Disregarded.
"cool, twinblades"
As long as there's a single cutlass- theme weapon glam I'm good. I already got pistol from MCH and pistol sword from GNB.
isnt that just mch?
isn't Viper just Rogue? it's obvious they ran out of ideas, so why not rehash more jobs?
I feel like viper is more about high level dual wielding from one and 2 where your characters would swing the weapons 8 times each.
apart from pointing out daggers and shortswords are different. both corsair and mch just use a gun
Ninja uses shortswords and daggers
I know but technically they are all daggers just bigger daggers
corsair could have been gun plus sword or dual gun
My thought was reverse RDM where the gun could be used during a combo from range but then it would be dps pld
Gay and boring
yeah AC black flag is way cooler
Yes, unironically. Have you played it?
Corsair would use dice and cards as sub weapons
mch should play like edgar from 6. and it does. other gun classes should avoid multi-tools.
I don't know how good a pirate job would have worked out, but it almost certainly would have been better than what we got. I'm mean shit most classes damn near play the same thanks to their egregious homogenizing, the least they can do is make the visual effects a bit more interesting than "guy with two swords". They've really stopped giving a frick.
I just hate how people think they already know how bland the job is going to be off the few GCDs they showed off. They were clearly showing off the idea of swapping between dual blades and twinblade there, but that doesn't mean they're not going to have anything but standard slashing animations. They will have crazy snake related skills, some monster hunter style dual blade acrobatics, and more. Maybe crazy Dyne finishers as well, which were super varied in FF9.
Basically I hate doomposters. Frick you.
>I just hate how people think they already know how bland the job
>but it's going to be cool because *literally a bunch of shit I've just made up*
The difference is that I have an imagination and can extrapolate from the details they've given, while the doomposters can't imagine anything that isn't presented in front of them with giant red circles and arrows.
If you've still got hope and optimism hey more power to you. But I'm a jaded boomer just waiting for them to make drk and AST fun to play again. Pro tip: they won't.
Why the frick wouldn't they put their best foot forward with the reveal? That's Marketing 101.
The sad fact is this is probably all the job is. Two swords.
Counterpoint: Square Enix.
>Why the frick wouldn't they put their best foot forward with the reveal?
Probably the same reason they save the job action trailer for like a month before launch, all the animations aren't finalized.
>They will have crazy snake related skills
God I hope not
I fricking hate snakes
You're right, the job called Viper whose key art has a big snake behind them probably won't have anything snake related. After all, Bard already has snake bite related skills, so it's be redundant.
>Maybe crazy Dyne finishers as well, which were super varied in FF9.
>Zidanehomos still think this job is about their boyfriend
I don't know why you guys have to be so tribal about everything. Why can't we just make connections to past games and theorize based on that? It doesn't have to be about winning or losing the prediction game. Just theorize cool shit.
Where does that faith in the job design team come from exactly anon?
He's a shadowbaby. He doesn't know how bad things have gotten.
I've been playing since the end of ARR and was just complaining about the removal of Monk's Tornado Kick rotation in the other thread. I want Viper to have GCD speed manipulation like old Riddle of Fire, since the slide specifically mentioned difference of speed between dual blades and twinblade.
Being a veteran or new to the game doesn't mean I can't huff copium and hope for things to get better. They HAVE to hear about people being mad about removal of complexity and removal of DoTs and maybe think that a new job that can house those mechanics isn't the worst idea, right?
they could've called viper corsair and literally nobody would've given a shit either way
If they called it corsair we would have at least gotten some sweet gun and cannon skills. Now we just get slash and twinblade slash.
Play machinist.
Nobody likes machinist. Ya I said it. Those "upgraded" shooting skills feel like shit compared to the classic solid "plinking" feel the old skill had.
I'm sure you miss the cast time and turret pet too.
>Cast time
Not a fan, but it did work better for MCH than the fricking abomination that they turned BRD into
I'd be ok if they adapted their PVP moving cast time gimmick into PVE
>Turret pet
Liked it more than the Queen, I wish they would at least bring the vuln application back to give it some raid utility that's not locked to ninja
I liked 3.0 MCH, the new random toolbox shit they turned it into sucks
Get owned CORbaby. You're worse than every single other job Fandom prior some how.
I think people will be surprised very positively when the graphic updates actually hit. They're obviously sandbagging it on purpose. Look the dev panel to see what's actually happening. It's very impressive.
Will my Lalafell become more adorable? This is all that matters.
your jawline shadow is a bit better
Yes, unironically.
Hated lalas since I started playing, but that updated model of that lala with the long hair they showed looks genuinely cute to me.
graphics upgrade is underwhelming.
new expansion is underwhelming.
you are unironically moronic if you resub to this game after flopwalker.
If 3.0-3.1 didn't kill this game nothing ever will
I know but... I'm too weak...
The XI raid is calling to me...
fanfest was trash but from the interviews its looking pretty good
do the interviews say anything of note
they said that the direction of the expansion is going to be the opposite of Endwalker. where 6.x was focused on solofying the game 7.x will be focused on making content everyone can do together. this has me pretty hyped.
double-edged sword, content that everyone can do can still mean that the skill requirement for new content is
>awake (optional)
and that's not what I want when the new job buttons are just going to be an obligatory extra button that doesn't do anything unique aside from inappropriately jamming itself into a rotation that already feels like shit as of EW
I don't know, Eureka and Bozja was fun for me.
zeromus ex is easier than some bozja fights
Yeah but I don't see what that has to do with anything
Seat of Sacrifice ex was easier than some bozja fights, what's your point?

