>>737682485Go ahead and post it again for the 1000th time. Maybe someone will care.
>>737682464Why RPR?
>tfw carrying Square Enix on your back and the CEO finally gave you slightly more budget
>>737682541I guess they want to promote Reaper? I don't know why because every edgelord weeb basically switched to as their main from SAM, and it became the new meme DPS job. They should have promoted the new DPS job instead? I mean...they showcased Viper in the Dawntrail trailer.
>only 8 core buttons>zero interactivity with each other beyond arbitrarily unlocking the next autocombo>only defense people have is the amount of positionals>but you get half of them for free automatically>and 80% of the fights where it actually matters are going to be wall bossesThis is a fucking nightmare. They didn't remove 1-2-3. They made 1-2-3 the entire game.
>>737682608Well, VPR was a new job, so it made sense
>>737682541>>737682608So that we can do Void shit with Zenos or Xero. Someone who remembered the RPR lore can better explain it.
>>737682631But we're getting a new ranged physical DPS and a new tank job in Evercold? Soooo...why not promote or show it off in the trailer?
>>737682557Reddit mods truly never got past the fedora tipping m'lady phase of their lives.
Is my enemy, my friend back on the menu yet?
>>737682628>Evolve systemNo, see...you don't understand. People just want to be able to press three buttons and watch their character do eight different actions with flashy VFX and animation. It's too much trouble to remember to press 8-10 buttons. Kek, WoW actually did this years ago, so I'm not surprised FFXIV is doing it.
>>737682557Bro, she has a fat cat. She knows she's fat.
>>737682641What are the odds the trailers show off the literal demon Reapers contract with? Would be a shame if they don't show off the main appeal of the class because it would be incongruent with a hero, maybe they'll lean into it though. Like what Shadowbringers should have been.
>New tank is a flail user>New ranged dps is a usopp slingshot userMan what the FUCK were the devs thinking?
>>737682628this sounds kino and fun, I'm glad you 1-2-3 tards are getting blasted
>>737682628i have come to realize that i don't actually care about rotations.they aren't hard.i'd rather have the gameplay be easy as fuck so they can have more engaging boss mechanics.
>>737682646Generous interpretation is maybe it's like how Stormblood starts with Monk and then the end of the trailer has you as the new Samurai class. So maybe for the full trailer he job changes to one of the new ones?
>>737682707This was beyond kino. How could they ever top this?
>>737682646it's the first trailer and they're saving each job announcement for the other 2 fanfests.the trailer isn't even the full length one if you remember how the hype cycle was for the other expansions.
>>737682881>>737682841Ah, fair point. I'm sure we'll get trailers actually showing off the new jobs. They do it for pretty much every new major job. They showed off Gunbreaker in Shadowbringers.
>>737682861Without Ishikawa, they can't. Did they fire the Hacc-man yet?
>>737682837Wake me up when hard bosses are anything but gay debuff puzzles
>>737682557are you the same guy that posted her in the other thread?
>>737682768>slingshotFor real?
>>737682464https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNHg8fK1V1IWe are so back
>>737682768Really wondering what the shirt means then. Not sure how it would connect to either of those.
>>737682541They always make tanks and melee DPS the posterboys even if its an old class cause they think its hard to make the other roles look cool in a trailer
>>737682841>>737682841Full trailer will almost certainly show the new jobs
Trailer was boring ngl
>>737682942Yes it was leaked.>>737682956Rhitatyn chains you during his fight, like a flail chain.
>>7376826282min tranny meta is dead and so are all the retarded buff timers. I'd rather actually have fun hitting my buttons instead of playing like I'm reading sheet music.
>>737682768>>737682956In the QnA, Yoshida asked people what weapons they'd like to see a job use. A bunch of weapons were named, including Crossbow and Flail (Morning Star), and he said that (at least one?) of the weapons of the new jobs was named. So the leak could be legit or it could have been another weapon.
>>737683006>AHHHHHHHHHH YOU FUCKING IDIOT YOU HIT YOUR BUFF 2 SECONDS BEFORE THE WINDOW FUCK FUCK FUCK WIPE IT UP RESET NOOOOOOOOOOOWI'm with you. Fuck those idiots and that stale gameplay.
>>737683048If they actually give classes weird shit if we don't have to worry about team buffs now then that's cool but I'm not holding my breath
>>737682708>It's too much trouble to remember to press 8-10 buttons.More like it's just not fun. You get to actually feel cool for, like, a minute. Then you're just killing time until your burst is up again.
>>737683041The leak was correct, they got both the name almost correct, as well as the dailies description, and the UI being based on gachas.
They better give positionals to every single one of monk's abilities.
>>737683096How does the shirt fit slingshot?
>>737683082To paraphrase the guy in charge of the job rework, they'd rather ere on the side of fun than pure balance as they rework the jobs. That's why in their internal build, the pvp drg skill they transplanted into pvp has a 90% dmg reduction while using it.
>>737682541You need a cool melee character for expansion marketing it's as simple as that, and reaper is kind of the last melee job besides ninja they haven't used. You'll never see a caster or healer in trailers for that reason.
>>737682628>zero interactivity with each other beyond arbitrarily unlocking the next autocomboImagine complaining about this in ffxiv. Existing rotations have zero interactions; all rotations in ffxiv are just that, rotations. There is no decision-making or deviation from your preset button timings.
>>737683130The shirt announces the tank, not the ranged dps
>>737683149They could’ve made him the new tank while hiding what it was like in DT
>>737682837but that's a major part of longevity.if I do a fight and it doesn't matter what job I am, it has a lot less replayability than if I have to engage with it differently on BRD vs BLM for example
>>737682628And this is somehow not gonna stop people like you from fucking up mechanics and griefing my parties. Maybe you can explain that one to me too.
>>737683006Hated this garbage so much, every fucking job had the same tacked on shitty buff even when it makes no sense flavour wise for them to have one except the snowflake ones like SAM that get to dominate this shitty meta for like 8 years.
>RPRProbably because Scandinavian lore is all about underworld and shit and rpr fits the theme of REAPING, winter and death rather well
>>737682628looks fun and awesomereborn sissies will seethe
>>737683183>it doesn't matter what job I amgood news, one of the goals of the job rework is letting jobs have their own identity again.
>>737683137I feel like with the new gearing system, having unbalanced jobs isn't that big of a deal. You can just play stronger jobs while progging and swap to whatever to like when you have good enough gear.
>>737683130Rhitatyn chains you during the fight
>>737683183you can just play it as a different role now that item level is character-wide.
I believe in tamaki-kun
>>737683175They could only get away with that for VPR because they could partially reveal it. If the weapon is really a flail, they can't exactly hide it like they did VPR's second sword and twinblade.
>>737683239What does that have to do with slingshot
The thing is, improved job design is way more important than encounter design, because job design is something you feel in all content whereas encounter design is really something only felt in harder content.Even doing a shitty FATE can be enjoyable if the job is fun to play.
>>737683281We are getting tank first, then the ranged, probably the tank will be the second poster job. Same way SB was MNK and then SAM.
>>737683276I do too.>literally zero misses
>>737683281Slingshot will be another shirt.DT was the only time the shirt was a hint at both jobs.
>>737683279Just delete the weapon from the model like they did in DT. Yeah it’ll look dumb in the moment but no one will remember by the time the full trailer is out.
>>737683306>3.0 AST>3.0 MCHYeah I don't believe in Tamaki-kun.
>>737683306>needed a pvp chad to save us from the current state of the game
>>737683306almost all of his jobs were balanced badly.i think he'll probably do alright too but to say he never missed is foolish.
>>737683306Reaper sucked ass back then and now but yea. Good track record otherwise.
>Entire expansion focuses on ice/cold Here is the song they're using in the next trailer btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaLpzyw4q3w
>>737683306Oh shit he’s the PVP guy? Yeah promote him
>>737683306Literally none of those jobs missed in the expansions they were designed for, this man is based beyond belief.
>>737683350Anyone have the image of all the shirts? I saw it but I didn't save it.
>>737682541It's Sniper. Like Usopp from One Piece, with a giant sling shot.
>>737683306>Original ASTWell hopefully they let him off the leash so he can do some stupid shit
>pld's job defining actions are blocking and casting magicWhat do you think you're job's defining actions are going to be?
It will be a boomerang job thats a Yuffie reference
My SAM is always ready for new adventures.
>>737682541Besides Paladin getting the EW spotlight so hey, Reaper kinda makes sense. They were originally farmers on the sunny parts of Ilsabard before the Garleans got exiled to the snowy wastes, where Reapers were formed out of survivors that could handle themselves in such hostile situations. Reaper is thematically the perfect fit for pre-existing jobs in terms of delving into an ice-rotted shard.
>>737683471>What do you think you're job's defining actions are going to be?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6knbRKJOzU
