I was bored and checked FFXIV's twitter and they haven't said a peep about Wuk Lamat in any of their posts since July 4th.
So which tanks are doing well in DT? DRK by the metrics is doing bad, but the Torcleave combo really helps the class identity as a badass swordsman.
>>683706721GNB is taking a big fat dump over the rest.
>>683706721WAR is best

>>683706695>nisi mechanicShe's gonna rape PF
>>683706529You're playing an MMO. That's where you went wrong. The game is specifically designed to make you feel like the lone wandering badass in cutscenes to mask the fact you're walking around doing mindless fucking chores.
>>683706856>The game is specifically designed to make you feel like the lone wandering badass in cutscenesWho's gonna tell him?
>>683706529Over/under on poochie Lamat getting shoved into the Lyse box after DT ends?
ENOUGH
>>683706992She's done.They aren't even using her in any marketing anymore when at the beginning they were trying.
>>683706794The new Continuation combo looks great
Zepla will stream the final dungeon and SPEEEEN later today
>lalafell are children because they look like children>I am a woman because I look like a womanwhy can't I just selectively choose one to be true and the other to be false?
SAM was the most braindead melee for quite a while and still at the top for most of that time. Difficulty was never the factor. It's about how selfish it is and how much utility it has. As per Yoshi. VPR is the glass cannon melee, as such it should be at the top of melees. Stop fooling yourself thinking SAM requires skill.
>>683706856Boy that sure would be nice, wouldn't it? Anyway Wuk wants to talk about peace and happiness
>>683707115You don't look like a woman albeit
When does the story get good? I'm halfway through Shadowbringers and am sick of this shit
>>683707036you will never convince me anyone, devs including, bothered to remember these fucking names
>>683706992There is a good chance they are slashing and burning the .1 patch right now. She wont live past a few patches at most, there is no way people put up a whole year of Wuk pandering.

>>683707556WOW!You're so amazing and cool and pretty!
How do you think the scrapped Thancred + Urianger vs WoL fight must have gone? I'm imagining a phase like>Urianger standing at the edge of the arena.>Charging up a big spell so you have to dps check him before he gets a gigantic Death spell on the party.>Thancred, meanwhile, is in stealth mode also bordering the arena, but you can't see where.>Have to dodge Thancred's surprise attacks as you try to whittle down Urianger in time to not get oneshot.
>>683707332>WoL leads the steppe tribes to Tural to conquer itI'll forgive 7.0 if this happens
>>683706529>Where did it go so horribly wrong?Inception. FF11 couldn't do it. 14 didn't come close. If you come for the king you need to kill him. Why would I play a second rate MMORPG when I can play the best one? Anyone who plays 14 is a blatant contrarian or a ERP'er with specific tastes (less shameful than playing it for the "gameplay").
as one of the oldest jobs, where does DRG fit among the melees now? Its not the selfish dps, or the utility dps, is it the mob clearing dps now?
>>683707036If you can read German and not want to kill yourself you should be able to read the Incan-y names given.
>>683707120VPR is doing pretty much the same damage though. SAM only wins in buff pad because VPR does more sustained damage over time. Funny that SAM used to be the sustained damage melee until ShB turned it into Burst: The Job.
>>683707801Fuck Inca and fuck you
>>683707842Ohhh ja das ist der poopenfarten.
>>683707467tacos!
>THERE'S GONNA BE A RIFT IN THE SCIONS>the "rift" consists of Thancred and Urianger making you take a slight detour in the first dungeonNot enough people are calling out Yoshida for this shit. Honestly a lot of Dawntrail's story failures are getting a pass because Wuk Lamat is so hated she even dominates bitching.
>>683707231I picked this game up to play with friends and never thought much of the story.I thought it was pretty telling when they fondly describe HW when its writer produced nonsense like XVI. Assuming the SHB writer is doing XVII, I think it'll be panned the same way by people outside the MMO bubble, just with more women defending it.
>>683706529Christ, have they forced you to simp for any character this hard before? I don't remember SB dialogue options much but I don't think you had to suck Lyse off even half as much.

