You already forgot about me anon?
>>682936038it already fucking exists you colossal faggot"oh everybody forgot about it" doesn't count, even if the original idea is kinda dumb

>>682936056UNSEX
How did the Tenacious Tour Guide stay active after we unplugged the system and deleted Living Memory?
>>682936038I didn't want it in the Omicron quests but the fact is that it's there and there was no reason to kill the Endless like that when an alternative exists. There has to be consistency in the story. A new writer can't come in and just ignore everything that came previously.
>>682936354ooooohhh cutscene skipper, oh cutscene skipper~
>>682936056Cow print lingerie make me act up...
>>682936354by not being an endless.
>>682936446>>682936439I don't see what the difference is, didn't Sphene stop living people from going there years ago?
>>682936354he's very tenacious, as the name suggests
>>682936056I need a dump of Sphene lewds fast

>>682936056I'm so sick of people posting this garbage image. The person who made it had no idea how to correctly handle facial poses and the end result is something utterly ugly.

>>682936864yea pretty muchpretty big improvement if you ask me
>>682936932Kill yourself.
Yoshitpiss killed Final Faggotry btw.
>>682936669Imagine putting your rod in her moisthole
Oh for fucks sake and here I was happy as a melee actually having to work for uptime reminding me of SB raiding. If they make bosses full uptime again I'm going to freak
>>682937161I dont need to imagine ktisis will get updated in like a day.
>>682936932Hey! Hey! How big are those tits?!
Is unironically crazy how much better everything is with a lack of wuk
>>682937391>Wow! This arena looks fun!>Mind if I join in?
controlling bones in ktsis sucks ass. i thought it was supposed to be better than anamnesis. also, is anamnesis the only tool that can go beyond character creator sliders for things like muscle toning? sucks having to use customize just for stuff like that
>>682937391>reach the final fight with Wicked Thunder>get knocked down>Wuk Lamat appears to save us>"EUTROOOOOOOPE, LISTEN TO MEEEEE">story is now about how Wuk frees the souls in the Everkeep
>>682937205Ktisis is already updated
>>682937641oh i thought it broke with the raid patch. cool
>>682936561I had no idea so many people were into armpits until the Sphene stuff started
>>682937597Do you think that by being just as annoying as woke lemutt was in the story you are somehow contributing something to this thread. go on ao3 if you want to write fanfiction.
>>682937692Any hot blooded male would get enticed by those pits.
>>682937749>Do you think that by being just as annoying as woke lemutt was in the story you are somehow contributing something to this thread.yes, more than you in fact
>>682937786Pitfags make no sense to me.
>>682937864I spent the last two threads talking about patch content while you and every other unfunny retard wails and moans like a bitch about a bad character and shits up the thread with your inane gobbledygook fanfiction. I've objectively talked about the game more than you have by every measurable metric and you would be made to chop off your left ring finger as penance for your behavior if this was a just world.
No lalas and Tural has been in constant peace thanks to lizard dad keeping the plotting scheming gil rats off of his continents.
Still a few quests away from finishing DT. Overall, the story was a nice break from the usual shit going wrong in Eorzea, minus the western town. Im in Living Memory and I feel with the urgency, we'd beeline to stop Sphene but Lamat's wanting to learn about cultures thing got an audible groan out of me. XIV really loves to hammer in the lesson just in case I missed it the first 80 times, word for word.

>>682938126so what kind of mental illness is this? men transitioning to women?