>>737683471>ViperHopefully poison, but if not they should give it more movement stuff, PVP viper is kind of a random bullshit go job
>>737683471I don't see Monk being that different. Even with PVP the only big difference is it has old damaging part of Riddle of Earth still. Or at least some kind of Counter since that and a self heal are the only thing Monk gets outside of the Tactics games.The dream would be to somehow give them Suplex but I don't even know if the japs care about it as much as the western fans.
>>737682628I get to play an action RPG and not an autism simulator. Sounds good to me.
It's finally dawntrailing on me i've skipped an entire expansion and now alien trailers are releasing about things i can't conceive. I used to know this game.
>>737682707You can't obviously. Zenos was a great and refreshing character. The whole scene is the building up of three years, and the "That, I can't deny" was one of the greatest momentsI'm glad I just stopped at endwalker and didn't play dawntranny. My last moments of FFXIV were pure undiluted kino
>>737683718You could skip the entirely of DT and be fine for evercold. All you'd need to know is the final boss drops a dimensional gateway key that's connected to azem.
>>737682628im glad this happened because i have zero fucking room as it currently is on both of my hotbars on controllerthe bloat had to go especially if they plan on continuing to add actions every expac
>>737683471>pct drawing. I can’t imagine evolved will be too different given the same guy designed it. hopefully there’s still cast times
>>737683718>>737683835You would still need to know about Calyx, Preservation and the Winterers, because that's all connected to the larger storyline
>>737683816Fuck I wish I did the same. DT really has killed most of my good memories about the game
>>737683898You could skim 7.2-3 and read 7.4 and be fine I think.
>>737683718Dawntrail was so bad that after reading all of it and not skipping anything, I skipped all of the patches afterwards and I have no clue what's happening.
>>737683898by DT I mean 7.0. And anything related to tural for that matter.
>Dawntrail was so bad it ruined the game for lots of people Every big MMO has at least one bad expansion, people. Get over it. It was bound to happen with FFXIV. You can't just have five expansions in a row and think they're all going to be amazing. Dawntrail was their shit one, and now we're going back to super happy fun time kino.
>>7376830062 min trannybuff sucks especially because they cause EVERY FUCKING FIGHT to have the same rhythm as well otherwise the raid girl would screw up xis parse
>>737682541What previous reply said about the Ice related connection, plus they prob don’t want to have Meteor show up in an outfit obscuring robe again if they had made him whatever the new tank is instead.
>>737682557>>737682701Same goes to Reddit-related Discord channels. And you can get banned for adding an American flag emotes as "transphobic".
will this include older expansions too?I think I only have expansions up to shadowbringers
>MeteorMa'am, it's John Finalfantasy
>Find one of the five players who main NIN >Evolve system comes in >Press one button >Watch their character do all the Mudra automatically with one button press.
>>737683987DT is the new SB/EW people will be talking about how shit it was until the next expansion that is bad
>>737683471I imagine BLM will be fire turret mode, ice mobile mode
>>737683361Literally the only problem with 3.0 AST was that their numbers were undertuned. It immediately eclipsed WHM the second it got a single buff.
Dawntrail is better than Endwalker in everything except the story.
>>737684060>SBAh, I forgot that one was also kinda shit, but it introduced SAM, so I somewhat tolerated it and they tried to do a Japanese/weeb theme for at least part of it. I didn't hate EW, wasn't aware it was so despised. I can understand SB and DT, honestly haven't heard anything good about DT, but I guess some people liked it?
>>737683987It's not just Dawntrail, actually. Shadowbringers had a lot of people loving the story, but the MMO part that was already starting to slack started feeling weaker and weaker, Viera were released unfinished, issues with design quality and content cadence were starting to happen, and the raider crowd was starting to be vocal enough to shift the game's balance. Then Endwalker happened, and the most casual shit you got was a forgettable deep dungeon, the introduction of variant dungeons that people moved on past in a week, and Island Sanctuary's cookie clicker tier garbage; EVERYTHING started priming itself for raiders and the rest of the content was suffering on top of now-longer release periods between patches. And then after the first patch, the story kinda started getting really stupid, retcon-y of the Void, and a sign of what was to come with Dawntrail.DT was kind of the explosion, the straw that broke the camel's back, and to ignore the quality in content is absurd, but that shit was slow-burning over the 4-5 years prior after the slow build up of a strange aftertaste in people's mouths and a realization that CBU3 was getting really damn complacent. And we're well past COVID-19 as a development excuse for their problems.
>>737684091>Except the most important partThankfully, the devs finally seem to have learned that appealing to raidtrannies is suicide.
>>737684046It says in the picture they got banned for doing the frowney face
>>737684086tbqh i was just larping. i was a sch otp back then and my serious exposure with mch was after the reload change.
>>737682628this is great, maybe i wont need wrathcombo anymore
>muh raiders
>>737684046Trannies are banning people for American flags now? Do they not know that America is probably the country that is the most tolerant of them? Unless you're passing and asian, in which case maybe Thailand beats America, but none of these trannies are passing.
>>737684174considering the entire 2 minute buff window being an explicit bullet point of being removed, and now it's that crowd that's protesting evolved and the changes the most, yes, muh raiders
>>737682628They are turning the game from an role playing mmo into an action mmo. This has been going on for a while and anyone who played that game during DT should have noticed. VPR, right out the door felt different to all other jobs in that it was completely unshackled from any fixed cooldowns and had significantly less buttons. Since it became the most popular melee Job it was no question other Jobs would follow. So, if anyone wants the answer to themself if evolved will be good: do you like to play VPR?
Was Dawntrail also designed by the localizers of FF14? To think the one expansion where we're not saving the world from destruction ends up being absolutely dogshit. Why is Heavensward still considered the best?
>>737684060>new SBI don't remember SB losing around 80% of the players from its previous expansion and getting that confirmed by a plugin.>>737684137>deflecting to raiders again when the whole issue is the game is stagnant from combat to story Holy kek
>>737682541RPR was the prototype for evolved job design.
>>737684220>became the most popular melee Jobthat's because it's op
>>737684220>They are turning the game from an role playing mmo into an action mmoNothing about how you play the game is changing though.
>>737683584Realistically I feel like MNK will be blitz + either all positionals or like 1.5 baseline gcd. If they wanted to get really wacky I could see them using the directional inputs like with BRD, but making it change the attack. So pressing the button while going forward would be dragon kick, back is bootshine, and so on.
>>737684220>role playing mmoin perhaps the loosest sense possible of literally playing a generalized role, but that's having to be very loose and overtly kind
>>737683987I remember back when DT released there was a huge push to try and paint people’s complaints as just doomposting or innacurate. And that the story was awesome and this was peak XIV. Of course their attempts at controlling the narrative failed as people’s complaints were too overwhelming.
>>737684284>I remember back when DT released there was a huge push to try and paint people’s complaints as just doomposting or innacurate.I really don't remember this at all. Everyone thought it was shit the whole time, saying it gets better with Sphene but it's still shit. This was /xivg/, too. Unless the /v/ thread was saying it's good, I don't know where anyone was saying Dawntrail's MSQ was ever good.
>>737684284every time i remember the story dicksucking i remember the reviewer that went>your opinion doesn't matter if you switched to japanese voice acting, you're bigoted and you can't understand them anyway so how can you even grade them
>>737684146And adding the American flag emote.
>>737684341>I don't know where anyone was saying Dawntrail's MSQ was ever good.On other websites.
>>737684262It never has overpeformed in any of the tiers by a significant margin, if at all. Do you like how VPR plays?>>737684267Taking all the mental stress from playing your Job away by streamlining it is a significant shift. Encounters are also bound to be even more of a mechanics vomit.
>>737684361Maybe a small conglomerate of Twitter trannies saying it's good because a tranny VA was in it, sure, I can believe that. It didn't happen on 4chan though.
>>737682557Anymore ridiculous Reddit screenshots from r/ffxiv?
>>737684369>Encounters are also bound to be even more of a mechanics vomit.I'd rather an Ultimate expect me to handle mechanics consistently so I don't fuck things up in the immediacy for my team, than to accidentally be a second off in a burst window buff and doom us 2-3 minutes later because I didn't press my buttons and weaves perfectly.
>>737682541>we need a job that knows how to survive/fight the coldalso ZENOS
>Guy on my Steam friend list is on FFXIV everyday>Has 21,000 hours in the game I can't imagine having such an addiction. I can't fathom it.
