is it worth starting as a free player? I heard F2P is now including another expansionalso, is the stuff after shadowbringers worth subbing for?

I’ll summarize the upcoming thread:WoWtroons: no the game sucksFFXIVtroons: yes the game is goodNormal people: MMOs are for autistic trannies
>>737583486>also, is the stuff after shadowbringers worth subbing for?Not yetUnless the new expansion becomes the best expansion which is a VERY HIGH bar
>>737583634trannies are true hardcore gamers you can't deny thatchuds only play FIFA, NBA and GTA
No reason not to just try it. ARR, Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers are A LOT of game together, so you'll definitely know by the end if you want to keep going.
you need to samefag from more devices to make this walking falseflag shill thread believablethis is just pathetic, nignog
>>737583486f2p is a fun stipulation to play under but if you feel the urge to pay, and do, there's no going back to f2p status
>>737583486nope rest its a shit conclussion of the post 5.3 patches, after dawntrail its included free to play and you finish that shit yes
>>737583486It's free, just play if you want to. Shadowbringers will be free probably by the time you reach it and it's the best MSQ.
>>737583486Just give it a try, it's free. It's not like your time is valuable anyway if you're considering playing this.
>>737583486Think of it as 4 back to back Ff games
>>737583595>if you like jrpgs you'll like ff14.But FF14 is nothing like a traditional JRPG outside of "There's a story"
>>737583486xiv is a glorified VNit isn't worth playing unless you want to sit on your own and do the story
>>737583486why ask?just download the free trial and try it outbut if you must know, the start of the game is slow as fuck, 50+ hours before it gets good type slow

I can't way how awesome summoner will be this new expansion!

XIV combat devs are discovering that buffs don't need to only be 5% damage up every 120s. Welcome to the 90s
DOTBROS WERE SAVED
I haven't been paying much attention but I think what I've heard is good?it really depends on if every other job in the same class gets the same exact shitwhich would sucklike I don't want SCH to get the exact same shit that WHM has gotten
evercold shapes up to be some actual fucking kino. they literally listened to most complaints.

Not one thing I saw in the Dawntrail fanfests made me want to resub to the game and that never changed.We're one fanfest in and I'm already sold.

So BRD is basically EW SMN with some new tricks? Will SMN get to be cool now?
man this guy saved the game, gigachad
Im sorry for doubting you Mr Prime, my knees are shattered!!!
>>737588957I'm iffy on the story so far, but I didn't have the ick that the DT initial trailer gave. It does come off as somewhat bland, but at least inoffensive. Job gameplay is good. Hopefully content design is good, and patch cycles are faster. If they can get those two things down, itll be great
>Have to wait til July for more evolved job showcasesPLD/BRD/WHM/DRG fags cant keep getting away with it
>tank and healer basically the same with less buttons>DPS are flavour townI need a pocket tank and healer now.
no, it's notjust play a good singleplayer game instead since you'll be stuck pressing 1 attack button and 1 mount button for 100 hours
>>737589060given that they're doubling down on>tutorial jobs need to be easysummoner will actually be 1 button now

are these showcases with the lv 110 skills included? i wonder how you get the skills now in general while leveling from scratch?
I might change the jobs that I actually play for the first time... ever
Whats up with all the AI bot replies ITT?
This will really shine depending on how they design future fights
>It took a former LoL player to save the game
>>737589093literally me
>freestyle rotations>you have you actually think and use your brain and be a good playerI can't believe how hyped they made me for removing like half the fucking buttons.
MSQ will be SHB retread, slop enjoyers will love it and people with taste will recognize it as ok at best, gameplay will shine the brightest but raiders will still bitch because they can't spreadsheet their rotations.
Did I miss sage?
>2 Minute meta dead>Healers actually have to use GCDs to heal like on ARR instead of depending on one million redundant oGCDs while spamming their fillerGame's fucking saved.
pvpchad here, i was right the entire time
My only mild worry with Evolved mode is it feeling more boring at lower levels when youh aven't unlocked the fun shit but meh, it's not like that's been great anyway with the current system
>>737589135I genuinely hope this will kill fflogs autism
>>737589116no they wouldn't show the new skills yet
>>737589135half of those buttons literally just did the same thing but with higher damage
>>737589145No. They just did 4. PLD, DRG, WHM, and BRD

Evercold still sounds like a stupid name to me, but this new Evolved Mode may have sold me.

Will the new expansion fix the community?

I can't stop smilingA LoLfag saved the game
Thank him NOW.

I'm 100% not joking, this is all excellent and i'm very hyped but it means actually nothing if Hiroi is still writing

>>737589525I already played on XIVCombos, this is nothing but a bonus for me.
>>737589364I BELIEVEDI ALWAYS BELIVED
They are going ahead in turning it into an action game.
This is the best change in XIV history since glamour plates and Im NOT joking.
>>737589525OUR SONG OF HOPE SHE DANCES ON THE WIND!HIGHER! OH HIGHEEEEEER!

