FFxiv 8.0 will save gaming.
that's what they said about 7.0 and 6.0
nothing will save them after yawntrail. people go on about post-yawntrail being good but that's bullshit.
Speen blob will save gaming!
>>720341028I wonder if they realize just how much damage they did with Dawntrail. I had been subbed for years straight and cancelled after reupping only a single month (because the MSQ was so fucking painful I couldn't get through it in one)Have had absolutely no desire to go back since. That trailer for 8.0 better be fucking amazing and fanfests better reveal some insane shit. I'll probably buy 8.0 but that's their last chance when it comes to me.
Is sphene part of the WoL’s pussy pocket party now? Or did she get sidelined?
>>720341257even if the next xpac was good you'd still have to play through all of dawntrail msq and post-msq to get to it lol
>>720341537I hear Wuk Lmao gets hurt pretty bad in the latest patch, though
>>720341257They do and yet they don't have the resources to fix it, so you get stupid fucking responses from Yoshi-P like "I don't know if we can keep doing different cutscenes for different jobs" when people ask about class homogenization>>720341302Sidelined, they're memory holing all of 7.x. Erenville, Krile, Woke Lemutt and Sphene all fuck off at the end of 7.3. Expect more of the same next expac, because the best answer to a stale game trying to break out of being stale and failing is to double down on more of the same old shit
>>720341257OC and 7.3 were the last chance for 7.x for me, if 8.x ends up being shit I'll be sad but guess it'll be easier to move on
>>720342132>"I don't know if we can keep doing different cutscenes for different jobs" when people ask about class homogenizationIs he this disconnected or was he just not able to come up with anything better than that?I'm more interested in seeing if SE has woken up to the sorry state of their cow of cash and actually decides to put money into it but I'd honestly be shocked if this happened
DT greatly diminished my confidence in the xiv team, and the patches completely killed it. The current xiv team is incapable of improving the game, and even if they could, it would just be more soulless, sanitized slop like DT.
>>7203405648.0 has a lot to live up to, lotta talk comin from the yosherr lately>>720341158Sphene sexo
>>720342675>Press release talking about how they hired sensitivity people for the Tural cultures>Tural cultures are the most bland, sanitized, one-note shit in the entire game>Make a big deal about "native" voice actors>Except the fucking main character half of all the dialog
>>720342874>writing is shit no matter what language you play in
I want to see more more shard versions of the WoLMaybe even one that's fucked up and evil
Considering SE is operating like a failing western company from 5 years ago, I'm expecting 8.0 to have some LGBT pandering. Probably an openly gay character, but I could see them going full tranny considering how hard up for cash they are.
>>72034267516 was the last nail on the coffin, if they can't break out of their extremely rigid mold with a brand new game and a blank check, they just don't have what it takes anymore to innovate.CS3 is just irreparably fucked at their core and it comes from the top.
>>720342920>Finally break and switch to JP.>It doesn't actually helpI didn't know Smile played during Wuk's coronation because I hated her so much by that point I muted the entire thingI wish she was a single point failure, though because moving away from her would solve the problem but the problems were far more everpresent it's just REALLY HARD TO NOT FOCUS ON HER FOR SOME REASON
>>720342874>a cooking contest >so wuk can learn about the time her dad forced two bitter enemies to sit down and cook food together, thus putting an end to generations of animosity
>>720341604>Got blisters from swinging her axe
>>720342735Disregard this post. Talk about your experience with big roegadyn cocks instead like you should be
>>720343084>The contest pairs her up with the only contestant who actually likes her>The contest is officiated BY HER REAL FATHER
I'm still laughing about how badly DT fucked up almost a year later.I went into it not really expecting anything, just interested to see where they'd take things now they they supposedly wanted to wipe the slate clean. It's amazing they didn't write a boring story, they wrote one that made me angry at how bad it washttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02_IvxWc7Ys&list=RD02_IvxWc7Ys&start_radio=1&ab_channel=UviImagine listening to this during a fight you actually care about and not one you're doing out of obligation. Course then it ends with SPEEN and morphs into a really terrible song that's supposed to be uplifting but sounds like ass. Then they jumpscare you with Smile again just as a final "fuck you"