>>737684249>80% of its playerbaseEW was so bad they cancelled the next expansion. Wait no that was just some shit retarded trancers made up
>>737684341You obviously weren’t on /v/ threads back then, we actually had shit like zoraal ja defense and wuk is a great character
>>737682557>We are seeing some truly less than pleasant message here, so here's my message.>Display any misogynistic behaviour and you'll be wiped our from this sub.>Thank you.
>>737682557I want to fuck her.
>>737684513Why are you just making shit up? people liked galuul ja and just thought zoraal ja was funny because of how much he hated him.Either way not sperging out for 12 hours over SPEEN and actually talking about the game does not mean it was universally loved
>>737684046Just tell them what Yoshida said about men and women.
>>737684513>You obviously weren’t on /v/ threads back thenI'm gonna be real, /v/ threads (when they are allowed) are even worse than /xivg/I only came to /v/ for fanfest because I didn't want avatarfag shit interfering with actual game discussion. If you're saying what's what happened on /v/, that's insane, I'm inclined to believe it's a false flag because not even the literal trannies on /xivg/ defended it, but if you're saying that's what happened then I guess that's what happened. Just know that not even /xivg/'s trannies defended Dawntrail's MSQ.
>>737684369>Do you like how VPR plays?I don't particularly like it but it's fine. It's quite different from other melee jobs which I think is also a reason it's popular, especially since melee is generally not a very popular role. If I get to have my way I'd bring back 2.x monk and 3.x dragoon but that's just me.
>>737684612>It's quite different from other melee jobsI see you've never played RPR.
>>737684465let people enjoy things
>>737684610He's just lying, "defending dawntrail" for him is telling him to shut the fuck up about kate while people tried talking about dungeons or the story shit that wasn't wuk related
UNTO TOMORROW
>>737684513Everyone, EVERYONE hated Wuk besides contrarians, and everyone also shitposted about how absolutely bonkers retarded Zoraal Ja as a character was. Even after we found his motivations he was still a comically stupid villain. I was there at launch, playing and viewing, and no one was liking this shit here. At least not of the anons at the time.Incidentally once everyone was done venting their shit that's when the shitposters and ritual schizos cemented themselves in full and the game discussion went from people being willing to actually chat about the game at all to full blown two years of the same crap in nearly every since XIV thread.
>48 hours later>Parsetroons still melting down Might be the best fanfest of all time.
>>73768467421,000 hours is a sign that you need therapy, or to find some other hobbies.
>>737684564shes propably a great slampig
>>737684667I have.
>>737684602I’m not making shit up lol, I was actually there. I remember a month in some guy tried to defend wuk being in the final fight with “it’s non canon!” This was after a few months so they had already backpedaled from the position that “her stealing your glory in the final fight is good, actually”>>737684610>>737684692I remember the zoraal ja defense was “he’s well written because he’s supposed to be like Kuja!” and then got really passive aggressive for the rest of the thread when you told him how retarded that was.>>737684679You’re the one that’s lying lol, don’t know why you’re so defensive about this. Could it be you were also there and are maybe a bit embarrassed about what you posted?
>>737684465what does he even do in it?pvp is dead
>>737684612HW MNK is a strict upgrade to ARR MNK.
>>737684679>He's just lying, "defending dawntrail" for him is telling him to shut the fuck up about kate while people tried talking about dungeonsOhhhh he's one of those schizos. They melt down for 12 hours every day, always about the same thing, just loudly shitting themselves while screaming for everyone else to watch them do it, and when you tell them to shut the fuck up they screech even louder and tell you to stop defending whatever the fuck it is they're shitting themselves over. God I fucking hate those types of schizos.
>>737684743I have no fucking idea. I should ask him, like maybe he has IRL friends that play it, or he's in an active FC and they just hang out every night? I'm honestly curious to see his character/account and see how much shit he's accomplished/done.
>>737684736^ the raped
>>737684764No not really.
>>737684603Did he really say that?
>>737684714I bet dumping a week long cum load into her with no condom would feel amazing.
>>737684764Yeah, it's also really obvious when he's posting, he's like ACK levels of autistic/defensive.
>>737684752Wasn't hw mnk just arr mnk with chakra and longer stack? I played both and liked both.
>>737684802Yes, it was at the QnA panel. He was asked a question about why aren't the female Au'ra as taller or taller than the males and he responded by saying there are genetic differences between males and females, bones density, genetics and the crowd of troons were seething, saying "NOOOO" it was really funny. It'll be on the livestream vods still, it was the first question asked at the QnA segment.
>>737684820Yes. Outside of downtime it was the exact same just with Elixir Field added.
>>737684692there was one guy going absolutely wild with the sass trying to defend zoraal ja as a character just a few months back lolI was making the argument that gulool ja is a terrible father for not noticing how batshit crazy zoraal ja is and that guy just wouldn't have it lolnow imagine that guy but there's 10 of them in a thread and that's what early DT threads were like
>>737684489>EW ends with a high of 1.4mil active players>DT launches and crashes hard>changes to blacklist system allows a plugin to get the UID for each account and tell whose character is whose alt>results in people scanning every DC and server for multiple months showing the average active count based solely on active UIDs for 3-4 months during a patch drop was 300kThat's a nearly 80% loss, that's how bad DT was.
>>737684802He really did say that male and female au ra are dimorphic because of their genetics and bone structure. (someone asked for giant femra)
>>737684851Based Yoshi-P.
>>737684876It really was funny how one tranny spent like 5 weeks claiming they canceled an entire expansion because of EW and then spammed the same article headline over and over again.Gotta be one of the most autistic troons to shit up /v/ famalam ngl.
I doubt FF14 will ever truly recover unless somehow WoW blew itself up again and people REALLY needed their MMO fix. Shit, PSO2 had a horrible episode and that game never recovered, which got it further killed a shit "sequel". Most I can hope for is that people gradually just let DT fade away so long as EC isn't a colossal shitfest too, but even if the game never dips like that again, it's never gonna be forgotten.
>>737684929That sounds like Barry antics.
So how far away is the xpac? 2027?
>>737684603>>737684851Someone post the interview where Yoshida was sad that a mother tried to shield their child from a transgender faggot. Until he outright insults them by name it means nothing.
>>737684960bro forgot about 1.0
>>737684994January 2027. Incidentally the same month as the 30th anniversary of Final Fantasy VII, which I won't be surprised if Square tries some big shit around that time period.
>>737684820It had Chakra, Elixir Field, and Tornado Kick.
>>737684815It doesn't really matter because the consensus is that DT sucked sucked and even the defenders don't suck Wuk's cock anymore and there's nothing they can do to change that. It was just funny reminiscing about old days when the threads were a lot more chaotic. Getting repeatedly gaslighted was a bit unexpected tho.
>>737685013you can support trannies but also acknowledge are clearly biological differences that can never be ignored
>>737684929Oh that I'm not aware of. I'm very aware of the abysmal hit DT did but that's the first time I've heard of that. Was it because they took their time announcing Fanfest?
>>737684960luckily WoW is currently in the process of blowing itself up
>>737685013He obviously didn't mean to unperson trannies by speaking a biological truth, that's just how truth operates in relation to trannies.
>>7376850251.0 has people that miss it even if mostly for the potential and nostalgia, aesthetic values, or actually being more XI. That or just lost media curiosity in general. I don't think anyone's really gonna miss DT around here.
>>737685043Only if you're a faggot lolbert with an extreme case of cognitive dissonance.
>>737685026I was honestly pretty shocked at that date. I was expecting spring or early summer 2027.
>>737685086speak english, retard
>>737685035>Tornado KickThis shit was a meme for YEARS until they accidentally made it optimal (and then nerfed it) in a patch in SB. What were they thinking giving you a capstone ability that's only used once or twice a fight maximum?
>>737685026>Incidentally the same month as the 30th anniversary of Final Fantasy VII, which I won't be surprised if Square tries some big shit around that time period.The last interview, Hamaguchi said something like Part 3 is "mostly" on schedule. And that means it's probably moderately behind schedule. They are shitting out the Switch 2 port ASAP because Rebirth flopped so hard, and that's probably a bit of a hiccup. My guess, which is soft confirmed by Evercold being Jan 2027, is that they're targeting the NA release of FFVII to release Part 3 on (~September) because they're not going to release Evercold and Part 3 at the same time. That would be retarded.
>>737685062>he says for the hundredth timeTrannies will keep WoW in the 2mil zone with Classic the same way trannies keep this game alive in the 500k zone. The genre is fucked and the Evolved and 1 button combo of WoW should have made that thoroughly clear. God what id do for a new FF MMO that pulls nothing from WoW and filters troons from the ARR to DT era.