>>683708036You can never tell Wuk off, not once. Even if you refuse to call her Lamaty'i the game just tells you that you actually do want to say it but you're shy. Kill yourself, Wuktroon.
>>683708036>only 75%NOT NEARLY ENOUGH, honestly I hope they bring her back as an evil character that you can torture and kill in the next xpac. I have never been more annoyed by a character in a video game before.

It's not even the first time NPCs have acted weirdly about something you said, I remember in Bozja Cid freaks the fuck out and tells you that was in poor taste when you make an errand boy joke in Zadnor, the same guy that said YOU'RE TOO BLOODY USEFUL in the Praetorium.

Based on that recent interview with Yoshida where he basically says they're in discussion on how to progress past level 100, I get the feeling they have no idea what to do and he said the 8.0 rework just to placate peopleand whatever they do release will probably be really half baked and somehow even less interesting than what we already have
Can someone explain to me the mentality of people basking in the fact that our character is relegated to background extra status? I'm no hero in real life but I love playing the hero in videogames but more than a few people seem to get off on being a faceless nobody in fantasy games and I never understood it.

Dawntrail has taken over Shadowbringers as my favorite slice of storytelling in Final Fantasy XIV. Wuk Lamat’s journey, from its early sense of adventure and optimism to its second half full of sadness and existential dread, is the complete package. It’s a well-told, concise, and earnest story that avoids all the pitfalls I was worried about and took me to places I was not emotionally prepared for. I could actually see myself replaying Dawntrail in its entirety just to pore back over this adventure and look for missed details and re-experience the highs and lows. That’s a first for me, nearly a thousand hours in.

DRK is literally unplayable, what the FUCK did they do to this job
>>683710813>>683710938>>683711003Wuk Lamat is a strong presence, comparable to the likes of Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) or Estelle Bright (Legend of Heroes) with her infectious, optimistic energy and hidden ferocity. Her story isn’t just about becoming a king in a moment of political turmoil. Geopolitics are the easy part, and lord knows Final Fantasy XIV has more than exhausted its share of aristocratic melodrama. Instead we’re treated to a story about building community through understanding across disparate cultural contexts. We follow Wuk as she stops at each major region, not just to solve a problem and check items off a list, but to learn about her people and how each group contributes to the identity of Tural.Dawntrail’s greatest strength is how it presents a thematic core, builds the story around that core, and escalates the stakes and conflicts to absurd levels. As Lamat’s journey progresses and she learns valuable lessons, the game sets up for those lessons to be directly and cruelly challenged in its second half. The story has the simplicity of a babyface chasing a championship in a pro wrestling storyline, but with the intelligence and confidence to throw everything back in the new champion’s face after the big win. After all, once you win the title, you have to defend it.And if you’re a Final Fantasy IX fan, the back half of the story deliberately weaponizes your nostalgia for that game (and assumed enthusiasm for the long-rumored remake). We won’t get into spoilers here, but it’s done in a way that’s deeply fascinating — when it isn’t mortifying.

>>683706695Watch the guidefaggots try to push "tanks invuln hearts in the middle, healers spam heal them after invuln wears off" or some stupid shit. DRKs can get fucked though lol
>>683708426It's even worse than that>after a lot of soul searching and growing from our shallow as fuck adventures, I've decided I'm going to...do the same thing I was already planning on doing from the start! I think Wuk Lamat is one of the first characters I've seen that actually goes through a concave character arc. She somehow undevelops only to end up right where she started and we all have to pretend that represents growth.
>Runar cuck spammer is an UNIRONIC brown /dbs/ schizoidWhat could go so wrong in a mans life that he obsesses over BBC so much?
>>683711749When I respond to these posts that are obviously copypasted from elsewhere I don't necessarily respond to the anon directly, but at the content of the text. I know the actual author is not here. I'm still gonna say it's a horrible take.

>>683711930You just didn't get it. Instead of performatively saying she loves her people and culture, she can now say it for real. I was almost moved to tears.

