BARRY WON
So how do we feel about the Japanese unanimously disliking the difficulty increase and wanting the game to be easier?
WoW won
>>682518576show Sphenis
>>682518576she definitely has a kate bush
>>682518795make the MSQ easier, make the other content harder. This isn't difficult
>>682519243
>>682519298
>>682519334
>>682519372
>>682518795What we need to consider when it comes to MSQ duties is that they are entirely separate from the MSQ, as in, they get in the way of the regular visual novel gameplay.Usually we want to be done with the story so we can play the game and content. It's the opposite for story players now, who are the vast majority of players, they want to be done with the gameplay so they can get to the story.So it's fair. Stupid but fair.
>>682519213That will just make the bridge from easy to difficult content even bigger. The JP casual community just needs to get over themselves
Sphene is CUTE
>>682518576Sphene Buttsex?
>>682519503this tbqh. I'm only doing the MSQ dungeons with duty support anyway for the unique dialogue options, and the trash pulls get in the way of that
Bring her back Yoshit Piss or I won't resub
>>682518576>>682519554>>682519587>>682519653How big is her futa cock?
>>682518576Funny how everyone knew she was doomed the second her design was revealed.
>>682519690It's plug and play
>Not even Yoshi's favorite streamer, Preach (a known lefty tranny lover), can defend Wuk Lamat's tranny VA any longer.https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2194738757?t=3h23m37s
>>682518576not on my watch
>>682519735>>Funny how everyone knew she was doomed the second her design was revealed.That's because she was an attractive female character and CBU3 hates attractive female characters because they're entirely staffed by fujos, fags, and trannies.
>>682518576I love her.
>>682519372>bdsm gearwhat the actual fuck, how long until we see limsa freaks walking around with that mask?
Sphene reminds me of my ex-girlfriend, cute and manipulative with lots of guilt tripping and victim complex.

>>682518795I don't see how it's hard to add in a difficulty feature and then just cut out mechanics from fights in dungeons and trials. See those AOEs? There are now just 2 instead of 4. Boom. The retarded nips can sail through them with trusts and be bored to death at how easy things are.
>>682520083And then most people would run easy dungeons because it would be faster
this has to be a joke, right?
>>682519971You don’t see it much cuz it’s crafted I think
>>682519971I mostly just see people using the jackets.
>>682520045this picture of yoshida glows in the dark thanks to a certain brown australian
>the biggest remaining XIV streamer has to pretend she doesn't hate Wuk as she goes through MSQkek
say it
>>682519971It's Mad Max and Fist of the North Star.
>>682519929It is not a good sign when a company becomes this fucking predictable

>>682518576Sphene is as much of a dogshit character as wuk lamatBut atleast she is cute, hot and has good voice actingStill fucking hate her, but also still wanna lick her pits
>>682520609https://baraag.net/@yuyuu/112758893292029052
>>682520239Fake accents are good representation
Is crit a bad meld this early into the expansion?
>>682520083Unironically they should just make a mode where you cannot even die and you have increased damage.Just give them the option to turn that on in and allow them to do multiplayer trials on their own on easy mode.
>>682520749it's never a bad meld
>>682520443>pretendNah, she's shitting Wuk non-stop.
>>682520496would not even be mad if this fella was the final boss of post-patch
>>682520665
>>682520749Never stop maxing crit.
>>682520239Why is the white tranny pretending to be latino?

>>682520836he wants to be the next hank azaria
>>682520496Lemonaide
>>682519735It's an established pattern at this point that they add a attractive woman then remove her from the story before her piece of content is done. She was either going to die or become irrelevant somehow.
>>682520776we know it's you Barry you psychopathic piece of shit
>>682518795will legitimately by the death knell of this game>>682519503>they get in the way of the regular visual novel gameplay.shut the fuck up. 40 billion "ask random npcs about stupid shit" and "pick literal shit off the ground" quests padding the FUCK out of every single msq all the way since ARR "gets in the way" of the story way more then duties, which always directly tie into key story scenes and have actual story shit happening in them
Dubfags deserve to sufferIt's a Japanese game, you should be playing it with JP voices
Now that the trannies and the diversity maniacs have had their moment of glory they will leave us alone and fuck off to other games. Surely.
>>682520843No because I don't have an EB
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2194914950?t=2h19m41s
>>682520665I wish Sphene was a better written character, but then most of Dawntrail is poorly written.
>>682520948By that logic all the text should be in Japanese too. Do you know Japanese?

>>682520984perhaps if i widen the space in my head that they occupy rent-free by posting about them, they'll go away
>he plays with dubs
>>682520984LOL. Kate wil make sure to enshittify the game until she gets the boot.

