its actually the best tho
>>730778651Nope. Worst.

That's not 9

>>730778726Truth nuke.
>>730778596It's not only the best FF, it's the best RPG ever made.
>>730778925>Good RPG>Grind
>>730778726used to be at least xiv had better graphics but the art direction in that game is terrible and the graphics have aged poorly
>>730778726>fags bringing up 14 whenever 11 is mentionedIs 14 with us in the room right now? kekEvery fucking time, literally obsessed.
>>730778925It's not even the best PS2 MMO.
>>730778596it might actually have the most content of any game in existence, i don't see how that would be worse than some shitty final fantasy tactics game
>>730778962Every good RPG ever has grinding.
>>730778975>this is the worst FF>no because 14 is worse>WOW WHO MENTIONED 14Do you think FF14 isn't a FF?
>>730779093No good RPG in the existence of anything has had grinding. You are an autistic retard that should be killed.
>>730779245Name your top 5 RPGs so I can laugh at you.
Have you tried the XI roguelike that released a week or so ago? It's actually really cool, shocked you can just play it in your browser
>>730779245Grinding is one of the fundamental aspects of RPGs. A lot don't require it, obviously, but it is something the genre is known for.

can I play this as an offline ff, or the best way to play it is still that tranny private server?
>>730779380No it's not.
>>730779308What's it called?
I played FF11 for a week, and it was everything an MMO shouldn't be.You cannot run away from anything.You cannot solo anything after like the first few levels. It's not a game where you can outclever the various situations, because there's nothing various about them.Fuck this game.I didn't play FF14 at all, don't bother telling me that it's worse or something. I don't care.
>>730778975>i mentioned one of the final fantasy mmos being the worst final fantasy and the other guy mentioned the other final fantasy mmo... he's so obsessed!
>>730779424You're shit at RPGs if you need to grind in any of those.
>>730779485not true but just to humor you, it’s not designed to appeal to the modern gamer
>>730779540It is true.If it wasn't you would've brought heat of some kind.Kill yourself.

>>730780649>implying MMO = can't solo anything
>>730780458That's because you're a faggot.

I think from a RPG systems perspective FFXI is the best Final Fantasy and maybe the best computer RPG. I mean that in the sense of as a complete RPG system for simulating combat in a fantasy setting FFXI is the most complete and compelling ruleset in the franchise and is the most fun to experiment and play around with, it allows for the expression of so many different character types. The jobs in FFXI all have their own little niche and feel unique, I love it. I'd play more games using FFXI's RPG system as a basis. I like it better than D&D, Pathfinder, or SPECIAL or really any other RPG system. I like how each of the base attributes is tied to an element, I like how the elements are laid out, I like how the days of the week correspond to each of the elements/attributes and this also ties into the 8 cardinal directions, all of it just works and I like how well thought out it all was.Now if I could change one thing about the cosmology I'd replace their dualist religion into a polythesistic religion with 8 gods each matching one of the elements/attributes/days/ect So instead of Firesday, lets say Ifreet is your Fire/STR god it'd be Ifreetsday, something like that. Anyway, I like it and I want to play more RPGs using FFXI's RPG. No other game scratches my FFXI build autism itch now, the way stats interact is just so good, and making equipsets for every single ability and weapon skill is fun. I also like how the loot isn't random but planned out and how each NM has a unique drop, there's so many aspects of the game I love and appreciate.That said, not a huge fan of MMOs. I'd prefer FFXI the full party RTwP CRPG.
>>730784460>Now if I could change one thing about the cosmology I'd replace their dualist religion into a polythesistic religion with 8 gods each matching one of the elements/attributes/days/ectThat actually is already in the setting. Altana and Promathia made Vana'diel, but the eight elemental avatars are also gods themselves who are just projecting part of their influence into Vana'diel through their dreams. Their actual forms are the colored stars in the night sky.
>>730778596trvth nvke
>>730784020There was always something you could be doing to progress in this game, time gatekeeping is the last thing that comes to mind with FFXI (endgamefags don't count and deserve total death)
>>730783132Exping is half the fun of the game, if you don't like it, why are you playing FF?
>>730784746He's trying to pretend that the first two hours of any DQ game isn't just grinding slimes so you can buy a sword.
>>730778596it's far from my favorite but that's still some abhorrent bait
>>730784460The elements also seem to be tied to the summons which are tied to the game's metaphysics/cosmology. It's pretty nicely laid out. After on and off years of playing this game since it's launch, I recently found an NPC with a star map that blew my mind with some basic implications I never caught on to and made me wiki-dive for some information.