>>683712242would Alisaie say this?
>>683712134>he knows the names of Turali zonesOnly barely since I was grinding out Hunts for the adamantoise. You've Urkelponcho, Kazakstan'mehameha, and My Shaaalona.
>>683712075I clapped when she said this
>>683712030"Halt, invincible hero!"
>>683711904Nah that shit guaranteed to be a damage down and probably has some anti-cheese built in. Also you probs need everyone to take the correct amount of hearts from towers.
>>683712341Not the Alisaie I know, that's not the Alisaie I know at all. She only simps for the Wol, not some fucking furfaggot character
>>683712469Yeah, def especially since I've seen datamined R2S stuff, and there's a new heart debuff type with 4 total hearts instead
Why would Alphinaud not side with Koana?

How come absolutely none of the decisions you make ever matter for anything, surely it's possible to have the story fork at least a little bit for a short amount of time until it merges again..................,......,.,....,..,.,.,.....,..
>>683708657>Koana wants to modernize the country, for which he has been studying in Sharlayan for years.>Zoraal Ja wants to prove himself as a leader, for which he has been hunting down threats and shoring up the defenses for years.>Bakool Ja Ja has a terrible past that is deeply traumatic, and wants to become Dawnservant to put an end to it and prove all his people's sacrifices weren't for nothing.>The first one is slightly misguided, and the second and third ones are VERY misguided, but even then they try to do something about the people of Tural.>Wuk Lamat has never done anything at all, not even just as a princess, but as a neighbour.
>>683712647Because she's retarded.
Wuk Lamat will be XIV's rep in the new Dissidia.
mfw the game you absolutely loathe and despise finally goes up in flames from its own hubris
people still play this dead game?
>>683711241When Estelle tried to act like Wuk, the villains laughed and told her to fuck off.
This is clearly a FutaGOD, althougheverbeit.
i thought this game was dead, people still play it?
>>683706529Tranny game
>>683712469I know it won't be, but it would be really cool if you could play the heart stuff fast and loose and just wing itBut I imagine it'll be part of a predetermined macro-able strat that's decided before the fight even starts
>>683712553>yfw kiting tethered hearts and if you take too many hearts you explode charming everyone
Fuck you Tafuku, futa is still gay
>>683707231Literally quit now.If you're that far in and think the story's shit, then you're never gonna find anything good. Literally wasting money.
>>683712475remember when Alisaie absolutely went off on Ryne for being slightly mopey after the whole Innocence bullshit?now Alisaie has no backbone whatsoever, she talks like every other scion and has no conflict
>>683706856The only time I have felt like an adventurer in this game was when I was doing ARR optional dungeons, variants, and Eureka. The MSQ's obsession with WoL being a frickin adventurer who lives to go on adventures since the Azem reveal has always felt strange to me. Even in Dawntrail, the adventuring expansion that advertises itself as an adventure the WoL feels more like a muscle for hire than a explorer. The Texas zone was the only time the WoL ever wandered anywhere because of his own curiosity instead of finding a way to deal with the current crisis.
>>683707231it gets good for 10 hours after 100 more hours then it gets shit again for 30 hours
Is it morally wrong to rape an Endless?
>>683712341She didn't even care when we almost got smoked during the train shit and she was witness to it. This isn't Alisaie in the slightest. Shit, her brother quite literally was asked to explain something basic for the retards in the room that he definitly knows and he went "I don't think i will :) " all so wuk could do it instead.
>>683712873the knockback towers in M3 were just made for tether bullshit, i can sense it.
>the way modded bodies look with the new shadersbros i literally cant play without getting hard anymore
>>683712689Wuk is the kid that blew off his science project until the day before it was due and then begged his parents to do it for him since "i'll get an F otherwise"
>>683712427Yeah, that's her battle. The one time it makes sense for her to fight it herself.
>>683712931>The only time I have felt like an adventurer in this game was when I was doing ARR optional dungeonsi wish they'd bring back side dungeons or stories in the same veinthe hardmode dungeons being the aftermath of effectively leaving power vacuums in areas were pretty cool
>>683713036>Wuk is the kid that blew off his science project until the day before it was due and then begged his parents to do itEven worse, he used his parents' money/status to hire a nuclear physicist to do it for him.
>>683713023I wish they'd hurry up and release. I don't like to fuck around with testing versions. What is the hold up anyway? My friend says it's basically stable as is.
>>683712931It's been said many times before but I'll say it again here, Estinien had the adventure in Dawntrail that we, the Wol was supposed to have. Just going where the wind took him, here one moment gone the next, on his own and showing up when needed but most of all having an adventure.Instead we got handcuffed to a Main character who was ugly to look at, ugly to listen to, and ugly to have to endure through.
>Fans made disparaging remarks about comments criticizing the writing style of the MSQ of Dawntrail, which was completely directed by lead writer Daichi Hiroi. With regard to reading the fan criticisms, Hiroi stated that it was "like putting [his] face next to an anus and breathing deeply."