>>682938186Botched implants.
>>682938008everyone is extremely proud of you for talking about vidya on an anonymous mongolian basket weaving forum, I'll be sure to bring up the same Living Memory arguments over and over next time so we stay on topic
>>682938059One of the only moments I liked in Dawntrail was when the pink haired girl comes running up to your party and says "Yo, you guys wasted so much fucking time looking at farms and following around a tiny lizard that the final boss just got bored and left."At least they acknowledged the complete lack of urgency.Actually maybe I could make a 3 hour retrospective video explaining how Dawntrail is actually a masterpiece self-aware deconstruction of the Final Fantasy formula that is doing everything wrong on purpose.
>>682938186It's called being gay. Many gays hate trannies, actually. As for why so much gay smut draws men with tit-like pecs, I have no idea.
>>682938126ZAMN! lucky ginger
>>682937201>Casters are used to interrupting casts or using shitty instants to avoid mechanics since ARRGiving melee 20 foot arms for bosses was a mistake.
>>682938313...those are supposed to be pecs? what the fuck
>>682938282I'm sure you will because it will fit your personality of being a broken record instead of talking about actually interesting things like what the .3 trial will be, or what systems they're going to combine from bozja and eureka for 7.2, or what cosmic exploration is going to entail, or anything actually interesting.
>>682938313I am bisexual leaning hard towards dudes and that shit is disgusting and almost never consumed by men. It's consumed and propagated by ftm and fujos.
>>682937201I'm actually having trouble maintaining full uptime on some of the fights, which is nice, there's actually ways to improve as you go, this is probably the most fun normal modes we've ever had at launch, can't wait to see how Savage measures up
>>682938380Browsing gay smut long enough will expose you to this kind of shit. For the record I am bi and find it retarded.
>>682938337Yeah and having to actually to work for uptime makes the fights much more fun on melee.
>>682936056aWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>682938126>be a faggot >into muscly shit>have no idea where muscles are and what they look likeit's not just the tits, but even the arms look all out of whackdo those people not have a mirror or what
>>682938186>>682938313>>682938380Like how straight men like big tits, many gay men like big pecs. Artists exaggerate the body parts they like.
>>682938545its not a faggot its a fujo.
>>682938380mantit fags are retarded, give them a wide berth
>>682938572what you posted is still definitively pecs instead of stapled on breasts like the image in question. The image in question is posted by a stupid fujo retard with a male lactation fetish.
>>682936056Fuck sphene, I have my new tomboy cat and a complementary loli
>>682938381you aren't doing any of those, you are off topic complaining about my posts, you should try talking about the game instead
>>682936883Yeah, that's the only problem, not the off model and disproportional body.
>>682938713I talked about all of those things for the last 4 hours. you've done fuck all nothing. eat my entire asshole retard
>>682936056holy sexMOAR
>adjusting VPR so that positionals are not difficultwhat are they going to do? remove the positional requirements on the main combo?
>>682937201How the FUCK can I parse if I need to use brain to get uptime?!
>>682938778>I talked about all of those things for the last 4 hours>and now I'm gonna spend hours complaining about your postsyou ever think you should spend your time better?
>>682937201>Game get fun>Retards start screeching because MAH NOOMBAH YOSHI PEE PLEASE MAH NOOMBAHI can't fucking tell anymore if I live in a crazy world or I'm just the crazy one
>>682938915No I'm actually gonna go to bed in about 9 minutes
>>682938126>why yes I do only bench 7 times per week how could you tell?
>>682938829hopefully, as positionals suck dickthe real melee skill differentiatior should be uptime, because then as a tank I'd be allowed to cuck out parsefags out of their numbers 20 seconds before the kill
>>682938778Kate's bravest little soldier right here
>>682938669They're both using the exact same body mod with the exact same large pecs.
>>682938936nothing good happens when an online game becomes popular. "Popular thing bad" is real when its a game that gets updates.
>>682938987You care more about a scapegoat to whine about than you actually do about this game btw
>>682938945oh, that's good, sleep tight anon
>>682937201It's normal you fucking clown, people will find uptime strats for savage like hallowed wings or ifrit football
>>682939120Analway
>>682939068No, the actual titty ones have been modified with customize+.
>>682939098I hope she/they sees this bro
>>682938936Good thing everyone is shitting on that guy there
>>682938972>not only have to maintain uptime, but also have to hit the correct part of the bosswe call that depth, that's a good thing, missing one or two positionals isn't the end of the world, missing little to none of them is the mark of a really good player
>>682939178I do. I won't fuck him though. Also Alisaie will have her big moment in the next update, look forward to it fellow americans :)
>>682938972Viper positionals are fine since they're color coded and should be retard proof.
>>682939174Both the images in question are from the same gynoschizo.
>>682937201i don't understand how people think like this, ff logs works on how EVERYONE did not how the game works, everyone is going to have shit uptime so your parse is going to be in accordance with that, why the fuck do people care about uptime so much.
the loporrits were better than all the races introduced in DT, their story was more interesting than the xpack too
>>682939174No they haven't, I should know because I made both of those pics.
>>682939296So they can jack themselves off thinking they're so fucking good at simon says. That's it.
>>682939296Because people who can use their brains a little will have better uptime and it means their parse will be better.
>>682939256except it's boring as fuck rather than engagingfighting for uptime often needed the group to do weird shit so meleecucks could stay on the boss, which was vastly more fun to come up with than going a little bit to the left and then to the right for 2 gcd
thinking of trying for necromancerare there any guides? and i'm not talking about enemies/mob guides there are sites for those but rather>best jobs>when to hoard pomanders>when to stop hoarding and just rush floors

>>682939589I made a portrait like this for a while wearing that beach top, never ever got so many commies in my life. I'd get max after every duty.
>>682938829No, they're very clearly going to remove the positionals in the Dreadwinder combo because they don't like having jobs that have to do rear/flank back to back and vice versa. The only job that DOES still have that is fucking RPR, and you can just rip True North for every Gluttony window anyways.
>doing ex2>war tank forgets to push a mit button>dies instantly to projection of triumph I’m starting to think WAR are very overrated.
>>682936367you people are over thinking this and just going well these are memories and those are memories they must work exactly the same. We are never explained how the endless work exactly, beyond oh we have some memories on a electrope computer thingy. There is the fact that they also specifically need souls to be reconstituted as an energy source by the machinery that operates living memory, and the fact that they cannot leave that area. There is enough wiggle room in all that to easily say they cannot be just dynamis reconstituted. Finally there is the other major issue with you theory, well it worked in ultima thule so just do it no problem. What part of meteion hoarding dynamis there for literally 10s of thousands of years did you forget? We dont know how meteion made ultima thule, we dont know how ultima thule works, even in the omicron quests it is not explained, beyond oh look our thoughts and feelings have manifested things. There is more than enough wiggle room in that vagueness to say that even if you could take all the machinery and computers in living memory and some how move it to ultima thule (a big fucking ask because we dont know how much of that shit is needed to sustain itself) that we could just conjure the people out of the computers as dynamis constructs. How are dynamis constructs made is it from the memories of the actual things, or from someone else. The implication was that the memories reconstituting ultima thule were the meteia's collective memories, not the actual substantive memories of those people. SO given that youd probably need to get sphenes memories of all the people, except she doesnt have the memories of all the people, and you would need whatever has the memories to be able to manipulate dynamis. Therefore it is a safe bet that the living memory machinery cant do that, and frankly it would be a tremendous asspull to have some random scion or other npc suddenly figure out how to do that. TLDR: think harder
>>682939384I don't really see how its boring as fuck, is having no positionals somehow more exciting?>>682939975back in ARR, if you missed your positional for certain attacks, you'd miss the buff, Dragoon used to have Heavy Thrust which had to be refreshed but also had to hit the flank to activate the buff, this caused some issues in early fights where omnidirectional bosses weren't a thingused to be that positionals used to give more Kenki to Samurai, but they changed it to flat damage instead for more homogenized job design
>>682940197Good WAR can survive anything, the problem is that idiots hear that and think it means "WAR can survive anything" and a lot of idiots gravitate to WAR because of that.