What a moronic homosexual, the frick was he thinking? That's alongside
>Bosses are weak to damage.
Its one thing to be reductive, but the fact that he says it so confidently condescending
Stand and let thing resolve was bad but the thing that got me was "the game is now easier than ever" which an insane statement to put out in the expansion that had Abyssos, DSR and TOP
He quit before then, didn't he?
he quit in SB
Abyssos was piss easy besides a third of jobs being undertuned for P8S because CBU3 has been cutting corners hard. TOP is just a bad fight and had multiple bugs (heh) the first couple months. DSR is good because it was basically finished since SHB.
TOP was better than DSR though. DSR just ends at P6 for DPS then everything else is support prog.
>TOP was better than DSR though.
TOP last phase is the best out of the ultimates, but no. TOP P2/3/5 are fricking atrociously bad.
I admit that he has terrible raid brain but his video made some decent points
nah I think it is just bad, everything he says is false to an extent and he is filled with anger for features he was not around for. just an angry zoomer who hates everyone.

it'll cull PS4 players and people running the game on potatoes so I can't complain too much.

Friends that played since 2.0 and 1.0 unironically hate the game but cannot let since you know all the sunk cost. It would be like breaking up with a long time gf
I'll never understand why this game has so many people who do nothing but rage and shriek and whine about it.

You're falling under the trap of the vocal minority. The vast majority of "second life" players out there are super excited about the visual upgrades.
Sure, until something inevitably triggers their autism and they sperg out like the subhumans they are

When did I say anything about you being the source of all negative posts? Talk to me, not your strawman.
keep going honestly, he has to phonepost if he's busy screeching about not samegayging
You accused me of spending years shitting on this game and calling it dead when I have at no point done this, since it would be nonsense to call the game dead during its most popular expansion.
I like led limbal rings as an idea, but in reality limbal rings being dark signifies youth, and looks more natural.
It's okay, modders will fix it.