>>683713146He did say this. I was the interviewer.
>>683713108they're waiting for savage release just in case anything gets fucked, wouldn't want to push out a stable build only for it to get fucked 3 days later
>>683713146Source? Because that's hilarious
>>683713108something with animations and also the advanced editor stuff regarding new shader colorsetsguy working on it is autistic as fuck and refuses to release it until EVERYTHING is in a complete state, rather than releasing parts of it at a time
>>683713023Same bro, I kinda feel fucking dirty but I posed my character recently and holy fuck my dick.>>683713108The people working on it are autistic as fuck and it seems theres some talk about waiting for savage release as well.
>>683712931Yeah, for as much as this game goes on and on about adventure you spend 90% of the playtime being completely railroaded.
>>683713146Shame that's his fetish so it's not a punishment really
>>683713280i like how the new shaders basically made it so you have the "photoshopped character" look without needing to actually photoshop it
>>683712925She went off on Ryne for the blind optimist "Don't worry WoL, everything will work out and you'll be fine" comment with zero basis on anything they had uncovered so far
>>683707673I imagine something similar to the Thaliak/Nymeia fight in the Twelve ARs where you have Urianger constantly drawing AST cards to slap the party (or WoL if it's a solo duty) with status effects while Thancred swaps between using GNB techniques to push you around into Urianger's attacks and stealth techniques to force you to dodge damage phases while Urianger fucks with your ability to move or see what's going on.
>>683713103I love Hullbreaker Isle because going to a deserted island that's difficult to land on to retrieve a treasure from a legendary pirate ship is exactly the kind of shit we should have been doing in Dawntrail for the thrill of it.
>>683710575People who want low stakes in XIV are idiots playing the wrong game. They would be alot happier playing everquest, original WoW, or FFXI but they won't give up their house or the giant tit erp parties.
>>683710129https://youtu.be/8fE6Dorta7o
>>683706818Don't forget heart rampant.
>>683713467Yeah man constantly escalating stakes is CERTAINLY a great fucking way to keep your continually going live-service alive, great fucking intuition
>>683713464in an alternate universe retard fanfiction we ended up in the new world because estinien heard some retard rumor about treasure and the whole thing was some retard goofy adventure with himcould still leave room for the golden city and alexandria in the last half with that too
>>683711367not enforceable, there are already forks to use loli mods and hwatnot without mare worry
>>683713428Yeah, that was actually something that would mean she'd rip into Wuk Lamat even more. I think her exact words towards Ryne was "Making promises you can't keep is just a cruel lie". Meanwhile,>Oh my Twelve Wuk, you are the greatest person I have ever met, we love you so much, please you HAVE to take over the leadership position we have kept empty since Minfilia's death, we will stop travelling around and helping people across the world and just become Tural's secret police that ensures no one in this world can doubt you are the greatest and best thing to ever happen to us sundered beings.
>>683712931They massively dropped the ball with DT I think, besides just the story>it's a new adventure, you (the Adventurer (TM)) can go to any zone in any order, but beware the monsters in some parts might be difficult!>also it's level scaled, so new players don't have to go through the whole massively long EW story>you can find dungeons by yourself; you don't need the story to unlock them for you>MSQ is there, but it's not mandatory>really beef up overworld gameplay mechanics to accommodate the aboveInstead we got the exact same as before, but now it's also a shit story
>>683713642dragon ball is the most popular anime franchise in the world
>>683713672All you needed was Golden City as the call to adventure and heading there with Krile, Estinien, and G'raha (so he can finally stop begging for "that one adventure with us")Instead we got pokemon gym badges with a trannyfurry
>>683713382Yeah I thought about that as well. I'm a very lazy fucker so I just use the default Bibo+ and it already looks way better, especially hands and feet. My highlander looks even hotter.
>>683713086seems to be the /dbs/pic motto to bitch about her taking spotlight in places where it actually makes sense for her to
>>683708912God forbid people try to have fun within the meager customisation still available. Imagine if people started bitching at Black Mages for running whatever is the current "less optimal" stat between SpS or Crit/DHit.
