Why is it only ffxiv that faggots complain about? 20 tifa threads a day is fine, 20 gacha threads that are nothing but goon pics, 20 RE grace threads all fine, but how dare you talk about a game
not playing unless they add burmecians
>THEY thought they were getting an ilsabard garlenigger slop expansion last week. THEY REALLY THOUGHT THIS. OHNONONONOONONNONON
>>738100334I don't see why you should magically be exempt
>>738100264Very. Plus youre only allowed one piece a week. Super annoying.
>>738099409Your WoL is now a demigod. You got hit with all the power of solution 9 and it didn't kill you, plus all the gods and goddesses you've defeated. The new expansion is acknowledging that.
>>738100774this is fine. i just dont like alisaie fucking screeching like a cunt when serious matters are discussed in a cutscene. she doesnt add shit to anything.
when is yawnfail going on sale for 50% off again? you would think with the hype evercold is given they would capitalize on it with dawntrail discount + free playtime but the japs are doing nothing as usual
>doomgods saved the game>again
>>738100901they have a discont on square store but not steam, im waiting for the the steam discount btw
>>738100724I ran the previous one with DNC despite not being my main job. And sometimes the party was pure aiming dps. I like my chances as healer. The rest of the sets are meh, especially the Fending and Maiming ones
>he buyed XIV on steam
>>738099409Ooookay?
>>738101031>he failed 3rd grade english
>>738101075>he misspelled failered

>>738101075Clearly that user was making an Indian english joke.
>>738101009I kinda like this set better as a refresh of the ARR PLD artifact than the actual refresh, since ARR's artifact gear had a lot of recreations of XI artifacts anywaysI will say though I really don't like XI's Thief design and I'm iffy on its Red Mage design, I have the problem a lot with FFXI's artifacts that they're too beholden to FFXI's own artstyle and they flat out won't do certain jobs' aesthetics if it clashes too hard with XI's style, like Geomancer and Blue Mage
I'm on board the Hoard Boulder train.Though would be really silly for them to have just a single line of voiced dialog after 4 years just randomly.
>>738101031>>738101075>>738101106>>738101129>he is playering the retarded
Eight more monthsPlease enjoy being plastered by atrocious mogstation shit to recoup the lossesAnd keep the rent going so you don't lose your house!
>>738101009This jus treminds me that they really need to update more old gear already.
>catching up, ilvl 734>XI second step okay lets go>mmm the floor is so warmJesus fuck I'm outta practice on 14, sure, but there's so much happening and I didn't have a first run full of people that knew what to do yet. We're lucky one alliance held on and did LB3 revives. TWICE.