>>720340564this game will never be good again simply because they homogenized the classes too muchthey cannot add the complexity bad, however little there was its all gone now and if they ever try all the trannies and normies will throw a hissy fit
>>720342874The game's soul died once it was handed off entirely to kate and those that share her sensibilities.
>"A-and remember when the earring my parents left me with- remember when it was the key to the City of Gold? The portal they carried me through?">"Remember when *hic* I didn't actually have the authority to even use it? And I never would have had the authority to use it?">"Good ttttthing Galool Ja was there huh? Or we would have had to leave the entrance to Living Memory AGAIN!"
>>720343249The writing is shit even if you don't play it in English, CBU3 is dogshit now
come back to segas mmo
They had Krile react with horror at his ambition and he's like "Yeah I'm gonna conquer the planet" and all I could think of in the moment was "Ok, yeah, sure buddy"And this was back when he just had some bonegrinding savages and not a robot army, VTOL drone bikes, and airships
>>720340564>completely rework black mage so it plays like every other caster>but keep all of its moves that you literally never ever want to pressthe only thing that could save this game is to fire literally everyone involved in making it
I don't care.
>>720343318Genuinely stunned they're still on tutorial planet, generational fumble with NGS. If I'm playing PSO, I want fucking space ships.
Is there anything more neurotic than posting XIV threads on cooldown in some vain effort. Purposeless and sad. Goats bleating into the void circlejerking themselves because all the sane people left and unsubbed already.>>720342245>>720342735>>720341158The same people posting the same threads for almost 2 years. The truest kind of mental midget reject that somehow got filtered out of /vg/. Just sad......... lol...
>>720343296I meant more like how xiv used to feel like a japanese game. Cute girls with skirts so short, you'd get a panty shot at the slightest breeze. Social commentary born from living in a homogeneous country (borders good, cultural melting pot bad). Shit like that.
>>720343620pantyshots? is that what you like? this is 2025 anon
>>720340564Is it going to do anything about this problem, pic is from the instructions for monhun fags wanting to do the new collab
>>720341537Yeah it's going to be a permanent stain on the game going forwardThe patches are good though
>>72034331814 might be mismanaged to shit, but at least it's not a NGS level disaster.
>>720343249>those that share her sensibilities.Which is Yoshi p himself, Kate is just a symptom of the directors own political beliefs
>>720343775holy fuck, SE is actually scamming monhun fags. They either suffer through hundreds of hours of msq, or they buy a skip and suffer through dozens of hours of the worst msq in the game's 10 year history. fucking kek
>>720343337It could have been an absolutely kino anticlimax, he becames king of tural and sends the army to eorzea only to have his every ship sunk by a horde of pirates with piles of actual naval combat experience who have been itching for any sort of fight after Garlemand got taken out
>>720342675It's grim that the mobile version looks more appealing than the "main" game atm.
>>720343775What the fuck?They have to spend hundreds of dollars on DT and skips or play the game for 1000+ hours for this?
>>720343948xiv had female characters designed for the male gaze right up to endwalker and its patches. yoshi doesn't push any agenda, he just makes sure the team is hitting deadlines.
honk shoo mimimimimiDouble the amount of weeklies
>>720344138>yoshi doesn't push any agendayour pet jap has always been a faggot
>>720344138He went into an interview and talked about how upset he was to see a mother shielding her child's eyes from a tranny
>>720344138>EWGender neutral outfits and crossdressing males
>Sub for a full month>Haven't played since finishing DT>Manage to catch up with the MSQ, do all 12 raids AND do the alliance raid within 2 days>Stuck wondering what to do now since I don't care about OCFuck. Why does this game have so little content. I can't believe people sub for a year at a time it's crazy. Glad I only subbed for a month.
>>720344204>>720344257Asian trannies are hot thoughbeit
>why aren't you having fun now that you've won and saved the reflections and their sundered inhabitants, Azem?
>>720344204>>720344257>>720344262I'll throw you a bone and say he could have been behind the push to start making gender locked glams wearable by the opposite gender. Besides that, the content of the game tells me didn't care if a designer wanted tits mcgee to have big tits, or if the writer wanted godbert to go on about how everyone should be armed. No. the game only started to feel toned down in that regard with DT when kate and co were given more control.
