is he a closeted furry?why did he add hroths? why did he say to the designers that wuk lmao had to be attractive?

>>737176249Maybe he's a scalie. His name is Yoshi and he added the lizard race first.
>>737176359can a furfag be into both scales and fur?
>>737176545> housamos most popular characters for years were Ophion, a dragon, and Horkeukamui, a wolf> Another Eidos' popularity poll has Xiaolong, a dragon, in no.2 and Fullhouse, a wolf, in no.1yes

>>737176249>wuk lmao>attractivethey didn't listen to him
>>737179756desu it's impossible to make a furry attractive
is it just me or are the more hroths players in-game than usual?
>>737180338> finally have good hair options> finally have hatsI saw a lot of people saying had to fanta in shb because they were disappointed by the severe lack of optionsFinally having options makes a race more popular
>>737180338It's just you
>>737180883they should remove the hairstyles and hats
>>737176249I know he admitted to Hroths being his creation when ShB came out to explain why they were opposite of Viera, which players voted in, but I've never heard this talk about him asking for Wuk to be attractive before.
Need lala

>>737181692no you don't
>>737176249>why did he say to the designers that wuk lmao had to be attractive?That was Miyamoto requesting that to Rare for Krystal.
>>737181796But I do
>>737176249>He doesn't have a irl Hroth playing gfGotta be honest, you're missing out on some fun.
>>737181868why do you need a lala?

So:>tomestones as we know them might be on the way out>extreme trial tokens might be on the way out>some indication that we will not be leveling past 100anything else? i'd like to see secondary stats become more interesting. the stats as they currently are:>chance to do more damage>chance to do more damage (dps only)>use attacks faster (some classes get no benefit from this, some use only a small amount to hit certain thresholds)>more mp (healer only, no healer needs it outside of extreme circumstances)>take less damage (tanks only, is significant but there is no content where its necessary)>% everything increaseskill/spell speed is fine as it is, though i do wish more classes could benefit from ittenacity and piety are fine, they just aren't useful because difficulty doesn't call for itdetermination is boring. i think its fine to have one boring stat. but only one. crit and direct hit are also boring but they're also indisputably the best stats in all situation. i see two solutions to this:>change how crit, direct hit, piety, tenacity and speed stats work>alter encounter balancing so that tenacity and piety are useful
>>737179669>the god of mmos>treats its playerbase like blazing retards>literally gatekept raids when ARR first released to only premade parties>later on unlocks matchmaking but only for the previous raid>only after 3 years that they allow current raid matchmakingThe GOD of MMOs cannot even comprehend that solo players can actually do their braindead dance choreography without faggots screaming through their mics

>>737186913you delusional fuck lmao, how many more years do they need to shove the same shit up your ass?
>>737188861We're still stuck in the void between shards. We're just living the dreams of long dead WoLs
my thoughts on bard:only time it feels like i'm doing something is during aoe. i feel like the increased DoT length actually makes it harder to keep them up as 45 seconds lets it slip from memory faster than 30. repelling shot should give more distance or be usable at any range. i also prefer bloodletter's animation/sfx over heartbreak shoti'm also not putting up a lot of numbers for the effort, the opener is far more complex than the rest of the rotation would have you infer. i feel like this is a problem with the entire concept of phys ranged
>>737186561I'll be at Anaheim but will probably sell the tickets. Should be lots of beggars there yeah?
>>737189549go in and buy some merch to scalp, THEN sell the pass
You lost.You will forever lose.You are a terminal loser and will rot with the rest of the terminal losers in your dead forgotten game.
Dumpy is that you?
>>737189647sorry, luckybancho is only a good metric when i agree with it. better luck next time
>>737186913I'm fine so long as I don't lose the parts I like about my job and the gameplay doesn't get turned into>1. gacha-tier mobileslop>2. required homework treadmill like half of other extant contemporary MMOs that aren't explicitly oldfag ones
>>737189386i think Bard is the worst ranged phys.needs a rework
>>737189709So true, lmao. Wait until luckybancho shows a slight uptick from the next expansion release, everyone will say "OMG DOOMSISSIES BTFO CHECK THE CHART!!! LOOK!"
>>737186913BST job gear has the same property as the old pre-order earrings, where they scale with your level and I'm 100% sure it's a testbed to apply that to the rest of the game in 8.0+.They're going to remove gearing for stats from the game and make it glamour only.
>>737190175i would love that, but where did you get the stats on BST armor?
>>737190175that sounds horrifically stupid
>>737190240I think he's postulating based on the claim by YoshiP that you can make the BST lvl 50 AF gear stronger through doing that special game mode.But I'm pretty sure it just gives you currency to turn in for a stronger version from a vendor, not automatic upgrades.
>>737176280kek fpbp
>>737189647brutal
Tell me, why are you all so mentally ill and keep harping on a game you clearly don't enjoy anymore? any sane person would just unsub and leave it, but you act like FFXIV is an ex girlfriend you never got over, but ah that comparison might be too alien for you since it requires ever having a girlfriend.
>patch msq trailers are never really what theyre about. >focus on alisaie>garlenigger slop>zzzzz padding about halibut that wont be revealed til .55another skip cutscenes patch.
I have a question to ask as someone who likes the game and has been enjoying Dawntrail and the game as a whole.What the fuck is the point of new Air Force maps? What a colossal waste of development time and effort (no matter how much or little effort that is). It has to be, bar none, the worst game mode inside of XIV.
>>737176249>wuk lmao had to be attractiveSounds like a personal struggle OP. Wuk Lamat is also voiced by a white boy from Kentucky named Brandon.
>>737183586There's nothing based about stupid looking faggots. What an ugly looking game, no wonder it attracts so many retards.
>>737190537if i would have to guess, variety for gold saucer stuff
>>737190537omg let people have fun.and they're not that much work. all the courses are in existing zones. just add some dancing npcs and the same stock air force one stuff that already exists. leap of faith maps would be a lot more work
>>737190780It's such a boring mode.And not only did they seemingly make/update environments for making those new "maps" for Air Force One, but now they've also saturated the Gold Saucer with 5 times more Air Force One than any other GATE.>>737190889I feel like the environment got at least a little altered/graphics updated.>leap of faith maps would be a lot more workFair, but also more interactive.They could've also added a new Cliffhanger, though.
>>737190950the new Air Force One course has priority because its new. this is the case with all new GATEs
>>737190950yeah they keep pushing AF1 too much, i keep seeing people complain about it in-game
>>737191057I know. That's another reason other than finding AFO dull for why I hate the new maps.>>737191068Every time they add a new map, it gets priority until the next new GATE. We had a lot of LOF because the last update before the 7.4 AFO update was the Sylph Leap of Faith, ergo Leap of Faith was added into the rotation more.So we're stuck with more Air Force One than any other type of GATE until we either get a new GATE activity, or a new map for an existing GATE activity.
>>737176249>why did he add hroths? Because a mammal furry race was the next to last option people wanted according to ancient data.>why did he say to the designers that wuk lmao had to be attractive?That's just common sense, why would you make a player race intentionally ugly?
>>737190537>What a colossal waste of development timeAnd you're talking about air force here? really? All they did was put an on rails camera into that old pirate dungeon.You're not even thinking about the several millions of dollars they wasted on cosmic exploration maps that are giant empty voids that people move on from in less than a month. Or even garbage like Chaotic and that deep dungeon hard mode boss. Air force should be the last thing on your mind.
>>737191183given his recent spate of decisions i genuinely think he thought big lion dudes were cool and thought other people did too
>>737191201It's mainly because I feel like Air Force One adds negative content to the game, and any new maps for it are just a skin. A new Leap of Faith can at least have different permutations of something or gimmicks. Air Force One is always the same gallery shooting mode on rails, even if you change the map.
>>737191183>why would you make a player race intentionally ugly?It does look ugly.
>>737191290So now its just a skin. You seem confused as to what a colossal waste of development time even is. Go take your meds 14 troon.
>>737191249It makes perfect sense, classically older MMOs usually had at least one very inhuman looking race, and mammals are a safer bet than insects, reptiles, or birds from a pure popularity angle.
>>737191396Weird behavior, but I'll take this as the signal to take none of your posts seriously hereon.
>>737186915>treats its playerbase like blazing retardslegitimately a good thingMMOs host some of the dumbest armchair developers as players you will ever imagine
>>737191453it makes sense if you're in your 40s or 50s. but anyone younger than that is gonna see furry bait
>>737190717I thought his name was Sean. Hope he ropes soon. Getting the job based on your social standing instead of merit is a sin.
>>737191512>MMOs host some of the dumbest armchair developers as players you will ever imagineNot wrong. I've encountered some real Dunning-Kruger types in those discussions.
>>737191201>several millions of dollarsi genuinely cannot see those maps costing more than 75k, solely in dev wages, going by FF16's budget
>>737190537air force one is fun, they added more maps for varietys sake, that's it. now stop being a faggot trying to paint your opinion as fact.
>>737190450It's been a skip cutscene expansion
>>737191290>It's mainly because I feel like Air Force One adds negative content to the gameI realize you're mentally ill but come on.