>>682939448Just thank God you didn't pick a French server.
I was raped in Limsa Lominsa today.
>>682940197WAR is amazing, but attracts moronssame reason why there are people that somehow fuck up SMN despite the job quite literally being retard proof
>>682940363>my 11 year old accountStop being such a sunk cost faggot.
>>682936056She's not that busty, she's flat in game.
>>682940252>is having no positionals somehow more exciting?no, but neither is having positionals in the first place. it's a non-mechanic that doesn't add anything.have blm in your group? they do big damage (well, they did once lmao) but you need to work out how to make it so they don't break casts. same with melee: have the group figure out how tanks should move the boss so that melee can keep attacking.since, y'know, savage is a TEAM effort
>>682940401EU is just fucked>pick Chaos>get stuck with clueless frogs>pick Light>get stuck with retarded angry krautsyou can't win
>>682940363Blizzard have been pretty lax about those things in the past. Hell, they've even given me like 4 months worth of game time for free over the years just by sending a support ticket
>>682940252>is having no positionals somehow more exciting?Even MNK only hits positionals like 6 times in a whole minute now I'm shocked they haven't ditched the idea entirely
>>682940197WAR is to tanks what WHM is to healers. It's the easiest and most used, so you will have a lot more baddies than good.

>>682940414Was it a catgirl

>>682940547I actually think GUB might hold the candle for that title though since people think "Oh it's just a DPS but blue!"I've seen some fucking terrible GUBs that have no idea how to handle a single tank mechanic.
>>682940513>>get stuck with clueless frogsalmost everybody migrated to light for PF content tho. it started out that chaos had savage and light got ultimates, but ultimates are always semi-active so there were always some people that might join your savage shitruns 3 months after release where savage was dead and over time everybody migrated to light
>>682940653I saw this video and it gatekept me.I didn't play this game for 4 years because of it as I assumed the players were all fucking weirdos.

>>682940247>There is enough wiggle room in all that to easily say they cannot be just dynamis reconstituted.there's the whole "clone of a clone of the original" thing going on there too where you are knowingly making a dynamis reconstruction of a soul consuming digital reconstruction of the memory data of a person that's been dead for a very long timeMUH ULTIMA THULE is a media literacy and critical thinking issue
I’m thinkin’ DT won
>>682938008Next time ff shouldn't make such a funny char to shitpost. You are clearly upset people are shitting on your nigger cat lol.
>>682940653this might be the weirdest xiv video that exists and this includes all the deranged modbeast shit
>>682940809Light has more parties and more shitters looking for carries basically.
>>682940508>it's a non-mechanic that doesn't add anythingit forces you to think about your position relative to the boss at all times, meaning that if you want to maximize damage, you have to be mindful of where you are positioned, being too liberal with True North means it won't be up when you need it. Positionals don't add much in a vacuum, its when you layer them over your rotation and fight mechanics that it adds a layer of depth that would otherwise be missing, it gives you more to think about and allows for skill expression>>682940538people have suggested they will remove positionals for years now and its never happened, even VPR before the announcement of changes has a lot of positional requirements in a short amount of time, they aren't ever going to prune them fully, if they intended to do so, it would have already happened
>>682940734It blows me away of just how many bad tanks there are, I've had tanks that don't use a single aoe, or they keep stepping into aoes, or they never use mitigation, or they forget wtf arms length is.
>>682940845They deserve worse.
>>682940891The Gayming Awards 2024? Yes
so the new Eureka/Bozja will have FFX gear, right?
>>682940940>it forces you to think about your position relative to the boss at all timesno it fucking doesn't when boss repositions every 15 seconds on its own, or stands in the middle casting for a minute straight, assuming it's not a wall in the first placeah whatever, i don't really care about positionals enough to talk about it anymore

>>682940952I was doing M3 yesterday, tanking the boss.Other tank was a GUB who came in with stance on and I figured I'd let him go for it. I didn't turn on my own stance until a minute into the fight to give him a safe headstart, at 2 minutes I had to shirk him, at 3 minutes I just said fuck it I'm tanking now because he wasn't doing any damage at all.When the shared tank buster landed on him he just freaked the fuck out, ran into the party, they ran away from them, then he ran away from me and died without using a single mit.I do not understand how these players reach level 100.
>>682941125I don't see the link. X has all the tropical shit.

