The raid community in XIV is the biggest problem the game faces. It needs to be eradicated and a solid start would be going after fflogs, archon and tombstone.

>Why are trans rights messages even posted in a discord for Final Fantasy XIV?
Do you even need to ask this stupid question? Transpeople are more likely to be involved with MMORPGs due to roleplaying their ideal sex (males wanting to be female)
>>
>>737148336
Yeah, but then you'd get people asking "well isn't this the final dungeon in the game because it's called 'final fantasy'?"
>>
>>737148174
They are so fragile they need constant validation or the sails start to wilt. Like a lot of stuff in human (or even social animal) affairs it's about power. When they were big on prompting some celebrity to have to say trans rights are human rights it wasn't about somehow advancing such rights, it wasn't even necessarily the validation of a celebrity saying it when you think about it (proving me wrong earlier). It is more
>I, once powerless, now have a power to force someone to say a mantra to prove their loyalty to me. If they refuse, then me and people like me can ruin their lives.

Read the Green grocer parable from Havel. It's the exact same as the shopkeeper being made to put

It is, but it is only one layer of kino. Showing that the paths the other stars took lead to their end.
The Final Fantasy is kino on the same level and many others by marking the definitive climax of the story, and adding the subtle context that it was the death of hope that was their fall.
Plus the only thing more kino than a game title drop is a series title drop.

They skipped over Garlemald and frankly shouldn't try to do it now, you've got one more continent we know of and then you'd have to pull the rest out of your ass. For each new place we go to or create you'd have to make excuses as to why it hasn't been relevant before, how every piece of lore already created effects it, and how the WoL won't have access to his infinitely staffed and resource rich support team.

Take the story elsewhere.

In the remake saga Aeriths charge skill will call up a butterfly fairie who attacks enemies with her to charge her atb gauge faster.
Shes got a big flower petal forward shield skill and in Rebirth she summons a patch of flowers to push Cloud between dimensions.

We already know everything about them, just like almost everything else on the source, it's all related to the ancients through the ascians. If you want garlean content it's going to be ancients content, that gate to tartarus will be something made by the ancients.

It would also be yet another XI storyline done worse.

>>737150980
Tartarus isn't a gate or anything like it is in XI. It's the black hole technology Construct VII uses which in the Second Astral Era was used to create the Cataract of Ridorana. And the damage would just be a catalyst for the planet freaking out.

The people there and their politics, squabbles, and what they eat is all irrelevant, they were skipped, they have no use to the story other than squatting in the tower we have to use and wasting an entire fucking patch because the writer is a fucking retard. Endwalker answered most questions and gave the WoL the backup to handle anything. The only good solution is to take the story elsewhere, explore new settings that aren't figured out and explained.

Aerith is afraid of planet dying from abuse of the lifestream
The latter is just a reference to Cait Sith, who Aerith is much friendlier toward in Rebirth whereas in ff7og hes just like there and doesnt contribute much until the ancient temple.

Politics and squabbles can escalate into new stories. It took me three minutes to think up that example I gave of how a minor squabble in a region we haven't explored can blow up into a planetary threat. That's generally how Final Fantasy goes. Shardslop is trash written for retards with no investment or knowledge of the setting, written by retards with no investment or knowledge of the setting. Ilsabard being a mystery box means you can write anything there. Same was true for Tural. The writers are either just incompetent or they know their audience, (You).

You did play 1.0 right? What about 11? Would you like to have a conversation about the market systems as created by the devs in 11 and the workarounds the community used? What about trying to back up your claim that the same people who created those mechanics in 11 then went on to create similar yet completely unworkable and unuseable systems in 1.0?

If it was the same people how could they forget how to create a working system? They had nearly 10 years of experience at that point.

Mor Dhona was interesting as shit when I first got there. And all the crystal shit in Eastern Thanalan. I liked Coerthas Western Highlands in HW just because it was fuckhuge.

>>737152008
Yeah, I'll agree with Mor Dhona.
They need to get some more spectacle back in their overworld zones.
I can see people feeling that way about Living Memory, but honestly only after 7.3. It looked kinda flat in 7.0. And then the other zones were generally pretty basic.
I looked at the new XI raid part as a not-XI player, and that big ass tree creates an interesting atmosphere. It looks like it's high, and enormous - it has that kind of depth to it. Why don't we have such landmarks smack dab in our actual overworld zones?
How about how overgrown it all is, including in the water itself?