That "graphics upgrade" was pretty lackluster.
They really should've downplayed what the upgrade was going to be, and not make a big deal about it happening.
>announced ff11 alliance raid
>still hasn't convinced sqenix to combine the subs for 11 and 14
Genuine question about 11. How is it to play through with a friend?
I know people talk about how you can go through and experience it solo nowadays, but if I wanted to go through the game with a friend or two, is it actually a decent experience? Or is it like XIV where we are basically just clicking through our own separate MSQ bubbles and meeting up for instanced content every now and again?
You can go anywhere with your friend and not be locked out, just make sure you're on the same main scenario.
i'm doing that on a private server, it's very fun, not sure if retail is more convenient now but we've had tough battles and we often need to just sit and rest somewhere while questing
>Cultists spent months hyping up the "graphics update", pretending it was gonna be a YUGE upgrade.
>It turns out to be literally nothing but increasing a few 256px textures to 512px and messing around with some specularity.
Kek. Imagine thinking CBU3 is capable of doing anything but the bare minimum.
My big issue with this is
>they are removing old quests to shorten the msq
>they are making old dungeons solo queues
>they are focusing on improving geaphics for the expansion
and when they finish they will not return to the same amount of content releases as before they started working on this other stuff.
It's actually good that relics are just a throwaway uncapped tome weapon you fricking bigot. Think about all of those casual players who would be otherwise deprived of a cosmetic weapon with bad stats.
Source?
my source is I'm a pessimist who wants low expectations to be proven wrong rather than an optimist who allows high expectations to constantly fall short.
>they are removing old quests to shorten the msq
Already happened. ARR was just such a slog to get through even back when it was released. We only got through it because there wasn't even endgame for a while.
>they are making old dungeons solo queues
If you mean trusts or Duty support, that has been finished and you can still run these dungeons with actual players.
my point is that stuff took work which is an excuse for shadowbringers and endwalker to be lacking in content, but once dawntrail comes out they won't have that excuse and content will drip at the same speed and volume if not slower and less.
>my point is that stuff took work which is an excuse for shadowbringers and endwalker to be lacking in content
Another reason was Covid. Hit japan hard and they are all still struggling to get back on track.
Just look how many delays there were for anime figures. Some took over a year after the planned release to come out.
I do know one of things they constantly mentioned was that updating the Trust/Duty Support for all the old content was taking up a lot of valuable resources that would normally be spent elsewhere. I kind of hope someone keeps them accountable and tells us what those resources got moved to during DT production so we can see that it isn't just lost like you're describing.
Graphics update rolling out in waves is their excuse even though it shouldn't take any of programmer's time.
Budget and time. The programmers are also doing work for other SE games.
Here's a hot take:
The changes they made to ARR just made it less coherent and less charming, its still the same slog you remember.
Except now you awkwardly go back and forth between the Waking Sands and some random settlement, do exactly one thing, never see it again and the world building suffers for it.
The thing that makes ARR a slog is how much you have to go between the waking sands and whatever destination you get sent to, and that's still largely the case.
The either needed to just put a damn aetheryte in Vesper Bay or just give you some unlimited use item that teleports you directly into it from anywhere.
Or just have the stupid conversations take place over a linkpearl/codec call rather than have you physically go across the world just to read three text bubbles
>we lost miner tataru due to the arr cull
>she just mentions it and never actually does it now
Reminder that they cut miner Y'shtola as well, plus the Scion shenanigans in the Sylphlands. They took everything from us even though all the WoWfugees have already quit. They massacred ARR for nothing.
They didn't cut miner Y'shtola, that part of the questline is still there.
You mean ARR was BIGGER?
Holy frick, I thought it was a super slog to get through, how many did they cut out?
They cut quite a bit from the MSQ but instead now you have to run the entire alliance raid quest line from ARR. It evens out in actual playtime pretty much.
The worst thing they could do is increase graphics enough that minimum specs raise too far and most of their player base can't play on their potato PCs anymore. Wouldn't be surprised if keeping a certain minimum specs is their biggest limiter on updating the game.
>NOOOOOO MY DARK SKINNED CHARACTER DOESN'T REFLECT LIGHT WELL, THIS NEW GRAPHICS UPDATE WILL BE A DISASTER!!!
I've noticed cat, Viera and Au Ra players are b***hing the most about these things.
>pick a skin color the same as night
>mad because you now blend into the night
Why are Black folk so dumb
The suncat eyes they previewed looked like shit.
My character is dark blue and has blue hair and wears blue and I have never once had a problem with dark lighting.
i made a black cat and named her after the cat i had as a child and it's okay that the lighting is so dark sometimes that only my character's eyes are visible because it reminds me of her
this is a good point to make actually, places like ultima thule look like shit. however i cannot see it getting any worse than it already is for dark skin characters. considering erenville is probably a main character now hopefully they will consider these things.
How is that a good point
What the frick do you want when you pick a character the color of tar?
You want a special spotlight following you around and shining on your face at all times? You don't want to be lost in the dark, stop being dark.
Queue for the Copied Factory right now and ill post my breasts

Hell yes, some challenge.
>Better not do alliance roulette in the first month
I don't ever
It's actually fun to run DPS meters when you're up against 7-10 people with the same job and gear level. Then you can actually stroke your ego seeing that you're picking up the new job faster than the other shitters.