>>683713773Yeah that would have been the best cast for itwe COULD have had a lot of nice little character moments with krile too, give her more of an opportunity to grow and shineI guess erenville would be fine as a guide if he's really needed but, he'd need a lot more character development done by someone else
>Giving brown spic (You)skek
>>683713146god please be real i would kill for this to be real. the writer saying out and out "my critics are retards" would be the most based response ever written by human hands
>>683713945The worst part is that crit isn't even optimal yet. We have so few stats that right now dh/det have the edge and speed isn't completely outscaled.
>>683713467>FFXI>low stakes
>>683713738Dragon Ball is ground zero for not knowing where to stop scaling, up to and including cucking Gohan out of a passed torch to keep stroking Goku
>>683708912post the tanks logs kek. aether?
>>683714143>literally just some dream
>>683712268she needed the money
>apparently npcs have a bunch of customizations like colors, eye styles, face shape,etc>applied like player stuff in the way other generic npcs are, rather than unique npcs like the scions>we're probably getting that stuff as new player customization soon
>>683713697I've actually been thinking about this after all the criticisms of how the exactly same formula of split starting zone > dungeon > fourth zone > trial, etc. has become stale, predictable and even limiting for the story. I think it would be much better if DT had let you go in any order you want to any zones you want. You just have to get a bunch of trials done, right? So just let the player do them in whatever order, and place the Valigarmanda trial at the very end of them when your level is actually sure to be up to it because you've done them all, no matter what order.
>>683714224Guess again fag, that stuff has been sitting around since shadowbringers
>>683713738dbz is the most vapid slop past buu saga and arguably even cell saga, terrible fucking analogy
>>683709345With everyone I know who plays (and loves) this game all have the same things in common:>don't watch or read anything, if they do its seasonal shonen anime>only games they ever played before it were ones with zero, minimal, or badly written stories, especially multiplayer stuff like competitive shooters>all played some other MMO before hopping over to XIVIn other words, the common pattern I've seen is that everyone who praises XIV's story has never experienced half-decent stories before, or at least not in a very long time.
>>683714224Are you talking about the Trust dungeons?
>still no mod where there's dandruff flakes on hairwhen will someone make a dandruff mod for my maliddie's hair
xbalyavtyeokayokay so, i bought Dawntrail. Then i bought 90lvl chatacter leveling skip. And then i ve bought MSQ skip, for 22 euro each. that was very jew of them but oh well. Need to play the game now.
JOBku gets one-shot by Wuk Lamat btw
what a waste of a setting
>>683713576AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGH!MY EXPANSION, MY EXPANSION IS SHIT.EMET YOU RAT, YOU WEREN'T TELLING ME COOL PLACES TO EXPLORE, YOU WERE GIVING ME THE OL' SHITTY EXPANSION.HOW COULD GIVE ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE CONVOCATION THE OL' SHITTY EXPANSION?
>>683714001Tying Erenville to Tural was...a choice, but it could've worked like you said. I personally would've dropped the whole "was ackshully a native Turali and childhood friends with the trannyfurry princess" thing and just said he's spent enough time in Tural grabbing shit as a gleaner to pick up some of the local culture. That way he could work as a guide but still be enough of an outsider that you need to interact with the locals instead of being led around by the nose by him. He was actually pretty fun in the Texas segment using his Gleaner knowledge to fuck with the bandits, so I could see them using that sort of thing as well as his dumb Gleaner gadgets to help us track down weird monsters like he did with Valigamandara in a better version of DT.
>>683714293no? its brand new stuff exclusively in solution 9/alexandria>>683714357npcs added in dawntrail, should have specified specifcially in solution 9 I should make a gallery when my autism flares up but, there's a TON of new thingsthe most obvious one is the neon colors for eyes and hairs but also there's some new facesone example is the brown tomboy from raid, she has an entirely unique face shape but its applied in the same way under the hood as player faces are
>>683714438i can't self insert unless my character has bad dandruff