>>738101167>scions busy doing nerd things.>hoardy boulder and you speak 3 times to npcs to help>he asks wol how theyre doing>wol options did you just spit roast aenor a few months ago?
>>738101178I was planning to keep playing anyway.
>>738101159yeah, but they could've added COR for Viper, picrel for Dragoon, a White Mage AF instead of a recolored Red Mage, XI SAM for Striking.To hell with aesthetic clash, it literally doesn't matter anymore due the recent glam changes
>>738101309Pay him no mind, dude thinks he needs to scramble MD5s so he doesn't show up in archives, over player census data that anybody can find with a google search
>>738101341I really wanted the DRG set.
>>738101341Aesthetic clash with FFXIV isn't my concern, it's aesthetic clash within FFXI itself lending to bland artifact armorsCase in point that Dragoon set, which only really stands out as such because of the helmet's wings and the purple coloration
>>738101391>which only really stands out as such because of the helmet's wings and the purple colorationreplace the pants with 2B's leggins and you have a 10/10 DRG bikini armor
>>738099409>>738099753this is the same personthat said never trust yoshida's words unless you get actual live gameplay video of it
>>738101341>no black mage af1What, were they worried we might actually want the af sets?
>>738101463I do furiously masturbate whenever I see somebody wearing 2B thong with Trueblood or Drachen armor, maybe I just have a hate-boner for FFXI being afraid to have plate armor that's too fantastical
>>738101218>MaleraOh no...Fufucha is under rated though, Momodi usually gets most of the background NPC attention
>ff9 expansion almost done> no vivi or stainer setGAAAAAAAY
>X picks up that I like memes, vidya franchises and FF14 finally instead of politislop>Start getting posts by the Japanese too>They're lalafell posts talking about how plump lalafells areMaybe there is good in the world>>738099409I am cautiously optimistic, as you should be
>>738101517what is it with armor + thong combinations
my conspiracy theory as to why they're unlocking literally every possible skin color for every race>they can just have wide populations of hyurs, roe, etc. on each shard take on a color of the rainbow and call it an entirely separate people without making them 1:1 clones on the sourcein all reality all this means is that there's going to be obnoxious XD so random fags walking around in the brightest ugliest skin and hair colors possible with giant afros and horrific metallic dyes thinking that being loud is a personality
>>738101009>healer variant looks better on RDM than the caster variant
>>738101559Historia fending set for Steiner, hopefully 8.0 letting you toggle certain parts of armors lets us remove the capeThe casting and healing set are some odd chop-and-screw of Vivi and a White Mage, but the shoes and pants make for excellent Vivi wear since they already come as green baggy pants and brown boots
>>738101598>in all reality all this means is that there's going to be obnoxious XD so random fags walking around in the brightest ugliest skin and hair colors possible with giant afros and horrific metallic dyes thinking that being loud is a personalityi feel like this will only be a problem for like a weekthe novelty of begging for attention by being as garish as possible is generally short-lived
>>738101546is there a meme about the Malera? i just started playing...
>>738101598The only people that're gonna do that are gonna be the people you already see dancing 24/7 in Limsa's aetheryte plaza, very few people actually like being goblinasIt most likely is for what you say though, it's super noticeable in Stormblood where Gosetsu is the only "Othardian subrace Roegadyn" without a poopnose because everybody else had to be a Hellsguard
>>738101598Sorry anon, I'm gonna make a tan cat girl and give her vanilla blonde hair
>>738101218>maleraOh brother lmaoooo>>738101670Malera get written off as the groomers in NA and EU 14 stuffYour affinity for lala plays into the memeFufucha is very cute though
>>738101670They are associated with groomer sexpests
>be me>log in to do stuff>realize upon finally logging in that evolve jobs aren't in the game yet> ):
>>738101723>>738101729oh well...shit
>>738101490They could have used the First Walk for black mage, instead of making a bunch of Ark Angels glams that no one uses. I've yet to see anyone sporting the complete setpic rel was my ideal lineup
You know what would be refreshing? Just have Kefka be the next main villain. Don't explain it, just have him come from ffvi and delightfully fuck our lives up. No, I dont care about the ultimate.
>>738101729Let's be honest, a lot of them gravitated towards Miera.
>>738101568Raidtranny deathNOOSE
>>738101713Oh no, how horrible! Anything but that!
>>738101670It USED to be memed as the groomer race, Xaela in particular also have a reputation as having edgelord players. I think most of the actual groomers now play bunboys though, it's probably less applicable and it's not like people will just avoid you in game because of it.
>>738101669I still occasionally see metallic dye clown suits and that shit hasn’t been popular since HW.
>>738101767I wouldnt worry about it too much. I have met one who was like that but they are usually chill from my experience.
>>738101670>maleralmao. malera and male viera are THE groomer races.
>>738101663also, i hate how the butcher necron theme on the trialhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IXijnKO8Ow&list=RD3IXijnKO8Ow&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJzbUAWLblU&list=RDpJzbUAWLblU&start_radio=1
Big Nigga Chort is slamming void pussy all day long, and basically, you're stupid.Click here to find out how!!!
>the new tank is gonna be a DUAL SHIELD TANK XDWhy are people that play this game so dumb?
>>738101790Yeah would have been about perfect. They should have done them all though.
>>738101867I've been chortmaxxing for years and it's finally paying off.
>>738101867Zero is SO lucky
>>738101857>ur so mature for ur age lol
>>738101790I've contemplated actually using some Ark Angel pieces. They're pretty good looking, and they dye fairly well from what I've seen.
NEXT TANK COMING THROUGH!!
>>738101857Third on the top row and first on the bottom row are bioholes.
>>738101869I think it's gonna be a dueling shield
>>738101930Oh look, another ivalice race i would have played as.
>>738101790>>738101490>thinking fending/maiming and caster/healer and scouting/striking/aiming won't be reskins of each other foreverThey are LAZY. They just reskin sets for 3 gear types every single time. I wanted the DRG set but knew this would happen.
>WARfags are still screeching about their demotion to PLD's sidekick
>>738101790Argh...is that THREE extra armour sets that we would have to make/port over and re-texture? I'm afraid the budget couldn't handle it
>>738101857literally every male is a groomer if they're dressed in all black looking like a fuck boy.
>>738102006Couldn't ffxi warriors use any weapon they wanted? Might be nice to return to that system
>>738102059TRVKE
>>738101857i just wanted to be a dragoon ;_;
>>738102083Yeah, that's usually what warrior does in FF. XIV's version is actually a Berserker but it's called Warrior to make it more familiar to FFXI players, who were still the primary audience in 1.X.
>>738102083Iirc yeah their niche was they can USE any equipment you find, but you're still mostly gonna want to use greataxes
>>738102095Don't let people or gay stigmas drive you away from something, anon. Otherwise all you'll be left with is Roe NIN or something.People define who they are. Behave normally, and you'll be just fine.
So has enough time passed that we can admit that Endwalker was worse than Dawntrail? By A LOT?
When is standard camera/movement mode gonna get a fuckin backwards run and not a slow walk, its been 13 YEARS
>>738102173
>>738102059Damn, you got me.
>>738101857>Male wearing butler / bouncer apparel: HELLO, POLICE???>Female wearing butler /bouncer apparel: AWOOOOOOGA PLEASE LET ME BREEDWhy are XIV players like this?
>>738100972I'd be pumped too, this was Yoshi-P's reaction to XIV finally getting support (money) from a Square Enix CEO
>>738101829Only thing I'm raiding is your mother's bedroom after badly flirting with her>>738102006I think the only thing people really have their eye on for Warrior is if they're losing their self heals or Bloodwhetting
>>738102189Standardfags deserve less than nothing.
>>738102189Uhhhhh change to Legacy movement type? Standard is tank controls
>>738102164jokes aside I’m having fun role playing as kain & cecil from ff4, I’m going to do dark knight on shadow bringers and paladin on endwalker just to emulate cecil history
>>738102207>Female wearing butler /bouncer apparel: AWOOOOOOGA PLEASE LET ME BREEDyes
>>738102221that's because XIV is literally half of square's revenue at this point. they keep throwing money at flops and legacy rehashes
>>738101670if you would consult the chart
>>738102173Gameplay wise? Yeah.But so was ShB.
>>738102416umm.. so i guess im typce C...
>>738101009Geared up my Sage and started learning how to play it just so I can get that healer chest next week. I don't play healer ever outside of leveling it during expansions, and this is my first time healing current patch content. Thankfully Windurst is the easiest one in the XI raids.
>>738102416Im type C midlander (main character)
>>738102416Highlander is greater Roegadyn.
>>738102565You could be drifting into a comma and still clear any Alliance Raid as current content
>>738102616I remember fantasia'ing from roe to highlander and laughing out loud that the two share voices
>>738102416not accurate at all lmao
>>738102668Only because that image is ancient and those male-only types have moved onto Viera.
>>738102416haha yeah the lalafell are heckin badass kneecap shatterers and memebosses xd
>>738102697the only accurate part is "huge weaboo" in my case
>>738102416Viera should be>Type A (female only)Male-to-Female transsexual who only explicitly tops and will never cut off their dick, has worst fashion tastes out of any race in the game and will always remind people they're trans>Type B (female only)Woman with severe self-esteem issues who wanted to be the prettiest girl at the prom but was too fat / nerdy to do so>Type CNormal individual that wanted to play a semi-human race with big ears but hated how shitty Elezen looked with their necks and bad animations>Type D (male only)Will actively pursue and groom every woman he senses, best troon detector in the game, can only color coordinate white and black and occasionally red>Type E (male only)Radicalized female-hating gay men with the best glams you've ever seen and the occasional stealth fag hag in their midst
>>738102416There's surprisingly little material of Lalafell actually doing the dirty, for the ERP and degenerate scene surrounding them. Sometimes I want to see one of these midgets riding pole but the internet can't provide
>your juniors make such a shit expansion all the older crews have to comeback to make a new oneL.O.L. fire hiroi.
I just did Meso Terminal for the 1st timeThat solo boss fight was cool af
FFXIV: Combat Devolved
>>738102757>can only color coordinate white and black and occasionally redDamn, not even a Viera and I feel called out
whats the big deal it works on my machine
>>738102697Only if they are female irl.
>>738102805god please yes, why the fuck do i need 3 bottoms for a dragoon combo when the second skill can substitute the first one after use, is fucking retarded
>>738102805>they condensed 9 1-2-3 buttons into 3 buttons>the fucking horror ahhhhh save me piano man
>>738102416I am going to be honest: I will never understand how hyur with cat ears, big hyur, small hyur and hyur with sea shells taped to the sides of their head developed some sort of superiority complex about how "not boring" and "fantastical" they are.
>>738102794>want to move onto greener pastures, emphasize other projects more for your experienced dev team>realize you literally can't afford to do this or the entire company might capsize because of itHonestly the only way they leave XIV now is for it to go to maintenance mode or shut down.