Where are youuuuuu
Choose
Engine update
Or
Complete modder/cheater/addon death
>Complete modder/cheater/addon death
Easy choice
engine update
ez
Complete addon death.
It would be funny seeing raiding completely implode because it's designed entirely around 100% uptime DPS checks and therefore unplayable if parsers are completely non-existent.
It might force them to actually redesign raids to be fun and reactive against rather than autistic striking dummies for parsegays.
Creator format obviously worked so we are going with it for eternity. What would you consider a reactive mechanic?
Creator at least had HP-based phase pushes and some degree of mechanical RNG way beyond what Savage raids today do. Every raid today is fixed unchanging timeline with 100% uptime, which means the optimal way to play is the exact same sequence of buttons every time.
HP pushed are dead and buried because lol skip soar. And you saw what happened when they added RNG timelines recently. People b***hed about it the entire tier
They fricked up and designed a single extreme primal (literal midcore content) wrong by making a tricky mechanic too easy to skip with moderately high DPS and, as is typical of CBU3, they reacted to this minor problem by just excising an entire element of the game completely.
Literally all they needed to do was design their fights better so that trickier mechanics wouldn't be possible to skip within the same patch a fight comes out, but alas, easier to just rip out an entire design element.
>Soar
>tricky mechanic
Kek wasn't it literally just spreading to the edges of the arena while some dashes went out?
Yeah but apparently party finder found it too hecking difficult so everyone became obsessed with trying to skip it. This was in the same expansion with the much harder Thordan and Sephirot Ex fights, so I truly don't understand why Soar caused so much psychosis among the playerbase.
If the update kills cheats, i am willing to say goodbye to mods.
>Complete modder/cheater/addon death
This one.
A real engine update would inevitably kill off all the current mods, two birds with one stone
Complete modder/cheater/addon death.
>Complete modder/cheater/addon death
This would kill the game
I can't play Machinist without XIVAlexander so I'm going with the engine update.
complete modder/cheater/addon death
this way some of those features will have more pressure to be added to the base game. 3rd party addons relieve that pressure so nothing gets done
Holy frick that lala is horrible
>Complete modder/cheater/addon death
after what that one hacker revealed the past few days I will hit that button so hard even if it means taking me out too. These frauds don't deserve to live.
what happened? tldr?
<https://twitter.com/EliBlue1337/status/1715909940265509224>
but tl;dr is in addition to splatoon addons which reveals aoes that normally shouldn't be there you also have addons that play your job for you meaning all you have to do is move around and the rest of the game plays itself.
Sounds like doing msq
His 4th reason is stupid, people do play other classes besides one.
Rotation bots have been a thing forever and they won't give someone a high rank.
As funny as drama is, parsing this tier is very boring. Just get 3 people willing to sleep on the wheel, do mechanics and push their buttons during burst windows.

>He is just a salty cheater having a mentldown because he got banned
Get fricked homosexual.
>Rotation bots aren't real because... because the guy posting on twitter about them is disreputable aswell!!!!
moron. People on Ganker have been talking about rotation bot shit since the beginning of the expansion, probably earlier but early Endwalker was when I first heard of it.
The completely linear timeline combat design and total lack of RNG elements in rotations was inevitably going to end with this kind of bot becoming viable, since they handle the entire (deterministic) rotation but the player still has to handle movement for mechanics.
this game would SIGNIFICANTLY improve if it just filtered out all of the marehomosexuals, holy frick man.
I don't mod XIV, neither do I use addons. Cheaters are scum and I wish I could remove every goddamn botter myself.
However I'd still choose ngine update. The solution to remove mods and cheats could affect legit players, be it by accident, false positives or bad programming of anti-cheat.
only mod I would actually be sad to lose is player chat bubbles. everything else I use is either totally stupid shit or minor QoL like cross-server marketboard prices on hover over items.
>tumblr_
Engine update would be great but I think I'll choose the option that removes cheating from PvP and all the raid addons.
>Complete modder/cheater/addon death
The latter. XIV will never look good enough for graph prostitutes.
Complete modder/cheater/addon death, and it's not even remotely close to a difficult choice.
The tears alone would be delicious, but knowing that it will be pure impotent rage that they can't even b***h about in any official channels would just be the cherry on top.
It's definitely a visual upgrade. Looking forward to it.