I wish Alliance Raids let you trade the coins for the set pieces. Once a week is brutal as fuck. It's not keeping the content alive, its bullshit.
>>737192798I find it fascinating that this kind of discourse seems to be largely a western thing. With japanese people nobody seems to care as long as it's a cute or appealing design.
FactThe Ivalice raids were the last time the devs tried
>>737192928i liked them but the ivalician shikari/samurai set was fucking bullshit
>>737192928>music taken directly from the games>only a few sets of armor actually look like the job they're portraying>2 minutes of swimming in rabanastre
>>737192840Fair point, honestly.Adding more sets to a vendor would be even more kino.
>>737192907i also care if it's cute or appealingfurry humanoids with paws are not cute or appealing
>>737192958Well now that glams have been unlocked for everyone you can make it>>737193038Needed more helmets instead of headbands imo
>>737191568> 40s or 50sso, most ff fans who've played more than one ff game, correct?
>>737193343about right yeah. i don't recall anyone ever saying kimahri was their favorite ff10 character
>>737193146zootopia sales disagree anon
>>737192928The gear looks awful, though. And the story is more other FF memberberries like the XI raid.They were overall pretty fun raids, though.
>>737193146Tell that to Sanrio and Pokemon.
>>737193407they cucked every blue mage character since ff5 though if his Blue Magic were skills instead of his limit he'd be more popular> ff5 blue can sodomize the game with insane strategies and status' unavailable to every other job> strago lore is just worse black magic> quistis stops mattering after disc one> quina has the worst Trance in the game and no fun blue spells that kneecap the gameThey must've thought blue mage was too good in 5 and screwed over every blue character since :/also> mighty guard is extremely late game> rikku gets a stronger mighty guard with stat buffs, spell nuls and regena damn shame.
>>737193558I'd rather have ugly armor than modern slopI haven't done the XI raids because I'm waiting for the free msq skip
>>737193558Hoping and coping Ivalice gear gets a tuneup and dye channels in 7.5 though they shouldve done that in celebration of the tactics remake.No, all we got was a housing portrait and character garb on the cash shop gaffgarions set is pretty goated tho
>>737186561>Fanfest fursuit furriesYou should see the Discord mods like Miuna.
>>737193764>I'd rather have ugly armor than modern slopDT actually has some pretty nice non-modernslop.I love Neo Kingdom gear.
>>737193558>can't dye them>big ugly arms>don't fit the jobsI guess maybe next expac we might finally get dyeable versions, like the CT sets did.
>>737193861yuweyuwhata, living memory 2, and treno gear is good too but> undyable in expac where they heavily advertised two dye channelsincredibly lame.
>>737193861The post-DT dungeon sets are nice, except all them aren't fucking dyeable
>>737193812Really feels like they stepped off the gas with regard to graphical updates to zones and gear (and they weren't exactly progressing at a rapid pace as was). Hopefully 7.5 has some more and then 8.0 has a load of graphically updated gear and zone updates.Feels like we got, what - maybe double digit gear sets updated at this point?>>737193960>>737193997Yeah, this shit blows. Especially given the context that DT is the double dye dungeon. It wouldn't have required that much work to make them dyeable.I know they'll just reuse them for leveling gear next expansion and make them double dyeable then, but they definitely cheaped out on that.
>>737193831You're really butthurt about getting banned from a discord, huh? Better show it to asmongold.
>>737194075>DT is the double dye dungeonexpansion*