>>720344107They actually had the audacity to directly recommend you purchase a story skip if you read a little further down.>Please skip directly to Dawntrail, you'll love it!
>>720343318how is the endgame, grind and monetization? Do I have to no life the game or can I play every now and then?
>>720344795Suggesting a story skip to the hated expansion seems unwise, you would lose less customers from the full grindWhat they should have done was make it a level 50 fight and then made the extreme level 100Or even better do 2 monsters, 1 at 50 and 1 at 100
>>720344980It should be level 70 to match the current monhun collab.
>>720344816very active and chill because its cross platform between playstation, xbox, pc. it can be casual or hardcore up to you. monetization is f2p.
>>720345104Does the website for the new collab even mention the old one, if they changed it from step 1 start step 2 level 100 to step 1 start step 2 level 70 step 3 level 100 it would look a lot less daunting
So what will happen with mare and that shit? Did everyone just give up?No open source answer? Are modders this retarded or just greedy?
>>7203409796.0 was really good. It was 6.x that fucked everything up.
>>720345364Why bother just migrate to a better game
>>720345397There's nothing fucking wrong with 6.x except the lack of a side trial series seperate from the MSW trials.
>>720345364There's already 3 replacements that have been up for like 2 weeks+
>>720345364there's a few mare replacements. I think the biggest one has about 20k users now
>>720345463There's literally nothing right about 6.X
Give me a Void expansion. Hell, I'll take an expansion about Garlemald trying to unfuck themselves
>>720343084>contest is to teach the lesson about the Hrothgar and lizards cooking together to come to an understanding>it doesn't pair her with either of the two lizardsIt's basic shit like this that just baffles me.
>>720345619>>720345463What's wrong with 6.x is it made me think 7.0 would be Void-focused
>>720345696Yeah even before it got real bad and I actually kind of liked the expansion in the early parts that baffled me, even before I knew what the contest was for not pairing you with one of the actual antagonist competitors was so fucking weird. What was the point of the pairing
>>720345772They can't do a void expansion because they clearly highly value environmental variety, void all looks the same
>>720340564Only if they fire Kate otherwise the well is eternally poisoned.Quality will forever be at risk as long as they have a say.
>>720345854>void all looks the sameDomain of every voidsent looks different, that's like saying "Space looks all the same". They could have gotten away with absolutely ludicrous visual imagery, not at all dissimilar to what you see in Dohn Mheg or Ultima Thule. Absstract, or non-euclidean spaces, rooms and stairways that loop back on themselves to trap you, there's a lot they could do in the void, where death does not exist.
>>720344154
>>720345240>character models look EXACTLY like what people mod into ff14Holy shit, it's been PSOniggers all this time, NOT Second Life schizos?
Fire all americans desu
>>720342675thats because the original xiv team no longer works on the game, SE rearranged everyone competent onto slop projects and it really shows in DT
>>720346134Why the CH-53?
>>720345854They can choose to not make it all the same. The Void has an overabundance of astral aether, and there's three different astral elements. They could have a Wind Void zone of floating islands and condensed windstorms (green), a Fire Void zone that is one big volcano with a lot of verticality (orange), and a Lightning Void zone that maybe looks like Heritage Found (purple)
>>720340564It won't.
>>720346138that looks nothing like what modbeasts doits w*men from second life and vrchat, you can tell by all the piercings and tattoos
The post DT MSQ is weird. It's a complete retread and repeat of the themes and scenario of the Solution 9 section of the MSQ. But written by somebody who actually manages to not be a complete retard. However, it's also very truncated and so ends up feeling like a last minute attempt to band aid the MSQ.They tried so hard to give Wuk an actual moment to shine where she selflessly pushes herself past her breaking point, the way the character should have been, but in actuality she just hits a wall with her axe and falls over. It feels like a forced emergency attempt, but I guess whoever did the writing at least tried their best.
FUCK SHARD SLOPGIVE ME:>Orn Wild>East Shroud ground level>Paglth'an>Xelphatol>Hellsguard homeland>bottom of the Sea of Clouds>northern Vylbrand>the Pearl and Mazlaya>Coerthas Lowlands>South Silvertear>THE ENTIRE REST OF ILSABARD>Nagxia>Lea Monde>Golmore Jungle>Blindfrost>Meracydia
>>720346604they could easily do another expansion set back in the ARR zones and use this as an opportunity to update all the maps, updating fates to shared fates, making zones larger+areas to explore