WAR
>dual handaxes
That's just as fricking boring
what weapon hasn't been used yet that wouldn't be boring and would actually be used on a battlefield.
Whip, would've fit the dawntrail Indiana jones vibes too.
Hm...
Didn't Quistis use a whip? She seems to be associated with poisons and debuffs these days, maybe green mages will use whips.
Quistis is a BLU.
You're right. It's been too long since I last played VIII.
Whip.
Spear and Shield
you're idea falls in line with the current method of creating jobs, and the dual axe idea. just combine two things we already have and make new animations
>and would actually be used on a battlefield.
Since when was this a fricking requirement
How about a tank class that uses a huge ass glaive/spear and is styled as a jap/chinese general of some sort. Like Honda or Guan Yu.
>warrior with a lancer subjob
I can dig it
I want a DND Clreic. Giant tower shield and frick off maces.
>How about a tank class that uses a huge ass glaive/spear and is styled as a jap/chinese general of some sort. Like Honda or Guan Yu.
How would they design these differently from what DRG already uses?
I really hate weapon ideas that are just:
>same weapon a job already has, just bigger or smaller or on a different role
The issue here is weapons can't have actual speed differences.
Nothing can have actual differences, it's all aesthetic.
I have a lot more fun playing Warriors Orochi than any job in XIV
anon...every job in the game uses boring ass weapons you fricking mong, maybe with the exception of sage and maybe astro, everything else is basic as frick.
Gunblades? Big ass two handers? Both of those being relegated to tanks instead of DPS?
Black mages use staves and staves are awesome. Well, rods, but you get what I mean.
>HS
>Heaven Sward
oops
war has berserk button
so it is berserker
q.e.d.
Yes it is you fricking mongoloid. Swings huge axe and gets FRICKIN PISSED to smash things real frickin hard, what else would a Berzerker class even do beyond that?
Nta but deal huge big d damage. Since that was the core rhing about zerker. Doing more damage at the cost of less defense or another negative shit
The core gimmick of berserker is that you don't get to control them.
True but you cannot do that in a game like this even more if it lacks any rpg elements
Berserker in FF meant you started battles with buffed damage but you become an auto attack bot with literally zero player input, leaning on series tradition isn't what you want for something like this.
Sounds perfect for a tank that traditionally has a more simplified moveset. Because we can't actually take control away from the player, maybe we just have them spam one move over and over again to simulate the powerful auto attacks. Maybe give it like a chainsaw effect or something just to make it feel raw and powerful.
maybe a cool glowing red eyes effect? maybe the story of the class can be acknowledging the powerful but out of control beast within and learning how to control it?
>maybe the story of the class can be acknowledging the powerful but out of control beast within and learning how to control it?
Nah, that's dumb. They should have a literal moron try to seduce a horse fricker instead.
tbh the 'warrior trainer' being anything less than a grug brained moron just wouldn't fit

Thank frick you're not jn charge of anything Jesus Christ. If you eat this experience jhdt play a healer.
No, you could totally do that. Have it be a big dps cooldown that makes your character go nuts for 15 seconds. You'd have to learn when to use it, like Ley Lines.

It's over...
So is this guy the same guy who made these cringy youtube videos with AI voice narration that failed getting any significant attention?
They were okay when he did focus n actual cheaters, but full schizo when he complained about visual mods. Modbeasts are awful, but at least I'm not seeing those in my game.

Aside from a few standouts the quality overall seems lower than the NA one, I'm assuming the tighter entry window had a hand in that,
Meant for
>have the thirteenth become a calamity.
>remake the entire game again on a non-proprietary engine
>release it as ffxiv 3
why is that so hard?
Just ad a second combo route for DRK it's all I ask
NO. Enjoy another copied WAR skill and ogcd you need to fit in a tiny window. Please Look forward to it.
I just want a big cool OGCD to do.
All I get is repeats of lame-ass FoS and the goddamn mannequin buddy
I want my confiteor/fell cleave too
What should I expect from these? I haven't finished HS yet.