I picked male Elezen because I thought they looked cool and genuinely felt guilty because I assumed I was picking the most popular basic btich race like Blood Elves in WoW
>>738102930Nah. Elezen are a premium pick.
>>738102895>trannypilgrim posteruh huh.
>>738102930Absolutely nobody played Elezen before the graphics update and they're still pretty rare.
>>738099753can you show us these complete reworks? so far I’m seeing a couple of extra OGCD attacks
>>738102957You know what this is from better than I do.For me, this is just a deliberately condescending reaction image.
>>738102416Hyur midlander is the only acceptable race
Started playing XI a week ago and while it asks for a bit of tweaking via plogons it’s actually pretty cool
>>738102930they are too lanky for that. I like their lankiness, which makes them unique in a game where every race is so similar.basic bitch here is catgirls, for obvious reasons
>>738102956How times have changed. Back in ARR my FC made fun of me all the time for playing a Melezen
>>738102805this might make me to pick up MNK for roulettes and non instanced content
all I have left is HW culinarian quests, and stormblood most crafter quests. been doing this shit all day man.my inventory lookin empty but I put a lot of my ilvl into the glamour dresser.new house decorated on the outside but empty on the inside.this shit aint nothin to me man
>>738102930Male elezen are really cool BUT some gear look awful on them and their running animation is the worst.
>>738103050they still do.
>>738102416Type c femra here. my WoL is my daughterwaifu. lizar
>>738103074>their running animation is the worstmalera still have the crash bandicoot run
>>738102757>Type E (male only)>Radicalized female-hating gay menIs there a story to this lol.
>>738103050I like their regal vibes and always have. Not the race for me. I'm not a fan of race changing, and I started as something else, so I'm sticking to that.Maybe I'll make an alt someday.
>>738103128Still better than malezen "holding in a dookie between your buttcheeks while trying to find a toilet" run.
>>738103050ever notice how paypiggies always have the worst fashion sense? lol
>>738099409>>738101009Watching XIV puppet the dead body of XI and jangle their clothes for fanservice feels kinda' gross to me, but I can't say precisely why. It's not new for FF to do this. Maybe I just really dislike XIV.
>>738103128i may be blind, but i hasn’t seen it during my 50h of playthrough with my malera
>>738102805You feel special for pressing 123?
>tried lalas, felt too silly>tried aura, too downs>tried hyur, too princessi don't even like miqote but they have the most straightforward adventure run and are relatively fuckin normal compared to the others
>>738103209Let's see Paul Allen's glam
>>738102805>devolved>removes 1-2-3>dragoon actually gets MORE positional focusI can't even tell if you're joking because I have actually seen faggots saying that consolidating your basic-ass combo to one button is "dumbing it down." The goyim need to be subjugated.
DRGchad status?
>>738102805I've played DRG as main job for the past few expansions, and I'm stoked over this.Never have I felt like the 1234 (or 1567) contributes a lot to my enjoyment of the gameplay.
>>738103270He spams that most threads since it was revealed
>>738103270It's the usual thread shitter obsessions and occasionally MMO purists. Those people would prefer to kill someone for "lowering the skill ceiling".
>>738103298enjoying their 90% damage reduction
>>738102805>not my heckin 12345167541 combo what about my heckin skill expression noooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>738103298>>738103342The sky is my domain.
>>738103250You have to be born as a lala to make the sillyness yours, otherwise it overwhelms you
>>738103250You're completely right, sadly. Miqote have good body proportions so all glam looks good on them, they have good emotes, good animations and they are very expressive.
>>738103298We get the turn-based jump/PvP limit break in PvE with a 90% damage reduction while in the air, lots of positionals, and seemingly we keep the Nidhogg stuff. I'm pleased with it.
>>738103454>and seemingly we keep the Nidhogg stuff.what's cool is that you get geirskogul (blue) from one positional, then nastrond (red) from the other, then the followup to hitting those positionals is the rear positional attack, which gives you wyrmwind thrust (red and blue)nothing particularly special, or anything, but I thought that was kind of cute
>>738103298Unironically putting WAR out of a job. PLD + DRG is going to be the meta.
>>738103454Niddhogg stuff is dumb it should be midgarsomr since hes the one in our butthole.
>>738103579You still drew on Nidhogg's eye, and Starcross is a Middy skill.
>>738102868>>738102870>>738103059>>738103238>>738103270>>738103308>>738103445
>>738103013same. having way more fun on a new char than I ever did in xiv. just unlocked ninja and blue mage. will prob main thief this go around.
I don't think it's fair to pin Danwtrail's incredibly shit story on Hiroi alone. I still think one of the main reasons everything is so boring, sanitized, and sterile is because of Kate and/or the "consulting" firms they contracted. They probably couldn't do anything cool because they immediately went>ackshually, that's problematic and offensive, so you cannot do thatI mean, where are the fucking luchadores?The fucking rubber bullets shit was incredibly infuriating. I haven't been that mad at a video game in agesGranted, a boring story is not the only issue Dawntrail has. Poochie is also a big pain point, which hurts because she was the first femhroth representative, and I really wanted her to be good. They fumbled the ball so hard with her, and the EN tranny VA was just the shit cherry on top.I know the story in this game has never really been like super "mature" or anything like that. But the story in Dantrail genuinely feels so "immature", infantile, and naive, in a way that nothing else in the game really compares. Poochie genuinely acts like a child who thinks the world is just friendship and rainbows, and everything can be solved with hugs, kisses, tacos, and the power of friendship. But in a good story, this kind of character would eventually get a reality check, that the world really is not quite that simple, and they would be forced to grow, to mature. But in this game, she is right. Poochie is right to believe that the power of friendship solves everything, because in Dawntrail, it does. "You don't need to fight, you just need to understand and love each other :)". Trust everyone unconditionally, unless they explicitly state "I'm evulz nyehehehe >:)". It is so fucking insulting. It feels like a story written for kids. It genuinely reads like a children's book.
>>738103298they are going to nerf the jump thing to something like 40-50% before release, it’s just too op
>>738103579It's dumb anyways from the angle that Nidhogg's dead after the events of Heavensward, his eyes smashed after the events of Stormblood and Shinryu's death, and there's no more power to draw off of there. Estinien has some weird relationship with Nidhogg where he's the "heritor" of his power and seems to identify himself as Nidhogg now in some capacity, but he's still not a dragon. We're technically drawing off of Estinien to come up with Nastrond (maybe) and Stardiver
>>738103623>black mage literally right now
>>738103605where da hraesvelgr power
>>738103659Ehhh this is from the same staffer that gives you Cover on a 20s cooldown now by tying it to Paladin's dash, and they saw an extremely positive crowd reaction from both Sky High being normally available and from when they announced the damage reduction. I think it's there to stay, and they've got less of a stick in their ass about raid balance to even be considering giving us that skill in the first place
>>738102416Hrothgar literally only have three types>Type A (male only)Huge tremendous bara loving furfaggot that likely has those grotesque TF2 musclechud shrines somewhere in their domicile>Type B (male only)One of like four clueless dudes left on the planet that somehow think Tony the Tiger isn't a furry and that Hrothgar are cool because ??? reasons>Type C (female only)muhhh muscle dommy mommy [population obliterated by wuk lamat and only sustained by people too contrarian to play femroe or used up all their fantasia to try and fix their awful face choice]
>>738103250To paint lalas as "too silly" is to spit on the legacy of Bilbo and Frodo BagginsEven Tolkien saw the potential in such a conceptIt applies most if you're a Plainsfolk
>>738103662WoL's job crystal belonged to Haldrath, who attuned to Nidhogg so strongly that he physically melded with the eye he held.
>>738103775Thordan slurped that out of his body in HW
>>738103708honestly, good points, we will have to see how it fares during 8.0
>>738103786Not the soul crystal, which contains memories of his abilities and who knows what else considering the Drachen chest armor was hidden inside it.
>>738103725Not a single straight male plays as a hrothgar. Its an entirely all gay male race.
playing alone again on a Saturday night...
>>738103786Fairly sure none of that can slurp that out of the job crystal. Just Haldrath's body.
>>738102416i remember going back to town to finish the lancer quest and seeing a roegadyn & hyur doing gay rp in the middle of the town, i was laughing my ass off the whole way.
>drop the off tank, bring 1 MT and a DRG, MT shirks DRG so they're always 2nd in threat>have DRG tank dual tankbusters or other tank mechanics with sky high whenever necessary
>>738102805My grandma says this looks great . She's thinking of getting into the game. This is great for new players!
Nidhogg's abilities are just too iconic at this point to take that away from Dragoons. What are you going to replace it with? A bunch of unnamed Midgardsormr-based attacks? I like my bro Middy, but it just doesn't run as deep. I'm not letting you take my Stardiver.
>>738103938It would be real neat if this were possible.I would expect bitchfits on the forums, though.
>>738103725Type A should also include that most of these fag don't really care about the game at all outside of hrothgars and their hrothgar communities, that's what they are here for, their furfaggotry and nothing else.
>>738101857>switch to male bun>get so many peeps and join a new fc and talk to people>after about a week the high wears off and I remember I'm actually anti-social and hate the attention>switch back to female
>>738103642Yeah. DT was absolutely fucked regardless of writer. That said, Hiroi is a 7/10 at his absolute best. He shouldn't have been headlining an expansion to begin with.
>>738102416It's crazy how similar this is to XI. But I would add there was a group of Tarutaru who were quiet nerds yet had edgy names that didn't fit them at all (Infernal, Sickerwoe, Onyxxx), Elvaan had alcoholics who only played half as much as everyone else and was idle half the time they actually played, Galka had stoners, Humes had wholesome boy scouts, and Mithra had elitists who only picked the race because they thought it was the strongest of the five and probably used mods to make their character look like something else and got angry if you reminded them of what they actually were.
>>738102930even with half the playerbase being belves or nelves, wow mogs xiv in player race diversity
And this is to go even further. This is... EVOLVED!
>>738104179I'd rather have actual gear than being able to play some ugly cow dude.
>>738103448DIG THROUGHT THE DITCHES AND BURN THROUGH THE WITCHES
>>738104084>Elvaan had alcoholics who only played half as much as everyone else and was idle half the time they actually playedReminds me of a dude I knew back in HW who I genuinely don't think ever logged out, he just sat afk in Idyllshire when he wasn't playing.
>>738103623You cropped the part when it shows XV on the tv
ffxiv has evolved, alright
>>738104298I wish I could turn off the glow on that spear or dye it. It's a cool model.
I wish there was some way to que into a trial at the min ilvl without needing to make a pf and hope you get lucky. I'm catching up now after dropping the game once I finished the turd that was DT's MSQ, and it sucks knowing all the trials and raids had any challenge in them sucked out by level sync.