I want to blame flying but I'm not sure how fair that is. ARR zones had a LOT more effort put into them but they are all fairly small. Expansion zones are larger and obviously not made while under the duress of the game tanking bringing down the entire company. But then again if the instanced areas look that good how the fuck can the world zones not keep up?

Smaller pockets, I assume. There's just a little bit of "land" to traverse and the rest is window dressing. Different from having to create a full zone.

So you want to create a small scale story like HW, that's good, but you still:
>Have to explain how and why the WoL can't solve the issue by calling in the 3 city states, Ishgard, everyone from SB, the loporrits, the dragons, the space ship that can travel to the end of the universe, or the forces/tech of Alexandria.

The WoL has so much help and so much backing that any small scale story on the source is going to be blanketed with issues, hell the dragons even showed up to help in Dawntrail. Also if you want to be technical about it, the Dragonsong War involved a species that came from another planet due to a much larger story involving other alien species, so it's adjacent to "shardslop" as you so put it.

That was already explained in the brief greentext.
1. A Scion spearheaded the snafu that led to the conflict to begin with
2. Two alliances are falling apart because of political interests or other obligations, putting strain on the networks WoL has built up. And WoL can't just start nuking Ul'dahn soldiers because they're obligated to Garlemald for the sake of maintaining trade relations with Radz-at-Han, or start blowing up Gridania because the Elementals are seething ovdr Garleans blowing a hole in the planet and causing chaos.

bst has a Trick command thats basically a revolving Gauge spender for big dps combos.
Gold, Green, Blue, Red circles light up and add an extra Light or Dark affinity to your Beast Gauge that ends in a big finishing move.
So calling it a skillchain was kinda correct as the Bst and the Beast have to chain their Instinct attacks together to light up the correct emblems on the gauge to access the Light or Dark attacks.
Each emblem attack costs 100 gauge from (you) and your beast and using one burns your whole gauge (cap 250 I think).
You get a skill to instantly fill your gauge for faster comboing.

Wow, capping your tomestones but.... it's in the currency tab this time!
I'm basedjakking! This will make it not insanely boring as fuck! This will shake up gearing up your alts! What did they even say about Enuo, the totem being removed shit after his? It's an alright start but it is years too late for them to realize autistic tomestone farming is something only the unhinged did on patch, and they likely realized that it was hurting their bottom line in some way so they had to rework it to incentivize people to stick onto the game longer. I think every trial lately dropping 2 was an experiment in that regard, but unless they change drop rates or make it so the vendor has the mount on the patch it drops on, it's still DOA in my eyes. I used to do that mount farming stuff until Endwalker when I realized I could have just spent my time playing new/old video games instead of sitting in dated trials where people can't buttons or breathe air without assistance. It's the same thing with how tomestone farming is. At some point I just gave up on how much they babied players over time that they can't really hit buttons at all so I just autoduty them all for 3 hours on Tuesday reset if I even need to. It's stressmaxxing, the placated playerbase doesn't really have a right to my free time anyways. And honestly I'm happier for it. I give a shit more about if they'll own up to doing anything drastic over the couple of months but I'm not holding my breath. Maybe they'll make tanking less designed for drooler chimps that will only ever see tank busters as 'i voke and have mit running'. The risk of death needs to return in Westwolves, or some form of punishment that isn't reliant on a body check potentially in later Savage floors. And yeah, I'm still mad about Chaotic too because they clearly fucked the scaling to ensure that it'd be DOA outside of Discord after the first week. More than anything, I'd like to see them attempt evergreen collection shit too but they won't

Bst isnt terribly different from Summoner its basically Drg or Samurai + a pet so it just blows its a limited job.
It would be one thing if bst actually fought the way people initially suspected by summoning 3 beasts at once as its own light party but its beasts are just on a rotation since their Finisher skill banishes them and forces you to summon the next one.

I like Koji Fox (I know hes not currently doing it) a lot, but even with him I desperately wished for more accurate translations. He can keep the Shakespearean talk for Urianger, the constant use of the word Myriad and in game local idioms. But learning about big discrepancies was always disappointing.
I have not compared much lately, I just kind of accepted thats how it is and if you voice out against it the player base spergs out. But this recent trailer I was reminded.