I have a confession to make.I look at guides and memorize the mechanics before every piece of content i do.It could be the easiest dungeon or solo duty and i will make time to memorize it.Failure is not fun at all.
>7.1>We immediately bump into Sphene's shard on the sourceI hope they don't do something this trite.
>>682520045>159 pagesGod damn.
if this bitch isn't dead by 7.5, i quit the game and never return
>>682520336I got it from the gear coffers from the MSQ so I assume you can just buy it from vendors.
>>682519243What set is this again?
>>682518795There's a difficulty increase?
>zepla currently streaming the beginning of the 3rd zone.>she says, and I quote "This is the most boring thing I have ever done in a video game."
Don't open it
>>682521014Man even i didn't hate Wuk-chan that much.The only real problems with the character are the oversaturation and the eng va and the lack of her reckless idealism being challenged.
>>682520890And they make such wholesome Erenville stuff.
>>682518795increase to what? hardcore content or all the content?
>>682521213Third zone is the cooking right? Or is that the giants? I already forgot
>>682519840Can't decide which underdeveloped lizard is cuter.
>>682519372One of the allied societies is gonna be a bunch of mad max lads in the desert
>>682521292The cooking part.

>>682521145>source dood trust me bro
Are we getting better food with the raid patch?
>>682521075Was it the one in living memory? By the time people get there they are so over her bullshit.
>>682521103The problem with your shitposting is that Kate's demonstrably retarded ethos wasn't shitting up the dub until very recently. I know people that joined in ARR EXACTLY because of this, because they wanted to escape Western shittiness.
>HanaKanadubfags lose again
somebody is fucking huge mad some of his posts were deleted in the last thread
>>682521293they're both cute, but you can't beat the blessedtwice the heads, twice the funplus he'd probably treat you better, zarool would be kinda abusive i think
>>682518795>how do we feel about *random unverified bullshit*I dunno man
>>682521356Yeah, i honestly thought it would just be all seething "trans rights" spam kinda shit but, was genuinely surprised at how many people took my side and agreed
>>682521273
Am I cooked chat
>>682521145i don't want yoship to beat himself over it.. but based if true
>>682521469When I was doing living memory for MSQ, there were constantly people in shout chat talking about how shit the story was, and especially how the living memory quests were dragging on. Very little defense of it in the instance I was in.
>>682521394>HanaKanaWho she playing?
>>682521441Zoraal Ja requires you to assert dominance, don't be a pussy and play by his rules.Bakool is for if you need traumatized lizardtwins to look after, which is also nice.
>>682521503Built for big malera cock
Why are Elezen women like this?
>>682521225And the fact she legit never once did anything to help her people before she had something to gain from it.And how she's always talking about wanting peace but still presents herself as a warrior eager for violence.And how the trials she overcame to become leader of Tural were all shit that a kid at a school trip would do.
>>682521337I thought of the guitarist from "The Darknesshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKjZuykKY1I
>>682521384i mean yeah, as soon as she got some power, she abused it in order to push the californian agenda
Execute all the Alexandrian scum ahahaahahahaha! Kill them and watch them revive and use up one of their pitiful lives, then kill them again! Let's try blowing them up with the bomb train and see if their little soul battery can save them AHAHAHAAHAHAHHA!
>>682521503Built for big lalaboy cock
>can't obtain the mask>yetThey're either never going to put it in the game or it's going to be for the beast tribe uhh I mean animal squad uhh I mean societal questlines>but I'm a viera I can't wear h-And I'm a middie not my FUCKING problem
>>682521639Figures they'd need lizard monsters to feel attractive.No one else is into them.
DEAD BABY DUNGEON
>>682521661he, without pills, can make a better job than sena
>>682521616It's probably the retard who keeps saying she voices Sphene when Sphene is voiced by Lynn. HanaKana voices Rinoa in Disssidia anyway and I've seen no one give a shit about her because of that.
>>682521639Every white woman dreams of cultural enrichment
I remember a post a week or so ago about how the VA studio that was used up to endwalker wasn't used in dawntrail. Is this true? I don't really want to scroll through the credits
>>682521761Why didn't we let the alexandrians harvest souls from here? Too pro life to insinuate that fetuses have souls?
>>682521639Because Elezen men are either autistic (Estinien) or homos (Aymeric) so there's no one to dick them down.
Zepla is outright falling apart going through DT kek.
>2000 fucking piety with the healer tome gearEbin
>>682521225Wuk herself is an unnecessary character, it would have been cooler to either support Koana to overcome his Sharlayan autism and learn to express himself and make people see his vision of the future or making Ja Ja stop being an absolute jackass and bring out his good side while helping his people reach a better path.
>>682521672>>682521623Built for neither you fucking sickos
>>682521810saar please redeem
>>682519835We warned the wow refugees for 4 years about the trannies.All they had to do was listen...
>>682521621zarool is for tanks and meleeranged, casters, and healers go for bakool, we're weak so it'll trigger bakool's protective instincts, while zarool would just think we are trash for being so not on the physically strong sideof course you can make up for it with a dominant will, but something tells me that zarool is prejudiced against magic types anyway
>>682521839Aymeric isn't a homo if wol is a girl
>>682521717True
>>682521761Legit question, is it explained anywhere how mamool ja procreate or is it just assumed they're like any reptile that lays eggs?
>>682521962People sure like lizard dicks, don't they?
>>682521845
>>682521827they're just dead bodies, they wouldn't have souls anymore + the actual drama with alexandria is that sphene is just a robot with the prime directive of "keep alexandria memory ghosts alive forever without compromises" and "upload every dead alexandrian as a memory ghost" meaning she would literally keep going until she ran out of souls.how obviously bad this plan is, is why she has to delete feelings.exe
7.1: Patrolling the desert with these two.
>>682521980yjk
>>682522045yes, the future is noweven the japanese aren't as violently against them as i expectedi hope this is reflected in future patch content
The biggest question I have is how did the South Sea Isles Lalas get ahold of Azems sippyy cup thing
>>682521971He acts slightly different in scenes if the WoL is a girl. He reacts way happier if female WoL suggests he should come with her on her next adventure.
>>682521962Showing Zarool Ja that he's powerless against the WoL.. hot..>>682522045Been that way for years.
>>682522158It might legit be the famous grapes volcano island.
>>682522158Simple, it wasn't made by Azem. The Goblet absorbed some power from our crystal when we used it.
>>682522052>>682521845AAAAAAAAAAH KOANA'S VOICE IS HORRIBLE AS WELLI'M NOT WATCHING ANY EN PLAYTHROUGHFUCK YOU ALL
>>682520836Mutts love identity politics because they can always shift to whatever is most advantageous in any given situation. They're like genetic chameleons.
>>682522158Through honest trade and merchantry.
>>682518795I think...skill issueIt's the same stuff as before, just remixed to confuse you...
>>682521818I ended up searching.I don't know specifically why but Dawntrail seems to be grouped under Side Global instead of Side UK but then there are tweets that Side UK was one of the studios included in the Dawntrail localization.
>>682522237Azems crystal didn't exist until much later when Emet made it in secret.