Yep, mods are back which means we're allowed to play FFXIV again. You like this. This is why (You) play FFXIV.https://files.catbox.moe/py7504.png
>>682941140That doesn't work in an image thoughPersonally I just like the strapless top look
>>682941239To match all the futuristic stuff
>>682941056I really hate how Endwalker made practically EVERY single boss jump around and position itself for mechanics and that trend is continuing with Dawntrail, it used to happen before, but never to the extent that Endwalker did, I can't think of a single boss that doesn't behave like thisthe fights in DT are good, but I really hate this style of combat, its fine for some attacks, but it feels like its how 90% of mechanics start
>>682941240Good except for Wuk.>>682941275but that's mostly because of Alexandria, unless they swerve hard and include Zanarkand/Ronka shit to justify that
>>682941247>New ability unlocked: Seppuku
>>682941264It does, men are extremely visual, the brain just associates armpits with some good female pheromones, specially if the girl on the screen is cute.
>>682941264>That doesn't work in an image thoughOf course it does, you can look at a picture of a steak and your brain will make you think of the taste and smell automatically, you recognize what it is visually and the almonds activate.
>>682941153>When the shared tank buster landed on him he just freaked the fuck out, ran into the party, they ran away from them, then he ran away from me and died without using a single mit.Same thing but with a warrior
>>682941262>catbox linked pic
>>682940289>>682940415>>682940547“Pushing a mit” is literally the only gameplay that exists for warriors and about 40% do not do it.
>>682941302>I really hate how Endwalker made practically EVERY single boss jump around and position itself for mechanics and that trend is continuing with Dawntrail, it used to happen before, but never to the extent that Endwalker did, I can't think of a single boss that doesn't behave like thisand the reason for it was that melee were crying about missing positionalsso, cool design. same as melee crying about uptime that caused hitboxes to take up more space than your mom.
>>682940845All lalas deserve death. And I don't just mean the characters.
>>682941446you liked it
>>682941448>>682941429I dunno maybe it's different because I know the game but like literally, forget holmgang or any other death immune, if you just pop your short CD alongside your 2 minute you can eat any shared buster outside of savage.Even in fucking EX you can solo the soak with just one mit.
>>682941369Athena did nothing wrong.
>>682941490Why are meleefags the biggest bitches in the game?
>>682941153Its kind of bizarre how some players genuinely learn nothing while playingnot their rotation, not how their skills work or interact, not their raid buffs, never looked up or asked how their job worksI still make mistakes, but I know how each job works just from inferring it from tooltips or combo structure, part of the reason I think they attached big finishers to raid buffs is to try make shitters actually use them
>>682941592if you don't bitch you don't get stuffif you bitch you dot. WAR
>>682941247GATOSEXOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My tiny brain was so used to playing jobs with rigid rotations for so long so PCT is actually impossible for me.
MNK is still such a shit class to play when compared to the other melee. I leveled it through MSQ first as I've been doing since HW and was actually starting to like the class again for the first time in years until I started to level the other melee.
>>682941153I bet he posted about it on reddit and his 'tanxiety' too.

>>682941918if you want to heal come to turtle wow. they fixed druid and paly tanking so there's no healers on the server. it's 60% warriors 25% mages 10% druid/paly tank mix and then the rest of the classes which honestly is a better class distribution than any other iteration of wow i've ever played with metafags thinking muh parse is the end all be all of life
>>682941970I just wish they'd fucking remove potency from all movement spells.It's retarded that it still exists on WAR and PLD. If you want them to have more off globals to use in burst, give them more off globals.

Is it just me or does the whole second half of DT feel very ...mechanical? Unrealized? lacking confidence?Like im not saying EATING SOULS GOOD (Obviously) so much that it feels like it was written way too uninterestingly and mechanically for what it conceptually is and how much time is spent on it because the conclusion was basically already reached before the exploration even started when Alisae says (in optional dialog) she dislikes the whole thing because she seen the "Beauty of the Aetherial Sea" like they couldn't actually risk people liking the whole Soul Eating/Overdrive/BEAST TRANCE shit like they like(d) Garlean shit. Let me put it this way, it feels like i accidentally clicked on a preachy Longform Youtube Essay about something obvious more so then experiencing a story.
>>682942147Viper isn't difficult it's just poorly made, the fact I have to look at the hotbar nonstop to see which of the two buttons is glowing instead of the fight is extremely stupid. I don't have to do this with any other melee.

Honestly both WAR and GUK are just retard magnets.

>>682941918I am maining WHM and with a WHM cohealer we crushed the Valigarmanda EX heal checks. I like having heal checks in general. Less DPS focus so Healers can focus on mandatory HP management through a fight is a good thing. I definitely have a hard time reading mechanics when I'm in the middle of healing people's egregious errors though and I play on controller so sometimes I totally blow it and eat shit but my wife plays RDM so we cover each other's mistakes. I'm actually excited for savage for the first time.

>>682941592Most melee DPS players want the aesthetic fantasy of playing a melee fighter, but they don't actually want the gameplay of one. They want to play a physical ranged DPS that looks like it's a melee fighter.Having to figure out how to maximize uptime, adapt your rotation when you cannot avoid downtime, figure out ways to miss as few positionals as possible: they hate all of this. They want to play Machinist but they want the Machinist to look like it's a Dragoon.

Very rarely have I seen a player doing content for the first time, obviously not understanding how a mechanic work, and just say "hey how do this work?". I can count those interactions on my hand. Though that's admittedly just my personal experience

>>682941247Wuk is too retarded for sex
FFlogs completely destroyed the minds of FFXIV raiders and those raiders in turn proceeded to spam the devs with the most retarded feedback imaginable and the game is garbage now because the devs were too stupid to just ignore them.Raid design got gutted for like four years because melee DPS players overreacted hysterically to E6S, particularly Dragoons, who acted like having to hold their jumps during Garuda was akin to the devs torturing them.
>>682942790Wuk is for public execution.