>>737185650>>737185978
>>737193861I just can't play itSolution 9 represents everything I hate about ffxiv. Garlemald is tolerable because of ceruleum and the bunnies get a pass since they've been around since forever.
>>737194078Go ACK yourself.
>>7371939607.4 dungeon gear being undyeable gets to me. They're pretty cool sets, but you're basically stuck with using the pieces only if you have a majorly black glam anyway.I assume 7.5's dungeon won't even have new dungeon gear, but if it does, it also won't be dyeable.
>>737193831I hate that trannies have inserted themselves into the upper rungs of everything, attaining these positions specifically by leveraging their privilege as a "marginalized" person. They're the jews of video games.
>>737194195>>737194393You'll be expected to include the sentence "Trans rights are human rights" in your next appeal so start coming to terms with it.
>>737194078geez yeah actually it just hit me how many times i've seen complaining about that discord and tranny flags lately
>>737194378S9 is from a different shard tho.

>>737180338Hats, enough hair options to find something that fits.Although unfortunately half the male hair options still awkwardly hover at least an inch off some of the face models’ foreheads, but at least there’s headbands to hide that. A shame they’re also stuck with that posture still too.
>>737194640I personally don't like that discord and the fact it has a chokehold on the information acquiring and disseminating process of the community either.But I've decided I just won't interact with it in any meaningful way and exclusively use it as a tool to get translations for interviews, live letters, etc.If another discord pops up offering the same thing and it isn't so pozzed, I'd gladly use that instead.

Show me how YOU XIV it!We own /v/!
>>737195243making chocobo more reactive to emotes and giving them different animations depending on their role is apparently "the start" of updates for them so they've actually got ideas they're going to execute
>>737195506maybe they're gonna try and make pet classes again
>>737195556i see beastmaster as them nosing around the idea again, at the absolute least making pets matter more to scholar and summoner even if direct control over their movements will never really matter
>>737195506Yeah, it's not really indicative of what they wanna do. It's more of a "look guys we didn't forget this is a small thing to start off."So I'm wondering what they actually want to do.>>737195556If they have to put the work in for BST I can see them recycling that groundwork a bit.
>YoshiP I need this my job is kinda petless
So is Kate confirmed gone or is it speculation? I know Koji is doing the fan fest live translation which is something she was doing lately.
>>737195649picking chocobos for updates surprises and excites me, the little goobers basically haven't been touched since ARR

>>737196139because presenting speculation as fact is stirring up shit. kate isn't at her old position in the company. thats the only fact that we know. anything else is just hope. i do hope she can't touch the game anymore

>>737196293I also don't like her but I kind of avoid engaging with those questions as well because they just turn into a strange circlejerk.
>>737196590in general talk about her is very strange and chanting-in-a-circle
She's Krile.
>>737176249He likes lalas the most I thought. He doesn't like Yshtola or Honey B. HE recently discussed Halamurt's popularity, that probably upsets him that a cutesy aura is popular vs Wuk.

>>737197696Westwolves bros...Pyrehail doesn't really fit the usual naming convention. it has a literal meaning but whats the figurative meaning?
>>737197831maybe a final days callback
>>737197696>pyrehailare we burning ascians now?
i hope they show new character customization in fanfest
>>737197880thats the best one i could come up with for the literal meaning. but if they are dusting of meteion this early i'd be shocked.of all the antagonists she'd be the easiest to tack onto a new story though. anything involving outer space its super easy
>>737197975Any indication that we'll even get new character customization? I doubt they can unfuck their "spaghetti code" enough for that.

