it's literally WoW except a 3 second GCD on every attack and a 200hour story where half of it could be cut and nothing would change, have fun pressing skip cutscene until lvl 79
>>
File deleted.
early access in wow is 40 extra dollars
early access in ffxiv is a preorder bonus
>>
>>730557584
More like skip cutscene until 50, then watch for a little bit at the end of post-arr, then skip cutscene again until about 54-56 when HW gets interesting then watch all the way until Dawntrail then skip that entire thing and hope its never referenced again going forward.

You can play XIV for free up to level 70 including all content contained within the base game, and its first two expansions.
>up to level 20
Does WoW really only let you play for free for like 2 hours? What content can a WoW trial player do?

You're going to skip half of Heavensward, but then specifically not do so for the protracted filler in Stormblood and Endwalker?

No, just the past week cuz someone gets mad every time content releases and DDOSes the NA servers.
EU, JP and OCE were fine.

spoilers, but neither game has more than 100k players

if it were a ddos then everyone would get kicked off instead of just random players

>>730559605
Due to how routing works, you can target nodes with a DDOS. Hit the right unprotected node, and you'll fuck over thousands of people,but not everyone.

Every single MMO is dead. I know because I had the itch to get a big crowded MMO experience recently and I tried all the big ones

I picked a full server and never saw more than 20 people on screen at once

same thing

I'm convinced all MMO numbers are frauded to high hell and there is a combined 1000 boomer whales keeping this genre alive.

They started hitting the game servers after savage dropped. When everyone went to Dynamis to prog savage suddenly Dynamis started getting hit when it was previously completely untouched for months.

>>730553651
>is it like wow where you level up and gear for raids, rinse and repeat?
More-or-less but there's enough side stuff and pointless time-waster activities and social stuff to be its own thing. Probably some of the best MMO PvP around, because it has literally no relevance to anything else in the game, and it has some of the most obnoxious and disgusting crowd-control/debuffs I've ever seen in an MMO.

If you think DT is bad you should play literally any WoW expansion's story or read any WoW novel and come back a changed and humbled man.

Thank God that Twitter has bred a type of MMO fan that has only ever experienced mid for storytelling, characters and setting, and doesn't know what actual SHIT is.

WoW is a setting, xiv is a story. When xiv story sucks it has literally nothing else and falls on its face, wows story only exists to add context to the gameplay, if it’s mid the game is still fun to play and the zones interesting and loot treadmill engaging

How long does it take to do a second Eureka weapon once you've done the first? Is there any part that is faster?
>>
>>730569049
It's significantly faster to do more of them simply because you don't have to level up your character for FATE train rewards, but it's not actually possible for the resource acquisition to go any faster. There's first time speed and there's literally every other time speed, similar to ARR relics where the only speed-up is you know what you're doing this time

Play the 10000000000000 hour shonen animu story, collect glam, ERP or uninstall. It has no relevant end game or pvp.
>>
>>730553651
You read a lukewarm to bad visual novel with minimal animations for 500 hours and occasionally you wait in queues to run braindead content that they have been literally patching mechanics out of so literal bots can clear. The crafting system is dogshit so there's really nothing else to do but fashion and fishing if you're not a porn addicted gooner AFKing in virtual nightclubs playing Skrillex for weeks at a time.