>>682942768>FF8 enjoyersHey you be quiet now.

>>682942802It's been years since I cleared e6s and I don't remember the two DPS in my group complaining about it, what was wrong with it?
>>682942786It's amazing how wordy and consistly mediocre smut writers are. They must take after the dev team.
>>682942768From my experience, PLD is the job people who don't know how to play tank but want to give it a shot gravitates toward, most PLDs I see fucking up are just doing rookie mistakes.

>>682942496This is why I don't RP in MMOs. I always wanted to, especially since I spent countless hours RPing in NWN PWs, but something about MMOs that attracts the most mentally ill, which considering we're talking about RPing to begin with, is an impressive feat. Assuming you don't bump into a clique that just have the same scene over and over again to circlejerk their characters, you encounter incels that sweet talk you like they're a serial killer who just doxed you.
>>682942768I respect FF8 enjoyers in the same way I respect Dark Souls 2 enjoyersthe whole world is against them, but they hold fast and never let anyone get them down, even if their game sucks and they don't do a good job at defending it

>>682943006I saw a whole group doing it once in western coerthas while I was in the middle of gathering some cottons, some shit about traveling from falcon nest to the camp in the middle to provide "aids and healing magicks". Was kind of neat, a bunch of WHM being escorted by PLD and DRG.
Bros I haven't bought Dawntrail, are the normal mode raids really comparable to Savage now? Are we finally back?
>>682941592looking at all their jobs, their looks seem tailored to retards
I think Alliance raids are the purest form of what your average retard ape wants the game to be.You go and do your rotation badly on a glorified training dummy while ignoring all mechanics while the rest of the raid has to take care of it for you and you're part of a large enough group that not everyone can instantly notice that you're a lazy useless piece of shit.

>>682943236I’m not helping you clear
>>682943385I was talking about how the meta changed in Shadowbringers based solely on changes to fflogs.
How’s Nin? Thinking about leveling it and using it for DT
>>682943293When it works, it works. I've participated in a couple of cool events too, but you have to sift through so much shit to get to something good. Or maybe it was just my experience. On three separate occasions I just picked up e-stalkers who took forever to shake off.
>>682943240People were bringing BLM to raid in the middle of SB because BLM got buffed so hard that buffs didn't matter anymore

>make generic enemy npcs plot relevant mamoolj
>>682940197Most war players you meet jumped on the job in Endwalker when it turned into a blue healer every thirty seconds.
>>682942674I think SE devs are way too focused on making everything super balanced and it makes some jobs just not fun to play at all. Also the over simplification of SCH is frustrating. Just because WHM is easy af to play, doesn't mean all healers need to be training wheels easy.
>>682943451Nah, one look at Limsa and I know I can just take your words for it. XIV just attract mentally unhinged even among the mentally challenged, 98% of the RP is just weird fetish ERP.
>>682943449it's finebiggest draw is lower GCD if you're into that. it's not that complicated otherwise. its main gimmick is invoker orbs from dota 2.

>>682943435i didn't want help clearing....i haven't even reached 100 yet
why is white mage so gimped? it barely has ANY ogcd heals at all until very late levels, benediction is barely useful for how long its cooldown is, its only good animation is glarebut compared to AST its trash. current AST gives you a fuck ton of ogcd heals right from the start, you get 3 stacks of benediction (basically), you have numerous mitigation and shields on top of all that, and you have multiple ultimate cooldowns that are all extremely usefulwhats with the disparity?
>>682943295They're pretty easy but also very fun
>>682943312Not all alliance raids are like this. The problem is that Crystal Tower raids are so severely powercrept that they no longer have any meaningful mechanics, and people go fucking insane when they get non-CT raids in roulette.So CBU3, in their infinite wisdom, decided to design all the alliance raids in Endwalker to be comparable to what CT is like nowadays: completely braindead.
>>682942674Your image depresses me and now it's too late.
>>682943553XIV casual in particular are REALLY scared of failing anything at all. It's perplexing because the entire process in any progression environment is to learn through failure, but I guess these guys don't prog anything to begin with.
>>682943693I'm not talking about just ARR raids here. I see this in HW raids, in Ivalice (not in Orbonn because a third of the raid instantly leaves of it's Orbonn) and it takes until SHB for people to try a little harder.
>>682943482and it was the best decision they made
>>682943295>actually making the people play the game instead of sitting at the same spot spamming his rigid rotation the whole fight>lazy, bad and uncreative designDo xivtroons really?
>>682943728failure just makes me give up
>>682943295>super tight timing windowswhat? wherethe first fight had the slowest left/ / right cleave i've ever seen, i'm pretty sure certain zadnor CEs and dalriada had more punishing and tight mechanicsmost parties that i've heard cleared all 4 fights blind in the first pull or close enoughthese are the people doing a 'healer strike' too I bet
>>682942496Just what is it with auras that attract these people. The females, I can understand, "haha cute and small dragonlet looking thing", but the male don't even look good and their animations are fucked up because not only are they tall by default, every fucking maleras crank up the height slider to eleven.
>>682942674According to many users in these threads FFXIV has not lost any depth whatsoever, never had any depth to begin with, and you're simply insane if you think that HW SCH (with like 5 DoTs and Cleric Stance) had more depth than any modern healer.Of course, I don't find this perspective very agreeable, but some people insist on it very strongly!
>>682943492I will repeat it to the end of time: Make every job have the versatility of Blue Mage, let us fuck shit up and rip and tear through the MSQ. All jobs are made with Savage in mind, but their kit does not translate to non-sterile enviroments like that. Remember when they realize PvE skills was not easy to balance in PvP and made an entirely new system just for that? Where are they hiding that genius when we need him the most?
>>682943652a man with daddy issues that severe can never properly satisfy a woman