>>738104298kyojiri sex
I don't even like most of the sets, why did I do this to myself. Fun dungeon though.
>>738103642anything short of another shadowbringers-tier story was going to be seen as a disappointment and see a drop in players, people were naturally tired or burnt out after the multi-expansion story climax of endwalker. evercold is getting so much traction and views partially because the changes are good, but also because people are getting hungry again for more XIV and looking for a reason to return and resub.
>>738104298thighs perfect
>>738104379Collection autism is a bitch.
just fuck my stupid hrothchud life
>>738104347i think lalawhores might be more your speed
>>738099409Dawntrail is the best expansion gameplay wise. Being a game where the story is one of the main draws, Wuk Lamat was a death sentence for image. Everyone will forever remember it as the Wuk Lamat expac, but it's actually the turning point in encounter design.
>>738104398>anything short of another shadowbringers-tier story was going to be seen as a disappointment and see a drop in playersyes, but even then Dawntrail is genuinely hot fucking garbage. It's not just below ShB. It's genuinely awful
>>738104439nice tail lmao
>>738103743>To paint lalas as "too silly" is to spit on the legacy of Bilbo and Frodo Bagginshobbits werent really silly, more like folksy-parochial and insular. salt of the earth but entirely too concerned with themselves as to put their entire way of life at risk for not looking at the state of the wider world.>>738104221they are all too similar (human with cat ear, human with bunny ear, etc) and similarly pretty. its boring to see groups of people and then witness them cattily deride people who dont fit the mold as trying to be special snowflakes
>>738104298she's not real. you need an honest lala
>>738104338My hope is that someday they make this a priority, especially now that Evolved mode is theoretically reducing the complexity of making such adjusting balance changes for older duties (since jobs have fewer buttons and are all "complete"). But given they didn't mention this at fanfest, I'm not hopeful this'll come any time soon.
>>738104481She's so erotic bros
>>738104425I had everything from meso terminal too but threw it all away mere days before the news that it could all be converted into outfit glamours
>>738104298Three of these in my party if I'm being entirely honest with you, friend.
>>738104241I SLAM IN THE BACK OF MY DRAGULA
>>738104567>before the news that it could all be converted into outfit glamourseverything from meso can be put in the armoire
>>738104481>Momodi gets this super sexy walk in 1.0>player lalas only get le silly wacky run/walk cyclewill we ever get customizable animations?
>>738099409Same.
How do you evolve warrior, it's already so simple as is.
>>738104728123 on one button. thats about it
>>738104728no need to cast the healIt’s always on nowYour 1-2-3 combo now does a cone AoE
>>738104665>will we ever get customizable animations?Yes.No.Maybe.They said stuff like this is actually more of a realistic want with the skill animation replacement system they're implementing.I don't expect salacious sashaying, though.
>>738104728>WAR actually gains buttons with evolved mode
>>738104728Based on what we saw, the non-DPS didn't change much besides button truncation
>>738103834Me tooWhat if we held hands at the Clyteum?
>>738104794I wish they would have given us more on how MT and OT differ.
>>738099409I figured out why my game wasn't running. It was the latest NVIDIA driver. rolled back and it works perfectly.
>complete fucking skill cuts and reworks to every class, again>tanks were changed entirely and now have 2 types, main tanks who use counter skills and keep aggro, and bitch tanks who reduce damage to allieswhy do they fellate paladin so hard?it was my main class but how the game keeps changing its just not the same anymore.imagine how this shit will play if I stop right now for 3 years and come back.everything will be completely fucking random.every class will have 3 stances and all rotations will be one button with a super move.
>>738104560Yeah, to be honest I'm not even sure how they'd go about it in a way that'd work. Even if you made it so there was an option to toggle it and get bonus tomestones, xp, etc. from a trial or raid as an incentive, I feel like people would rarely use it and the que times would be awful.
>>738104923>RX 7900 XT>never had a single graphics problem
>>7381049231070 bro....
>>738104923what card?I'm on the latest driver and I've had no issuesMaybe it was a fucked up install and needed a rollback?
>>7381049791070
>>738104946Welcome to MNK. My job has gone through at least 7 significant reworks since ARR.
>>738104987LOL!
>>738104946both types of tank keep aggro, just like both types of healer heal even though one is healier and the other is shieldy
>>738104987okay, well. I'm on a 5080, so I don't think I can help you there
>>738104987anon...
>>738104923They STILL haven't fixed that? Suppose there's nothing to fix because its the last update for the driver, isn't it.
>>738104893I expect it to be a nothingburger tbqh even though I'd be pretty happy if they were more strict roles.
>>738103143Here's the short of it>Viera on release only had female as a playable option (along with male-only Hrothgar)>a small contingent of players picked female Viera and played them as male for lore / RP reasons, essentially femboys in disguise because the lore was that male Viera were rare / hard-to-find. not to mention, there were specific voices and poses that would lend easily into being femboys and they used this to signal to one another>this created friction with the other Viera players who thought they were either eggs (troons in the making) or stealing valor when really they just liked the idea of Viera twinks>as a result a lot of Viera players, mostly biofem players and the MtF troons, started publicly humiliating and making fun of them and telling them to fantasia back to their old race they played before and that male Viera would never be a thing and they're in denial>when male Viera did finally release, many of these femboys made it very explicit that their clubs would never have women in their FCs / groups because of how poorly they were treated>they're also at war with the groom squad male Vieras who are almost always former Au Ra players
femhroth default dance is so shitI miss the laladance
>>738099409It's going to suck like the other 7 attempts.
big fish makes me want to big fucking kms
>>738105097So this is XIV’s three kingdoms huh
>>738105187this nigga wasting his time fishing
>>738104951They just have to force it on people. You're talking about min ilevel enforcement, I'm talking about a theoretical complete rework of how scaling works at lower levels so that there's NO other option than to have to do fights at (as close as possible to) how they were on week 1.At some point, I just pray they realize:1. This is a final fantasy game before it's an MMO2. All old content being so trivial makes it a bad final fantasy game, at least from a gameplay POV, until you reach level cap which is a dogshit experience for new players (and experienced players who have to play with the new players that never had to struggle with anything in their ~200-300 hours to get here)3. Getting better gear/increasing item level is inconsequential until you reach level cap, it's a meaningless experience to just buy shit with poetics. So just rework how ilvl works at lower levels so you can fine-tune old content, fuck it4. Not only difficulty is a problem, but speed. Thordan, supposed to be an epic final boss, dies in 3 minutes and does no damage even with his ultimate move. Tons of other fights skip entire cool mechanics, new players who didn't play on patch/week 1 will NEVER SEE
I'm a Lalafell, Yes I know shocking, it's true...
I haven't played since 2022, how standalone does the dawntrail stuff seem? I heard it was shit and would rather just speedread all that shit. New expansion seems cool, maybe it'll make Sam fun again. I miss Kaiten so fucking much.
>>738105217as opposed to what, wasting my time farming DT ex trials? wasting my time doing the raid tier through PF?
>>738105097I love XIV so much, shit like this is just so funny and bonkers. I choose to believe this is all true, thanks anon! But I totally respect fellow fags for not wanting to have any foids in their groups, that's the only way to build a somewhat stable gaming community these days.
I wonder if evolved mode will make it easier to add more than 2 jobs in the future
>>738105267Just wait for evercold and buy a story skip
>>738104946>all the insecure WARcucks pissing and shitting themselves over this because they think that not being a main tank means they arent the main character