>>737198289whatever they're whipping hiroi with has been working. .3 and .4 were miles better than the entirety of 7.0-7.3. If he manages to make zero more likeable than she was in post-EW, i might consider us finally being back
>>737198657problem with meteion is you can't correct her. if you want to, she'll agree with you and want to help you find a meteion to correct
>>737176280>Yoshida has spent the last 5 years trying to appeal to Gen Z>He's completely irrelevant and unknown to themTOP KEK as they say.
>>737198750i mean 7.0-7.2 dammit
>>737198750I liked 7.2 too, to be honest. 7.2 and 7.3's big issues for me are still mainly Wuk, and they did well-ish enough at sidelining her (compared to 7.0) that I wasn't too annoyed.Naturally, 7.4 has been the best of the patches so far for us being able to get completely away from her.
>>737198657Why can't we get her back instead of Zero?
>>737198927she'll be in the final planet
>>737193831This is how trannies take over your hobby, they are terminally online so spend all their time and energy manoeuvring into positions where they control the spaces around the game and when in position they then deploy their political agenda and anyone who disagrees is ejected from the community.This is why people absolutely hate trannies and why FF14's community has been damaged beyond all repair by them. FF14 is fucked and you all know it.
>>7371988517.1 was fine for me in light of how funny it is koana rolled over on his preconceptions of his own life and parentage after asking a very basic question to the tribe he'd just been assuming shit aboutalso i too would immediately give my entire life for the sake of a cow i'd spent an hour brushing. unironically i love cows
is it just me or did yoshi p look like he aged like 10 years in the liveletter?
>>737176280FPBP
>>737197696>PyrehailI really hope that's not the expansion name, it sounds like utter shit in English.
>>737199056That shit was so ass and really just reeked of "we cut this from 7.0 now we're putting it back in 7.1 instead."
>>737199059he's been noticeably rougher since stormblood-shadowbringers
>>737199059>yoshitpiss has cancerAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAdt was a gift
>>737199098it was really really funny that koana receives one challenge to his worldview and goes "ok :) yay :)" so i liked it
>>737176249Good guy for drinking French wine
>>737199056i mean its not unheard of for a dude who's spent his entire life in an academic setting completely losing it to finding an actual passion. it was really, really abrupt though.Koana really should be hanging out with the Hhetso if he feels like that. Also, his parents were shit. BOTH of them dropping the kid and saving the ugly buffalo? lol
>>737199190we need more cookies and wine raid streams from him
>>737199169"we heard you thought wuk was a shit flanderized character... so we made koana one too :D"
>>737198640Remove gender. Make Masculine/Feminine animation "options".Like what Monster Hunter did.
>>737199169Its not that hard when it was exactly what he always wanted. His entire character is basically: >my parents abandoned me so fuck indians, I'll use the white man's technology to spite them.
>>737198640oh, and also thiseither he's on drugs or he's pretty confident that they're adding character creation updates because
>>737199059Notice his t-shirt as well 'losing isn't an option' in English. He choses clothing very specifically and he was trying to signal he's still in it for the long game, but it's corny as fuck. I remember some Anon posted about how he was trying to get himself a job at Blizzard last year or the year before, sounds ridiculous but there's an entire rabbit hole worth of proof Anon posted. I think that was his plan, to set FFXIV on auto-pilot after Endwalker with the new young team and have them take over and then move to Blizzard.But they fucked it up so bad and FF16 failed to leave a mark, he's got no option now as his legacy is tied to FF14, he has to rescue the game or that's it.
>>737199283koana came flanderized already
>>737199293>remove genderHe better not. Why do you think WoW bend the knee to these freaks by removing gender with body type?
>>737199059this game is killing him
>>737199461i can't see yoshida ever going to blizzard, he's clued in enough on streamers, game news, game dev trends and his own fanbase to know about blizzard's shenanigans of the past decade and know the company he liked in the past is not what it is now
KEKIsn't that true of any piece of media or entertainment you can enjoy it if your expectations are low? What even is this interview with Famitsu?
>>737199293Keep gender.Let job idle stances be used interchangeable regardless of gender, though.Female DRK idle for male, or male DRG idle for female, etc.
>>737199293They actually reference your gender quite a bit ingame. They have to rewrite text/change voice lines. I don't want to be a they/them
I've been skipping MSQ cutscenes since 7.1 but the prospect of a void expansion is tempting me to try again. I swear to god if Zero does one more friendship speech though I'm out. She was a great character in 6.1 and then by 6.5 you could see her dialogue coming from a mile away, because it was all about how friendship is great, every single patch.
Pre-Fanfest theory:8.0 is not going to be us going to the void or the first. It’s going to be an expansion on the source (largely Ilsabard probably) where we travel to locations and searching for “cracks” that lead to the void or the first. The goal in discovering these cracks is to find a way to untether the source from the shards. People were worried a void expansion would just be ShB 2 and this is how they get out of that.My worry is they’re so stick-in-ass about the void stories that they don’t include Unukalhai, Gaia, Cylva, and the role quest characters. I don’t think this would be a complete story without AT LEAST the first 3, especially since the basis for this theory was written in those quests.
>>737199779That's funny to me 'cause 7.1 is by far the worst of the patches.
>>737199380Its been something they've wanted to do for almost a decade now. ShB was originally going to do it, but then everyone started screaming for Viera when Fran showed up in Ivalice. Then they had to add the missing genders, then the graphics update. But this time around there's nothing using that part of the expac's budget, so the character creator is the obvious choice even if he wasn't talking about it so much.
>>737199880I personally feel like we'll get a half-expansion again. One half on the Source, and another half between several shards.
>>737199779I'm the opposite, I couldn't stand Zero as the MC back in Endwalker post patch, she was absolutely proto-Wuk. The thought that they've learned nothing and are going straight back to the same what made Dawntrail so insuffereable has me tapped out for good.
Idk in the trailer it looked very much like the WoL was walking into a newly made portal from the void to somewhere. If going by proximity that would mean the 11th.The problem with trying to tie those in(Especially unukalhai) is that it depends on us doing very optional content. They could make the normal raids required, but there is no shot in hell they make the full set of ShB role quests required.
>>737199969I can believe it. Like I said, he's been murmuring about it since DT media cycle, and he's still going on about it and saying "soon soon soon", so it makes sense in that aspect.But also because if they wanted to do a character creation update, but also knew they wanted to do a graphical update, it would make sense to do the latter first, otherwise you're basically creating even more work for yourself when updating it. Rather than having the current options to update, they'd have the current options + whatever there was from the character creation update.This way, they can have everything that's existed for years updated, and they can add new options post-update.
>>737176249who is this literal who asian?
If we've mashed the key and the crystal together now and we can use the crystal to travel to other places, then my teleport animation better change to opening a big ass Azem portal post-7.5 and walking through it as the cast ends.
Live Letter 7.5 Part 2 is on Physical Announcements, so woooo.Yeah, that's a pretty good live letter. Lots of good stuff incoming, I think we're gonna get a swerve or two for 7.5x at Fanfest (and as well, what the Ultimate actually is). Huge QoL changes and continuing on the upward trend that this expansion has been on.Huffing the copium for 8.0 Job stuff. That's the largest mountain that's been incoming all expansion and if they crash, it'll be a sight to behold.
>>737200171>They could make the normal raids required, but there is no shot in hell they make the full set of ShB role quests required.A whole lot of this.
After how he hyped up DT, I don't believe anything he says
>>737200290i think they kinda can't satisfy people who've been bitching for job reworks so for some people that'll crash no matter what they dobut they've already promised enough other huge changes that i'll be satisfied, strongly implying they're chasing a more horizontal progression scheme is exciting
>>737200403>strongly implying they're chasing a more horizontal progression schemeThey've said literally nothing of the sort. You're hard coping bro.
what is actually releasing with 7.5?
>>737199880They need to just be like "Hey, from this point on, the MSQ will reference things as if you did this side content, so it's up to do you if you'd like to check it out."
>>737200171>>737200384They could in 9.0 if they really wanted since at that point there will be 1 of every role that starts at 80+. Doing it for 8.0 would mean people have to get 10 levels on SGE, which is a pretty big ask for the average limsa idler.
>>737200403>i think they kinda can't satisfy people who've been bitching for job reworks so for some people that'll crash no matter what they doNot just that.But there is no way to satisfy everyone with whatever they do with the jobs. Hell, even current job design has people that like it, even if you might not believe it.They can't make 500 different designs for different groups with different tastes, so they'll have to commit to one way and accept that not everyone will like it.