>>682943295No his just a shitter, the only mechanic that's slightly difficult is the bee fight where she starts spamming aoes and lines absolutely everywhere.
>>682943815I'm pretty sure he's talking about the M4 floor destroying move because that's the only one I can think that's even remotely close
>>682943786Pretty much all the old alliance raids are severely powercrept nowadays. Weeping City and Dun Scaith used to regularly cause tons of wipes and you simply had no idea how long you'd be in there because you could get a bad group that would repeatedly wipe on a boss.It may sound crazy nowadays, but you would sometimes have vote disbands go through in alliance raids!
>>682943875the dumbest part when it comes to savage is that not all jobs are equal, like MCH sucks ass and will prob have trouble finding week 1 groups

>>682943854The damage is already done, anon. The healers in this game has been in a vegetable state for longer than they have not. The playerbase have doubled, maybe tripled, since Shadowbringers and one button DPS is all they know. If the OF is any indication, the veterans who call for a more return to form or just the middle point (Stormblood) is met with contempt and open hostility from newer players. A few are more curious than nothing else so its not all laste.
Some in the official Forums are...dare I say it, based.
>>682944064oral rape
>>682943854Its lost depth by the way of job homogenisation, QoL updates and general changes that make things easier at a base level, like bigger hitboxes, more on-demand healing, etcwhether or not this is better, worse or if there's still enough depth is another matter, I still find the game fun to play, but the game has undergone a decade of changes, not all of them are going to be universally agreed on
>M4>get most of the comms as DPS because I was the only one who didn't die to the floor break
>>682943449Do you like to go fast while crawling up the boss' asshole feeling like you're playing a rythm game then having to suddenly stop everything and just do 1 2 3 and start spazzing the fuck out again and have the weird dead zone when you fuck up making you feel like you're crashing down from a speed high? If so, it's nice.
>>682941648It's entirely the devs' fault. They don't require you to learn shit to progress nor do they make any effort to teach you how to play beyond "hit the bad guy until he's dead :)". And no, it's not up to the players to search some third party shit to learn how to play the game, especially given my first point. If the devs don't make any effort to teach the players then the message it sends is that learning the game isn't important. The average skill level of the playerbase reflects that truth.
>>682943295honestly the bosses feel very bloated hp wise. especially in normal when they have only like half of their move set. wow, I'm going to see bomber man do his clothesline attack 200 times, neat I guess.

>>682944181the only thing you'd really have to look up is the opener to your job, being able to play your job at a base level should come naturally, you're pushing these buttons for dozens of hours, surely you can intuit how it players after a whileI picked up Viper and Picto and pretty much learned everything about them at 80 in about 10-15 mins of hitting a dummy
>>682944462healers not having a lot to do is a combat design issue and not a rotational issuescholars having nothing to do however is a scholar issue and neither a combat design nor a rotational issue
>>682944328I mean I'm kitted out with everything I can get currently, but I guess most people aren't.
>Job balance only meaningfully affects content that a minority of the playerbase plays (Savage and Ultimate).>Even when raid job balance was at its worst ever (Heavensward), all that was needed was for the devs to pay more attention and be more willing to give potency buffs to severe underperformers like PLD and MNK.>Instead of this, what we got instead was the complete dismantling of encounter design, job design, job uniqueness, elimination of anything resembling real utility, etc.>They've simplified everything to the point that the only thing that matters is the enrage DPS check, which now means a 3% DPS discrepancy can result in the playerbase abandoning a job completely in Savage.>This means that we lost a lot of what made the game fun and didn't even get perfect balance to make up for it.
>>682942674they gave us energy drain back at least
>>682944102>>682944467shaming players for being justifying being bad is a good thing, they should actively want to be betterif they are trying to do better and struggling, that's fine, at least they want to improve instead of asking for shit to be brought down to their level
>>682944462At this point they'd have to reduce the overall healing available or condense healing potencies into less buttons to give Sch or Ast more damaging spells again because they're running out of room for a typical cross hotbar setupI'm still in favor of a change like that though
>>682944467You can tell the casualshitter Roe didn't actually play Stormblood. Mist Dragon in The Burn was way harder than any of the garbage dungeons we've had in years. What this person actually wants is Endwalker's braindead difficulty, but also to push the narrative that Endwalker's braindead difficulty is just how the game has always been.
>>682944606>Job balance only meaningfully affects content that a minority of the playerbase playsBEHHHHHH WRONG pictomancer ripping aggro from tanks and black mage and summoner being weak in places where they were previously strong is a fucking enormous balance problem that affects everything except solo stuff
>>682944462yes, because they're struggling even with mashing 1
>>682944642>announcer calling out dead people
>>682944490What kind of tank would YOU like to see?
>>682943221I actually like it a lot. I think the biggest shortcoming of FF8 narratively in that situation is once the actual problem with using GF is made known to the party, they continue doing so with no consequences. I think it would be phenomenal if FF8 had two endings depending on the usage of GF or if Squall chose to forge more relationships with others to keep him grounded. >Ending A - Overuse GFSquall defeats the Sorceress but is unable to find his way back due to memory loss from GF influence. Rinoa goes mad and becomes Ultimecia, triggering a time-loop in which she forever searches for her knight, ultimately forgetting herself the same way he did. Causes the plot to repeat until ending B is achieved.>Ending B - Overcome GFSquall defeats the Sorceress without needing to rely entirely on GF. Enough of his sense of self and memories are preserved to guide him back to Rinoa in the promised place. Basically, Ending B is the canon ending already in the game. There's a ton of content in FF8 that is to the wayside as non-essential so it would make sense that Squall being detached from anything but the mission would lead to a loss of the self rather than him growing beyond being just the dedicated SeeD that he is who isn't interested in other people's problems.
Well anon? Can you refute her?
>>682944798the announcer and boss changing their dialogue to reflect if people died, got hit or all dodged is really cool
>>682944781We don't need to gut the entire job system to fix problems that can be addressed with potency changes or by increasing the aggro modifier on tank stances.