MOOOOOODS
Words too big for your zoomer brain to understand.
They're good reference books. The first book has spoilers for HW but you can just read the table of contents and skip what you don't want to know about yet.
Book 2 is mostly stormblood but you can just flip through the dungeon/gear/zones and skip the SB specific stuff.

Do i bite the bullet?

>4 different playonline passwords open in notepad
>HDD starts spinning mysteriously
Yep, it's XI time again.
Viper is cooler than Corsair and all I want from Beastmaster is a Bestiary that lets us collect monsters and read lore about them.
that sounds pretty cool
The only real option for new jobs is to make every existing job into a arcanist type role split. create dps axe as berserker, make ninja a caster and thief a physical dps. etc.
Updated one looks great. Why are you trooning out over it?
>a bajillion years until ShB msq ultimate
>another bajillion years until EW msq ultimate
By then I won't be playing anymore probably. I wanted to hear Close in the distance by the primals on a fighy
>Still not a single hyuk
BORING. YOU'RE DONE PABLO. NO MORE (You)s.
Not gonna lie, I did like the LED limbal rings.
They can give a nice vibe
that looks eerie in a good way
I just wish new jobs wouldn't start in the three starting cities. You don't even unlock most until after finishing certain expansions, right?
People got really mad they had to reach Ishgard to become dark knights, so now all the new jobs are in the main cities.
I find it comical how they even managed to homogenize the story part of Jobs
I find it comical you're getting nostalgic over job questlines that all struggled with finding how to justify their own existence past the first level cap
I don't blame them getting mad since the new jobs started on a low level. Viper however is level 80. You'd think it would start in maybe Kugane or Reach now.
I thought people were mad they got to ishgard to become a dark knight then they had to start at lv 30 again.
Its worse now than it was back then even because DRK is one of those jobs fricked by level sync until fricking lv 70
the only ones you can't unlock in arr are machinist astrologian and dark knight, the limiting factor for every other job is leveling to max level in ARR content only.
It's all based on level now. Theoretically you could grind EXP up and unlock any job before even finishing ARR, minus the Ishgard jobs.
Remember what they promised us
Will never not remind me of Dragon's Dogma.
We need but sever the tail!
it looks like ddon with ffxiv ui slapped on top
who could forget the famous ff character Romeo Guildenstern
Vagrant Story is an honorary FF game
Just a reminder that Boco had sex.
>Viper is a technically demanding yet highly stylish melee job
I wonder just how "technically demanding" it's going to be
Probably just Continuation but on a DPS
>continuation
>pressing 2 buttons one after another
>'demanding'
??
Pressing two buttons in rapid succession js about as complex execution wise as this game gets.
Yoshida claimed that Reaper was technically demanding and complex too and then it turned out to be a slightly-modified melee version of Machinist with more satisfying animations. On the expansion where melees get free uptime anyway and thus don't feel that different from rangeds.
Don't believe any words coming out of Yoshida's mouth concerning how difficult or complex anything in this game will be.
It's going to be reaper 2.0, which is melee machinist, so it's going to be a melee machinist 2.0
w
I know about Viper but did they announce a 2nd job?
yes it's a caster
A caster and Krile will use it.
And I will use Krile.
they announced caster and limited job but haven't named them. tokyo fanfest for more news in january.
tank classes will actually be different this expansion right fellas? because right now every single tank plays exactly the same
I hope so. Still waiting for war or dark to get a chain/darkness suck in move that countless enemies and bosses have but we don't.
Salted earth in PVP should do what it does in PVE.
WAR doesnt need more toys.
lmao
Whats more likely is that GNB DRK and PLD get their own versions of Bloodwhetting and Shake it off.
>Shake it Off is literally the only bad button in WARs kit
>Yoshi immediately turns it into a full party TBN within a single patch
>Living Dead takes over half a decade to see a single change
>PLD just gets half it's shit deleted instead of even attempting to fix it
Hmm
>PLD just gets half it's shit deleted
1) this didn't happen
2) i am reasonably sure people moaning for paladin's awkward phys/mag splits back don't play paladin
PLD and GNB still have identity, at least over level 60. all the pre ShB tanks play the same below 60, and WAR and DRK might as well be the same class.
Bulwark got deleted (the new version is just a mini Rmapsrt)
Convalescence got deleted
Shield Swipe got deleted
Goring blade got completely gutted into a shitty one time burst button
Flash got deleted
I expect Circle of Scorn to be gone next
>I expect Circle of Scorn to be gone next
I don't believe you. How else are they going to make a basic upgrade with increased potency and pass it off as an entirely new ability?
I fricking hated all those, especially Flash
you think tanks are bad? take a look at healers, it's such a homogenized bullshit, theres nothing unique from any healer
There is one difference, the healers are classified as shield healers and regen healers