>>737589525WoWfags are DEVASTATED holy FUCKhow could they EVER possibly recovertheir game gets a PRIDE PARADE and ours gets saved
>>737589158I mean maybe they are going to shuffle things or just say fuck it, whatever skills you got unlocked, you get to use them everywhere now. Perhaps they are rebalancing older content to account for players having a full kit in sastasha.
what? bosses will move around more now?
>>737589595
>>737589582It's 16 buttons per job.You will probably finish all jobs' bars in 30 minutes.
rebornsisters?
>2m meta gone>New job stuff looks amazingHoly shit, all we need is for battle content to have proper teeth now.
Guys I can't endure being a Rebornfag for 9 more months.
wtf is going onam I dreaming?is this really the XIV dev team?it's like they read all of my posts in these threads and made the changes specifically for me
>>737589582I switched to using an MMO mouse recently, so I have to relearn all the jobs anyway.
>>737589582The good part is they only have 16 buttons max
>>737589603good. let the healers heal more, let the tanks parry, let the dps actually go off more than every 2 minutes.
>>737589364they gave the giga autist power instead of kate
>>737589638Stop man. I mean I get this is 4chan but you don't have to be an edgelord to fit in.
I WILL FREE US FROM THE WHEELLL

>>737589637They won't auto-auto-raidwide-buster you while you cumblast them with your opener anymore.
This opens up new encounter design so much holy fuck. Might start seeing stuff that was more like early XIV with enigmatic mechanics.
Hello its me again! Sorry to be a bother but would anyone mind spoon feeding the new changes announced so far?
>>737589487FUCK raiders they don't deserve ANYTHING

why does SE only lock in this hard on the back end of financial hardshipimagine if they actually stayed consistent
you guys ready for winter shadow bringers?
>>737589634Their latest patch was so filled with bugs the devs had to do a post about it and even the lorefags are tired of the millenial writing.
>>737589719>appears in the msq again>frees us from the wheel
EVERY STEP WE TAKE
>>737589654seriously dt is starting to look like a load bearing expansion while they worked on this
WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T THEY REVEAL THIS IN THE KEYNOTES????
>>737589658these 9 months will be fucking longwhich is good because the older i get the faster time flows
Nothing-ever-happens-fags when Something actually happens
>>737589717We're so back
>>737589736Just mash your buttons now nigga, its not gonna matter in 9 months
If you didn't unsub during DT you don't deserve any of this.
finally, no more bosses designed around 2 minute buff bullshit
>>737589717It's dead. We're free anon.
>>737589659I think DT genuinely scared them even more than people claimed.
>>737589545Jap train Chad's saving us all
>>737589393Reborncucks are just going to be left behind at this point, there's literally no reason to play it with how good Evolved mode is.
>>737589487We just need to be louder than them for once
>>737589493Mobility isn't something BRD lacks even in this new version, although I guess it could be useful to scam out a long cast while sitting in an AoE marker.
Pure rancid dogshitIf I wanted to just play WoW I'd go play fucking WoW. Will they make dungeons not boring as fuck with these changes? Fuck no LMAO
>>737589694Hopebros we WILL end the cycle
Really curious how AST will look
>>737589759That’s just large corps in general.
>>737589714Hey that was what I was thinking. I had zero faith in them. Glad they're proving me wrong.
>>737589694Just got a new image to post in wow threads
>>737589714damn brat... tch...
This means that jobs could feel more varied because they're not all bursting at the same intervals. Like how DRG has their limit break jump now.
>Its easy mode>Its like SF6 modern controlsHow does that ash in your mouth taste?
EVERYTHING TROONS.TIE THE NOOSE LETS GO TIE THE NOOSE LETS GOEVERYTHING TROONS.
>let's cater to wrathcombo trannies>that'll surely save our cratering game
>>737589158 (Me)HOLY SHIT THEY'RE EXPLAINING THIS RIGHT NOW THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST FANFEST IN HISTORY
so are they changing the whole combat or what? (downloading the demo, so I want to know if i should learn it or do just whatever until the new patch)
Is the evolved reworks and shit coming with warmthbringers on launch or is it coming in a patch before hand?
>>737589775Because then it would be 4 hours long
>Getting an ARR dungeon or raid wont feel like cancer anymoreHNNGH
HOLY FUARKLV 50 FULL BUTTONS

reborn fags on suicide watch
>>737589779>>737589790holy fuck my dickguess I'll be back after all
>>737589771Nah, it's not quite that. DT was complacency, they were firmly in the idea of how this could be going forwards and even admitted as much. The sheer revulsion and player drop made them shit their pants so hard that once FFT remaster was finished they asked the CEO for more budget just to try to unfuck this mess.
>>737589859It'll be 8.0.
THEYFIXEDEVERYTHING
Now all they need to do is to not fuck up the MSQ.
Literally no reason to use Reborn aside from contrarianism.
>>737589857It's not a complete combat rework. It's more like they're changing how the actions work.
THEY EVEN FIXED LOW LEVELS
I embrace our XIV combo overlords.
>>737589873No more wanting to kill myself when I get Crystal Tower

>>737589482>there are subhuman reborn players in this thread right now
HOLY SHIT HOLY FUCKING SHIT
This is the face of the man who saved this game. Thank him for his service.
just tell me whos the main story guy and I'll finally rest easy yoshida
>>737589908i get they don't want to rip the bandaid, but they shouldve just ripped the bandaid and full send evolve
remove levels then, leveling 50 to 110 without feeling substancial changes is useless.
The trancers are going to kill themselves after this.
I was unsubbed so long I lost my house
>>737589857>so are they changing the whole combat or what? pretty much. jobs definitely getting changed massively, but we need to see bosses first. but going from what they been saying so far and what they promised and uphold, we might be eating good.
Fuck it, just phase out reborn mode. This looks so much better already.
>>737589918ok, thanks anon
It's perfect. As long as the MSQ isn't a piece of shit with a tranny English VA, they not only hit a homerun, they hit a grand slam
I'M GOING INSANE
>>737589429Brd has some cast times for bigger skills
>>737589943Thank you for your service, Tamaki
>>737589945they're not gonna tell us until Berlin are they
guys i stopped playing in 6.1 how fucked am i?
How hyped are you for your main job's evolved mode?
Guess that confirms the new tank is a full main tank
Paladin is THE tank
Lancilot status?Someone needs to check on him
>>737589857Depending on the job. Encounter design is going to be just as important, since current encounter design revolves around 60/120s cycles and the new job design seems to be a lot more freestyle.
THE SPLIT DAMAGE AND MITIGATION TO MT AND OT
Haven't been watching, how is AST going to work with only 16 buttons?
>Saves PvP>Saves PvE>Saves Job Identity>Saves Role IdentityMISTER OZMA WHO?! YOSHIP WHO?!
what what the FUCK, there's actual different tank sub roles now
>>737589968>Fuck it, just phase out reborn mode. This looks so much better already.That definitely seems like the idea, but will probably take 2 years.