Sphene did nothing wrong.AI Sphene never had the option to do nothing wrong.
>Gaius tells Cid all about his dad going against Garlemald because he didn't want Cid to live that life>"Join me, Cid. It's your destiny just a your father wanted.">"What? You just told me my dad didn't want that.">"Okay, what about you, WoL? You should join me.">"No.">"Okay, well, I tried. Let's fight."This damn cutscene makes me laugh every time. What the fuck were they even trying with this writing?
>>682522195unironically placating zarool's ideals and also humbling him by fucking beating him to pieces is probably the best way to earn his respect and his undying love for you
>>682522191Thancred is never wrong
>>682522269The dunies are the kikes anon, Plains lalas were just Hawaiian farmers
I called it in 2023 when I said DT would completely break down the fanbase and mark the beginning of the end, and it feels so good to see it play out before my very eyes
>>682518795Thought leveling dungeons were fine, that being said the two unlocks at 100 are stirring the game in a direction I don't like, which is the Dark souls approach of "Get fucked to learn, lol". Usualy fights before extreme and the difficulties after are pretty clear about what you have to do, or give you enough hints. Here it's just fuck mechanics after fuck you mechanics
>>682522391Beating the shit out of him would just piss him off even more
It was a big misstep having Wuk in the second half of the MSQ to have there be a parallel between her and Sphene. Its a 21 hour MSQ and you have a character with 20 hours of screen time, let the fucking narrative breathe a bit.
>>682521669BIG FAT MILKY CAT TITS
Zenos only appeals to homosexual men who read half the Wikipedia page on Nietzche.
>>682522446it is an outright and prejudiced lie that the dunesfolk are in control of the political and cultural institutions of eorzeanow apologize or you'll never work in this town again
>>682521215
>>682522524except cbu3 knows how to course correct instead of sitting on their asses waiting everything will magically fix itself
>>682520749Better to go DH early in expansion
>>682521298beast tribes
>>682521962>main female lead is so mindblowingly terrible the fanbase chooses to fuck the lizards instead
>>682522364Our game will never get to be fun will it
>>682522524We heard you the first twenty times you posted it bud
>>682521669i wish they made her prettier like this. bigger boobies. also maybe some eyebrows idk
>>682522391I wish we had literally anything to say to him during the MSQ, telling him he has no chance against us would've been so satisfying, instead we get whatever Wuk's feelings towards him were.
>>682522557it was able to calm zenos down, maybe you have to give him a peptalk telling him he has nothing to prove first though
>>682522631They should've realized something was wrong here and course corrected before even releasing it.
>>682522671women usually focus on the male characters instead, yes, that's nothing new
>>682518795People have always complained about casuals or parsefags ruining the game but the actual cancer that is going to end up killing it is the JP community because not only is it filled with dogshit players with shitty mindsets due to never playing other games but they're also extremely averse to change.
>>682522726>FFXIV>female players
I think its safe to say any Rybackpost can be ignored
>>682522579The big misstep was involving Tullioyal and it's surrounding at all. We could have had a full expac revolving around the Alexandrian story, or even spilt it with the Milala's story if they didn't want to do a full Alex expac. Instead we're wasting 3/4 with the retarded cat
>AY CARABMA DA STEAMED MAMJOOL>DIOS MIO DA STEAMED MAJAOOLAUnironically bring the brits back this is torture to listen-