>>738105297You’ll be happy if they keep adding jobs after evercold

>>738105267We don't need more lalatroons.
>>738105380>Did those tank items drop very little for you too?I finished the tank set in like 3 hours. The healer hat alone took me an entire day though.

>>738105470must be the royal welalas can have versatile roles in any party
>>738105297Big doubt. What I do wish is that evolved jobs would give them an excuse to revisit branching jobs.

>>738105631god, i wish hyur women were real
Your WoL kept them warm in his pouch, just for Zero
>>738105535>>738105563>>738105591>t. lalatroons
I haven't played in over a year. Have any of the new additions in dawntrail been good for leveling? I'm wondering how people will be leveling the new jobs on day 1 of evercold. Old school fate grinding? Trusts?
>>738105679
>>738105676and Golbez :^)
>>738105521>woooooo duuuude knight so cool!!!!
>>738105603I doubt they'll ever revisit branching jobs since Scholar and Summoner turned out to be such a headache, and for Summoner it was a heavy roadblock on what they could do for weaponry or unique ideas in that regard
>>738105697Still the same old. Leveling crafting with Cosmic Explorations is a lot better than previous iterations since they provide you with the mats, so its a lot cheaper.
>>738105697There's a new deep dungeon and variant dungeon that give xp. DD is faster but requires level 91 to enter. The variant has better rewards and starts at 90.
>>738105697dungeons, pilgrim's traverse or merchant's tale
>>738105585Lookin good, whats that body piece.
>>738105748Doesn't help that they never really found a satisfactory way to explain that you were leveling two jobs at once to newbies while also making you farm two sets of gears and also doing your job quests separately.
>>738105797FFXI Paladin chest from the newest alliance raid
>>738105797NTA but it's the new Alliance Raid armor piece. I would assume the Fending ver. But it could also be Maiming. either of the two (I imagine they dye differently).
>>738105679How original
I am a simple manI see cool and grounded knight's armor glam, I kneel
XI had some slick fucking fits how come they don’t do that in XIV
Bah, it sucks that the dungeon gear is not dyeable. It looks good.
>>738105908they're called artifact armor, sweaty
>>738105521They hate how little it takes for us to be happy.
>>738105904Speaking of knight armorWhen are we getting Golbez and Exdeath glams?
>>738105919Wait a year or two for the crafted version.
>>738105919The yuyuwhatisit armor is the one that pisses me off specifically.
>really excited about housing furnishing limit upgrade>get hit with massive creative block and cant even think of what to do with the new slotsI respect housing designers more than any gold parser even if they both cheat
>>738105945>Exdeath Heavensward
>>738105945I want Zero's sword, her shield isn't unique but her sword is
I just want to say, I bought a basic low level axe for my WAR as glam because I hate the retarded giant anime shit this game has. The basic axe looks so good.
>>738105950Yeah, probably for Evercold.>>738105962That armor was good as well. The only patch dungeon gear I didn't care for was the 7.3 stuff (other than 7.2, but I don't count that because it wasn't new).
people complaining about the EVA crossover clearly don't remember thisNow this was a "What the fuck?" crossover
evolvedmore like devolved into wow
>>738105927Im not talking about just artifacts, even regular armor looks really cool
>>738104946Should just be a stance that changes your skills instead of forcing jobs into this meta.They talk about wanting to prioritize character customization but then force this on tanks in the same presentation.I don't play tanks and have no actual stake in the conversation
>>738106052Fall Guys is and will probably always be the worst crossover in every way.And I didn't even hate the game modes.
>>738106052Hope it comes back in the next few months. I'm like 20~ wins off the title.
>>738106052Fall Guys collab being a 3 patch Alliance Raid story would've been kino.