>>7372004468.0 being a 'combat overhaul' is also something they've literally never said>there will be changes to combatis all we have. that might be jobs, that might be combat design, it might be how stats work
They forgot to show off the Crucible gamemode?
>>737200498Usual fare + some QoL stuffMSQ part 1, dungeon, trial, Alliance Raid, housing furnishing increase, dye consolidation, being able to put DT in the armoire and make glamour outfits out of all HW and beyond gear.
>>737200446MTL interview promising enuo is the final boss trial to use totems and that tomestones aren't relevant for gear in the future and doesn't mention or promise some kind of replacementwhat is this really supposed to mean if not higher horizontality on progression>>737200558yeah current job design is also really, like, fine and functional as far as it goes, another thing to consider on the teetering jenga tower that is the game
>>737200612dunno if they forgot. wild headcanon theory: you know how it shoes Halicarnassus (haukke manor hard) in the trailer? the battles are ARR dungeon bosses
>>737199293nah, just give both gender combat pose idles and add more walk/run/idle animations for everyone
>horizontal progression>true midcore content at last>job specs and talents>completely overhauled loot and rewards>open world has more activities than crimson desertAll of this was STRONGLY hinted at. Learn to read between the lines. Hopesisters we are FEASTING.
>>737200642>yeah current job design is also really, like, fine and functional as far as it goes,That's how I feel. But I'm also not fundamentally against trying something new either.I am most vocally against the mass group buff synchronization design. If we can get rid of that, at least, I'll be pretty happy.
>>737200693lalas will get actual butts first
>>737200693>true midcore content at lastVariant advanced was kind of a good attempt at that (in a technical sense). It just didn't have enough rewards/rewards of their own. Just pilfered from regular variant (and even then ti wasn't much).If they do something on that level more often but with more incentive, that will already help.
>>737200693i could see talents or skill alternatives, but not specs, personallyunless they give me artifact armors for each spec or branch. then i'll take it
>>737200642>that tomestones aren't relevant for gear in the future He never said that. Also he was talking about totems in the context of Enuo dropping 2. Its more likely they just change the numbers around and/or make them not take inventory space going forward. See >>737199568
>>737200802I can see them offering some minor gameplay altering stuff. Not full specs, but like "do you want to use x or y" and then one of those things is a new ability and the other is kaiten or something (on a SAM)And then just have a tree full of these smaller scale options.People will probably metafuck any fun that may be found out of it, but them's the breaks.
>>737200883yeah if they ever offer anything like that it's gonna come with the caveat there's an objectively best path
>>737200802i'd be happy with spell glamours. let me be a ice wizard
>>737195870>The board is allowed 20 Resident Evil threads that are just “Grace is cute :3” or Sherryposting to stay up at all hours, but we can’t have one thread on the non-schizo board to discuss one game.Why do I come here even? Might as well just rename the fucking board /NINTENDO AND CAPCOM/
You know it's a job designed by Mr. Ozma when they still haven't stopped talking about the core job mechanics even after 20 minutes. Maybe it's just me but this looks insanely complex so far.
>>737201038this mod hates 14 with a burning passion
>>737201065it's surprisingly in depth, kinda spanks BLU for general thought/complexity. ozma should be a job designer and not a raid planner
anons will get actual opinions first
>>737200954Always will be, unless the options are literally identical.Best case is that some will be situationally better than others, but even then, you'll have people just switch around to the meta ones.And then there's the options that might just seem cool. Again, like ones that bring Kaiten or Dark Arts back. Though I guess Dark Arts would be a little more fundamental than that. You get my point.
>>737201026super unlikely, especially given how unhappy they are overall with SMN-SCH in how it works, but I wish some jobs could kinda get options to cross over into other roles. Like going a Berserker route on Warrior and that making it a DPS rather than a tank. Or tank as a SAM.
>>737201065It's just a limited job, though. It can be complex as they like, no one's around to bitch at you for fucking up in singleplayer mode.
>>737201127actually i kinda wonder if BLU wasn't held back *because* BST makes it look dumpy by comparison
>>737201065You also know it's a job designed by him because he's incapable of doing anything different than what he's done before and that is making Beast Master into a limited job but somehow still make it into a gauge and GCD based.It's a limited job, but you have to build a gauge and use GCDs. What's the fucking point in it being a limited job then? Just make it a full job.
with 7.4 that removed restrictions to glams so you can now glam any piece of gear regardless of level and class (only the race starting gear and certain male/female pieces are locked). Along with that change you can also store all Artifact gear (combat and crafting/gathering) as gear sets (which take up 1 slot) into the glam dresser via a small button next to the item when storing BUT as of 7.5 Artifact gear AND post-DT dungeons can be stored in the Armoire.
>>737201065Its literally just FF11 skillchains anon.
>>737201239The community in general was kinda memeing the BLU update (before it was scrapped/kicked down the road). "It's just gonna be 10 new levels and 9 new spells and an achievement"Might be worth reconsidering what they can do to give BLU some spice.
Any news about plates? Because that's the number one reason I can't play new jobs: I don't have plate spots for new job specialized gear, I've already used all 20 of them! I really do wish they at least gave us one plate per combat job.
>>737201265>AND post-DT dungeons can be stored in the Armoire.Its all dungeons from 3.0 onward sis.
Shadowbringers baby here. What was wrong w/ the first version of blu?Or was this the part of blu's history when the kit was just different flavors of 220 potency atks and nothing else?
>>737201348I think what we've consistently heard is: "we'll work on more plates after we finish housing updates."So I'd say 8.0 is at least a fair shot.
>>737201375Nah.7.0 and beyond dungeon gear can be put in the armoire.3.0 and beyond dungeon gear can be turned into a glamour outfit.
>>737201342yeah the whole "we didn't have resources" thing makes no sense to me unless they had a change of heart on how much would actually go into it, i bet next update will suck my dick
>>737201412they started phoning in BLU updates after the shadowbringers one which did at least give us some masked carnivale puzzles
>>737201065if only it was a full job
Trannies killed the FF14 community, making everyone having to pass a purity test of bowing down to 'trans-rights' in order to talk about FF14. No wonder all the sane people were driven off.
>>737201497I think it's more that they decided to pour all the time and effort they had (for limited jobs) into making sure BST was as good as they were ever willing to/creative enough to make it, and that left them with little time for BLU. At the end of the day, they probably decided that a good introduction to BST > 10 more levels for BLU with nothing particularly new or riveting.I just hope they give us 2 BLU updates in 8.x to make up for it.
>>737197696>also ends with -ailSo is this the new theme of the current saga?
>>737201758DawntrailPyrehailCultistwailYoshifail
>>737201758Yes. Like Heavenswarders, Stormbleeders, Shadowbringers and Endwalkers.
>>737201816blizzardfail lol
That for all the interesting shit you could do with the void and its possible reclamation/restoration, they've decided to put all of that offscreen by "setting it up" post EW and then going "we'll check back on the progress later". And considering their rigid formula, the void is probably gonna be a purple tinted 'the First' (which is far beyond what it was when we last interacted with it), when we do check back later and if it ends up being were the expansion or part of it takes place. Nulling the unique unlivableness of the void and the associated restoration of it that could have been more interesting then "we fixed the biggest things offscreen, but now we need a big guy punched out to continue".
Can someone tell me what the appeal of limited jobs is? They feel like a massive waste of resources to me.
>>737201864shadowbringers... 2!up to and including getting sidetracked for dawntrail instead of following up on it after endwalker like heavensward and stormblood
>>737201913side content is good
>>737201913What resources, other than time? And for BST, it can be done solo now.
>>737201913This except ultimates.
>>737201913We really needed yet another way for retards to solo ARR dungeons.
>>737201913we cut down multiple dungeons and trials so that way you could have sub 3% completion ultimates and limited jobs SIR, you watch your tone!
Let's not rewrite history here my dude.I was there then too. I remember liking the storyline because it was another funny Urianger betrayal, and it fleshed out Alisae since she had very little character outside ultimate before these patches.I remember plenty of discourse if what they were doing was valid or not, and why them being villains would help us or not. People wondering what Hydaelyn will do, Minfilias sacrifice giving her something to her character since she was a nobody otherwise.It was a good story arc. Before we even knew about the first. And I know for sure not many people were playing because outside the story ffxiv was kind of a wasteland in HW unless you raided. Meaning that outside starting discourse at the beginning of a patch, mostly endgame raiders and hardcore people stayed, most of which usually clowns on the story at all times, not just that patch.
Guys. I think I miss Stormblood.Is something wrong with me?
>>737202160>outside ultimate an attempt was made
>>737201913I think people focus too hard on the "job" part of the name.It's basically just a piece of side content/minigame unto its own.