>>737589943Thank you so much bro, saved my favorite game
Oh we might get HP consuming DRK
>gnb survived the main tank fuckeryoh thank god.
>>737589496How would you even quantify a 'perfect dodge' though, attacks snapshot in this game, if you're in the orange when the cast bar or animation finishes, you're taking the hit even if you step out of itthey'd have to change how attacks work at an engine level and basically retrain the entire playerbase that the orange/blue marker is just to show where the attack happens, but that you can still dodge/parry the attack with a well-timed skill
fuckI thought it would be 2 old tanks and the new one for 3 main tanks
HAHAHAHAHA, GNB, WAR AND DRK ON THE KEKSHED
>DRK the offtankuh I thought OT was for bitches??
Thank god I won't have to fight for a spot with the new Tank Job.
>>737590028They just went over that and they're changing it for EC

>>737590063DRKs always pissed and moaned about being MT, so this suits their baby bitch needs.
What happens if my MT dies as War? How am I suppose to main tank the boss while he is dead?
TOTALBALANCETRANNYDEATHNOW!!!!!!!!
>>737590018There's now a low double-digit percent chance that MNK will be fun again.
>>737590085I mean, PLD by itself is a fantastic well designed job, doesn't really need that many changes
>WAR in the cuck shed now
I'm genuinely very impressed by all the news that came out today. I really didn't have high hopes but they're doing some good shit
>>737590020Yeah, dual shield viking FF2 style
>>737590043I think they're just keeping it in case reception was bad and they had something to fall back on, but everything looks really, really good.
>>737590117The leaked tank supposedly uses a shield too. Shield tanks run this bitch.
>>737590080>>737590063Non-Evolved can be MT
KEEEEK JUST FUCKING REMOVE REBORN MODE
>we are back to fighting over who is the main tankdid i travel back to fucking 3.0?
>>737590135Then you did a bad fucking job explode
>Only PLD and new tank are main tanksHuh. Good thing i was already experimenting with all tanks already.Fuck. I don't even know what to main anymore.
>>737590098Yeah like, this change in stormblood will be okay but right now up to LV 110?
>warrior is ot nowfuck this shit
Are you guys REBORNKEKS or EVOLVECHADS?!
>>737590169that's not how it works, these are general changes you fag
NOT ALLOWED IN MY PARTY:Crystal server cucksSwitch 2 playersReborn contrarians
>>737590198xd pick up a shield bitch boy
>wow introduces cooldown based damage where you do jackshit outside of your cds>at the same time ffxiv announces they're going away from that designMidnight looks even worse now
My only issue is this still looks like the low-oGCD EW SMN type design.
I am Main Tank main btw.
>>737590179Squeenix explicitly says who's who now, so people's opinions don't matter.
>>737590198you must be a better man...
>>737589658get a combo plugin of your choice and start learning
>>737590038Like old AST, different cards for different situations
>>737590218Literally just said it
>>737590219switch 2 reborn MT warrior here
The current system is shit so I'll take anything new on the slim chance it'll stop me from falling asleep playing this game. However, it's obvious Reborn is just going to be put on palliative care and the game will be designed with Evolved in mind. They should just be honest and tell people to get used to playing Evolved and to ignore Reborn.
>>737590214EVOLVE GAAAAAAAAWWWWDSSSWE RUN THIS SHIT!!!!
STRIKING DUMMY DIED FOR YOUR SINS
>>737590135You're still going to be able to hold things down long enough until the MT is raised. You aren't going to suddenly lose your massive health and passive mitigation advantage and utility.
>>737590198no one knows who actually is what yet
>>737589719>The hero who shattered the wheel and brought salvation to the worldMy knees... They're already bent...
I thought it was universally agreed DRK was the designated OT, confused why people are surprised by this
>>737590179Fighting who? they said it very clearly, if you are a big holy gigachad PLD then you are the main tank, getting both the female and femboys healers, after the DPS are done with them then maybe the sissy off-tank can fuck them
You are now imagining Evolved SAMYou are now imagining Evolved NINYou are now imagining Evolved BLMYou are now imagining Evolved AST.
Wait so if I pug a fight as a WAR/GNB/DRK and the other tank is a pussy who doesn't wanna MT I'll have to use Reborn Mode?
>He plays a cuckchair Job
its just TBN but it looks so satisfying
>PLD back to main tank roleBASEDBASEDBASED1.0 GAWDS WE ARE SO BACK
>>737589873hoooly yeah this sounds okay
