a pratical level, a time delayed spell is not that different from a DoT spell, especially if you get an early detonate ability (with a damage penalty).

do you not remember how pissed off non-BLM people got when they got Arrows from old Astrologian? it sped up their rotation so that everything didn't align. It doesn't work in FF14.
Even if you make it targeted, it artificially forces party comps again, where someone like Black Mage really likes having haste and someone like DRG doesn't. They've been moving away from that ever since they made guaranteed crits/DHits benefit from party buffs.

Party haste is based, unfortunately ffxiv players are too moronic to enjoy such finer delicacies. They've devolved from aggro building, strength melding, TP managing, slashing debuffing intellectuals into 2 minute chimpanzees. God forbid you give a modern ffxiv player any downtime, for his rotation will drift

So in order to please anti-drift monkeys, The spell would HAVE to act exactly like bloodlust/heroism does, where haste affects the cooldown timer of all spells for the duration of the buff, and would have to be party-wide to prevent 2min CD windows drifting.
The XIV devs really worked themselves into a creative corner with design centered around synchronized buffs, jesus frickin' christ.

This is what your little japaBlack person brain doesn't get sunshine. A TIME-mage, would be doing more than delayed actions. A fricking time-mage could extend buffs, reduce debuffs, making something stronger but last less time. In fact, a fricking healer that 'heals' by speeding you up would be fricking lit as frick. But I don't trust Square Enix or YoBlack person-P to design anything.
AST used to have time shit with Celestial Opposition's original effect and Time Dilation increasing the duration of any buffs you applied on the target.
I originally did because I loved FF11.
Then after about a week of the shitty daily caps on guildleves I stopped
I tried ARR, but it was completely unrecognizable compared to ff11, so I went back and played ff11 through seekers (despite the awful shitheap it became after they deliberately gutted the game with abyssea to try and force people on to ff14)
After that I pretty much just stopped playing ff stuff altogether, now that I think about it. I tried ff15, just because 10 years, but man, what a disappointment.
I mean I got up to but didn't complete coil cause I didn't feel like getting into a linkshell/free company/whatever by filling out a literal jop application with a resume, so yeah I suppose so.
Tried going back recently but I'm ineligible to do the free trial because I paid a membership at one point, so eh, they don't want me to give it another try, I won't bother.
I dunno why but at the moment I just really enjoy hopping on to do a couple roulettes for levelling, progress the tribes I haven't done and check in on my island

Imagine being a suncat

>hear that people get random tells from strangers, especially when they play cat girls >been playing as a cat girl for years now >zero tells
I mean I'm not interested in ERP and shit but now I feel insulted wtf
If you believed the shit posted on her, their is erp, trannies, parsegayging, and automatic bans for telling folks to play right. In my 8 years of playing I have never seen any of this on primal so I’m sure the folks who post about it here go actively looking for it.
>"random tells"
Meaning they've left their character standing around in Limsa, not zooming around doing quests and hiding in an inn room.
The other thing is, the average coomer-erper has absolutely horrid taste, so unless you're wearing pink bikinis, they won't notice you.
Just wear a loose glam and go idle at the Limsa aetherite or the Ul'dah inn during peak hours if you really want more random tells. Though it also depends on your server. Some servers have a reputation for (E)RP so you'll find more coomers there.
tf, i dont believe you, i play ugly ass male char and even made my char as ugly as i possibly could just to avoid creeps like that and i still end up with a bunch of creeps sending me tells, i dread to imagine what its like for people who play hot female chars.
I play a male hyur and I get tells entirely because my name is "Bloodborne Sequel". It is almost always people saying something along the lines of "one day" or "soon".
I played it because I foolishly believed all the weenie boys that praised it as the greatest game ever, and I regret how much time I spent waiting for it to "get good". Genuinely one of the worst games I've ever played, I have to assume that the only standard for quality people playing it have is that there's a lot of it and they can coom to their bunny girl characters. >inb4 seething about wow
I don't know how the ffxiv people have this chip on their shoulders about wow, they're practically the same game.
See my difficulty here is with an Au Ra I can make something cute that I can take seriously, but while I can't take a Lala seriously they're even cuter.

I'd heard the stories, but this is the first time I've encountered such an egoBlack person.
I don't know why they haven't taken the game offline and make the online portion instanced and opt in. It's not like the servers do literally anything at all. No single part of the game stops it from working as a game like Monster Hunter. I challenge anyone to tell me of a single part of FFXIV that requires the always online connection.

I mean Matsuno (FF12/FFT) worked on large chunks of the game and the setting is heavy on the politics/philosophy angle that Matsuno was known for.
Plus Ivalice is in the game. Not "the" Ivalice but rather 14's version of it.
Alright I'm sold.

I want to impregnate a Lalafell
I wish jerma would become a FFXIV streamer
>catboy jerma memes ensue
>him laughing at hildy questline
>shenanigans the viewers put on for me
>FC stream events
We need a good face of XIV
Because I like it, it's just a bonus that it makes other MMO players seethe
>XIV gets posted in MMO thread
>All the other posters start b***hing about how it killed their games
Music to my ears
It’s strange because FFXIV has been doing it’s own thing for like 7 years?
My roommate plays this and I never see him anymore. Which is a good thing so I like this game.
>can't come up with a name
>New player bonus worlds are full by the time I'm willing to settle on a trash name just to play