>>683714347most ffxiv players before the wownigggertranny exodus were newcomers to the MMO genre and prior Final Fantasy fans. the game was regarded as babies first mmo for that reason. fag.
>>683711889That's pretty retarded. Wuk's appearance isn't what makes the story shit.
I wish I was creative enough to write a YABBA DABBA DOO post about yawnfail
>>683706818She has a nisi mechanic???
>>683714347This actually 100% explains everything in that context holy shit they literally don't know what "good story" even is kek

>>683714561rich coming from an MMO dickrider
>>683713694Honestly the funniest thing they could do in the patch MSQ will be to have Wuk form a Not-crystal braves police force and just watch as the forums devolve into phrases like "SLOPPY WRITING" or some variations of Ilberd memes. Even better if it's Alphys idea so they can pretend Wuk can't be blamed in the end for her bad picks
>>683714347>only games they ever played before it were ones with zero, minimal, or badly written storiesthere are games with good stories? could you list some examples?video game writing is where the rejects go

>>683714612shamelessly stolen from another posterEhh? Tentoawa...and Wuk Lamat?! What are you two doing together?! EHHH?! You say you've found a new use for the Cradle of the Sleepless?!You're going to use it to constantly sap my strength and my power and give it all to Wuk Lamat so SHE can become the strongest warrior on the planet?That I will never ever wake up again and be BEDRIDDEN for the rest of my life as Wuk Lamat's permanent aether battery bitch?!You're telling me to leave all my burdens, and my life, with Wuk Lamat FOREVER while she goes on galvanting with the scions and the rest of my friends in MY PLACE?!That not only will I be in a permanent coma but the only sustenance I will receieve in my deprived state will be Wuk Lamat's excrement from all the meals she hunts from all the places she'll visit that I will NEVER EVER see again with my own eyes?!That eventually as time passes and I become more decrepit from constant sleep and only subsiding on Wuk Lamat's adventurous poopoo, I will also be forgotten by history and in my place Wuk Lamat will be known as the saviour of the planet AND the true warrior of light?!That when I DIE from malnutrition I'll be resurrected with a soul regulator with unlimited soul credits to ensure that I can never pass away too soon to end such torment?!WHAT MORE CAN I SAY EXCEPT YABBA DABBA DOOOOOOOOO
>>683714271Since they are keeping the cap at 100, I hope they mix up stuff for next expansion.They could cut one or two normal zones to have a field operation on release.

DBS posting is concrete evidence of what happens when the jannies don't do their fucking jobs and let shit fester for yearsThey should have their pay docked for such an abysmal failure
>>683713642I agree.>>683714143XI is full of low stakes shit and your character is a useless fuck who can't kill a lizard in the desert without 5 other people around. In XIV you are the chosen one soloing rock monsters and void sent within hours and have a mexican fanfic DBZ fight scene in the opening 10 minutes against masked evil wizard man.
>>683714589Her appearance doesn't help it either, in fact it's a detriment when you start to really think about it because she's wearing tribal clothing yet is completely unaware of the tribes and customs outside the Palace so much so we, the newcomers to the New World are the ones who are mentoring and guiding her. You might ask "What difference does appearance make"A lot, look at Koana he's wearing Eorzean/ Sharlayan clothing that immediately marks him as apart from his home.Look at Zuraal, he looks like a some strong tribal warrior with the headpiece to match.Wuk Lamat is a sheltered princess yet looks like a wandering traveller. It makes no sense when you begin to think about the logic of it. Even the fact she can fight as a Warrior, who trained her? Was it her adopted father Garool Ja Ja? Because he was a Viper, Zarool Ja was also a Viper. So who trained Wuk Lamat as a Warrior, was that ever explained or handwaved away,>Don't question it. I just want some good fucking writing to explain what needs explaining and make it interesting rather than having us assume things that are important character traits as to why she can go from being kidnapped by low level bandits to then fighting God slaying machines.
>>683715000If you told him transwoman penises were really hard and difficult to beat off then Goku would absolutely end up saying this.