>>737203103Yeah like how WHM can instakill undead with Raise or BLM can just kill anything with Death. We can't allow those kinds of jobs into the game.

>>737204672I'm pretty sure I have the latest update (modarchive says it was in 2024) and that as far as I can tell only gives you armpit hairbut maybe I'm retarded
>>737205152I have no idea what to be honest.Maybe Cosmic Exploration? Its description says something about Wedge, and all sorts of groups involved with engineering have been pulled into cosmic exploration.
>>737199880ilsabard tranny cope.
>>737204312>Have you ever listened to his demo reels?i switched to JP in XIV the moment i heard him in 6.55i'm not going out of my way to listen a commietroon
>>737205171idk mods myself outside posting online anon sorry.I hope you find it and your hroth becomes the 8'5" masc daddy you long forkill whoever made the wolfgar mod that shit is so uncanny
>>737205245Honestly it could be fucking anything. My best guess is Gold Saucer since they haven't added a big mgp sink mount this expac.
>>737205302it would be easier if I didn't have crippling autism, maybe I'll just sum up the courage to DM someone or ask on discord
>>737205509> manderville hardyboiled bikeobv from 7.55 manderquest> colibriProooobably North Horn coin mount since Colibri are all over South Horn?> AxebeakDefinitely fauxleaves, almost every new faux mount has been some rando overworld mob> Platypus mob from FTanother North Horn mount, for the grindier currency, or else currency specifically from Magic towerCould be a silver coffer map drop but Idk they got a lot of flack for destroying the marketboard with rarer mounts being drops from SH coffers> Omega fistMgp or PvP though Im hoping any new mgp items are ff11 af gear we didnt get from windurst because I really want the corsair dark knight geo and scholar sets
>>737205862Colibri could also be from the ff11 raid.
>>737203669me calling for my retainer
>>737206083we've never had an AR mount from a raid.We COULD, I won't deny coulds, but I do doubt it.imagine them going back and adding mounts to old 3rd raids like the flight unit to Paradigm or mini-Yiazmat to Orbonne
>>737176249>hair like he 17>face like he 71
>>737205509Gold Saucer is a possibility.>>737205862Seconding most of these.Wonder if BST will get any mounts.
>>737206239Yes we have. The Nier pod exists.
>>737206335Thats mgp anon, you cant get pods from any nier raid itself.
>>737193831>trans rights are the same as human rights and not politicalBut human rights aren't real and are political, and no one has ever even outlined what exactly is a 'trans right', do they even know what the words they're using mean?
>>737205509We know they're adding something new to the Gold Saucer in 7.5x. Might be Omicron themed in which case an Omega MGP reward would fit.Even if it isn't thematically consistent they can just add it to the Gold Saucer regardless though.
>>737206248I've never seen such a young man
>>737206403I kinda hope they add that cake making valentines minigame to gold saucer, though larger to allow larger groups of people in the instance.Since they added two ff7 cash shop items the popular guess is the motorcycle minigame from 7, which would be fine by me.I don't see blitzball ever happening, having to make teams with 7-or more randos or join a blitzball discord would be insufferable.
>>737206572cake making and plant trimming minigames were both pretty nice
>>737206572it would be cool if it worked like actual FFX where you collect NPCs across Eorzea to fight in your team. that's how I'd prefer it be done
>>737206659> they allow shb npcs due to shb popularity> runar is the best npc passer in the game as a reference to ronso playerswould be funny but would everyone just use their default fit or be forced into the godawful Aurochs unis?
>>737194468>>737194523>>737194640>>737194823>>737199031What no one wants to acknowledge is that trannies never invaded our hobbies, its just that the forever-seething heterosexual nerds of eld developed autogynephilia in the 2010s and realized that they can troon out as a means to power. This is also why they're 100% always "lesbians." The call is coming from inside the house.
>>737206572The new GS stuff is almost certainly a collab of some sort given the way they've been hinting at it for a while. 7 is by far the most likely since 7R is releasing either this or early next year and needs all the help it can get with sales.
>>737206474He's only 17 you sick fuck!
>>737206987>The call is coming from inside the house.I'd say this is generally true for MMOs, Speedrunning, and FGC. These fanbases have the highest concentrations of trannyism and are also probably some of the most autistic fanbases with the highest propensity to be failed men. However, I do also think that trannies network with other trannies and weave their web this way. One tranny might not have been interested in a community, but if another tranny has already deposited themselves in a position of minor power, they might now become interested since being a tranny when a tranny is in a minor position of power seems to elevate any desirous tranny to that same position. Exactly like (((they))) do.
>>737206248During the WoW Covid period, so many content creators would glaze him saying "omg he looks so good for his age"No he doesn't.
>>737201038those are cultural phenomenon
>>737207579I wonder if he's even good at Smash.
>>737206987>This is also why they're 100% always "lesbians."You know what? I was kinda of glazing over the autogynephilia part of your part but then this woke me up because there was a troon who joined the FC I was in and was exactly like this. Wasn't into men, was only into women and had his profile picture showing he was the more manly than a lot of the men in the FC but he was cozying up to the women in the FC, it was weird not because of a man trying to talk to girls but because he was doing it under the guise of 'one of the girls' while sexually being very explicit and only interested in those women who were disarmed by him thinking he was just 'one of the girls'. It was weird.
>>737207819The hilarious part is trannyism only become rampant because woman didn't put their foot down. Like always thinking with their emotions instead of logic. So now they get to deal with the tranny mess, it's literally not my problem. If they reject a tranny they're transphobic. If they shit-talk a tranny they get the shit beat out of them because they're transphobic and it's woman-on-"woman" violence. It's so fucking hilarious. Foids deserve it though desu.
final fantasy xiv
>>737208451Online, even.
>>737208421That isn't entirely the problem. It was also pushed super hard by big pharma. A tranny is a patient for life, its incredibly profitable.
>>737208812Well thanks to magatards/cuckservatives/supreme court. All trannies can now sue big pharma to become millionaires. Being an honest person in today's world is fake and gay that is why I got VA disability nigga.
>>737208915Even if you don't like trannies making big pharma more legally vulnerable is objectively a good thing. Hopefully they get their vaccine immunity stripped too.
soooooooo..........................no shadowbringers for free trial? kinda disappointed but not surprised
>>737209213would be the kind of thing to get announced at fanfest
>>737209213they would never put shb in the free trial because no one would ever subscribe again
>>737209213It can still happen.But to be fair, ShB is kinda the carrot on a stick expansion at the moment.Everyone always talks about Shadowbringers.It's a good reason for people who are all the way at the end of Stormblood to feel incentivized to purchase the complete game.
>>737209213I would understand if they never put ShB on the free trial. It's by far the best MSQ. It might even convert subscribing users to ditch their real account and make a permanent free trial account for whenever they get the itch to play.
>>737207819but what about the ladyboy type trans who are into men and just want to be housewives?
>>737209213I look like this
>>737209213Free trial fags deserve less than nothing. You should be stuck in a poorfag only DC to stop flooding paying DCs
>>737209606Those aren't autogynephiles then. Those are homosexual transsexuals and they usually don't retain male interests like gaming so you'll never encounter them in mmos and the like.
>>737209213>they put shb in the free trial in 7.5>they put ew in the free trial in 8.5>the first thing new players would have to pay for is dawntrail