Always funny to think sun male cats are all meant to be Tia
A nunh wouldn't be out adventuring would they
Well obviously, if you're a nunh you're not out there adventuring since you're too busy being a breeder.
Imagine being a suncat
literally a race of virgins
imagine being raised in a village fall in love with a girl then have your dream of spending your life with he is shattered once the nunh tells you to frick off and takes her to frick nonstop in his breeding chambers
your only saving grace is changing race and roll a bunny boy
Most catboys are pretty gay though.
Sounds like a skill issue, I have 5 names ready to go when playing mmos and 99% of the time they aren’t used.
Pick something and then buy a name change once you figure out something you like.
Just play elezen and use some random baguette name
>hear that people get random tells from strangers, especially when they play cat girls
>been playing as a cat girl for years now
>zero tells
I mean I'm not interested in ERP and shit but now I feel insulted wtf
I'm sorry you have an ugly character.
Might depend on your DC/world, ive only gotten two random tells, and both were to compliment my glamours
Obviously, you're cat is an ugmo.
People here have a bizarre idea of how prevalent ERP is and greatly exaggerate this kind of shit
If you believed the shit posted on her, their is erp, trannies, parsegayging, and automatic bans for telling folks to play right. In my 8 years of playing I have never seen any of this on primal so I’m sure the folks who post about it here go actively looking for it.
>primal
hyperion here. the only thing I've seen is the IQ drop per patch but you're generally right.
Sorry to tell you this bro but your cat is ugly/basic
>"random tells"
Meaning they've left their character standing around in Limsa, not zooming around doing quests and hiding in an inn room.
The other thing is, the average coomer-erper has absolutely horrid taste, so unless you're wearing pink bikinis, they won't notice you.
You want tells? It's easy, wear
>2B's Leggings
>Hempen Camis or Dalmascan Draped Top
Just wear a loose glam and go idle at the Limsa aetherite or the Ul'dah inn during peak hours if you really want more random tells. Though it also depends on your server. Some servers have a reputation for (E)RP so you'll find more coomers there.
I get called mommy all the time for some reason. Maybe you just need to reassess your glamour and fantasia.
same
its a femroe thing i think
tf, i dont believe you, i play ugly ass male char and even made my char as ugly as i possibly could just to avoid creeps like that and i still end up with a bunch of creeps sending me tells, i dread to imagine what its like for people who play hot female chars.
This is bait. I play as m!Viera and get zero tells from gays lol. Not a single one.
I played a highlander and got stalked by lalafells on occasion.
I play a male hyur and I get tells entirely because my name is "Bloodborne Sequel". It is almost always people saying something along the lines of "one day" or "soon".
lmao how ugly is your character? my femezen got gobbed on all the time
Show me. I like FemElezen.
I thought people hated the elezen proportions. Do you just AFK in Limsa?
>Got tells all the time as fem au'ra
>Swapped to fem lala a few years ago
>Still get tells
Imagine sucking at character creation
same here bro, meanwhile my lala friend gets shit ton of tells like wtf
I'm 99% you have to be standing on limsa for a long while and some days to be target as "current" to get a tell.
My femlala still didn't get anything
I blame it on the fact that I am free trial and can't buy a namechange so I have a guy's name on my tan tomboy
I played it because I foolishly believed all the weenie boys that praised it as the greatest game ever, and I regret how much time I spent waiting for it to "get good". Genuinely one of the worst games I've ever played, I have to assume that the only standard for quality people playing it have is that there's a lot of it and they can coom to their bunny girl characters.
>inb4 seething about wow
I don't know how the ffxiv people have this chip on their shoulders about wow, they're practically the same game.
The never ending search for the perfect glam.

for them thicc fem roe mommies and uuuh pvp when i'm bored, thats about it
Because I enjoy the story and content but most importantly: my friends play it.
male valeria or male lala? one looks kinda cool because it reminds me of amano's creations and another is a funny midget tank
hrothgar
when are femhroths coming?
7.0 probably
The funny midget tank. I can never get enough of that.
People who play "le funny midget tank" are universally insufferable memespouters, so you have to ask yourself if you fit in with that.
Lala.
Viera is a unfinished race that can't even wear hats.
I’m trying to make a meme but does anyone have the image of the DRG with a lance through his chest giving a thumbs up?
UNLEASH DILATIMA
We've talked about this before, Lahabrea. Or should I say Hephaistos?
I was gonna play the free trial but I can't decide whether to make an au ra or a lalafel.
be a lizzer
See my difficulty here is with an Au Ra I can make something cute that I can take seriously, but while I can't take a Lala seriously they're even cuter.
>Why do you play FFXIV?
Huh I don't know anymore. Familiarity I guess, I've been playing for like almost a decade now.
Lalafell!
>that new short story about Hermes
Why did the Ancients not have rules about mental illness? Dude was throwing red flags all over the place.
>accidentally sets off his date rape machine, wiping the memory of Kitisis workers and visitors
>files an official report about it
>no one bats an eye
Did the Ancients really?
I played it because I liked the story, but the Endgame is piss-boring so I just play WoW Classic instead.
We all play WoW: Wrath of the Lich King Classic now
because im still coping that theyre not planning on replacing it like they did with FFXI
When will they let us take Trusts into Deep Dungeons/Eureka/Bozja?
>Eureka/Bozja
That would be pretty weird
>MSQ roulette, castrum
>tank starts single pulling straight away
>I pull some mobs towards them
>they turn off stance and let me die
I'd heard the stories, but this is the first time I've encountered such an egoBlack person.
I don't know why they haven't taken the game offline and make the online portion instanced and opt in. It's not like the servers do literally anything at all. No single part of the game stops it from working as a game like Monster Hunter. I challenge anyone to tell me of a single part of FFXIV that requires the always online connection.
The only person who let you die was the incompetent healer
>brat twitter meme
>pedophile groomer tendencies
>plays Final Fantasy MMO
checks out completely
the reason i stopped playing 11 was because the fricking degenerates, these disgusting sexual predators that live on these fricking games
Haven't even finished EW and I bought it on release.