>>738106137The Producer and Director clearly
>>738106137yoko taro
It would be cool if this skill customization allows you to kind of visually get out of your current job boundaries. Stuff like more Berserker animations for WAR and maybe a more neutral swordsman type look for DRK.
>>738105658>generic knight slaughters the diversity squad 1 v 3This shit was so fucking kino the first time I saw it, then I learned it was ESO and immediately lost interest
>>738106363I'd shit my pants if we got something like alternative idle stances, like sharing the spear-up/axe-down DRG and WAR idles with Roegadyn, or getting Regula's Cloud greatsword stance for DRK, or Gaius's gunblade stance as a Seifer reference for GNB
>>738099409>XIV has burned me way too many times.You deserve it if you didn't learn your lesson the first time.
>>738106412They already showed one on the new battlepass screen but nobody noticed it.

>>738106498So that you could find the key and reunite the worlds. Not joking, that's why.
>>738106498After his death he knew the ascians plans falling apart was only a matter of time, he passed the torch and Elidibus was only delaying the inevitable
>>738106498Follow up on Ancients being powerful enough they can resist death for a little while (arguably precedent for this in Midgardsormr being so powerful he can completely ignore his own death and, with enough time, restore his corporeal body)Elidibus is running on auto-pilot and has been for a very long time, Emet is helping you shut the lights off because nobody's homeFan-service
>>738106498He wanted to put his friend Elidibus to rest.
>>738106498The fight with Hades at the Dying Gasp was actually one of principles. He was wanting you to prove that you had the fortitude and conviction to be a worthy steward of the star and successor to the Ancients. He already believed that in his heart, even if he didn't want to admit it and had been through enough pain that he refused the premise. He knew that if you beat him that Elidibus would try to troll you to death, so he deliberately left you the means to survive that because he wanted you to win after proving yourself worthy againsthim.Similarly, he wanted to let go of his struggle after fighting for so long about it, and he wanted the same for Elidibus (probably even more than himself).

>>738106897yeah thats what i mean the more i stare at her somethings off>>738106916i mean color/shading makes alot of difference, something feels "off" to me compared to usual face 3, but i also dont have side by side so maybe im just imagining shit
>>738105238Yeah, what made me think of it was doing brute bomber in a roulette, skipping half the fight, and remembering how you basically will never see Nald'Thal cutscene because you finish the fight 30% faster than on release. They know it's a problem because they had to address it with Endsinger(Which I don't know if they successfully did or not.)
>try pvp after not trying it since EW>if your team falls back for a millisecond without warning, an entire enemy team gank squad WILL rape you in a second
>>738106793yes you cant get that look with a normal fishra
>>738107028I chalk it up to her constantly having that :( look.
>>738107054>They know it's a problem because they had to address it with EndsingerI don't remember seeing that in patch notes, but I do remember at a certain point no longer skipping basically the entire final phase. So it worked. Now if only they'd direct that effort towards all duties, and especially in the amount of damage they deal to YOU so playing healer/tank isn't the most boring shit in existance
ive been thinking about starting from ground zero as a new character, havent played since dawntrail release, what would be the best job/role if i prinarily just want to meet people/make friends/potential romanceand also how would people feel if i offered to draw their character for fun as a gift?
>>738106916>Here are a handful of some of the features we're looking to add.
>>738106793I think the main unique thing about her face is how her scales and horns are a different color instead of the usual white or black.
>>738103128Peloton on a male aura is the funniest shit ever. Makes me chuckle every time I see it.
>>738107054the scions are allowed to finish their spiel now. unlike hades who i haven't seen cast black cauldron in years

>>738107272Great argument son.
>>738107293Oh, the i90 Vintage AF is also rewarded to those doing the ARR job quests now too. As does the HW Centurio Seals ones.
They really need to graphically update more gear.
>>738107384I would rather they make new gear than update old shit.
>>738107272This game has an amazing track record for following through on claims anon-doko, it's hardly WoW where they've committed false advertising in the past like an expansion's box art having a feature that wasn't ever implemented

>>738107560He's still right.
he's gonna be back, right?
>>738107571Gear you wear for your jobs is still job locked, but you can glamor whatever you want over it. So you can't wear tank armor as a dps, but you can glamor tank armor over your dps armor.
>This game has an amazing track record for following through on claims

>>738107571Basically, yeah. You got it, you can wear it. My lv94 Paladin can apparently even glam lv100 gear my Viper got ahead of the curve, even. Want White Mage glams on a Dark Knight? Knock yourself out. Samurai for the Ninja? Sure. Scholar's little booties on the Dancer? Viola.
Uh oh, he's entering his greentexting something that triggered him with an ebin smarmy reaction image phase.

>>738107631>can heal people from the brink of death>can't heal some poor fucker's spineThey did my boy dirty.
>>738107761I'll give FFXIV that it's very careful to say healing magic isn't actually healing by supernatural means so much as it's hyper-accelerating the body's healing response, so it can't cure you of diabetes or repair your crushed spine but it can still get you back up from getting flattened like a pancake
>>738107761i think they reasoned it as stemming people's natural regeneration, so rezzing someone from being blown up or planet dropped and shit is really just waking up an unconscious but very much alive person. so when someone is flat out crippled, the body can't exactly create or fix something that's inherently broken for it.