which actually translates to good healers and shit healers respectively.
It was very funny doing DSR and seeing my WHM mage switch to SGE mid-prog so we had a SCH/SGE comp and the fight got 10x easier for them
Preventing damage is always going to be superior to taking damage and playing catchup.
Its worse than that.
>DRK used to be the gapcloser tank, WAR is now has 3, debatabilty 4 gap closers to DRK's "enhanced umend"
>Squint hard enough at Enhanced Equilibirum and you'll see the text "Additional Effect: Aurora"
>WAR has more party healing and utility than the tank thats meant to be bringing holy magic
>Veil gets buffed, Yoshida decides Shake needs to be buffed before that to make it better anyway to maintain status quo
Job favortism for tanks is real.
Try healing off doom with just shield healers
Y'shtola belongs to Runar!
I wonder if the ShB characters will remain forgotten, or if thancred will ever reunite with his daughter-wife and her girlfriend
Yshtolas only for BHC
Somewhere along the line Tataru shifted from comic relief to hypercompetent mercantile overlord, when exactly did that happen
Heavensward and ARR where she was still the bean-counter and information broker for the Waking Sands
Somewhere in-between end of Heavensward to Stormblood when she got into ties with Hanhock
>is smug in your path
I want to lick that tummy.
>cute face that fits the wig
Very rare. There are other Alisaie cosplayers who look weird with the wig, but are actually really cute and pretty.
Why did EU have so many alisaie cosplayers? Is she popular over there or something?
Yes we love her and hate Zero.
huh, there wasn't a single Zero was there
Exactly, we hate her.
Maybe euros are based after all
There were two but they were pretty shit.
Endsinger girl was great, really cute too in person.
everyone loves alisae!
She's legal here.
She's English, she's legal what more do you need?
>She's English
So is everyone else in this game
You didn't know? We colonised FF14, British Empire 2.0
I want to lick that tummy
>the game gets shit on by so many people the ffxiv cultists developed a name for them
It's funny when you think about it
people b***h about "doomposters" in every game now
it's the new reddit meme phrase
There is nothing wrong with Doom, buddy.
Doomer/,doomposter is not a term unique to XIV at all you fricking moron
mmo has over a million players
10,000 people can shit on it 24/7/365 and dominate all threads on Ganker
mathematically they are still a fringe minority regardless of how much they tell themselves they're the voice of the community
Many of the cultists joined the game too late to play it when it was actually good, but right on time to see it become a forgotten fad. Because this is Ganker, they naturally respond to this by becoming psychotic.
I wish oldgay roleplayers would stop circling around Heavensward as "when it was good," the game was horrible in its early years.
ARR and Stormblood were both better than Heavensward. Heavenswardgays are correct that the game used to be better, but are wrong about when.
Other tanks need mains as loud and b***hy as bald man.
You're so right, from my perspective though I feel like it's no cat ear hood 2 minute meta habibi.
Based /alter/ illuminati inventing terms years before
back in my day, I was called Barry, but that meme got stale.
Did the graphics update go live?
next summer
Ah shit I'd resub to check it out.
Is there a compilation of these before and after pics?
oh wow it's fricking nothing
>theres a plugin that lets you know if someone is sneakily inspecting you
neat
At least there is nothing to tell you when I'm taking a sneaky screenshot of your ass
>retarted attention prostitutes using ptom
>even more moronic limsa dwellers find out a way to inspect you without targeting you
>EVEN more retarted attention prostitutes came up with another plugin that tracks their plate views
It's amusing, like an arms race
Second Life players feed on the lowest possible form of attention.
Wait, what's the plug-in for seeing plate views. I want that.
I'm not excited for fricking anything until I see job changes. Holy shit if they want to jack off their burst job design that's fine, but give us something to do between the fricking windows. DRK is literal fricking drool mode after bursting. GNB feels like the only tank that does something outside of bursting because the CDs are at 30 seconds.
It's funny how the worst tank (WAR) and worst healer (WHM) are always the most obnoxious
>haha my favorite healer? le warrior of course XD
>haha my favorite mitigation ability? it is LE HOLY of course haha XD
>one of my favorite moves of DRK was the fricking nut-buster kick to interrupt attacks
>totally fits DRK as a dirty fighter
>now everyone gets it, even fricking Holy Good Boy Paladins
Um sweet DRK uses the power of love and passion, it's not "dirty".
Most DRK mains got completely and utterly filtered by their own job quests
>instead of just making unique 20% mits for each job they just gave everyone rampart
>Rampart only matches PLD's animations, DRK and WAR already have suitable animations for this idea, they just have to make one for GNB
>The Icon for Reprisal still looks like a Dark Knight skill
Role Actions are gay.
Current limbals are better because it makes the lizards' eyes stand out more
That's not good
Because I don't want to look at you ugly fricks
>heterochromia
>limbal rings mismatched from iris