MNK has been on a real journey. Wasn't there a period where Dragon Kick spam was the optimal "rotation"?
>>737685112Learn english, shitskin.
>>737684978>>737685036Actual sperg spammed "maintenance mode" for months. Imagine the smell of his room.https://arch.b4k.dev/_/search/text/%22no%20plans%20for%20new%20expansion%22/Also explains why he's obsessed with subcounts.
>>737685113MNK was already perfect so they didn't know what to add except for situational skills.
>>737685147>Trannies will keep WoW in the 2mil zone with ClassicMost of them are bots.
>>737685195why'd you reply to me?
>>737685147WoW is kinda blowing itself up though. So much shit straight up doesn't work in their new patch that they had to issue an apology for it. And also they have a tranny parade. And also there is a 1 button combo now. WoW is actually circling the drain, even if the people who have been subbed to it for the past 20 years aren't awake enough to see it.
Beastmaster still looks like complete dogshit
>>737685195Yeah, I'm like 99% sure that's Barry.
>>737685152https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjh-QeNVMSgThis was DK "rotation".https://youtu.be/riiiiOB3NHQThis was also a DK rotation. MNK might be the funniest class in this game's history.
>evolved mode is just GW2 rotationsgrim...
>>737685139Well everyone's rightfully paranoid to also think that VII is gonna get homaged (yet again) in the next expac, so I just hope it isn't some overt shilling weirdness. Again. But yeah, that sounds about right, we still have zero info for part 3 and Rebirth had a pretty large gap between reveal and release, so it's definitely no January-February release.
>>737683306>PictoI'll trust the jap, for now...
>>737685289>gw2 rotations but made by a competent devthank you square
>>737685220Brother you tribalistic retards have been claiming that since Stormblood as much as the retards claiming this game is dying since ShB. These games are not gonna die and will be hollow husks like XI is. The worst part is you guys are so tribal that even though we can agree WoW is the cancer of MMOs you refuse to see the issue that XIV is a vessel keeping the tumor design alive. I swear I hope WoW dies because it would take XIV with it and hopefully open the fucking MMO genre to a new fucking layout that filters out people who just want to RP or Raidlog instead of a true second world.
>>737682628>Zero interactivity>As if the current way combat works has anylol, lmao even, good shitpost anon! Have my updoot!
>>737685152MNK has been changed far more than any other job. Depending on how autistic you want to get there have been at least 7 significantly different versions over the years.
>>737685338>Brother you tribalistic retards have been claiming that since StormbloodNope, not me. Didn't read the rest.
>>737682557>woman sexualises herself>nooooooooo stop sexualising her you misogynistic incel chuds!!!!! so sorry about them m'lady they're giving ME the ick
>>737685289GW2 has the advantage of having different build types + elite specializations at least
Rate Evolved Bard.
>>737685338Nobody here has ever considered XIV a WoW killer retardbro. We just made fun of WoWfags that tried coming over in the early days but complained about needing to play the story and other shit
>>737685381It'sjustfuckingSMN/10I really hope they touch it up a bit more.
>>737684276Yeah Blitz is probably enough of a gimmick but Jump getting a damage reduction has gotten my hopes up for something stupid getting added
>>737683306>3.0 ASTThis man singlehandedly made the most BASED job in the games history so I think we are in good hands
>Icebringers
>>737685493You've got it the wrong way around, it should be Firebringers.
I hope DT sucking doesn't turn them off from doing stuff with the source again.
>>737685025Hardly anyone played 1.0 in comparison since it was so bad out the gate
>>737685534I hope the game shuts down before we go to Meracydia.
>>737685289We're not GW2 until players can actually be vertical outside a gravity mechanic and the netcode doesn't gib you for looking at a snapshot funny.
>>737685076the battle them was good
>>737685381Looks kinda boring rotation-wise honestly. At least the songs granting regen/shield will make interesting as a DPS/healer support hybrid.
>>737685574You don't want an entire expansion of Aussie Lalas and maybe a Dragon or two?
>>737685534I expect Neversold to be the last xpac
>>737685493>Wintersward
>>737685152When they changed how Monk's combo buffs worked you could do like 80% of full damage by just mashing Dragon Kick with the damage up buff for it going, only had to refresh it every 30 seconds or something
>>737685534I really hope they learn the correct lesson and realise "X country copy pasted in Eorzea" is the gayest possible form of worldbuilding.
>>737685593it depends on how much they care about being "historically sensitive", now that they tied themselves to the source = earth.I really do think DT was rewritten sometime during development to prevent the scions from doing anything at all because them being too involved would be "muh colonialism"
>>737682608>They should have promoted the new DPS job instead? I mean...they showcased Viper in the Dawntrail trailer.Unfortunately a SE executive cracked down on them and said "it will be too goofy if the WoL is bonking guys on the head with blitzballs in the premium CGI trailer". We'll just have to wait to see Blitzer ingame.
>>737685407>We just made fun of WoWfags that tried coming over in the early daysAnyone from ARR onwards is a form of WoWfag. The exceptions are pre-Yoshida 1.Xfags aka anyone predating 1.21/Job Stones. And don't even try to deny it given 2.0fags were the ones crying that Yoshida didn't want to add gay marriage to the EB system.
>>737685484I don't think MNK will ever be tankier that their 40% damage reduction in ShB. Being the only dps able to survive tankbusters in the nier tower was nice though.
>>737685493>>737685526>>737666297
>>737685640I mean the indigenous people from the Blue Mage quests never appear, there's a camp with wall paintings in DT that looks like it would fit in the not-wild-west region but it's all hippies that faff about. It definitely feels like DT was made with one idea in mind at the scenario level that bled into asset creation, and then the ethics committee, Kate or some other shit got involved.
>>737685640Invoking the name Kate draws out spergs but I really think she had way more involvement and influence on DT than people want to admit. So many changes reek of her beliefs. She was "lead" before but always had actual supervision and someone to check but in DT she was basically the boss of localization.Couple that with Hiroi just not being up to the task of writing an entire MSQ and it's a disaster all around.
>>737683306>anything nu-pvpoof that's rough. literally single handedly killed PVP in 14
>>737682628>Consolidating buttons so I don't have 300 buttons assigned just for my basic combo>Makes the mechanics of the job more clear to read, at least for beginners>Bunch of stuff that you can use in certain situations depending on the fight and what is happening, instead of a bunch of strict cooldowns you have to use everytime as soon as they come off cooldown or you get buttfucked, with your stuff being misaligned from now on with no way to recoverI don't really see any negatives with this, in fact, it's the complete opposite.
>>737685763>feastfag He literally saved PvP.
> they think we're STOPPING the cold
>>737685738>in the not-wild-west regionyou just made me remember rubber bullets lol
>>737685381>DoTs are still here>But now they only last 3 secondsWhy tho.
>>737685682>Yoshida didn't want to add gay marriage to the EB system.What?
>>737685682>Anyone from ARR onwards is a form of WoWfag.I hate that I can't argue that
>>737685785nah nobody enjoys crystal carafe. it's absolute shitthe only reason anyone queues for it is the battlepassfrontlines went from an enjoyable but chaotic party mode into the sweatiest pub stomp it's ever been since it released in ARR. except now instead of needed 8 people to pubstomp, you only need 4.
ONE BRINGS SNUGGIESONE BRINGS THE COKE
>>737685797The thing that really gets me about the fucking rubber bullets is them being rubber in the first place; no one actually got shot, only a gun out of a dude’s hand, so they would have been real bullets and it would have been perfectly fine.
>>737683306>Designed all 21 jobs' evolved mode on his ownFucking how
>ruins your multimillion dollar mmo>millions in revenue lost>makes chuds seethe>got paid to do ituh....baseD?
>>737685740>So many changes reek of her beliefs.Ah yes, the fourth damn time the characters look at this foreign land with parallels to their own across the sea and proceed to go, "What a rich and diverse culture!" Then they all ate tacos. No wait. Wuk got the tacos, everyone else just fucks about because they're not Wuk.
>>737685812Whoever made that is a retard. They fucked up the the PLD one too. The dots were just instantly falling off because the target dummy was constantly refreshing. We have no idea how long they'll actually last.
>>737685740I wonder if it was some direction from yoshida or ishikawa not to have "too high stakes" and hiroi just interpreted that in the worst way possibleI still remember the moment I gave up on dawntrail completely was the cooking contest, it could have been a great moment to pair wuk up with zoraal or bakool and have some real conflict + have wuk develop her diplomacy skills (since the whole story is supposed to be her growing into a leader). but instead they just pair her with koana who she's already best chums with and its just boring as sin.
>>737685713Would be more interesting if the big song didn't require playing the 3 different songsAs it is it just sounds like summoner with a bow, at most people are only gonna switch 2 of the songs they play