>>737209606>but what about the ladyboy type trans who are into men and just want to be housewives?Those are, I can't believe I'm saying this, "normal" trannies. That's how a tranny should be if they're going to be trannies. As much mental illness as it takes to want to be a tranny, they at least are not deluding themselves. You've seen that YouTube video where that one ladyboy says >"I'm not layDEE, I'm ladyboy!"A western tranny would never say such a thing. He would get pissed, display his unmitigated testosterone, scratch his 5 o' clock shadow, scratch his balls, and then demand in a deep, masculine voice for you to refer to him as a biological woman.
>>737209856well maybe not mmos but they like more feminine games like the sims or AC
>contrarian garlenigger larpers are just wowfagswowee what a reveal.
>>737209213enough freeloadersif anything, DT should be 1/5 its current price and stay like that forever
>>737209213I think ARR to the end of Stormblood for free is actually pretty generous as is.
>>737189647Why hasn't there been an updated version of this now that Q1 is over?
>>737210714it surveys every three months, going by financial quarters is more by coincidence than purposeful timing, next is in may
>>737189647A non-zero amount of the drop off is people privating their Lodestones.
>>737211020those are also trend graphs and not real population counts, trend graphs are the only ones that come in easily digestible visual aids
>>737201038>WHATABOUT OTHER THREADShangs u by the noose nobody cares nor are you magically exempt
>>737211020wait, they added privating lodestones recently?
>>737211163I marked it on the graph, so not "recently", but yeah recently. That data is collected via Lodestone, and you'll notice the first drastic dropoff after the ability to private your Lodestone was introduced.
>>737211163about two years ago
>>737211227>>737211254what data specifically is it based on?
>>737211323niggers were stalking people
>>737211323luckybancho checks your most recent achievement notifications to see if you're actively playing, makes an educated guess based on that data
>>737211020>Wow players not XIV playersIf we were in 2022 you'd be arguing that the game is doing better than ever because of those numbers. You only choose to try and bullshit up chicanery because you know reality is against you when even Square Enix has been on record saying they know the game is not where it needs to be.You are lying out your ass so much the White House Press corps ought to hire you to spin bullshit for them.
>>737211323Achievement data which has always been privateable.
>>737211323>what data specifically is it based on?
>>737211370>>737211420I just checked my own character's profile and I can't look at achievements there.I never actively toggled it off.
>>737211397I'm sorry that you're upset.
>>737211397shut up libtard, it's embarrassing and cringe that you would even think that the president of the united states has anything to hide
>>737209963Nah. I'll eat my hat if fanfest doesn't announce, if not at the first then 2nd or 3rd, that there'll be a way to expedite to 8.0 for everyone, not just influencers. They know DT was a blunder, they're not going to try and have people pick up the game when they know how difficult it is to sell "You have to push through so much old content to join your friends" and then have people have to play the worst received and most damaging expansion. At a minimum it'll be some kind of hyperspeed MSQ if not a total skip. IE let you complete an expansion in 4 hours. You could damn well shrink the entirety of 7.0 to maybe not 4 hours but definitely 6-8 if you really cut the fat and just kept the dungeons, trials, and major moments.>>737211523It's the natural gravitation towards bombastic language that happens on 4chan. There's an old pic of someone with a neutral expression, a stick figure, typing out a message in caps lock full of profanity. I just no longer tolerate people doing 1984 tier lying with a straight face anymore. I find it very disagreeable. But eIther you're rage-baiting in which case you've got the better of me, or you're a sincere Dawntrail apologist in which case you've clearly lost given how terribly received the expansion was. And no attempt of baghdad bob revisionism will ever change that. The game is going to do better going forward purely because of learning what not to do with DT, and then you'll come up with new lies for why the population cratered during DT and climbed back up with 8.0.Maybe you'll blame it on AI and RAM.
>>737211879I don't agree with this logic. There is no "catching up to play with your friends" other than maybe ARR. Your friends can always play with you at the point sidecontent is unlocked.There's no "catching up to play with your friends." There's "catching up to the friend that groomed you to be their newest static slave for le ebin endgaem"
>>737209213>putting the story everyone paids for for freeLOLare you retarded?
>>737211020Cope.
>>737211020Did Bancho ever mention this in their graphs? If not, it seems that they have an interest in making the game appear less popular than it is
>>737211956It means your friends have to sync down to much lower level content with less abilities and less challenge, and that you physically cannot joint them on non dungeon/roulette stuff like Occult Crescent, raiding and so on. So you are obligating your friends to babysit the lowbie and also muzzle themselves on any story content for what comes later. The chance of finding people to do older savage content is generally much lower than if it was current, unless you can get your friends to run it synced up they're going to do it unsynced and the experience will not be anywhere near the original.>>737212267Bancho has been in the business of documenting the stats for years upon years. Unless you think there's some H*cking chud conspiracy to downboat Dawntrail because of transphobia they're not trying to sinisterly hide something. They were happy to show how great XIV was doing in the past, now it shows the numbers are bad. You can either go>That must mean something bad is happeningOr you can call it fake news and try and pull some pilpul horseshit to justify it because your ideological motivation, be it contrarianism or progressivism, demands you never be wrong, ever.I hate DT and I like XIV. My only ideological motivation is a good fucking game.
So as of now it seems a few times are likely-ish (ranging in likelihood) based on statements>Character creation update>More housing updates (interior size separate from house size, vertical axis added as a baseline)>Some manner of job redesigning (we don't know the extent)>Cross DC PF heavily hinted at being on the way
>>737212597>So you are obligating your friends to babysit the lowbie and also muzzle themselves on any story content for what comes later.TL note: your friends are playing with their friends through combat they themselves likely enjoyed at some point as well>The chance of finding people to do older savage content is generally much lower than if it was currentThere is more to the game than savage. Savagebrain is self-destructive. By those standards, 1/3rd of the Arcadion is already old, irrelevant content. Pandaemonium is entirely irrelevant, and so are the old variants&criterions. Everything except "current tier of raiding" becomes irrelevant.All I hear is that people don't actually want to play with their friends. As mentioned before: they want a static member to groom.
>>737212637Tbh that’s all I really want is the pf all together
>>737212597Yes, but why wouldn't they point out that their data could potentially be skewed if they are trying to give the best idea of how many people are playing?
>>737212796>1/3rd of the Arcadion is already old, irrelevant content2/3rd of the content*
>>7372127981. not sure if this is about ddosing instead2. you know how it goes: always take it with a grain of salt until you see more
>>737211879>you're rage-baiting >you're a sincere Dawntrail apologist >you'll come up with new lies for why the population cratered during DT >Maybe you'll blame it on AI and RAM.I'm just confused why you've now attributed a litany of different arguments to me, none of which are things I have said myself.
Anything worth checking out in Anaheim aside from Disneyland?
>>737212267As far as I know, Bancho has not made any notes regarding the fact that their data comes from Lodestone and that the largest drop off in their data comes immediately after SE implemented the ability for players to private their Lodestones. They do say it comes from Lodestone though.
>>737213584I think he doesn't really make any statement regardless - just presents the information as it is.