>>730784460The amount of depth the setting has and the way it all intertwines is insane considering it's the first MMO the company made.
>>730784746Grinding XP for the sake of leveling is the shittiest, most unfun thing you can do in a video game.
>>730784917intertwines in relation to the gameplay, is what I meant to say
>>730778726This
>>730784946Good thing XI leveling wasn't grinding.
>there will be no new horizontal mmo everIt's so over
>>730784994Yes it was.
>>730785070They're both cancer.
>>730785146No, it wasn't. Leveling in XI was a community oriented experience, it involved setting up a group, traveling to the location of choice, and then using the teamwork oriented combat mechanics to defeat mobs. Beyond this the system was paced in a way that meant you had ample time to converse with your party members, in fact most of your time was spent having conversations.You were filtered, spare us hours of whining, just leave.
>>730782525Ah the mandatory "(franchise thread is about) was never good!" post
>>730785268You have just described grinding. Grinding doesn't get more fun the more people are added, it's still dogshit tier gameplay.
>>730785287Him and OP are just being inflammatory to get asses in the thread. Nothing keeps a thread from page 10 like ragebait.
>>730785349No, I'm actually sincere in how much I think this game sucks ass.
FFXI also has one of the best class fantasy in RPGs. I miss this "MMO is just cRPG where you control one character instead of party" shit
>>730785308Anon, cmon now.
>>730778651FPBP /threadLiterally playing two different private servers as we speakBest game wouldn't boot anything else
Ff11 is better than world of faggot cartoon craft every day of the week. No hand holding. No giant arrows to tell you where to go. Impossible hard bosses that it made the news. Took literal years to make weapons so it was amazing when someone had one.
>>730783725are Kupo, Crystalline Prophecy, Shantotto's, and the Abyssea trilogy even worth doing? I've been following the Simple Mission Guide on bg-wiki, they make no mentions of those, just Rhapsodies and Voracious Resurgence.
>>730785384I love how wildly different jobs can be, a job like bard literally did NOTHING aside from singing songs, you'd never see a class like that in a modern game.
>>730785481Abyssea is worth doing. Crystalline is a great epilogue to the whole Promathia saga. Kupo and Shantotto both suck.
>>730785467A fellow HorizonXI x CatsEyeXI twink like myself?
>>730785421No, fuck you. Killing mobs for XP for the explicit purpose of gaining levels is textbook grinding.
>>730785570This behavior is very unbecoming for a XI thread.
Didn't play 11 so I can't judge it but I will always hate that they decided to blow up their main series naming convention by titling an inaccessible MMO that is now essentially vaporware.They killed the franchise with this and doubled down with 14.So dumb, why not just call them Final Fantasy Online or some hyphenation.
>>730780847>>730780942I am the OP of the /vm/ EverQuest Online Adventures Thread - feel free to come find us and play bros, shit is so cash. Google eqoa.live
>>730785628>an inaccessible MMO that is now essentially vaporwareWhat? I can log into it right now. It just got an update yesterday.
>>730785308Everything is grinding. Fighting a mob? Grinding. Doing missions? Grinding. Doing dungeons? Grinding. Doing dailies? Grinding. I always hated how people acted like FFXI was some stand out exception.Nowadays, games fool people into logging on every day to get their logon bonus or some shit and waste your time more aggressively.
>>730785384You can functionally make it a CRPG if you play/host a p.server that lets you login multiple accounts. I did it once, /follow [name] and /attack <bt> macros are all you need really since the gameplay is slow enough for it. Only really need to control the healer, and swap to everyone else when you want to use their TP or ability with like 5min CD.Playing with Trusts and using commands from that one plugin give you options in how the crpg plays out too.
ITT: faggots that come into a MMO thread and complain about grinding. Imagine being this retarded. Could never be me.
>>730785481Those probably stayed purely as content for 75 characters and I bet never got touched after Ab*ssea
>>730778651fpbp. OP is brown
>>730785661I'm talking about 99% of even just "fans" of the series. It's dated, and you can get into a game that is a barren wasteland. I can't imagine more than a few hundred people worldwide ever deciding to get into FFXI from this point onward.Even 14 is now dated and I only played through it after Dawntrail released, I kept hitting walls where I had to wait for days to find parties in order progress through MSQ.These shouldn't be considered main series titles and because they are, every conversation about the franchise as a whole has to have asterisks including or awkward omissions.