If DT had flopped back in 2020 or even 2022 there'd still be time for them to be lazy and fuck up a second time but 50% reduction of your height population, server costs jacked up due to AI, people stingier with what they entertain themselves with, Square enix coming off of forspoken and babylon something and the climate today being less free money tech-company loans and it's all a perfect storm of "Quit fucking around and do what makes money"

It's like the vacation they promised was more them vacationing with new ideas (new protagonist, new more squeaky wholesome less depressing story compared to SHB/END) and having realized how fucked it was going back to the mean.

Only real risk I see is waifuism by the writers for Calyx or green fish making them suffocate the story even if it's not in an ass kissing way.

no I am aware things happen. unlike yourself I still play the game but am bitter because I have fuckelse to do. the curse of playing other games in tandem with xiv ensures that you realize Yoshi P is legitimately so buck broken by 1.0 that it's never left his brain for almost a decade now. we are still getting deep dungeons like they aren't the most niche content on the planet for example, a shit regurgitated formula that other roguelikes have done better since potd. do you get anything that changes your skills? maybe gives you a new one? no, mostly you will get something that prevents death or a votive that gives you a free floor clear. it's passive, it's generic, it lacks interest entirely, as if the dev team is doing stuff for DD not out of love but out of obligation. quantum dying in record speed I think is a good example where I basically have to beg my friends 'it's to challenge something hard' to even incentivize them to do something different from savage. it's less 'nothing ever happens' but 'something will happen'. let me cite what I think is a pretty telling example. dawntrail as a whole has been lacking hard on the weapon glows. we have had no crafted ex in a long while. in past deep dungeons, they used to give glowy weapons for turning in aetherpool grips. when eureka orthos dropped, they stopped doing it entirely. showing off a unique hard mode of a floor 100 boss made me think that pilgrim's traverse was going to break this formula, considering they had the weapon models ready and everything. what did they opt to do for quantum 40? they did literally nothing except give you a title that 90% of the player base has turned off. I hate faggots that laud ultimate weapons like it's their own sole important personality trait and i never used them but I like the concept of 'trophies' existing. it's just dull and uninteresting to me. and when the story only gets worse over time what else am I supposed to look forward to? sorry if I gave wrong imp.

something that always perplexed me: what is the actual official, intended titles for the expansions? the japanese titles are different from the english titles, yet things like the soundtrack and other in-game references will reference the english version.
example: stormblood is called "liberator of the crimson lotus" in japanese, yet in game you have "storm of blood, born from blood!" and plenty of other references to "stormblood" that are present in the jp text. I wonder if this is ever confusing to jp players.

Bear in mind there's mood or elements lost in translation when it's direct.

"Liberator of the lotus" - that sounds like nonsensical jibberish because lotus barely factors into our cultural lexicon but they have some reference for Lotus. Shadowbringers or stormblood don't have quite the same cultural touchstone but the jet black thing reminds me of how
>Black hat
used to carry a distinct connotation due to Westerns (Hence black hats in hacking = bad hackers) but if you translated black hat hacking to Japanese without considering that it'd be
"People with black hats chopping" or "People in black headwear breaking into technology".

Also just cultural thing. There's that joke of how long winded japanese anime titles are: "I was reincarnated as a dragon but I just want to be a chef instead of be the demon king" whereas long titles don't go over well here.

"Liberator of the Lotus" - whose the lotus, what's the lotus, why does it need liberating, whose liberating it. You could do the same to stormblood but ultimately without that cultural reference for lotus it's meaningless. Stormblood is fiery blooded, thunderous bloodshed.

I'd expect jet black villains for a noir movie, a heist, something a bit black comedy. Not a savior bringing night to a world dying of light. The WoL is not even a villain, so it's utterly deceptive. But that's also to my cultural point of view. Villain might carry a different meaning for the Japanese, or >>737156247 blackest traitors.

I don't think the Japanese names are bad in a Japanese context, but I don't think they're better than the English variants at all. "Skies of Ishgard" reminds me of those games that mention a place in their world which to any outside observer means fuck all. 'Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning" kinda deal or imagine Witcher 3 being not "Wild hunt" but "Fields of Skellige" - if anyone isn't already buying it they go
>What the fuck is a skellige/Amalur/Ishgard.