>>737685813When ARR was finally underway and they were slowly implementing things such as housing Yoshida decided that there was going to only be Male-Female EBs upon the system's introduction. When he responded that there were currently no plans for same sex EB sites like Reddit and Kotaku started weeks long campaigns demanding it be added till he caved. Were you not here for the 2.0 launch?>>737685827Because it's fucking true

>>737685043You can, but like how one would say the earth is a sphere to a flat earther.
>>737685812We didn't see any DoT damage floating text in the preview (at least I don't think so) so it would be interesting that iinstead of the usual 3-seconds server tick it actually ticked every second.Or maybe they're still experimenting with the DoT length so it's just a placeholder.
>>737685381Would be cool if they added new songs.We've had the Mage/Army/Wanderer trio for what, 5 expansions now?
>>737685870spitballin' here but I reckon that the classes are similar enough that one change can easily snowball into several
>>737685883The moment I checked out was when I realized Shaaloani wasn't finally our time to do our stuff there but just a commercial break before The Wuk Lamat Show continued. I honestly think Dawntrail would've gone over much better if she had stayed behind to govern the city at that point.
>>737685870Probably got told to start working on it a while ago, expansion development takes a bit
>>737685927even worse

>>737685813https://kotaku.com/final-fantasy-xiv-will-allow-same-sex-marriage-after-al-1588933399Shit like this makes me wonder how many of the current players aren't just massive secondaries
>game of thrones world (covered in ice, monsters prowl around)this is definitely maehiro writing
>>737685785He made it a lot more accessible but I think old pvp was funny as fuckhttps://youtu.be/7-ojRzUBr70
>>737685926I just don't understand how that's relevant to us making fun of WoWfags complaining about needing to do MSQ
>>737685876>The dots were just instantly falling off because the target dummy was constantly refreshing.I doubt that. You can see it when they use them, the timer starts at exactly 3 seconds.
>>737685876Yeah. People really need to ignore any numbers or effects in that demonstration. The target dummy was doing as you said and they had auto-attacks turned off entirely I believe.
>rewatching day 1 stream>hordes of seething WAR mains in chat upon learning they wont get to be main tank anymoredo tanks really?
>>737685950Looking at Evolved DRG. I can already see that, they now have Uncoiled Fury and I wouldn't be suprised if every other melee DPS got their own Uncoiled Fury as well.
>>737686007Whatever you say sis. Bard will definitely have 3s dots with a 60s cd in 8.0.
So how is Summoner going to "evolve"? I remember being so disappointed that all we got was light blue bahamut
>>737685870All the actions exist, it's not like he's crafting something entirely from the ground up here. What things are getting cut were typically superfluous to begin with. I can't imagine he's actually doing it ALL by himself since he has to communicate with the rest of the team for implementation, concepts and ideas, and actually getting new meter code and everything in there among other changed effects. The dude's a planner, not one coder that makes the difference of the whole thing. At that point you just pick, choose, and reformulate what works within the game's limitations.
>MSQ bloat not addressedYeah, that game will continue declining. Who tf wants to play alone for 400 in a MMORPG except severe autists?
>>737686057Except MNK.
>>737686054What happens if you have 2 off tanks in your party? Or 2 main tanks?
>>737686006>how that's relevant to us making fun of WoWfags complaining about needing to do MSQARRfags are WoWfags and given your lack of knowledge on basic update history controversies clearly you're an even bigger one seeing as you came in later into the already creeping WoWification of this game. There is no difference between you and those you wish weren't associated with you.
>>737685870already has half the job cut out for him with pvp actions already existing in game
>>737686105Which he also made.
>>737686092Nothing unless you're in Savage content.And even in Savage, I wouldn't be surprised if double OT is still workable just like SGE/SCH.
>>737686105>cut out for himMore like pre-done by himself years ago.
>>737686092One of them swaps to reborn mode.
>>737686092They probably won't be different enough that it matters. PLD and the new guy will have one more personal defense cooldown and the rest will have one extra group defense cooldown, or some shit like that.
>>737686092wont matter in content that isnt savage or ultimate which 90% of the playerbase dont dothe 10% will have already discussed beforehand what tank jobs go in
>doing the Evangelion raid>doing the Misato flashback section>have to watch her have sex with Kaji while she reconciles with her father's deaththis raid is ass man
Rate Evo-White Mage.
>>737685926"As you know, each country has a different way of thinking. So first we would like to start out with opposite-sex marriage, and then consider the feedback from our players in order to make a careful decision.I can’t say whether or not it will be possible at this point in time. I’d like to keep dialog open with our players as we deliberate the matter."Is there a quote older than this one? because it sounds like they were always going to spitball it, since he asked for feedback. Same shit with the male viera thing, you have to be a retard to think they never planned to add fem hroth or male viera
>>737686126>>737686150prime-sama......i kneel....
>>737686092They compare it to main and shield healers. Off tanks are supposed to be a bit more unorthodox seemingly, and focus on sustaining parties versus eating shit like main tanks do. So really, it's probably just a different flavor that happens to be designed with party synergy if you have both an OT and MT.
>>737683816>That, I can't denyMy nigga.
>>737684752HW upgraded just about everything honestly. It kept all the fun skills from 2.0 and simply added more to the kit. A lot of jobs felt fairly complex and had a good amount of variety and unpredictability in their playstyles, which could be fairly challenging to keep up with while paying attention to mechanics. From Stormblood and onward is when that stuff went downhill. Dumbing everything down, homogenizing all roles more and more with each expansion.
>>737685997Why is it always Kotaku, Polygon or Reddit?>>737686006It's relevant because the argument being made is anyone from 2.0 onward is the very thing you seem to despise.
>>737686183>evangelion raid>ACTIVE TIME EVENT>mashing X to choke this teenage german girl
>>737682628the only way it'll suck is if it actually deletes the few unique playstyles leftie dancer's simon says, ninja mudras or red mage's mana balancing filler.