>>682944905>Just changing potency modifiers.You'd think they'd do that to quickly adjust selfish jobs that are only taken for their damage but they refuse to even do that. Instead they buff Warriors over and over for some reason.

>>682942725It'll still be called M5-8
>>682941970honestly i think they should go back and just make the damage on the gap closers a constant 100 potency, unaffected by buffs/debuffs. then you can still have the cool plunging sword move that deals damage without also feeling like you need to weave it into raid buffs.
>>682944852They don't even play the game.
>>682939981The B stand for Breedable
>>682945071PLD was doing like 25% less damage than other tanks at the start of Heavensward, they dropped a PLD buff in 3.2 that left PLD still doing 15% less damage than other tanks. PLD was not touched again until Stormblood.For some reason these devs hate fine-tuning potencies on jobs. Nowadays they seemingly prefer to just do full job redesigns that turn underperforming but flavorful jobs into generic garbage that does okay numbers.

That's why a few new ones pop up with sidequests after each area.>>682938059Wild West was such filler garbage agreed, but they didn't really think out a lot of the worldbuilding shit once you get past that part.

Endwalker was a clusterfuck in the last two-thirds, but the first third was still maintaining Shadowbringers afterglow peak so I'll give it the edge. As it stands:Shadowbringers > Endwalker > Heavensward > Dawntrail > Stormblood > Base ARRThis is not counting post-expac patch content, I usually finish all that shit in a day and it blends together too much. >>682941247More to the point I was already thinking about what sex position to commission for my character and Yaana when she invited us to her place

>>682945313No retard, you don't understand. The devs think that PLD should do less damage than the other tanks because it has Hallowed Ground, which is the strongest immunity of all the tanks. Right? RIGHT?!

What's a class from any of the previous Final Fantasy game (including side games like tactics) you'd legit like to play no matter how bullshit it'd be?
Macchi simultaneously wants the game to be braindead but also gets really mad about AFK Limsa idlers who don't do any combat content and constantly demand the game become more braindead. The mind of /xivg/ers is inscrutable.
>>682942103DRK lost like 4 ogcd's from the Blood Weapon merge and gap closer nerf. I think I'll switch to WAR for my static because it has like 4 gap closers that do damage.

>>682942725You already look extremely retarded and new right now because the whole community naming scheme for raid floors started with exactly that scenario - Coil floors being named Turn 1-5 and being shortened to T1-T5, and then the second tier came out and was called "Second Coil of Bahamut Turn 1-4" and people still called them T6-T9.

>>682943006I've seen nothing but drama come out of XIV rp groups. It's always full of fujos and trannysues that lord over everyone because they "own" the group discord. It's worse because many of them share members with the dregs of Gposing who have a collective melty essentually once a day. If you're gonna do it, do it with your closest friends and ONLY them. Sucks but it's the only way you avoid some psycho taking things too seriously and gushing all over everyone about their IC love for fucking ishgardian cardboards cutouts or important NPC no.57.

And that was years ago, btw. During ShB. He's been doing it for years now.The "This is the reason why people play XIV" alongside modbeast images posts are probably him (or at least some of them are, he's well known for doing those kinds of posts in /xivg/).

With the line about Conde Petie millalas also sharing the "lali-ho" tradition of the First and living near the Iifa Tree, obviously being intended to stand in for FF9's own dwarves, I think they're going for the long haul that lalafells are only native to the Source and might be an Allagan creation to step in line with that waste vat fish sprouting lalafell hands from all the way back in HeavenswardTherefore my current theory is that both Garleans and Lalafell were human experimentation and resulted in two distinct new races that fulfill opposite ends of an intellectual spectrum>Garleans were vat grown from midlander hyurs, are completely incapable of magic, are supposed to be pretty physically hardy (but this doesn't mean much when normal humans and even beastmen can augment themselves with magic to higher levels), are extremely mechanically inclined by nature, can be forced to use magic as with Reapers and with entities possessing a Garlean body like Ascians, or a Garlean soul that's been touched by a primal like Zenos>Lalafell were vat grown from Elezen as the only other race with large pointed ears, are the Garleans' polar opposites as incredibly mathematically and magically inclined, physically frail compared to the other races but can do menial work in a pinch or push past it and become marauders and Warriors and shit, the Aloalo lalafells became the Dwarves of other shards

>>682946875Only one person in the party needs to do it.If you have literally no parses on record at all you're either not raiding or you're exclusively raiding with a group that has something to hide. First being far more common.With the latter, usually even wait paid ultimate purchases you can see it, some dude has an average parse score across the board of 11, plenty of parses, is trying to play the game but just fucking sucks, and then also has one single DSR clear with a purple parse.
>>682946931That's okay. Tanks being basically identical but with different particle effects is what FFXIV players like. Rune Fencer will be DRK with elemental particle effects and people will love it.