>>683713467Anon the first main villain of XI declares a global genocide of several races.The first expansion features two dudes who want to wipe out all mortal life so they can ascend to Heaven.The second expansion is about the literal God of Death wanting to kill everything.The third is about two Gods who want to fight, even though it would nuke an entire continent.And the fourth is about a lady who wants to erase your entire timeline because God decided she liked your timeline more than the lady's.XI was never 'low stakes'

>>683715317I've never played an MMO before XIV, and only played it because of everyone telling me how great and fun and amazing it is. Only to get hit with the most agonizingly boring, slow, and worst written piece of media I have ever experienced.
>>683715243Why are you pretending you know anything about FFXI?

>>683714737Kekaroo! Gokek would say this.
>>683715713So instead of using Mage's Ballad after Wander's Minuet I should instead use Army's Paeon and save Ballad for last? Isn't Paeon the cooldown phase?

Wha… Wuk Lamat?! Y-You came to my room?! I am so honored. Wait, what’s this you’re saying? You’ve imprisoned my friends and beloved companions?! You’re planning to-to skin them ALIVE?! You want to eat their internal organs as they’re still alive, absorbing their aether and their capabilities, so that you become the absolute most powerful being in existence?! And you want MY HELP?! You say you’re going to be feasting on the brains and hearts of my fellow Scions, keeping them alive for as long as you’re able by forcing me to heal them, heedless of any tears I might shed in the process?! You will send letters to all of our other past friends and allies who have ever respected and supported us, telling them the Scions turned evil and tried to overtake you, and you want ME to legitimize you by lending you MY voice and signature and confirming that I helped in murdering the people I view as close as family?! You say that you will ruin their legacies and reputations so that you can get away with it?! And once you’re done, you will use the key of Azem that you stole from WoL, it’s legitimate owner, to go to the First and hunt down Ryne, the one Scion you can’t devour already?! And once you have destroyed everything we have ever fought and stood for, you will finish off by eating me as well, finishing your ascension into godhood?!THAT IS SUCH A GREAT IDEA, LAMATY’I, WOOOOOOOO

>>683715531People praise the HW story because HW came out at a time that stories in the Final Fantasy franchise were at their absolute nadir, so HW being of acceptable quality felt like a breath of fresh air, and it's better than ARR as well.Shadowbringers was a bit better than Heavensward and had a memorable main villain, so people were happy about that. During Shadowbringers a huge number of WoW players who had never played a game with a coherent narrative joined FFXIV and convinced themselves this was an amazing tale that everyone needed to experience. Basically FFXIV's story, despite being just mediocre anime shit with horrible pacing, gets treated as a masterpiece because most FFXIV players come from either the completely demoralised and desperate Final Fantasy fandom, or from online games with zero coherent narrative, so the standards are extremely low.

People had such high expectations after SHB and EW. I think that's one of the main reasons everyone's so bummed about DT. No matter what you think about DT, nobody who's being honest would deny that it's disappointing.

Why did Wade have to do it?Why did a chambermaid notice that Annabella had moved all her belongings out of the castle a week beforehand and notified the Duke of this, but the Undying were apparently unaware?Why didn't they rescue Clive?Why did Ultima just so happen to be wearing the exact same cloak Joshua would be wearing in the future?Where did Joshua hear Ultima's name in the first place? The Undying said they had no idea about him until Joshua ordered them to investigate.Why does Primogenesis randomly disappear at times?Why did Joshua continue killing himself to keep Ultima in his chest even when he was well aware that Ultima was still just floating out there doing whatever the fuck he wanted anyway?Why do major characters including the main heroine have their conclusions hidden in sidequests while you spend 6 hours a piece on Martha, the Dame, and L'ubor?Why did Sanbreque never notice the giant tidal wave frozen in time about a mile up the shoreline from their capitol city, or why did they never investigate it?Why did Ultima spend so much time driving Sanbreque to world conquest only for it to amount to nothing at all and not aid in his plan in any way because he already had control of all the world's nations?How does anyone think this story was acceptable?
>>6837175937.1 is probably already written and too late to rewrite. Also, Wuk'Lamat has a lingering plot thread with Ja Ja Jr and S9 which you can bet will end up relevantI don't exactly remember, at what point did they start writing out Lyse out of a main role in earnest?