>>737590038Cards are going to be random with two buttons total
OT is the thinking man's role.
I hope they let people queue as MT or ST in 24 man content. Being a counter based tank that doesn't have aggro sounds asinine.
>>737590315Kaiten....has returned
>>737589658Perfect time to catch up on some other games for me. Was planning to take a break anyways.
>>737590289Anon...>>737590020
>no more 2 minute meta means bosses aren't locked to it eitherkino fights incoming
wait...how are reborncucks supposed to play new content if they don't get all these fancy movement abilities and are still stuck in the 2 minute rotational design?
>>737590315I can't wait for Evolved Mnk.
>>737589732Will we see the return/reintroduction of part breaks like some ARR enemies/bosses had?
>>737590317They said it won't really matter outside of Savage and Ultimate.
>>737590268I have a feeling they'll do that for 9.0. Have both for this expansion to let people get used to evolve and then say they're removing Reborn for 9.0 and forward. There's no way they're going to want to balance around 44 jobs variants.
>>737590315>You are now imagining Evolved BLMi wonder how mobile it will be
>>737590320>Action to counter enemy attacks>TBN on DRKguess you know what got gutted this time.
>>737583486This might be the best deal on a free game because it's one a ton of people paid a fuckload for. I'd try it out if you're interested, and if you've played for a while and don't like it, you can just uninstall. If you do like it and the free trial ends with you wanting more, then you can buy expansions.
>>737590293I'm so scared of TBN getting nuked. It's basically a MT skill from how they described the countering idea
>>737590339i've always loved being able to heal people to full on war, so i'm glad about this
yoship: evolve won't be an easymodeyoshi some hours later: this new mode will make it easier for people to learn a jobthis guy...
>>737590315I'm expecting AST to be COR at this rate.
>>737590315>evolved blmFIRE 4... 2...
>Only four jobsBOO!
>>737588691Is this going to kill XIVCombo/RotationSolverReborn?
>>737590363There's no 2 minute rotation in both.
>>737590116>I like the way this sucks
>>737590147>left flank opo>right flank raptor>back coeurl >blitz changing depending on the combinationThat’s how I can see it going
>>737590362>New and evolved fights just in time for the Evangelion raid
>>737590395maybe the "hardmode" sucked ass you tranny
>>737590395>retardSkill floor and skill ceiling are not the same thing.
based autist saving xiv combathopefully MSQ gets the same treatment
>>737589838Yep, no more buff alignment, no more drifting or having to hold DPS, you just fucking GO and fight how YOU want to fight
>>737590053>HP consuming DRKstop anon...don't give me hope...
>>7375903632 minutes is just dead across the board.
>Great artifact armor for a while>Get's shown off in the liveletter>Now a main tank>Starts in the best city>Is tasked with protecting the cutest leaderI just keep winning as a PLD chad...What I'm hearing makes me want to resub, but DT fucking sucked so I'm keeping my hopes down.
>>737590389>I'm so scared of TBN getting nuked. It's basically a MT skill from how they described the countering ideaWat? OT is for group damage mitigation, you just get to toss more TBN on other people or the MT.
>>737590395they already showed with DRG that evolve will even be the more difficult version, a low entry barrier does not mean that the floor is also low
>>737590416the edging until july is real
>>737590240Yeah, BRD definitely looks a lot less busy than its current incarnation. DRG seems like it's still got punchy moments with high APM, but it's spaced out and not keyboard mashing every minute while falling asleep during the moments in between.
>>737590395Retard
>>737590320so are they going to do a role-split for healers as well? are we going back to healer/shielder splits?
I wonder if they'll eventually change old content for this
>>737590020tanks not all feeling the same sign me up boys
>>737590315>>You are now imagining Evolved NINSHOW ME NOOOOOOW YOSHI P
wait...does this mean no more tank swaps?
>>737590424You'll still have people in Reborn using it.For the sole purpose of having more mitigation tools it seems.
>>737590389what if you drain your hp now with some of your skills since you're not MT
>>737590315fix SCH nigga
XIV won holy shit i wasn't expecting so much kino
RATE THE EVOLVED MODE CHANGES
What happens if I queue up for DF or a raid and I don't get any main tanks?
>>737590454please update your bot script
>>737590395>rebornfags are still trying to spin this into a winJust rope now, you lost. EvolveTITANS won.