>>737682956>Guess who's back>Slim shady reference >New job is called marshal
>still going with numetal guitarsFucking boomer cringe. Can we get a main theme with real instruments?
>People often say the PvP versions of the jobs actually feel more like the jobs than the PvE versions do>PvP guy gets put in charge of changing every job in PvE to feel more like that>People complain that he's doing what people were praising but for PvEI don't get it. This is quite possibly one of the based things to happen to this game in years.
>>737686283Evercold is the expansion you're finally gonna do the new midcore difficulty raids
>>737686245It really depends on the job. I would say at least 1/3rd of them were strictly better in SB than HW. The quality undeniably fell off a cliff in ShB though.
>>737686256Two party members have to button mash to choke eachother and everyone else has to kill adds to break them apart
>>737686187Seems exactly as braindead.I think healers will really depend on SE delivering on their promise of fights requiring more GCD healing.
>>737686303shockingly, different people exist
>>737686102I knew what you were talking about. Just again I have no idea what that has to do with WoWcucks whining about needing to do MSQIt sounds like a very nonsensical response to a factual part of the games history.
>>737686259>it'll suck is if it actually deletes the few unique playstyles leftWhat do you think it's going to do? If they were focusing on job identity they'd be up for the massive DPS parity not trying to eliminate it. A game where everyone is equal is one that strips identity for the sake of parity. Card games like Yugioh or MTG should make that perfectly clear.
>>737686259I'm not sure how they can consolidate Mudras to 16 buttons alongside all their other functions, honestly. Half expect NIN to somehow end up more like a mode change with according payoff attacks at that point.
>Main tank and off tank could be like shield healer and pure healer nowSo one of them will be objectively superior in every way than the other one?I don't like the sound of that
Will we see this nigga in this game as well?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3wP4k3El_M
>>737686187Surely these motherfuckers wont remove assize - the best looking spell animation on whm? honestly it feels like whatever was the expansion which pruned abilities from jobs like BRD flip aoe and shittons from DRK and i hate it
>>737682541Alongside with the quote about joining the shards together (or whatever), they're trying to bait us into thinking we're the bad guys now. Of course it's just another "become the warrior of darkness" moment.
>>737686373The best looking spell animation on WHM was Aero III and they deleted it without hesitation.
>>737686367Both Ramiel and Leliel are likely since they're both iconic and can just re-use Ozma's rig with little changes.
>>737686102>>737686246>It's relevant because the argument being made is anyone from 2.0 onward is the very thing you seem to despise.No I'm saying we mocked WoWfags that came to the game and complained about MSQ being required.I never said anything about EB or gay marriage or kotaku or anything anons. Are you well?
>>737686373>>737686395You can get alternate skill animations as battle pass rewards, so maybe they'll be back.
>>737686183>evangelion raid>whole team gets sucked up by Leilel>have to listen to the troon in discord talk about how is father hates him>au'ra female in the group comes out of the angel naked>can see her penis
>>737686395Well with Spell Skins coming in Evercold there's a possibility you can regain Aero.
>>737686336>I knew what you were talking about.
>>737686340i like mtg
Does an Evangelion raid story-wise mean that the ice giants in the fourth were actually mecha in the years past?
>>737686342>I'm not sure how they can consolidate Mudras to 16 buttonshttps://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/jobguide/ninja/#pvpHere you go.
>>737686303The big thing with online games like this is that people hate change if it uproots what they're used to. And for one particular portion, vocal minority or not, the game had basically catered to them so much that every boss and every player mechanic basically got finetuned to their optimizations. So yeah, having that thrown out the window without prior warning because the game nearly fuckin died has them howling.
>>737686435>>737686442Half of it kinda survived, you can sse it now with Glare but the other half did not. They would do the floaty cast animation but then like clap their hands above their head with sound effect and it was timed with the animation of Aero III going off. It just looked cool.
>>737686259I want them to rape DNC and turn it into XI DNC
>>737686453>He thinks 'what' was not bewilderment about why he started talking about EBs when I mentioned WoWfags hating having to do MSQ to unlock shit....but was me literally saying 'what' in confusionYou got the 'tism son?
>>737683471>DNCHard to say, the only thing I can see them changing from how it currently works is that they squish the filler stuff into two buttons instead of 1 (so that you still need to alternate between stuff at random), squish all of the fan actions into a single button that might change depending on how many procs you get, makes dances be movement speed, defensive and regen buffs while making all of the Dance Partner buffs stronger while squishing them into a single buff button that might change depending on what dance you just finished or what partner you have.The most radical change I can see them doing is turning step actions into semi-mudra where the order of which step you use changes what kind of buff the dance finisher gives to the party and/or your partner but instead of there being a set list of buffs you essentially just build stats onto one big buff so that each step builds that stat up before you press the finisher:>Emboite = Damage done when you press "finish">Entrechat = Damage taken decrease>Jete = Heal>Pirouette = Duration of the final buffIf you press them in a certain order, one of the buff effects changes with a maximum of 4/6/8 steps allowed (increases as you level DNC)If you do a 1-2-3-4 you might get a "standard" finish where you get a generic buff that deals damage, heals and gives everyone a defensive for 10 sec, if you do 1-2-1-4 you might get a speed buff instead of a defensive buff for 10 sec with no healing, etc. This essentially changines the "effect" of the buff that is surrounded by the other dance moves in the sequence depending on the moves you use to surround the singular move with and at max level you can create two unique combos this way instead of just one.It would make DNC a hell of a lot harder to get gud at but also more fun to play in a supportive role Although, since DNC is currently the standard "girlfriend" job along with WHM I guess that something like this would be too "hard"
I just hate how I need to redo my keybindsand bars.
Everybody quit FFXIV to play PSO on the Ephinea private server. nobody likes FFXIV anymore it's all PSO all day now