>>683718042I skipped it (because the msq made me mad)
all this talk about poochie lamat and nobodys talking about how the story has to constantly grind to a halt so we can have another diatribe about foreign culture and diverse viewpoints and blah blah blah. at its worse it gets to be borderline kingdom hearts tier about it, like any minute now im gonna have to wield a penblade and fight the cultureless with the power of diversity.
>>683717812XV sucks dick and XVI is still even worse. It's an awful game dude. Even if you ignore the retarded hole filled story the gameplay doesn't give you anything to hang onto either. It's completely shallow. Releasing between SoP and Rebirth really showcases how fucking bad the action combat is, let alone the lack of RPG mechanics.
>zodiark/sphene trance mind raped him this badAYO DIS NIGGA SEETHING FRFR
>>683717454I got tricked by the demo into playing this garbage thinking it'd be a cool story full of interesting characters and political intrigue. Instead I got a shallow non-RPG focused entirely on spectacle with a shonen slop story concealed by a false veil of maturity and grittiness, a game with non-existent difficulty and a protagonist that completes his character arc 30% of the way through the game and then becomes the WoL but with a gruff voice.
>>6837173751 false advertisement. the beach episode was actually a lie as in reality you had to babysit a 20 year old troon that apparently just discovered the world (what is a zipline?!?!?!?!?)2 infantile and inconsistent writing. reeks of DEI shit3 boring slop due to the aforementioned DEI, rubber bullets, power of diversity and acceptance4 half assed features. viper sucks dick and the 2 dye channel is a joke. tons of jarring low resolution armor despite a promised graphical update on armor textures5 horrendous pacing6 incredible amounts of padding to lengthen the msq7 trash va. plagued by inconsistencies too. some important cutscenes are unvoiced. some filler cutscenes are.8 too much soi in general and reddit tier shit like tacos xD9 sfeen, listen to me10 they promised a completely new story, yet it's full of badly made references to past expansions without any subtlety (hear feel think!!!!!!!!!)

>>683718150>and a protagonist that completes his character arc 30% of the way through the game and then becomes the WoL but with a gruff voice.It would be better if that was the case. In reality he becomes a preachy faggot who never stops finding a soapbox to climb up on. Even when he finally gets a chance to face his mother he stands there and cries and bitches at her about how mean she is while the literal faggot character drops in and heems the fuck out of her demon spawn kid without hesitation.

If people wanted harder content, why did HW almost kill the game?
>>683719065HW almost killed the game because there was a four month wait between 3.0 and 3.1, and then 3.1 released with only Thordan EX and the original Diadem. It had nothing to do with the Gordias difficulty. The problem with Gordias is that the difficulty destroyed statics and all the serious raiders transferred to Gilgamesh or Leviathan to play with each other. Stop getting your history from youtubers and you won't be confused.
FF7 Rebirth flopped because of a mix of exclusivity, dwindling interest in the FF7 IP (zoomers have no attachment to it), the episodic nature backfiring, and their idiotic decision to alienate FF7 boomers by introducing retarded kingdom hearts time-travel bullshit to the story.I would say it was still the best game in the Final Fantasy franchise in a LONG time. Square Enix still has a long way to go with learning how to design open world gameplay, but it was better than FF15's shitty open world, or FF16's "what if you had Xenoblade-style separate zone maps with NOTHING in them". I like the FF7R combat system, and it was nice to finally play a new FF game that actually had towns, inns, MP, distinct party members, the traditional FF spells and summons, etc.Unfortunately all the recent flops make me think SE is going to start making FFs on lower budgets going forward, and I fully expect them to fuck that up in some new way, aswell.
>>683719065HW almost killed the game because every facet of content even casual shit failed, raiding was fucked, diadem was reworked and fucked up every time, delayed patch, HW was just all types of fucked and is the biggest proof that the story does not carry this game
>>683711876The Tournament of Power broke them.