>>737590320SHUT UP

>tfw Mr. Prime
>>737590395learn the difference between skill floor and skill ceiling
So if Evolved works at lower levels, wouldn't that make Reborn a massive downgrade to use while leveling?Like Evolved mode is already light on buttons, so at 30 I doubt it will just be 2 buttons.
>>737590372>Evolved BLMat this point I think they're gonna lean into them being the stationary artillery they were initially designed as
>>737590507I am cum/10
>>737590315Tamaki invented the OG versions of all those jobs except BLM.
>>737590509Everything that isn't high-end can still be done with any tank combination
>>737590509He said it doesn't matter except for endgame content.
>>737590460>can save your drg jump's damage reduction for a big hit instead of needing to use it during the burst window.It really frees up a lot of smaller ways to express player skill.
Mr. Prime I kneel
glad to see warkeks being put in their rightful place
>tfw it genuinely feels like we're entering a renaissance This feel...
>>737590315I'm imagining evolved DNC.
>>737590498Deployment is totally gonna function like how it does in PvP.
>>737590509The same thing that will happen if you get 2 shield healers or 2 regen healers
>>737590476DRG's at a 30s cycle per skyhigh, with a lot of freedom of when to do what. Saving jumps for sections with hard positionals will be something to think about.
DRK was killed and stripped of all its innards to save the game
>>737590495If there were no more tank swaps they would have killed Shirk.
>>737590554Reborn in general is a downgrade now besides manual control over buffs/mits.
https://poal.me/6hgd1ihttps://poal.me/6hgd1ihttps://poal.me/6hgd1i
>>737590507Looks very promising, glad they go for more Job flavour and nuked the 2 minute meta.
>>737589952they know stubborn fucks will cry but they have 2-3 years to get over themselves and get used to it before Reborn mode either gets unsupported, or gets axed completely
GNB/DRK on OT seems to be exactly inline with what they typically drift to now though.
>>737590509I'm assuming all this is balanced for high end raidtranny savages and ultimates. a tank is still a tank, duty finder and extreme content will be fine with 2 off tanks or 2 main tanks
THE PVP KING SAVED PVE APOLOGIZE TO CC RIGHT FUCKING NOOOOOW
>>737590530They're likely not revisiting old content design. Just EC content will be designed with evolved in mind.
>>737590621holy cum
I can only assume that Reborn and Evolved are the same buttons, but evolved just has combo buttons whereas Reborn just has all buttons separate
>>737590315>evolved warrior is going to be a full life steal tank and will just spew out heals for the entire party
Every time a dev spouts this "we've made changes because not everyone has time to play video games" shit I just know we are fucked man. Yes we need to change everything so that 5 iq subhumans can play the game because irl jobs exist.
>>737590395It's easier to learn but it's higher skill because it's reactive. Your sterile parsetranny meta is DONE. It's OVER. You will NEVER be allowed into a PF ever again.
>>737590317All tanks will be able to do casual content, just like shield vs. pure healers. For high-end, PFs will do just like healers today and designate one tank slot as PLD/NEW and the other as WAR/DRK/GNB.
>>737590507Promising. This panel was maximum edging for Berlin/Tokyo fes. If they can actually follow up on shaking up encounters with killing two-minute, I will resub.
We need to EVOLVE™ to survive the upcoming... Evercold™
OPTIMUS
>>737590648Not at all. Reborn/Evolved Drg are entirely different jobs mechanically.
bard dogdge indicates that the dps new job is gunner with a ton of gunkata moves
>>7375905078/10 need to see more jobs, but what was shown is promising and definitely better than Yoshida's initial pitch made it sound.
MR PRIME I KNEEEEEEEL
i get a little teary-eyed, man. he was so fuckinf nervous how the changes will be received but people unironically love it and chant his name now.absolute kino
Xeno will complain and half these changes will be removed. The call is already being made.
this thread taught me that SE hires shitposters to post on /v/, it might've taken me awhile to notice but i sure noticed it now
The people cheering for 1 button rotations really need to kill themselves.
>>737590507Complete unmitigated ass. If you think this is good you're a fucking retard.
>>737590018Interested to see what they do with WARalso MCH, there's so much fucking cool shit they could do with them.
He may be a leaguefag, but I'm impressed
Apologise for doubting him, RIGHT NOW
>>737590507Blew my expectations all the way out of the water. That DRG showcase was insane.
MR PRIMEMR PRIME MR PRIME
>>737590583
>>737590710aw shit
They should not keep the "reborn" stuff in, just make it a clod cut and be done with it. Since they are keeping the Job flavor and enhancing it, I don't care if its less buttons or more simple, it looks tons more fun.
>>737590463Feels pretty fucking good.Same. I'm waiting until 7.55 I think. A few months to hopefully blitz a couple relics and minimizing suffering this old ass design.
>>737589906The quality of the MSQ is determined by the amount of time Y'shtola is in it.
>>737590378DRK might actually have a chance to spend HP for attacks instead of being worried about getting killed by an auto if they use it at a bad time.
>>737590648They said multiple times they will have entirely different mechanics and actions. For example Paladin won't get the Parry counterattack in Reborn.
>>737590732update your bot

>>737590852Thinking back to all the doom because of the 1 screenshot of buttons during the keynote, its hilarious

>XIV is about to experience a second ARR miracle
SAY GOOD NIIIIGGGHT
it was worth dooming for months, mani almost lost hope. nah, i did lose hope
>>737589908There is one reason to use it.Due to consolidated mits, it means you have less mits.Having two buttons that individually give 10% mit is situationally stronger than one button that gives 20%
>>737590507Loved that it killed the 2m crap. I'm a hopelesslet, but slowly finding hope again.

>>737590362Oh shit you're rightbosses are gonna play fucking DIRTY
I just hope he breathes some life into BLU again also and save it from having just 230 damage GCDs.
>>737590945they have to be truly desperate to let the dude solo it
>>737590945always the same. teams live or die by a handful of competent people
>>737590851I really liked the PvP job changes, I should have had more faith in him. Hopefully having a single cohesive vision for all the jobs makes things better and makes encounter designs better.
Great Man Theory in action
>>737590945That's what you have to do so everything is consistent, or at least have communication which the previous people did NOT have. Watching MNK need 50 band-aids in SHB to do things BLM was doing with similar design philosophy was pretty hilarious.
I guarantee there will be entire sects of this game clinging desperately to Reborn mode but they well get less and less popular as the months go by and Evolved settles in.
>>737590968is it coming out in a patch? I though the reworks were 8.0
limited jobs deserve to get cuckedpeople who play them are the absolute worst people to play with
>>737590978What else did he leak?
need an xiv version
>>737590974I was worried it'd just be smooshing combos into single buttons but they seemed to have added a lot of interesting mechanics within the jobs to so it's not just that. It's far better than I was expecting. What don't you like about it?