>>737686683No one is samefagging, faggot.
SAM has been my main since SB, and I really have no back up job. If I had to pick it'd be MNK, I guess. I personally thought Reaper was boring as fuck. I need to try out Viper, but it looked "fun" to me. For a game with so many jobs I really don't care for a lot of them...it must be autism or I just know what I like/want.

You're so desperate to pretend you're not the type of player that's the issue. You fucking WoWfags, especially those that came way after ARR like you, are why we're in this story state. Again you're so fucking desperate to distance yourself from a specific type of WoWfag in hopes of splitting yourself from your actual crowd and hoping others aren't also laughing at you.
>>737686685I like MCH in PvP so I probably would.
>>737683006I've played the game casually, on and off, and don't really understand this, or how this is a good/bad thing. So they're removing things like Brotherhood with the 5% buff from all classes? Why is it such a big deal?

>>737686187whatever/10It's probably going to feel about the same as current whm unless they give you more dps buttons to press or more active healing in fight designs. Personally I would prefer more dps buttons because you get to use them in all contents and not just hard ones.

I thought YoshiP said we were going to get a talent tree instead of 10 more levels.They can't just keep increasing the level cap every expansion otherwise they will run into the problem wow had and be forced to do a level squish which they will have to do again soon.

>>737685927KEK Kate really got fired.
GOODBYE BITCH! THE ARCHDUKE WON!
My problem with an Eva raid is that there are no "real" fights in Eva. Every angel was like a Navy Seals operation on a timer instead of a 12 episode shonen bout. They were character pieces.What are you going to do with that angel that split in two where Shinji and Asuka metaphorically embody sex to work together and beat it in a dance routine?
>>737685927>Kate got firedDANCE THREAD!
>>737686967not at allyou cant really do full time localization work as a theater director so the best assumption is that she's gone, no longer affiliated with SE
>>737687107It would just be exactly like the duo boss in the Nier raids
>>737687107FFXIV fights/ raids aren't 'real' fights either, they're choregraphed memorisation dances. You go outside of the dance dance revolution and you fail.
>>737686740The game got into a weird state where every boss encounter had to be designed around vomiting mechanics every 2 minutes so you'd have some challenge during your buff windows.Also it meant that even a single party member being down or even having rez weakness during a buff window was catastrophic for DPS. Made fights feel like they had body checks even when they didn't.
>>737687107I think it's more likely to tie in with Yoko Taro's thing rather than NGE or Rebuild, but I do also wonder how it's going to go. They said we're going to hear more from the Arcadion characters, I wonder if they're going to pilot Evas and we're going to fight them.
>>737683218>one of the goals of the job rework is letting jobs have their own identity again.How do you do that without introducing disparity in performance metrics?
>>737682837Some of the most difficult and engaging video games ever made run on 3-6 buttonsDesigning your game around button bloat just means mechanics have to become braindead as shit in order to not interrupt your "rotation". MMOtroons cling to it because if you took away their 40 button hotbars there would be nothing left to talk about
>>737684704I am praying the combat rework kills parselards and raidfaggots dead for good

>>737687107I'll beat everything with my fucking fists.
>>737682464Xiv combat is dogshit, you're not really playing just pushing some buttons like a botThe changes are not doing shit
>>737687167You accept that performance disparity is a necessary side effect of individuality and character. Just like with everything else in life
>>737687119>Kate was fucking firedI'll join in the dance party!
>>737684851Insanely basedI hope whoever wrote in that question did so with the intent of trolling the crossdressing males in the crowd because it certainly rustled their jimmies

Final infographic. Rate Evo-Paladin(A few corrections of errors that the original maker did: It's Satisfaction that is an upgrade of Answering Strike, not the otherw ay around,a ndi t's the Imperator button that turns into Confiteor, not the Holy Spirit one.
>>737686994What I think might happen is that in 9.0 (if the game survives until then) they might actually do a level squish down to 100 and then add some form of alternate "leveling" that you need to do on each shard in order to not let shit escalate too hard out of control. I wouldn't be surprised if they just made it so that whatever gear you have is now only useful on whatever shard your on or they invent another leveling system called "Shard strenght" or something that just functions like "light" does in D2, AKA an ever increasing number that only buffs your health, damage and defense 0.1% per level and that might be locked to whatever shard your on (or not).We just have to face the music at this point and accept that the only combat customization we are ever going to get are melds and which job we are playing.
>>737687182>Turns his own struggles into a boss to overcomeIt's like pottery
>>737687235>You accept that performance disparity is a necessary side effect of individuality and characterSo you don't see how that's an issue with their attempts to get rid of said disparity with Evolved? You understand they're going to treat "Job Identity" as "cool animation and particle effects" right?
>Kate was firedHope is rekindled. The game might stop pandering to woke retards now.
>>737685381I'll withold final judgement until the changes are live, but on the face of it this looks like ass. They've killed the entire mechanical identity of the job and replaced it with fucking utility buffs.
>>737687254Also things the infographic maker left out:>Shield Lob and Shield Bash are now the same button and are distance-dependant.>Shield Lob is now AoE.
>>737683306XIV's current raids are some of the best boss fights ever in the entire medium from a pure mechanics perspective. Whoever that guy is, he's crazy.

>>737687337>they're going to treat "Job Identity" as "cool animation and particle effects"The new DRG jump doesn't look like it's just animation and particle effects
>>737687418It was that guy is just schizophrenic, Yoshida said from the beginning they would accept player feedback before implementation and nothing was finalized but they were cautious.
>>737687054How does this prove she's been fired? It's an all-volunteer company, not her job.
>>737687440>every single xivtroonYou mean parsetroons? They do not represent the majority of theplayerbase. Only they argued that, because they managed to browbeat the devs into following their mental illness and they endlessly celebrated that.
>>737687254I'm not a big fan of dash to cover but otherwise it looks fine. Will have to reserve judgement for most of these changes until they give the full kit though. So far the only one I think is just straight up better is dragoon.
>>737687478Do not reply to him, please be like everybody else and just talk about the game.
>>737687437Maybe the devs should have asked themselves that question at some point before they spent over 10 years building the current mechanical identity of the job. I'll acknowledge that the current playstyle doesn't exactly scream "bard" but it's fun and that's the part that I care about.

>>737685381The changes to the effects of the songs themselves is fantasticI'm iffy on DOTS being locked behind a song and even iffier on AOES being locked behind one, I haven't gotten BRD high enough to know what the wanderer's minuet combo skills there are, big dick damage I guess, that's cool, and I guess if that's big dick damage the others had to be things like DOTS and AOEs to have a reason to existto some extent I can understand the AOE combos being all 1 button but I would have liked DOTs to still be 2 separate buttons, although broadly speaking I would across the entire evolved concept prefer less 1 button combos than what we are gettingthe song oGCD things are coolthe radiant thing has me curious though, how much of a damage loss are you getting if you repeat a song, is it just a minor bonus for finding a chance to use all 3 songs or is it less about which songs you use and more about which order you do them inagain i'm not keen on single button combos in general, except as a reward for doing your multi button combothe dash attack thing is cool as shit, I assume all the RDPS will get something similar though, maybe the current DNC dash can get some AOE on self damage added to it or something
>>737687418Look at the date bro>2014They have been pandering to those people before 90% of this thread were playing this game

>>737686795>>737687162Thanks, sounds like it's a good thing then. I hope the jobs get some sort of niche utility or something to compensate, just to feel like you can contribute something else than just raw damage.
Are they going to phase out Reborn completely at some point?
>>737687340>Rebecca loved Emet so much she created a character in her own game, hired his voice actor and made him romanceableI wouldn't be surprised if she had a shrine to Emet in her house.
>>737687337>cool animation and particle effectsThat is exactly how it works currently though, pretty much every job in a role all share most basic gameplay elements with each other with a few standouts. You are just playing a role and it has been that way since ShB instead of playing a job, with the things we've seen it seems like that will still most likely be the case but there will be more sub-roles and every job will seemingly have at least one gimmick good or bad, just like how PvP currently works.
>>737687608They almost assuredly will

>>737687563Ahmaybe they can make that the 110 ability, a second stack on each song and slots for the radiant to supply a little more versatility

Also she's a known ABDL mommy and was willing to fight Megan over the shota Packet.
HE
>>737687608Guaranteed, they are probably only keeping the old stuff around as an escape hatch if the evolved stuff doesn't pan out and to also minimize the whining from tranny raiders that can't deal with not being rDPS chasers anymore.
To be perfectly honest, tying themselves down toj ust 16 buttons or less is stretching themselves pretty thin.I think 18 buttons would have allowed for better balance of actions.
>>737687440>But every single xivtroon has argued for years that xiv has better combat with more depth than wow because of the number of buttons they were pushing..XIV has better combat with more depth than WoW *and* has more buttons, not *because* it has more buttons. You have retard brain.
>>737685381>partywide regen>partywide healkino desu
>>737687767I think 16 buttons right now is a good constraint to have. It means they'll have room to expand the jobs later.
>>737687608It's not even speculation. YoshiP literally said that they're keeping Reborn as a style to avoid a Star Wars Galaxy-level fuckup in which changing the core gameplay caused an unrecoverable disaster cascade.If Evolution as an experiment fails, then tehy still have the Reborn-style to fall back on.