Heavensward immediately conveys themes agnostic to the setting but which will show up in the expansion. But jet black villains becomes vague and misleading.

sorry we already have a job with a gun in the game that means there can never, ever be anything remotely similar. no it doesn't matter if you hate the sci-fi fantasy that has been bolted onto machinist and completely replaced the original cooler steampunk fantasy.

I would've resubbed, but it took way too long for them to get going for it to be worth catching up. The base DT OST is a fucking disgrace.
>>
>>737157809
a lot of former 11 players said the same.
Magic Burst at least be something nice for healers if theyre still gonna be 1 button jobs forever.
Course I think most dps would hate another button being added if they arent gonna scrunch down the basic 1-2-3s of every dps rotation into one button.
Sadly we are woefully unlikely to get any real 8.0 info besides the title and a few area screens at fanfes next weekend.
Maybe the short short teaser trailer that has 0 new characters or job implications.
>>
>>737157809
>>737157797
if corsair is ever added (it won't be thanks to machinist and their obsession with not having jobs that are "too similar" thematically) it would not resemble anything like the ff11 corsair except maybe on a superficial level

You might not want to hear it but the raid OSTs are amazing
That said, the only DT song I did not like really was Smile. Ironic considering Solution 9's theme is the same song but without the lyrics, slowed down, with some reverb and more electronic notes and I loved that one.

yes but they gave it to healers too instead of healers getting the scholar af (which is very cute) or geomancer or something unique.

You can't implement skillchains in XIV's combat system, mobs don't live long enough, combat is meaningless outside of raid bosses. With raid bosses you're just zoomed a mile out watching where your feet are while mashing your memorized rotation, there's nothing fun to inject in that process.

a limited job like beastmaster getting interesting mechanics should not give you any amount of hope, limited jobs are specifically meant for cool ideas that they would never risk putting onto a real job. nothing from blue mage has ever impacted the rest of the game and it will be the same for beastmaster

Maybe they would reclassify your normal rotation as your "auto attack" equivalent and the large spenders would be your weaponskills. It would be fun to hold buttons and time your usage instead of the old 2 minute meta. It's going to absolutely fuck every piece of existing content though I don't know how you'd rebalance shit.

speaking of hair it's hilarious to me that this game still hasn't figured out how to have good long hair that doesn't clip with stuff. there is so many basic issues in xiv that are treated as impossible to fix, that it's lost technology and unfeasible, when other mmos figured it out a decade ago.

I don't mind NPC outfits but we really didn't need the ark angel sets, I would have preferred they just give us AF sets for each raid and call it a day. Or you know, if they want to do NPC gear then give us something a little more outlandish.

I actually like the ark Angels ones and dislike the character outfits.
Would have just preferred all the AFs though. Though somewhat redundant depending on the job compared to some armors they have in this game already.

if we don't get some news about cross-dc party finder at fan fest I'm going to be more than a little enraged. yoshi said 3 years ago "sorry cross dc partyfinder is impossible, would take too long to make please understand, maybe we'll think about adding some of these bandaid solutions that don't fix anything soon" and we haven't heard shit about it since then. this is a massive issue for anyone who enjoys raiding and it's basically been ignored.

Seven uses a Whipblade, which we haven't gotten yet. King dual wields guns for a fast playstyle, much different from MCH. Machina dual wields "rapiers" but in Type-0 they are drills with high speed combos. Cinque uses a mace, which I think would be a refreshing tank class focused on bashing and not slicing like WAR. Cater is pretty much a Gun Mage, which is a travesty this game didn't make one. And Deuce plays a flute, that's it. We have DNC and BRD but none of them are real music type buff classes. Deuce plays closest to Songstress in X-2.

Ace is obviously superior to Astrologian in every way.

NTA I also don't necessarily conflate physics and collision. You can have hair that flows better, but calculating collision is another thing.
It's basically extra math so that it recognizes that the hair should interact with whatever it's touching in specific ways, mostly by flowing over things accordingly.

I think Shantotto is inherently silly enough that no one takes her that seriously, but people get autistic about weirder things
SE seems to still see her just as a walking funny OP potato joke and nothing more, and knowing how they tend to keep most of their characters in stasis, she'll probably stay that way forever and not be influenced by any external autism like how other similar characters have been over the years

>>737158867
Power level autism tends to draw in exactly those people though. Doesn't help that we had Dissidia where every villain was sucking her off. But that's also why they clarified that the Shantotto in the raid is an echo, as it means they can avoid all of it.