>>730785837Anon, there are servers with thousands of people logged in at a time still. Believe it or not but the game has been getting new blood in the last few years to the point they've had to close registration to a couple of the servers.
>>730785837you are smoking some serious pipe bro the three private servers I play get new signups every day and retail's player count has only gone UP on steam the last few months, you 'feel some wierd shit' about a game series and you cant 'imagine more than a few hundred people worldwide ever getting into ffxi from this point onward' please realise you are mind raping yourself and 100 people signed up to one server JUST YESTERDAY, FFXI Renaissance is in full swing rn come play
>>730785802MMOs are shit BECAUSE they force grinding on you.
>>730785837>and you can get into a game that is a barren wasteland. I can't imagine more than a few hundred people worldwide ever deciding to get into FFXI from this point onward.They've been closing several servers lately because so many new players have been coming on board.>It's datedIt's dated in the sense that it's an actual video game instead of a time wasting pile of shit like everything else that comes out today, yeah.>These shouldn't be considered main series titlesSakaguchi was the one who demanded XI be considered main series.
>>730778726No game is inferior to XI's item chest minigame
>>730785380Me too bro, I 'hate' FFXI, and think about it and make threads about it all the time too.
>>730778971nobody believes this and I hate xiv
>>730785837Game was way too overpopulated when Horizon launched, but I think that was a once-in-a-lifetime deal since XIV was turning to shit and enough zoomies grew up to be interested in the game and not getting their touchscreen smooth brains instantly filtered from using a keyboard and relying on hand-eye coordination rather than purely screen visuals. I think there will be just one more p.server boom because of the release of Dawn Trail's raids post-Horizon, so keep an eye out if you're actually interested, as much as private servers are full of cancer it's all that's left right now.Do not play the circus that is retail unless you just want to power through the stories in 3 months. Ignore retailredditors. Roundhouse kick retailredditors. They will all die of cancer/blown out knees/backs in 10 years anyways.
>>730785752No, fuck you, you don't get to try to redefine it to downplay it. FFXI is singled out because it took from Everquest, where right away you have to grind your ass off to get anywhere.
>>730785929Some people enjoy doing some things you don't enjoy doing. For example; you like sucking cock and being a fag with a worthless opinion.
>>730780819Sorry but MMO's aren't for you
>>730786162You have no idea what MMOs can be if you think MMOs aren't for me.
>>730786197If you're getting filtered by the best mmo you probably don't like mmo's bro lol
>>730786216The best MMO is and always will be Ultima Online.
>>730786253You didn't play it.
>>730786253Go make a thread about it then, why the fuck are you wasting your time seething here?
>>730786281Yes I did. You didn't.
>>730786253i love me some ultima but it doesn't have the same "I can really sit here for 20 hours and vibe" effect that FFXI does
>>730786334You didn't. You wouldn't have problem with FF11 otherwise and this "I can't solo". or "I can't run away from, anything (you can).
>>730778596any final fantasy that requires me to be online is automatically at the bottom of the list
>>730786430Yes I would, are you fucking retarded? UO is a sandbox MMO. FFXI is not.
>>730786505>Yes I wouldYou wouldn't. And this>You cannot solo anything after like the first few levels.Is a lie btw. Valkurm Dunes is the place where group play actually starts. If you wanted to paly solo you would pick up solo job. >UO is a sandbox MMOYes you read it on wikipedia. EVE s a sandbox MMO too. And Star Wars galaxies. Woosh.
>>730786628Yes I would and that's not my post. I have no respect for early EQ style MMOs for a thousand reasons.
>>730786725Don't have enough time to play them? I don't understand how you cannot respect the literal best style of game. >p99 green open right now alongside my two instances of private server ffxiAm I your arch nemesis? Do you actually play EQ? Come tank for me in Unrest lol
>>730786725Playing UO solo = being a loser who can't do anything.Playing EQ, XI solo = being a loser who can't do anything. Next time try to use Meridian 59 card instead of UO
>>730786334Is this the anon that was having a meltdown yesterday and it turns out he played till level 14 and quit?
>>730786869No, I refuse to spend time the way I'm expected to in them. I don't have any fun whatsoever XP grinding. It's shit. Always has been shit. UO had the grace to actually let me do what the fuck I wanted (very) shittily right away and in comparison to garbage like EQ or even vanilla WoW was lightning fast in letting me get to a competent level where a skill was functional and I could interact with people fine, even if capping it took a long ass time.