>>737583486Sure if you wanna spend time with mentally ill trannies then yeah, just look at your thread
So now that we can reskin out animations......what are the odds that I can officially change my Bloodspiller into Scourge and stop using a mod to do it?
>>737591043Expansion comes out in Jan 2027>>737590969She's likely to fall upward into a high position at Blizzard now that they're doing pride parades in the game itself and she can use her moral grandstanding while on XIV as clout to get onboard over there as some form of team member.
>>737591030yeah they're called The Balance and they will bitch and cry that they have to freestyle rotations rather than spreadsheet everything.
You now remember doomposters were saying evolved form is just going to be xivcombo/pvp buttons
I am no longer worried about the gameplay or the fights they are probably gonna be good. But I need this same amount of fixing for the MSQ and questing in general,
>>737590885this is fake, he only guessed things and say wrong things like saying skip to endwalkerIt's easy to guess in this game, I few weeks ago I said the "The trail to the heavens" title for 7.5 was related to 8.0 and a shard with floating islands
>>737591067what if...he does?
>>737590743ONE NATIONUNDER GODI N D I V I S I B L E
>>737590917Everyone is so fat...
Mr happy has been at every single fanfest when shit leaked.
Now that base jobs are getting crazy shit like 90% damage reduction on a melee DPS there’s no reason for limited jobs to stay limited
>>737591071>balancetrannies MELTING
>>737591030It really depends on the job design I think. Besides the thirdeye/seigan that paladin got they really didn't change from Reborn much. Just less buttons. The DPS jobs are basically brand new jobs.
>>737591118HOPE and BELIEVE
Almost made me forget this was taking place in An*heim
I have to say:YoshiP fuckign sucks ass at selling mechanics. He was so fucking vague with Evolve as a concept during the keynote that most people were rightfully really doubtful.
>>737590743
>>737591096To be fair, I'm not a doomtranny and even I thought that. Mr. Prime really knocked it out of the park.
>>737590978What did he leak again?
>>737591096It quite literally is still
>>737591086He was so nervous and ended up being the best thing of NA fan fest and salvaging any last shred of major doom. I mean, things could still go to shit come launch maybe the new combat doesn't really do anything major, but still he deserves that ovation for the effort.
You guys shat on PvP when it saved PvE.
>>737590743I am sorry for doubting you, Mr. Prime. Thank you for saving our game.
>>737590743can't believe I'm having to praise a fucking league of legends playerthese really are the endtimes
>>737590424Probably, you don't really NEED much of a rotation anymoreWrathcombo and other 'naughty' combo plugins will probably still be around for lazy fags like me who want a one-button-does-it-all solution but it will have majorly refactor to move away from automatically executing the perfect rotation like it does now, but will probably sitll keep all its context/situation-aware functions
>>737590648The way they put it, it sounds like Reborn jobs will just be an incremental evolution of 7.0 jobs, so 2 minute meta, party buffs, 60 second burst cycles, maybe with some new oGCDs and transforming buttons to make it seem fresh.
>>737591096
>>737591140>DRG gets a Diamondback every 30 seconds
>>737591096At its heart it technically is, it's just there's more on top
>>737591096It is.Its just the game plays better with XIV combo and I'm tired of pretending its bad for the game.

Gotta wait 9 months for Evolved gameplay...
I wonder what the revamping of overworld zones is going to be, because that's also a big thing. I had no hope but after today i think they might actually be cooking

>>737591420God imagine how anxious he was before that presentation. He mentioned it was his first time even leaving Japan, probably his first time doing any convention stuff too. And with all that work, every single one of those jobs being solely on him, that's a lot of weight on one's shoulders.
>>737591173Since the rework everyone and their mother wanted the same uniqueness the jobs had on PVP modes for PVE, some said it was impossible but Mr. Prime stepped up.
>>737591398Hope it's something repeatable and not just more stuff like Shared FATEs that you never touch again once you finish. So many zones are just complete ghost towns outside of a hunt train sweeping through.

Okay Anon: Tell me ONE Evolved mechanic you would love to see on your Main Job(s)Dragoon's jump and Bard's stored songs + directional jumpshots and Paladin's perfect parry means we can get truly silly with this.
How will evolved SMN even play
>>737591572I’m finally getting my baby back after 5 years
>>737591671I just want Kaiten back. It's never left my hotbars.
>>737591454This triple nigger trolled my TOP runs so his word means nothing, simply put.
>>737591420He's not out of it yet. there's still 17 jobs left, and people WILL find something they hate. There's still a chance it blows up. But for today, he's a victor.
>bard has cast bars>but also has a movement ability that strafes you to the side, allowing you to get into position to use your big castSounds fun.
>>737590945Nah, it's more like a single guy came in and cleaned up a huge mess which resulted from a decade of listening to every single player even though players are retards who don't know how to design video games.Literally everything being fixed is something that was put into the game as a result of player feedback. Healers being allergic to hard casting heals? That's due to player feedback. 2 minute meta? Player feedback(nooo Warriors and Monks can't be different make them 2 minute meta slaves too!) Bloated action bars? Player feedback(an extremely vocal minority sperged the fuck out any time anyone suggested consolidating combos.) Everything is because of retards constantly shouting about how the game should be changed and SE listened(never listen to vocal retards.)
>>737591416Here you go. The only pet I ever actively farmed and she's been outside ever since

I'm salivating at Evolved DRK right now, if they make some skills cost HP I will personally give Hikaru a blowjob
>>737591642The 4th looking very high fantasy kino with world trees and volcano citadels. Solution 9 forever dumped in the garbage
>>737591671I just want shadowflare back
>>737591416
>>737591671>>737591707Bro, I am 100% sure that Mr. Prime is going to bring the Kaiten animation back and make Third Eye even more fun to use. I might be setting myself up for disappointment but he won so hard that I can only believe *he* wants Kaiten back too
>>737591743with it being designated OT, we actually might
can someone link me a thread when the eva announcement was live?
>>737591454>DRG LB mitigates the damage for his mistake and survives the bad floor or the bad dance spot, probably also eats a DMG Down debuff>His LP/Partner still blow up or get clipped and die. I don't think it will do that much of a difference for the harder fights.