>>682947097DRK also completely took their anti-magic and greatsworder niche not that scythes were even useful for DRK, in practice it was a greatsworder too and runes (elemental damage applied + elemental damage resist) are useless in FFXIV's context

>>682946207I basically only RP with friends at this point, yeah, I just miss sometimes the continuity of a whole setting and the chance of meeting strangers. In NWN PWs you could just hang out IC and chance upon an encounter. People valued writing and ideas more over aesthetics, connections or popularity (although of course sometimes cliques existed anyway, albeit for different reasons).
>>682947182>Tanks being basically identical but with different particle effectsOne of my favorite parts of FFXIV threads is people totally unwilling to actually talk about the differences between tanks and how they play and instead they hyperfixate on shared skills. And now that I've pointed this out you are going to feign getting pissed and go on a tangent about how they're completely the same and outright ignore the ways in which they are tangibly and mechanically different, and you are going to prove my point, and I am going to pull up one of my fat folds and scratch underneath it and laugh.

>>682947550>Honestly RUN might be...I accidentally a word
>>682946875I think only like 3-5 of my clears in any extreme aren't logged because there's always SOMEBODY livelogging in NA PF. This isn't Stormblood anymore, where it was a pain in the ass to upload logs: it's pretty automatic.If you have zero clears on FFLogs and I have to check your lodestone to see if you play the game outside of casually, then that begs the question why you're hiding your clears of actual content. Every person I've spoken to with hidden logs either has something to hide or didn't know that the general in-game culture is that hiding your logs looks very suspicious and unhides them. Show me your shitty median, I'm not gonna give a fuck if you're grey or pink. Clear's a clear.
>>682941786I just want to cry when I fuck up and everyone suffers because of me as a tank. Same with being a healer. It's why I mainly do DPS, I don't have to feel guilty when I fail. Nobody cares and the healer just ignores me.
>>682943295The major difference is that savage is full of body check / towers / limit cut, there is none of that in the normal raids and they're pretty easy I don't know what this guy is smoking

>>682944102XIV forums are weird beast, it's some weird hybrid of what forum discourse used to be like before the dark ages of the internet (aka not a hug-gulag hypermoderated by turbo leftist staff) and modern 20's brainrot.
>>682947802It really isn't, not if you actively participate in end game discussions. It's perfectly fine to be casual, and if you simply don't do Expert (optional end game content) and stay in island Sanctuary or w/e then no one will be checking your logs/lodestone.No one will listen to you talk about thermodynamics if you're a college dropout.
Anyone else forget about the existence of the Unending Codex? That's okay, so did the dev team.
>>682948138Probably already working on one of the two unknown projects CS3 is developing.

>>682948384>before the dark ages of the internet (aka not a hug-gulag hypermoderated by turbo leftist staff) lmfao this is an incredibly kind portrayal of old internet forums, basically nothing has changed from then to now with insane discord mods and confusingly laid out forums/servers with loads of pointless subforums/channels that don't get used

im in the middle of ARR, someone give me more motivation to go through this. atm i'm really not seeing why this game is so popular. it's not even fun as an MMO, nobody talks and you cant even do quests with anyone.
They made Picto fun and people are fine with it being a bit goofy so I want the next ranged job to be Gambler. You throw dice and darts and cards at the enemy and do shit like bonk the enemy with a roulette table.

>>682948461They'd probably defer to Mystic Knight for stronger job flavor than RUN, the fact that RUN itself is a Mystic Knight expy, and that something like "Fire Stance" can be easily accomplished by both Ignis and Fire III Sword. To this day I think the only reason they didn't use Mystic Knight in FFXI was they already thought they were being super original in giving its aesthetic to Blue Mage instead years prior.
>>682948612>it's not even fun as an MMO, nobody talks and you cant even do quests with anyone.If that's what you want out of an MMO, it's not the MMO you're looking for. Move along.
>>682948437Pretty much. If you're going to discuss endgame or high-end, I want some fucking proof you play the game. I'm not taking Timmy Alliance Raid's opinions seriously on the game when he's all greens with maybe a blue outside of extremes and you can rip all 90+ in that shit if you even REMOTELY try to engage with the game on any job. My bar isn't 'you HAVE to be purple+ or I am ignoring you :)', its 'are you even trying to engage with the game whatsoever?'Logs in general are a meme in anything serious anyways. Ultimate logs are 90% KT dependent and knowing how to manage downtime. Unless you're a terminal grey it doesn't really matter, and even then this is a video game that is very easy to improve at over time. The better and better you get, the less and less likely it is you will have bad logs outside of pulls where either you fucked up or there were wicked PF assassins.
>>682948883what kind of mmo is it then? what's the appeal?
>>682949064People like the story, they like the dress-up/RP/ERP, they like the endgame raiding.