Are you, cultist-kun?
my statement did not apply to pictures in this thread, I was discussing trends among the unenlightened masses.
Read very carefully

Reminder that the only way to be a legit XIV player is to be on console.
>hooks up XIVAlexander through my PC into my PS4

She was great.
>shaved legs
Fail
You gays will whine that jobs are too homogenized and that job A has better actions than job B in the same fricking post. Just accept that you have no idea how you want the game to play.
The only strategy to take as a game developer is to give the most complacent players monkey paws. The next relic grind is going to include crafting, gathering and PVP steps.
The two are not mutually exclusive
The jobs get homogenized, as in they all play the same
But one gets obviously better numbers than all the others.
Because they all play the same there is NO reason not to use the one with the bigger numbers since that's now the only difference
Still have no idea what they could possibly do for a Green Mage weapon and haven't seen any credible guesses either.
Prob a scepter or a mace.
Kriles current weapon is a staff that looks like a mace.
TBD

Surprised tbeh haven't reused those animations where you fly around the crystal talking to Hydaelyn as a mount yet where your character just takes off and flies DBZ style
From the trailer, it looks like we won't be getting the Clive hair from the event. Sucks.
We already have clive hair
That's just Style For Hire

>armor on female character
ok but what abou crafting and gathering classes?
>what about non-content
don't care
I miss 3.0 MCH and DRK.
I miss 3.0 drk. Wish I never played it. It was perfect. The only gay thing was losing dps if you didn't MT. But getting low blow procs was fricking great.

Not really a fan of the modern gear but for this game I don't think they could have done much better

SHEEEEEEEEEEEESH Armorgays gonna freak
I dunno why people are saying the game isn't evolving or that 7.X will be bad. We have all but confirmed the following:
>Dye channels
>Housing changes; interior redesigns and resizing
>The most content heavy expansion yet
>Heavily implied a return of forays, alongside every other type of content
>Some new unknown new type of combat content
>A "large focus on group play this expansion" unlike 6.X
>Graphics overhaul

So you want Shantotto
That's the NA fanfest.
Ah, you're right. It is.
This isn't EU but the queues were pretty long, I lucked out and bumped into someone I'd met there who was at the front of the queue and needed 1 extra for their party so I didn't have to line up at all for it.

I hate trannies. I do. I see the LGBTQ FC I get legimitately upset, but I just ignore them cause in large games they're going to have a presence. Hell I play a male trap lalafell so what can I say (for jokes, obviously. I love playing buff or slender/cool characters but I decided to change things up)? Just filter these players out and dont pay attention to their narcissism.

Is it true BLU is graduating to a real job? I hope the new limited job isn’t Puppetmaster.
No it's not true. Current tinfoil theory is it'll be some new thing and not BST or PUP because Yoshida repeated those from the crowd suggestions and he's never done that
>puppetmaster where you get to craft dolls with great detail
>beastmaster where you get to collect animals like blu spells then fight them like verminion.
>pictomancer that creates and animates pictures drawn by the player by running it through AI.

She barely played as is. Like 90% of her streams werent even XIV it was basically farm simulator games and talking about sex with her BF.