>>738107138It was one of the EW patches after people kept saying how lame it felt that the 'final boss' of the ascian saga could be made into a joke and have a phase skipped. But yeah, there shouldn't be any fight where a dps can just take a hit they shouldn't and have it not really matter.
>>738101009I hate those stupid tiaras so fucking much man they just keep shoving them everywhere because the half finished races from fucking 2 expacs ago were so badly made so instead they just skip making any helmets entirely and the only hats we do get are ugly vile modernslop holy shit I cannot overstate how much how much it makes me seethe

>>738103213At the very least it feels like the devs gave a shit. There's a lot of little references and tidbits in there only someone that either played XI or had an ear close to someone that did would probably have figured to catch. It's still not "good" as a crossover, literally ELECTROPE DOES ANYTHING manifest for no big payoff but Shantotto, but you get the feeling that like the Ivalice raids someone would seriously be sucking more XI dick right now if they could. Granted, XIV owes so, so, SO much to XI that it's only fitting I guess.

Day one and two for the Extreme on NA at least there were three different raidplans around, two of which were variants of the first one, all having slightly different ways of doing intermission that all felt like they phrased the same thing to me in all cases (some variant of snake prio). Now our lord and savior Hector put out his video and it was interesting to see how almost immediately PF went half and half to just saying "Hector" or "raidplan". I normally just do Extremes with my static but due to various absences I've had to be in the PF ecosystem for this one. I expect Hector to win out as usual but even his guide mostly just... Rephrases the intermission again to STILL be the same snake prio just putting different groups at different parts of the prio.Also for some reason he settled on CW-CW for the chasers and not CW-CCW which feels like it would be simpler to me.

>>738109298It has a pixiv filename.
It's not really surprising when healer design actively punishes you for being good at healing, so most people (like me) over time just give up with the role and play something else, leaving a good proportion of concurrent healer players to be dedicated mains (who tend to just be shit at the role) and or newer players. Oh, and regen healers have always been carried by shield healers since that role has both shields, more mitigations and almost near-on par pure healing power so it only confounds the problem.I played healer for the EX and I quickly swapped off because the mixture of the role being fucking boring (11111 rotation, little to heal) and stressful (it's hard to recover, healers get lumped with mechs, down to you to clean up) just makes it unenjoyable. I play dps and I'm just vibing lol
I love ff14 girls
>>738109976I found myself just losing patience. With people and the skills themselves. I can pinpoint exactly when my enthusiasm for the role died and it was the Nier raid with the three mech bosses that separated the the alliances. I was actively seething and just not having fun at all when usually Day 1's are really fun for me because of all the chaos and death.

Basically this "Dao" is a concept of one's sword path like the heartless sword, killing sword, formless sword (Which would be my characters lore wise) and so on that supplement your sword technique with extra power kind of like the mind eye of Pictomancer or how Ninja uses heaven, earth, and man with their mudras in a sense. They have slightly different effects on your sword striking depending on the dao (This is more passive and uncontrollable). Using the Dao as a guide you can also start making your own swordplay.Kit - Since it's a mirror this is related to Getsu and one's birth of their new path.

>>738109404look at em, precious lil blade master
>>738110417Well the outfit set is already in the game assets as of this past update, they just didn't put it on the store immediately like Queen Sphene's stuff

>>738110310your wife is a slut
>>738110216may Hades forgive me...
>>738100774>nowWoL having retard strength wasn't ever hidden from you. When you face Garuda, Ifrit and Titan they all go "what the fuck this was supposed to kill how are you still standing" and it's only level 20 or whatever. over the course of the quests you and other characters talk about how you keep eating hits like a motherfucker but somehow only gets knocked out at worst instead of becoming smeared lasagna on the floor. in Heavensward Thordan loses his shit because he literally Ultimate End's you and screeches like a baby when he sees you standing after he goes all out. Keep in mind all primals are at least demigod levels of power and they can level mountains and shit so when you solo eat an akh morn blast and is perfectly pristine except you're dizzy on the floor Nidhogg has a reason to get worried.Even by the time Calyx blasts you with a bolt from ramuh or whatever that weak shit was you've already deep throated Wicked Thunder's proton cannon for minutes in his own fucking city so that was a massive beginner move on his part.
how many buttons will evolved picto have?
>>738110417I think the Beatrix set is different because it's more like the Cloud/Squall/Zidane/Tidus/Yuna/etc sets where it was made specifically for player characters to wear. Whereas the XIV NPC gear was originally made as one thing baked into the NPCs' models, and throwing it onto the store as just 1 or 2 items was an afterthought.
>>738110628PCT and SMN are probably as evolved as they can get
I was genuinely upset Sphene wasn't going to become a Scion and travel with us.I just wanna know who it is at SE who hates the idea of us having a qt middie in the Scions.Like after killing Minfilia, benching Lyse, leaving Ryne on the 1st, now with Sphene there's clearly an anti-middie agenda going on.
>>738109297It's good for team morale.
>>738110404I'm gonna sex myself to this lala now that she's so thick and can hoard my cum forever.
>>738110525If there's one thing, ONE thing that I find endearing about Dawntrail, it's the "what the absolute fuck" reactions to WoL. No one can prep for us, no villain truly knows or understands us, and even Calyx with all his data gathering had the wrong assessments and only had a seemingly foolproof plan to bail him out, which still failed for other reasons. It's not that it has to state we're a walking demigod among mortals for any of it, we're just, y'know, a person that's experienced more than any single force in Tural or Alexandria, period. Not dicksucking us off constantly in the usual sense (they had Wuk for that), but not pushing it too heavyhandedly. The rest of the shit sucked ass until it picks up later in the patch cycles, but I just thought it was neat.Now it sounds like we're back to being the most important person in the universe and having to unfuck everything again.
>>738110468all women are whores thoughever