>>720346861>>720347678What they should actually do is update all the maps from HW on, make them smaller and more detailed like AS RR, then remove flying.
>>720347618it's a bit sad to think that with all the dicksucking you apply they haven't given you an ounce
>>720347615kek
>>720347961>AS RRWhat the FUCK happened there?
Did someone say lalas and dicksucking?
>>720347896it's even a critical point that the insane traditionalists in mamook are the only people left after gulool ja ja's generation, because any mamool ja that was more tired of living in a blue shithole than they were hopeful of a mamook dominant tural or hopeful of total lion death left the forest, and that turned out to be almost all of them

We actually had to manage aggro, we actually had to USE a CORE MECHANIC common to MMOs instead of relying on a fucking aggro magnet.Tanks were a fucking mistake.

>>720346348>there's three different astral elementWait elemental aether types are umbral or astral?I suppose that would make sense considering black mage
Ishikawa ruined the story in FFXIV
>>720351962Yes, astral and umbral are polarities that describe the activity of aether. There are naturally astral elements and naturally umbral elements, but you can also have something like umbral wind which is like stagnant air, or astral ice which would be like a blizzard. Umbral fire is a dry heat, while astral fire is a flame.
>>720351962Fire, lightning, wind are considered astral elements and water, ice and earth are considered umbral, depends on which element is more understood as being passive/active by nature of how it works but all elements have passive/active states and therefore umbral/astral affinities

>>720355915None of those are in current wow>Job/class fantasyLol, lmao. That one was completely destroyed in wrath and only became worse since
>>720356132I WoW I can still play a hunter and have a pet and have that class fantasy, I can be a warlock and summon a horde if demons to fight for me, I can be a Paladin using the light to help me etc.And this is reflected with their actual spells and gameplay.In FFXIV every role plays the exact same.
>>720355785The only thing good about WoW is: >PvP is actually tolerable-good >Arenas completely mog CC>BGs completely mog Frontlinesand: >Transmogs are unlock based rather than storage basedSomething important to say about WoW's transmog system is that it is complete dogshit. You can't dye anything, you have to do farm the alt color of the armor, and there probably isn't even an alt color of that armor in the color that you want it to be in, so the Transmog system is absolutely pitiful dogshit. However, it's very nice that you only need to own something one time in order to unlock its appearance forever, rather than XIV's dogshit where you have to put it into the dresser and you only have so much storage space. I'd even forgive XIV if it had unlimited storage, but it does not.
>>720356270the mcdicks logo really ties it together
>>720356275>You can't dye anything, you have to do farm the alt color of the armor, and there probably isn't even an alt color of that armor in the color that you want it to be in, so the Transmog system is absolutely pitiful dogshit.That's a problem with armor variety and lack of a dye system, rather than a problem with the glamour system. There's plenty of shit I can't dye in FFXIV either which should be unacceptable.
>>720355785Flying physics. I think overall movement is just way better.Appearance collection.Alt progression.The UI and sheer amount of customization.

>>720356346>That's a problem with armor variety and lack of a dye system, rather than a problem with the glamour system.Yeah, I just wanted to make the distinction that even though I praise WoW's Transmog storage system, the actual Transmog system itself is complete dogshit and has nothing on XIV.

The only way to save this dogshit game is to bring back Ishikawa, double down on the fujobait, include more fanservice, and appeal to the gooners

>>720356662Thanks to people like that guy coming over from WoW to XIV, you actually can now use cheat plugins to turn every job into a 1 button job.
I quit 7.0 pretty early onDid they improve on the barely noticeable graphical update at all?
>>720356724Frontlines would be fine if all the rewards for playing them in achievements were not predicated upon farming wins. As it stands now, you are always at the mercy of whoever runs premades and are punished for playing solo, because not only are your chances of winning are much more slim, you're also fighting against people that already have all the rewards, so it turns into a situation where a bunch of well connected, well coordinated people are fighting hard to keep you from earning yours. They should have remade all the PvP achivement rewards into experience progression systems, similar to Series, so that people could make progress in them regardless of whether their team had taken the first or third place in a match.

I have basically completely stopped playing since 7.1, only resubbing to do the patch MSQ and the raids. Every single one of my raid mates have done the same, a few of them have been playing since 1.0. It's unreal how much this expansion killed the goodwill this game had built up over 10 years. Also mildly amusing how this downfall has happened immediately after hiring some Americans for Dawntrail.WoW is still infinitely more fucked

>>720361127I played occasionally in ARR/HW but I wasn't invested enough to play it daily. Also I'd rather have ShB migrants and good content than no migrants and release version Alexander raids.
>>720360912>spoilerIt is, yeah, but FFXIV is working hard to catch up. They're still not at the point just yet where writers hired to write for the game are talking about how "This game is not for you anymore" openly on their social media, but if they continue on their current trajectory, we might start seeing that too. CBU 3 started pumping woke shit into their game right as the pendulum swung the other way around and Yoshida, by nuking modsync, only poured oil into the fire, since it coincided with a massive crackdown on erotic videogames.
>>720340564They should really just end the game already. What is even keeping it afloat at this point?
>>720361289>but FFXIV is working hard to catch upnah
>go to another memorial in 7.4what the fuck is going on here?
>>720361389You will never be Doman, ijin.
>>720341257A part of me wants to re-sub because I've been playing since ARR, but honestly MMOs eat so much time and I'm busy nowadays. Add in having to play Dawntrail's story and I immediately stop caring. My personal issue with FFXIV is that they never re-captured the exploration and world-building that ARR tried to do. You were way more incentivized to go throughout the world. You used to have to rent a chocobo in the early levels and you had your class quests that took you to different places to learn about things. The MSQ feels like it takes too much away from everything else. It's the double edged sword that sort of killed the game. It prevents new players from picking up the game and it killed off a lot of old players once they released a bad story. Quite frankly, the game has a lot of issues, even down to the engine. I think they need to seriously start working on a new MMO. After all the fuckups, I genuinely don't see how they can continue. They've sort of accumulated a lot of issues and even if they solve half of them next expac, I think it's just too much for me, and especially new players, to want to get invested.