Good rule of thumb: If XIV doesn't have it as a feature then nobody has ever figured out how to do it before. Whether that's hair physics, interesting class design or non-linear boss fights. It's just simply never been done before.

I think it's more fair to say that if neither you nor I can think of a single player game that totally annihilates clipping issues and hair weirdness, let alone an MMO, we shouldn't expect CBU3 to come up with a miracle solution to a problem ailing the entire industry during a coffee break in their MMO built on a foundation of sticks and broken dreams.

>>737159484
BDO and new world mitigated (not solved, mitigated) hair clipping with physics
WoW mitigates clipping (or used to) by just being smart with the hair and armor designs and making hair that flows well with the gear designs
xiv takes the shortcut of saying fuck it, offering very few long hair options and doing nothing about clipping

The reason specifically the mention of that game irks me is because it 1. has no 3D gear so it doesn't even really have anything to clip with, and whenever you put on a hat you go bald.

why didn't she get an ironic punishment for being such a queen bitch? amon is getting raped for his shenanigans. yeah she managed to point blank nuke herself, but what about her soul?
I mean she ate a point blank ultima is there even a soul after that to punish with a fancy reincarnation or something
>>
>>737160934
her ironic punishment is dying ignobly and in scorn by the son she specifically created and molded to be a useless piece of shit to suit her own ends

she is a narcissist, so eating shit after her worthless chud son gives her a snappy one-liner is the ultimate punishment
>>
>>737160934
Athena was sundered and killed. What you fight in P12 is her memory recorded in the Heart of Sabik.
>>
>>737161004
a replica of her son, mind you. her actual son moved the fuck on so hard she probably felt it from inside the crystal. She jobbed to the voices inside her own head.
>>737161070
and her memories just go outside of the crystal willy nilly? no host, no nothing? and the stupid crystal fished elidibus's soul as well?
the crystal is THAT powerful and we're just letting that little shit in sharlayan hold it?

Did they say which melee gear type BST uses?

athena's memories are no longer present in the crystal, along with the ability to cast Ultima. this is gone over in the epilogue quest

admittedly plot-induced stupidity so they can go back later and go "oh oopsie woopsie a fucksy wucksy happened that guy with the black auracite went nutty"

its going to come with its own left side armor. if you'd like to spend 20 minutes farming T10 for accessories and tome accessories. might be better worth your time to collect materia

so did BLU, but BiS was always a mix of their job gear and raid

well, we won't know what bis is till we get stats on the armor. you could just gather a full set of maiming, striking and scouting if you have 15 spare inventory spots.

Late to the thread, but...
The JP patch title is 彼方に至る路kanata ni itaru michi. Its means "The path that leads to far away places".

You idiots need to be protected from yourselves. We've never had it better in this game and I'm not going to let you schizos ruin it.

"jobs are so much less complicated than they used to be!"
the old jobs in question: 3-4 main buttons with linear combos and no resource gauges

>>737161647
AST being Time Mage is something they will never ever get over and its my second favorite thing to never-ever about in xiv

the first being summoners being happy with their class

Its not "crimson lotus". Its just "crimson". The Jp name is "The Crimson Liberators".
紅蓮 DOES mean crimson lotus, yes, but its also used as just crimson. When you see it as an adjective, like in the Stormblood title, its almost always just "crimson". The title is just describing the rebellion, with its red theming. As well as the SAM and RDM jobs being red themed. And Lyse's drip.

most unrealistic part of this story is that wol has not gotten a crumb of pussy yet and not a single character professing their love to them

the final blackpill for job design discussions

previous job designs weren't more complicated and this can be pretty easily verified by looking up old rotations
>>
>>737161881
unfortunately you'll just have to use headcanon. luckily pretty much every named character in the game is in play. including the twins

You're right. I mistook "至" for "天"
So once again now I have to be annoyed. Its basically useless to put these "hints" in titles if the titles aren't consistently translated.

We're talking about the canonical future she time travels back from, anon. Closed loop.

There's no closed loop. She's from another timeline entirely.