>>730787039>I don't like THING>Therefore I am going to seek out people that like THING and scream in their facesthird world behavior
>I don't have any fun whatsoever XP grinding>UO had the grace to actually let me do what the fuck I wanted Nice LARP.You didn't play UO
>>730787079Yeah I did. I'm sorry that you're addicted to grinding and can't recognize when something takes a lot less of it.
>>730787010>No, I refuse to spend time the way I'm expected to in them. I don't have any fun whatsoever XP grinding. It's shit. Always has been shit.Here is your problem, you think one of the best parts of the game is whack, you know the part of the game that requires you to socialize, slowly level up and use u're brain to figure out new things about your job/class. I exp in a party most nights just to shoot the shit in party chat and hang with the bros. I'm not sure you even played UO. If you don't like the core elements of these games why are you in these threads, because you like the visual appeal of these video games but you aren't cut out to put a couple hours a day aside to form a party and talk to people?
>UO has no grinding I swear I did play it!lol
>>730787235It took no time at all relative to games like EQ to get to 50 in a skill come the fuck on. You're the one who's obviously never played it.
>>730785810redpill me on what made 75 so special. what causes the decline for veterans post-lvl 75.
>farming doesn't exist in UO! I don't farm anything all day and night!
>>730787218It's by far the worst, and worse than socializing with people without a game at all. People don't make unfun bullshit fun.
I like both games
>>730787457>People don't make unfun bullshit fun.genuinely baffling claim
>>730787436>implying unreasonable amounts of farming was necessary for anything other than the last few stretches>implying it has ANYTHING on EQ's level grind which would instantly get worse if a phone call kicked your internet off at the wrong time>forgetting about macros that offloaded the worst of it
>i'm totally was SOLO KANG in UO circa 1997 clir PvM solo ril ez clapd 1vs5 PK all day bruh no grind all ez SOLO KANG
>>730787398The game was centered around 75 since its inception and was that way for a decade until the level cap raise. It was essentially a server wipe and a reset of the entire game and its content, since everything old was treadmilled or going to be treadmilled. Eventually old content gets no one running it since the old gear is moot outside of trannymogging, hence the need to eventually add trusts for that part of the game now.From what I understand, after Abyssea, you only leveled from 1-cap in a day in full-man alliances and just stayed naked afk the whole way, which meant ignoring all the content before it.Nowadays they slightly course corrected but it's a circus show with all the abandoned ideas slapped on like the ilvls, and gear is treadmilled via some other system since they all have stat vomit to replace character level ups (because they'd break the game or something if they just kept raising levels).
>>730779485You can summon NPC party members now. I hadn't played since 2005 and just restarted and it's way more of a solo game than it used to be which just makes it feel like a gigantic offline RPG.>>730780649>MMOs aren't for you thenHe's clearly talking about the game before Trusts, newfag.
>>730785514Also bards were so goddamn sought after back in the "you must have a party to level up" days.Getting a BRD in your party was like getting an NBA player on your pick up basketball team. You leveled so much faster.
>>730787398>MMO that doesn't rise level cap every expansion >some BIS items were low lvl>you have choice to what to wear at max level because it wasn't about item lvl 30000 +300000dps in every expansion >content for all group of players
Actually, XIV killed the franchise
give me a current ffxi meta dps tier list, or at least name a few top tier dps job/subjob combos. haven't played in forever, considering getting back into it full on but assuming it's still a gigantic time commitment, i dont want to go in completely blind to what's decent
>>730788054Everything is good.
>>730788054>job that equip sword>equip niggerling>????>profit
>>730788054It's a modern time commitment now, because it's all gatelocked by days/weeks/months now. You can't full NEET your way into progression anymore.
Rate my REMAs: >Apoc, Annihilator, Gjallarhorn>Tizona, Yagrush, Death Penalty, Carnhenwen, Epeolatry>Ukonvasara, Farsha, Daurdabla, Caladbolg, Masamune, >Fomalhault, Dojikiri, Tishtrya, Lionheart, Marsyas>Helheim, Laphria both stage 4
>>730788225This is incorrect, only a couple of the tippy top top top pieces of content are like that.
>>730788278Huh? Lsat I remember when I had to look how to get better gear and had to websearch it like a research paper, the first content is the Mhaura instanced stuff and the drops you can buy from it being monthly locked, and runs being 5 times a day or something. Did it already change? That was like in 2017 btw.
I like Mithra more than Miqote.