>last expansion before people even had any idea of what the theme of 6.5 was, they already knew Dawntrail was the next expansion>this time we will know the name of the new expansion like less than a week before 7.5 comes out
>>737210369It's insanely generous, you're getting ~85% of the game as it was during Stormblood's actual existing window (the missing 15% is market board and retainer access and other chat features)
>>737214545speaking of, did anyone find out about the name "Dawntrail" before fanfest?everyone was hopping on westwolves but that turned out to be jack shit.I think SE might put out fake trademarks in order to throw off leakers, they haven't gotten a name right so far.let's not forget that they thought Forspoken was Endwalker
>>737214676>get to experience ARR, HW and SB MSQ all the way to the gate of ShB>get to do PoTD and HoH>get to do Eureka>get to do Sky Pirates and Ivalice>get to do Alexander and Omega>get to do Warring Triad and Four Lords>all the Beast Tribes on the way if you care>Ishgard Restoration>all the gathering & crafting jobs up to that point including fishing>for the low low price of $0 Crazy when you think about it.
>>737214882People really don't stop and think about how fucking big of a game FFXIV really is these days
Did ya win, son?
>>737214903Admittedly mainly because a lot of those are one-time experience. The trial series, raid series, Alliance Raid series. They're great, but you're not likely to do much with them afterwards.Eureka, PoTD/HoH, Ishgard Restoration and gathering/crafting in general can last you a while, though, if you bother to engage with it.Beast tribes are generally minimal in the way of content (as all reputation farming tends to be), but due to their forced time gating can also "last" you a while.Not that I have an issue with that, but it makes it easy to dismiss.