>>737591671i want blm to walk very slowly while casting, to simulate slide-casting
>>737591454You are forgetting that DRG doesn't have the role-innate passive that gives them additional damage reduction, HP etc.Sure, they can tank something with Sky High but it's still gonna fucking hurt even with 90% reduction
>>737591671Perfect monk attacks increase your attack speed until you are truly blitzing
How would evolve RDM work? i'm so used to what we have now...

>>737591671Since Mr. Prime is the one that designed the PvP jobs as well and WAR is a designated OT now, I hope there's moves that let me play with my HP more like in PvP. I'm also interested to see if we're more than just Fel Cleave: The Job.
>>737591785It'll allow them to be uptime gods. Chariots be damned
>>737591806they are all tranny no woman among them
I'm trying to imagine Evolved Viper and I can only imagine the job being even more spergy.

The real genuine miracle will be how evolved SMN plays
I MISS VENAT
>>737591809My hope is that they add interesting things in encounters for DRG to actually use that ability, kind of like how BRD was the off-off-tank in Coils.

>>737591865Viper might be the worst of the bunch, i fear. It's got the least "meat" to it as is.
>>737591835This wouldn’t work. DPSes don’t generate nearly enough enmity to get the aggro after a Shirk.
>>737591806i like ironmouse cause at least she's apoliticali usually rewatch her jerma reaction vids, but almost never watch her live unlike kirsche
I'm getting scared

>>737591904>*activates sky high*>THE DIE IS CAST
Ok I bet the first tier of the alliance raid will follow the first four angels they beat in the show, the 4th battle will be Gaghiel is a very cinematic battle and Asuka just appears there
>>737591785>>737591845>>737591904>will be able to have Kain post as a female>will be able to skill expression kino
>>737591865i can see the potentiel 2 mode one with sword separed and one reunited
>>737591928Nikkers..
>>7375919125 minutes
>>737591928We had what like 5 threads hit 1k abouts today here on v? It's been a good day.
>>737591454I mean, dragoons are the game's number one meme for being facedown on the ground dead in their own piss. Anything that increases their survivability is excellent, except you're expending a valuable attack and possibly taking a hit that still means you get a debuff and healers hassled unless used for party-wides and mechanics. If anything it turns Dragoons into a valued survivor in the right hands now.
>>737591096it literally is though, they just added some actual interesting shit on top for half the jobs and the other half just got made into a somehow even more braindead retard job (whm) like is the fucking ff14 community so dogshit retarded that they really went into redesigning WHM with the idea of "this needs to be easier" like what the fuck
finally finish downloading the game, going to try it anons, see ya´l later
Oh also, don't forget we're also getting>SPELL SKINSas future unlockable rewards. This fanfest has been so insane I almost ofrgot about it.
>>737591968>be able to have Kain post as a femaleSince when? I thought they were only giving us action customization.
>>73759050714/10
>>737591909It's only a success if the expansion sales aren't ruined by Dawntrails reputationbad expansions usually fuck the one that comes after
>>737591671Since we probably won't be getting Rune Fencer I want to see RDM doing Elemental sword moves with Enspells.
>>737592018hope arr doesn't filter you
>>737591671Just put PvP RDM into PvE
>>737591671gnb gets extra damage with timed presses like in ff8
>>737591943>alliance raid 2 ends with one player eating the s2 engine>PVP IS NOW ENABLEDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I041c6mL2s0
>>737592026I dunno, I just assume that the most basic thing they can do is allow male and female actions to be swapped.
>Remembered they talked about finally fixing the problem of zones being empty of activity since fates are boring>mfw we get critical engagements and duels in 8.0 zones while using evolved modeAre we approaching Ludo?
>>737591671Dark Arts:Sacrifice HP (including SHIELD HP) to buff your attacks.Oblation gets Blood Price as a additional effect granting the DRK more MP for TBN/Dark Arts.I have combined new and old drk while removing nothing. TBN also has a way to always break because you can just kill it yourself with Dark Arts.
>>737592025>Might be able to get stone on whmThis is the biggest win potential.
>>73759202515 dollarydoos on the mogstation, we need to support the game now that the CEO pledged to give us more money, you understand.
>>737592046They massively toned down ARR, it's not as long as it was for us.
>>737591928Hope for the first time in two years will do that.
>>737591671Give me motherfucking ULTIMA
>>737591692You become the summon
>>737591671Monk gets a channeled ORAORAORAORAORAORA move (also a proper hadoken rip off)its parry has no cooldown and they can full parry an enemy's multi-hit attacks which gives them a stacking buff for each successful parry, which then lets them spend it on any number of hard hitting attacks like one single punch with retarded potency + buff stacks for gigantic damage
>>737592046i already read that is slow and kinda boring, and that thing pick up during the first expansion, don’t worry anon
>>737590507it was everything I dreamed of and when they announced they killed the raid tranny meta I came10000/10
>>737592025Ultimate exclusive weaponskill animations is gonna give me insane fomo
I hope a lot of this is going to impact early-game too.I'd love an excuse to replay the game with these changes. I'd also be curious how they'd impact Eureka and Bozja...
>>737592101Stranger of Paradise summoner would be incredibly based. They should take more from Jack's game.
Evolved Jobs are gonna rape Deep Dungeons aren't they?
>>737591882no way I could satisfy her
>>737592040You're not wrong. But word of mouth will spread. First fanfest was a success. Now they need to land the other two and if Japan is great, then January is right around the corner. Storyfags need to be convinced and it will be gucci.
>>737592018Good luck, hope you don't mind reading. It's a pretty slow start, but you have enough time to play through it.
>>737592073You shouldn't get too excited for that, they should have started doing it 10 years ago which means that now they have a gigantic fucking backlog of content they need to pull out their ass. My guess is they'll start with the new zones and then go backwards in future patches
>>737592163evolved's usable from level 1, and you have full keybinds by 50, with skill upgrades coming in the later levels.
if evolved has all their buttons at level 50, what happens for levels 51-110? nothing, or a bunch of passives + modifiers?
>>737592070>it's the Keiichi Okabe version, which somehow beats the original
>>737592165stop i can only get so erect DDfags deserve every rape possible
>>737591918Maybe not shirk, but it could work in niche scenarios like a sharebuster, although the DRG would probably need some heavy buddy mit too.
>>737592101>We get XVI CUM
My biggest guess about Open World content improvement is that they're just gonna borrow the Critical Engagements/Field raids from Bozja and Occult Crescent and dump them in the overworld, fusing The Hunt and Fates.God it would be so fucking kino.
>>737591671I want ninja to have the burst APM full time.
>get into 4-man content as DRK>spam HP draining ability to keep the healer in a constant state of stressThis is gonna be fun
>>737591454pretty sure this faggot is from here btw
All of this is cool, but it doesn't mean much if encounter design doesn't change much, and while they're tackling the 2min meta, most of the game outside of raids is still pretty boring. Even if you turned every class into an action game thing it won't solve the basic DPS races and empty field encounters.
>>737592165DD balance is already atrocious so probably.
>>737592223yeah everything after will probably just be skill enhancements
>>737592164Supreme taste
>>737592101Mantling the primals like Ysayle would be far, far too kino for SE
>>737591943Bro what if they just make this the first alliance raid series where you DON'T fight as your own class, but in a mech or something with comparable skillsets based on your role
>>737592165Everything already rapes PotD and HoH
>>737592191>they'll start with the new zones and then go backwards in future patchesIm fine with that.
>all this Evolved job game saving made everyone forget there is a motherfucking Evangelion collab happening
>>737592260The main issue with that idea is keeping them populated.
>>737592223They literally said this. They're just gonna either modify existing skills or add on derivative/additional skills that build after the skill (so essentially finishers or extra combos) But ALL the main buttons will be unlocked by level 50.
>>737591807>i want blm to walk very slowly while castingI would cum fucking buckets