>>720361389cool lala. I hate memelord lalas so seeing this grounded ones is cool.
>>720342675Squeenix are fucking retards for constantly shuffling talent and resources out of FFXIV to focus on slop that ended up underperforming. They should have been using the talented people to make a new MMO in the background while they wrapped up FFXIV. They would have had insanely good will and hype for a new one. Instead they released utter shit, blew millions of dollars, and have nothing to show for it. They're even sinking their money maker now because it's in such a dire state that I doubt anyone could actually fix it in a single expansion. Heads need to roll in corporate for these retarded decisions. They also need to have started a new MMO project a year ago at the least, so who the fuck knows what their plan is now.
>>720361419>>720361776
>>720361289>It is, yeah, but FFXIV is working hard to catch up.As bad as DT was, it's take at least 5-6 more Dawntrail or worse level expansions to get to where WoW is currently. That game is fucked beyond any recognition.
>>720361419WoW used to be cool. Gaming used to be cool and macho. We should have held those gates firmly shut.
>>720361872>Gaming used to be cool and machoWhat is this fucking historical revisionism? Gaming use to be for fucking nerds that got shoved into lockers and received daily beatings at school.

>>720342675>>720342874>>720343084Don't worry, since they managed to do both south and north america continents in one expansion it means we can go back to having actually fun story because it won't be sanitized to please americucksOne 9/11 was not enough
>>720361992Well that's because the original developers of those games were people that valued those qualities, even if they themselves didn't have them. Now games are a consumer product, intended to sell to as many people as possible. Look at Richard Garriott, the creator of Ultima, dude made his first videogame when he was 18. Sure, it was a shitty proof of concept dungeon crawler, but he made it because he wanted to make it, not to sell it.
>>720343084>>720345696>>720345804This is when you are supposed to realize DT really is just an anime filler arc and nothing interesting will happen until next expansion

I did most of ARR hildi probably over a year ago and then a couple days ago I did the last stretch and when the real hildibrand adventures were the friends we made along the way I could barely remember who they were or much of what happened before, is Heavansward hildi pretty disconnected from previous cases or should I seek some sort of refresher before I start?
>>720356132t. vanillacuck that thinks half the spec being unplayable is class fantasyLegion added more flavor to class fantasy than every other expansion combined
>>720363236It's a brand new cast with the exception of the usual suspects.
>>720363273Alright cool thanksdon't know why I ever took such a long break from doing them, guess I decided I really wanted to catch up to level 100 but then got sidetracked doing other things anyway
>>720362949Could just be underfed or developmentally stunted, Eorzea is a shithole that had recently undergone a near apocalypse.
>>720363568I mean her tits grew to be more than misquito bites and as an adult she is STACKED, so she'd be anything but underfed.
>>720342675The "bozja" this time is total slop too along with the relic. Just a bunch of rehashed fates and monsters. If you're going to do the atma grind again and make it that worthless than might as well just let me get them from roulettes or raids too. Fates and these zones are supposed to simulate the large player experience but I interact more with 8 casuals in a raid then these fate mobs getting 3 shot.
>>720356543why yes I have fetal alcohol syndrome how could you tell?
>>720357416how did she implant that...

>>720340564The only way to save XIV is if we get the idiot in charge to play guildwars 2 first so he can see what a good mmo plays like.
>>720358098Same
>>720352660good luck getting through DT anon... good luck
>>720340564yoshitpiss is killing ff
>>720340564Shit game. Very good character creation.
They should try combining the expansion's designated new battle zone and the designated new crafting zone and make some cool immersive zone event type of thing.
Somehow this spam is okay, though?

What are lalafell babies called, like kittens for miqo'te, kits for viera.
>>720361289They hired trannies as consultants to make sure there's nothing "problematic" or "racist" in an expansion about mexicans. You can practically taste the DEI. XIV is dead and pozzed now
Viera f2p will save it.
>>720366603this cat should sit on my face instead of all that
Last postMy favorite part of FFXIV is getting railed by Roegadyn BBC
>>720367746Same desu, that and playing Dancer in Savage raids. But I love Roegadyn BBC more