>took Yoshi announcing Evolved to get players on board with what a plugin has done for multiple expansionsHOLY KEK. The best part is the predictable attempt to deflect any hate to the raidtroons when said raidtroons have effectively been playing "Evolved" versions of Jobs already.
>>737686601True. Ninja has like 20 "do damage" oGCDs that are there just to make you feel like you're doing something every 2 minutes. Going full PVP route is too much, but if you wanted to consolidate buttons, having 3 buttons change into each of the mudras makes sense too if you really didn't want to dedicate 3 buttons just for the mudras.

What action skill skins do you want returning. Even old shit from 1.0.
>>737687952>How are the non PLD tanks taking the news?The real quest is whether or not counter attack damage is worth whatever the OTs bring to the table. If counter potency sucks, the meta might be OT/OT

>>737686187Oh, I thought the part of the gauge that said lilies was just a placeholder to remind testers that sanctity was the replacement for lillies, it still being a thing with a new purpose makes more sense, it's kind of a cool idea but doesn't blow me away.Sanctity itself is a really cool idea, as much as I liked the old lilly system it's a small price to pay for thisthe 2 skill basic attack combo is a step up but I still would have preferred it on 2 separate buttons, also I really would have liked the second or first attack to be elemental since there's so little of that conjurer theming left in white mage, maybe the skill reskinning thing will fix thispersonally though I hope Holy remains largely untouched, still a cast bar and still stuns, otherwise dungeon packs are just gonna get split up from the insta cast stunI know it's a meme but I am still a little sad to see cure 1 go but I guess for what tiny niche utility it had afflatus solace is there for that nowI hope raise gives sanctity charges, would be pretty lame if it doesn't, maybe only 1 charge if you swiftcast and 3 charges for a hardcastone thing that's not in this image but I thought I saw in the showcase was it looked like aquaveil and divine benison get cast together at the same time when you press the button, which initially really bothered me but I have come to realize it makes a lot more sense from a leveling perspective, you start with divine benison and then later you get to add a second shield on top of it. still this is technically one less shield charge, but then WHM isn't meant to be a shield healerthe speed buff on temperance is cool I guessI really hope they don't change Liturgy of the Bell at all

Imagine, instead of the boss standing still in the middle while you do your 2 min mandatory burst rotation, the entire encounter is a dance of death, where you need to keep actively dodging patterns and doing mechanics while still doing dps. Just imagine

>>737687163I doubt if the arcadion fighters are there it will be in a major role because they need to be able to cut them out for people who haven't done the raidsthe final tier of the arcadion should have had an MSQ lock so Sphene could come in to cheer you on dammitStill though it's crazy what they said at the fanfest that only what was it 85% of players do the normal raids, I can get some people not wanting to do alliance raids but normal raids, baffling, are they scared off by coils?
>>737688520>>737688581Barbariccia EX was the last time I had legitimate fun in this game. That was such a great fight.
>>737688520I wouldn't expect much, I mean we used to have raids where tanks actually had to move bosses and they didn't stand in the middle.
THEYRE FIXINGEVERYTHING
>>737688456That could be any black streamer.
>>737688543There's still plenty of mechanics that allow you to take damage without takign debuff stacks.Raidwides, all types of stack/pair mechanics, Flares, towers, and so on. At least one of those every 20 seconds is almsot guaranteed
>>737688138also what the fuck what about cure 3, I don't want to lose that, are they gonna move it's effect to another healer or something
>>737683471BLM:1-2-3: Fire combo, Blizzard comboMain Actions: Flare Star, Frost Star, Thunder (gets unlocked after using a Star)Job-Defining Actions: Paradox (Next Blizzard combo does as much damage as the Fire combo, Blizzard = free movement)Specialty Actions: Leylines, Aetherial Manipulation
>>737688492Can’t wait for 3 MTs constantly fighting for aggro while I’m trying to do positionals in every 24-man from now on.
>>737688520I don't want too much "patterns' as such, I suck at the parts where you have to remember 5 attacks at once
>>737688654>tanks standing in shit to take unnecessary damage to do more damage>healers actually having to heal them and not getting trolled in the processjust as god intended.
>I've spent over $2000 on this game>I've played over 4000 hours of this game>i bounced off dawntrail twice>but I'm finally back
>>737688638>media grifter circle is in full force againI am so over any kind of commentator/eceleb/community rep. Yeah things look cool but people really need to stop hyping things up to retarded levels like this.
>>737688543>or vuln stack if you get hitHEALERS ADJUST
What was the reason to remove PLDs block (or was it parry?)counter it had in ARR?
Why suddenly everyone is sure that this expansion will be good??
>>737688920
>>737688879everyone is just hopeful because literally anything is better than dawntrail and the people that made it suck appear to be gone.
>>737688661it might be bound to WHM's dash (copium)
Will they make it easier to play a second character??FUCK grinding jobs and the MSQ all over again>just (((buy))) the skipI know
>>737688798Because raidtrannies hate rng abilities.
>>737689001No
>>737688734>tanks just side step the tank busterretard
>>737689001Universal item level so you wont need another character
>>737689001I'm an altoholic and the thing that always kills me is unlocking jobsit's either getting past ARR or leveling to at least 70, and it makes me wanna eat a rubber bullet
>>737684851Kids! If you hate yourself as a boy, becoming a girl won't fix the problem! 41% is a bigger number than people realize! And more and more of the other 59% are jumping to that other side every hour! Don't make big pharma richer by selling you false hope. Instead, focus on becoming a person you can be proud of in the skin you're in!
>>737689108That’s not what doctor Shekelberg told me. Trust the science chud.
>>737688291>dick up another man's ass analogy out of nowhere
>>737688106Rich is also going to play again. Yep. It begins.
>>737687616Incredibly based. I have to assume the warframe team live in fear of her wandering over with some massive document detailing exactly how Roathe’s nipples need to look or something similar.
Is liking ffxiv among "content creators" is now a cool thing again? Soon they will start saying that DT was actually not that bad.
>>737685682>Anyone from ARR onwards is a form of WoWfag.Never played WoW and never will, I started XIV in 2.0 because I like Final Fantasy and I had time to kill at the time.
people are basing their reactions to the evolved controls on 7.5 skills but we'll get more skills in 8.0seems pretty premature since 1-2 skills really makes or breaks a job sometimes
>>737687054>all-volunteereven worse than working at subway desuSHE DOES IT FOR FREE
>>737689697They said that in the new system jobs will have their full set of buttons at Lv50 and past that is just upgrades (like what happens to Bard every expansion)So there might be extra moves added to a chain or a fancy animation upgrade or whatever but I don't think there's gonna be more than 16 buttons this expansion at least.
>>737682590I figure it's more that this is the first expansion in a long time that isn't dealing with tech debt backlog, so they can focus it on the areas that matter.Trusts to the MSQ are done. Upgrading old zones/ugly dungeons that they planned for are done. Visual upgrades are done in general, etc.
>>737689001it's +++buy+++ these days unc.
>>737684851based preordering evercold ultimate edition
>>737686568Do you really want to eat balut or other SEA abominations?
>>737690338more like evermale
>>737687608Probably but it might also stay forever for old content because they don't want to bother balancing old fights (like ultimates, even if they get passively nerfed anyway) around evolved