>>737592312I could not possibly forget.
>>737591918But what about 2 Shirks?
>we will continue to refine jobs even into the future>yfw evolved jobs and animation skins are just the first stepping stone to full alt jobs
>>737592274they did say they will add actual MMO stuff to the overworld so I'm pretty hopefulalso they did admit that the 2mins meta stifled the boss design so it will hopefully be better now
>>737592265But now their GCD heals are directly feeding their big damage button so they thank you.
>>737592312I wish you didn’t remind me
>for the next fanfest we'll see plugsuit cosplaysI'm ready
>>737592004>If anything it turns Dragoons into a valued survivor in the right hands now.Just like my FF4/FF5 playthroughs, where the Dragoon lands among a pile of dead bodies.
Gnomega
>>737592317
>>737592165Deep Dungeons have been broken for a long time due to job reworks and new job additions. If you don't get your clear before the next expansion releases it's essentially meaningless.
>>737592378>introduce swapping between modes>opening the door to alt specs
>all of them are of normal weightwhere are my hambeasts
>>737592468>>737592468
Evolved PCT will be splatoon
>>737592402I love cameltoe so much it's unreal
>>737592378I can only dream of them making 2 different playstyles for every job that you swap between at will, but I'm sure they'll just eventually delete reborn mode after everyone's gotten used to evolved
>>7375921654 man DDs aren't hard aside from trash mob one-shot gimmicks that you learn to avoid.
>>737592165Maybe I'll use them to go get Once and Future Queen.
>>737592372
>>737592372I like the way you think
>>737592312does anyone under 40 know evangelion?
>>737592378I wonder if they're fully anticipating having some jobs struggle in specific high-end encounters, so they adjusted the gearing system to let you swap to an alt job without fucking your party over.
>>737592646I'm 39 and know evangelion.
>>737592383>>737592265>OTs get their own dedicated pure healsluts pumping them with GCD heals to fund their dps rotations
>>737592646Im 36 and watched it as a kid thinking it was a cool robot show. Hope they keep that vibe for the raid series.
>>737592702That's pretty much what they implied. They said they want players to feel like they can take whichever Job they think is best for the type of content they want to do.
>>737592702Yep. And secondaries are gonna have a bad time.
>>737592646I am 35 and have seen it all. Gundam mogs it and should have been the collab given all the fucking references in the game there is.
>>737590018>MNKvery optimistic>SGEcautiously optimistic, I expect it will get a couple of new token damage skill>SCHthere's a chance they bring back multiple dots and cleric stanceif they don't do that they'll fuck it up