>>682518576Did everything the trial offers you. Waiting on next expansion so the trial get expanded again.

>>682522765There is an alarmingly high number of non tranny women who play this game anon. Shit one of my old raid teams had three women in it.
Would you guys have preferred a complete Copy & Paste of Treasures of Aht Urghan or something?
>>682518795Proof?
Is there a new poncho in the expac? I can't dye the old one and I've been wanting a Poncho forever.
>>682521845>>682522052>doing the valigarmanda msq trial>jumps right into the tankbuster marker multiple times as a caster>doesn't recognize the 'keep moving or you freeze' mechanicshe's been playing religiously for years and is perfect legend btw
>>682521858>Wuk herself is an unnecessary character,I think we've confused "I don't like her" with "she isn't necessary for the plot."
>>682522947Theres one in the 93 dungeon. Pretty sure every role gets the same one.
>>682522857At least hermit crabs are cute
>>682521858I genuinely think this story would have been way cooler and more interesting if Bakool was the ultimate winner. Just remove him freeing Valigarmanda (a plot point that already makes no sense anyway) and you would get way better stuff out of him learning and maturing.
>>682522920Anything is better than powerpoint presentations from shitty voice actors about ethnic slop and diversity
>>682521337>>682521661We have some grandpas in these threads, huh?He really does look like these however, what a ghoul of a man
>>682522887MMOs usually attract women for the social aspect of it
>>682522102yeah, but with rubber bullets.
>>682522920it already feels like they were trying to do this and Seekers of Adoulin at the same time, but forgot to make the female sidekick/lead into someone actually cute. Wuk is just Arciela
>>682522947>>682519298
>>682521827I think you meant "pro-choice" in this scenario
>>682522920I would have preferred a story where Wuk Lamat and the story of succession didn't exists. Also, no scions. And no, I don't me like they did now. No. Scions. Nowhere in sight, not even close. Not even on the same continent, just move on from them. Holy shit
>>682520239He claimed back in 2016 that he's white. So which is it, Sena?
>>682522920I know for sure a Naja copypaste would have been better received, at least.

>>682523098Hunt trains, bozja if there are people in there.
>>682522631this is some incredible, distilled copedelicious
>>682522158They had ahold of the crystal inside it, Azem probably buried a shit in the soil there like a cat and the lalafells on the South Sea isles found it thousands of years laterAlexandrians, specifically the Preservation (Perseverance? Don't remember what the name was) scientists, covered it in the electrope sippy-cup to try and force it to work
So what's the reason Mamool Ja pretended to be retards in Eorzea?
>>682521145Do you have a single source to back that up?
>>682523046and its an FF, extremely girl series. i swear xi was filled with fucking milfs everywhere too, ones who grew up making weird ass ff7/8 yaoi fancomics in school

>>682523260>Discover a new plant>Somehow, Wuk Lamat is on itNo wonder Meteion wanted to end it all
>>682523097Lots of "Steppy Subs" posting would have been too much.

>>682523015>Just remove him freeing Valigarmanda (a plot point that already makes no sense anyway)- heavily deter the other contestants- if not outright cancel the contest and therefore his participation in it, he doesn't give a shit about ruling- ideally valigarmanda will also destroy mamook and he won't have to do their fucking bidding anymore with or without the contest- only he and gulool ja ja can do it because they're both two-heads and can fire off spells at exactly the same time- funny
All video game generals belong on /vg/.

I already have both on the same account so you can't tell me that it's technical issues or whatnot.
Do I really need Wuk to recap to Koana. I have been following the plot ?!?