>>730788453me on the left whenever a mithra passes clothed or not
>>730788409Yeah it's nothing like that anon, you can spam as much as you want and buy out all the rewards every month, they also turbo juiced the rewards last year even further. There IS content in the game that would take you mega months if not a year + to complete but its' the ultra pinnacle content for people who have literally everything and have been playing for a decade to tackle.No concern to you or anyone else because it's 0.1% of the available endgame, FF11 has too much content now.
>>730780649you can still get killed while going through a zone line and pop out the other side dead in a safe zone
>>730788054>DPSWAR is top dog thanks to its versatility with weapons, SAM and DNC are close second. DRG DRK are good options. MNK is used for niche cases but when they work, they really work. RNG is that "8th job built when I already have alot of gil and a KClub" and cannot be played any other way, which is why they are so rare.>HealingBoth WHM and SCH, but WHM is preferred slightly more due to its easier barrier of entry and its usage of Curaga in AoE spam fights. SCH is fantastic in its own right and can replace WHM in some situations. >SupportBRD and COR, and its rare that the two are ever separated in a group. The only time you don't want a BRD is in a Mage setup or Pet-Job parties in some older content. COR, like WHM, has a significantly lower barrier of entry compared to BRD. GEO has lost some of its appeal thanks to specific nerfs to its support auras in specific zones but still a very good job. Perhaps the most niche of the three support jobs.RDM has the coveted Haste2/Refresh3/Dia3/Enfeebs and can DPS. It's not going to beat a good WAR but it can come dangerously close.>TanksPLD and RUN are both great, each with their distinct advantages. I play both of them and in terms of playstyle I prefer RUN a little more, but like with everything it really depends on the situation. Some content that require zerging bosses don't even need them.>MagesGEO, BLM, and SCH all have their uses for mage setups (Sortie and Ody). You don't see BLM in most parties because its just easier to auto attack/weapon skill 95% of the time, but again, when the situation calls for them, they work. BLU just doesn't do enough to replace the main DPS, but its a phenomenal solo job.>Pet JobsBST sees some use, albeit in a mercenary way (Bumba RP), SMN is restricted to old content, PUP afaik is used for one Ody boss and one Ambuscade that cycles every two years.>The restNIN/THF are not in a good place. THF you can at least farm, but NIN needs a lot of help.
>>730788972You can run from some things and under some circumstances. That anon is a faggot for wanting a safe handholdy world though. The dangerous world of FFXI is a big part of what makes it fun and engaging and hard incentivizes the already good progression/non-instanced partying.
>>730787689>Nowadays they slightly course corrected but it's a circus show with all the abandoned ideas slapped on like the ilvls, and gear is treadmilled via some other system since they all have stat vomit to replace character level upsIt still has the same horizontal genes tho. Like if you google guides and gear sets it's not just one BIS in all slots. Different weapons, different armors etc. They're just all 119 lvl
>>730785771Take a Lua course and learn how to send more complex commands to your multiboxes and it's the fuckest raddest game ever made
>>730785837The Bahamut server on FFXI just had to be closed for new entries recently because there's too many new people starting the gameFFXI is still somehow GAINING subscribers
>>730778596I miss this game so much, the DUNES, the friends...fuck man it was so kino
>>730789027yeah, but there's far less ilvl 119 stuff than there is level 75 and 99 stuff. The end game has almost necessitated you only use ilvl 119 stat vomit gear rather than being able to use something like a level 50 piece for its unique bonuses, rather than just ilvl 119 everything
>>730789138But are they actually new players or old soulless balding boomers who all collectively have played the game long enough that they can justify starting a new 6-man 6-account multibox play session all over again.
>>730788054>S tier>can use naegling>A tier>can buff party members who use naegling>Garbage F- trash bin tier>can't use or buff naegling
>>730789005which job that functions as dps decently in group stuff is also decent solo/with trusts? war again, drk maybe edging it out solo?my gut says samurai but i feel like that would be weird playing largely solo
>>730789252And yet there are a billion 119 pieces for you to choose from and multiple options per slot for any job at any prog level.Oh and some jobs do still use 75 and or 99 gear.
>>730789285They are actually new people, who are usually coming from XIV enticed by the new XI crossover raid, or from other MMOs and want to try out an everquest-esque MMO
>>730789324Samurai is strong but it requires investment to feel strong, it's fun at any level however. WAR is probably still the best "I just want to smash and not have to put a lot of effort into my gear" job to start with.