Did the AR tonight. I find it funny people agree on not instapulling the last boss because of the cutscene but don't care about people reading the notes.The last boss was interesting until the double-headed dumbo fused with it, then it became boring. I need to find a community to do ARs blind, the first group (I couldn't stick with, had an IRL prio) wiped to the 2nd boss and I think it would've been a great discovery time for the last boss. The second group had the overwhelming majority already knowing everything already.Anyway, I'm not really looking forward to doing it every week for the twines. The cutscene feels quite long (even if it seems shorter than the Twelves final boss cutscene which takes 3 years to end).
istg this is a dark souls reference
>>738110856get out of here you nerd
>>738104298I miss Tera and elins.
>>738105585whats the legs and shoes?
>>738110687because Sphene is inexperienced and not really competent enough to be a scion. she just got up from being a damsel in distress frozen in ice for 400 years and picked up a book or something to cast spells. she's hyper naive as well, I can imagine her getting benched because she accidentaly got knocked up and dumped into the city leader jail anyways.everyone in the scions is either competent and experienced or is autistic.
Sphene is a lalafell mother, guardian of lalafells
Off topic, but this new congestion system is so fucking stupid man. You are just encouraging off worlders to never log off and stay logged in to avoid having to get this error message. The worst part is that it doesn't even seem to work properly. I've been able to brute force it with enough attempts or just constantly swapping world servers.
>>738110679not really. hammer will now be one button, same for mog ball/motif and so on.
>>738110828>I find it funny people agree on not instapulling the last boss because of the cutscene but don't care about people reading the notes.I really don't understand why this is still a thing. People even wait in Crystal Tower. It's asinine, because you're wasting like 2-5 minutes of 23 player's time every single Alliance Raid, just so that one (1) person can watch a cutscene... that they can still watch regardless of whether or not people pulled the boss. The new player should be able to watch the cutscene and feel like they are able to watch the cutscene, but *I* also shouldn't have to forfeit 2 minutes of my life every single Alliance Raid I do, especially because you never do an Alliance Raid just one time, especially not Crystal Tower.
Farmed Cloud of Darkness after them adding unsync'd item level. It's roughly the same, but it gives a ton more leeway on a lot more mechanically: You will still wipe if people don't know what they're doing, but the DPS check does not exist anymore and there's a lot more freedom with towers going off.Overall, I feel like it's far heathier from a farming standpoint or just content in general. I expect the items to drop in price but not significantly drop.
>>738111067Is PF active or is it purely discord content now?
hype absolutely brought a ton of people back. i usually track this based on novice network numbers, and my congested server is at about triple the number of sprouts at any given time compared to a few weeks ago, so it's not new people
quite a chill extreme, but the final phase is a bit iffy. those orbs are pretty hard to check before they go off imo
whats the coolest housing exterior for my gridania house
>>738110891Why does it matter, we fix everything anyways.
>>738111051gives me time to go check other shit real quick, not a big deal if you're already here for the AR time investment
>>738111319This is not a personal, individual issue. Think about how many times you've done Alliance Raids though. That's ~2 minutes or more of >20 people's lives wasted every time. All for something that the sprout can be watching anyway without the group needing to cater to them.
>>738110870Hey that was me, John Darksoul, when I was going through the capital
>>738110943What does the new congestion thingy do?I'm an AetherGAWD so I don't need to world travel
>>738111248it matters because the scions are already tard wrangling you. Sphene is a normal human being, not an abomination of a murder hobo like you so her growth in the scions would take the normal years long training routine and adventuring with C teams and years of study to reach the scions' level
>>738111125dt was so bad lol. all they had to do was course correct away from hiroi and kate slop
Is the Demiatma drop rate as awful as it feels? I'm almost max level in OC, but I'm still quite far from having 3 of each.
>>738111554Careful, you'll have redditors scolding you telling you you're being a chudcel for rightfully calling Dawntrail and Wuk Lmao shit
>>738111586OC ones only drop from certain areasYou're better off doing that step outside
>>738111586It is terrible yes. I even grinded FATEs outside of OC for like 3 hours and never got a drop. I think I had like 150 CEs completed of the 500 needed for the achievement by the time I got them all.
>>738111586It's a slog whether you're doing it in OC or not yeah, and OC has a higher drop rate to compensate for no control over which demiatma you have access to at a given moment vs. doing it in Dawntrail FATEs
>>738111467>>738110891Dude. Come on. If she's good enough for a Trust then there's no reason she can't join us for an expac. I love the twins to pieces but I'd happily see them benched for some fresh meat.
>>738111586Yeah. OC droprate is like 20% and fates are 5%. Generally you want to do OC until you've got most of them and then fates when you're down to needing a few specific ones.
>>738111125I dunno, man. My server even back in Asmongold days was always kinda dead compared to other worlds, and even before the fanfest I started having so many people on my world that I can't load everyone in Limsa or even during Slice is Right anymore. The meme chart keeps showing that number is going down, but at least on my world number seems to always have been going up.
>>738111804Meme chart is doing something or not doing something that seems to suggest it's becoming worthless as even an inaccurate measurement, I'm not sure why the numbers on LB don't seem to add up with general game activity
>>738111867>I'm not sure why the numbers on LB don't seem to add up with general game activityThe largest dropoff on the meme chart occurred immediately after SE gave the ability to private your Lodestone, and this was during the height of the stalker plugin scare, so more people were incentivized to private it than normal. Additionally, it seems to be specifically Lodestone *achievements*, and there are people who have achievements hidden even if their Lodestone is public. And apparently ever since then new characters have their achievements hidden by default, though I have not confirmed this myself.
It's finally over, what a terrible grindWas somewhere around the 30-40 run range before I finished this set I want to use it for something but Idk what yet, Reaper or Viper probably>>738111752I love the Sphener but she was never going to be Scion material and she doesn't have any narrative motivations to come with usHer duty is to her people, I hope this isn't the last of her we see tho
>>738111978now sell it to a vendor and farm it again
>>738111125It was really night and day, explosion of returners and sprouts doing gates in the gold saucer after that fanfest.
>>738111978If that one event was anything to go by they're not afraid to have her visit in incognito at least. I hope DT feedback wasn't utterly drowned out by "AAAA FUCK IT IT'S ALL RETARDED" so the few good things of the story get buried.
>>738103642Hiroi's prior writing paints him as having daddy and mommy issues a mile wide and also a less exceptional writing quality than Ishikawa's emotional stuff or Maehiro's politics and grand narratives. Dawntrail is clearly overwhelmingly about familial connections but they fumbled severely even making that a connection for peple. It should not have been, as that's a commonality every single person will experience or has experienced. Frankly given Ishikawa's pathos writing if Wuk also didn't get sandbagged with a kentucky hack VA then she'd have been able to deliver on some emotional tour de force. Frankly I think a fundamental issue for what DT tried to cater to is the small Stephen Universe part of the fandom. Cunts who just want happy happy fee fees and quickly resolved teen-rated instead of tragedy and drama. Because Ishikawa made the 1-50 alchemist quest great and bittersweet and about very personal loss. >>738111946Most people are not going to be assed to log into their lodestone to change settings. Prior to this horseshit your ilk tried to pass off the high number as unnaturally due to covid (with the lockdowns apparently extending into 2022. Nobody buys the spin doctoring when there was such an organic and universal experience of the negativity of 7.0 and 7.1. You're trying to deny the sky is blue. If you want to enforce your artificial opinions as gospel go book a reddit moderator job, I hear they have really great pay - there's a lot of zeros apparently.>>738111125There's hope in the game again, more tangible than just the good progress on patches.
>>738110891>everyone in the scions is either competent and experienced or is autistic.alisaie is incompetent and retarded.
>>738112131>Prior to this horseshit your ilk tried to pass off the high number as unnaturally due to covid...This is unusually aggressive and accusatory about a discrepancy between in-game activity (Novice Network headcounts, queue times, Gold Saucer activity, etc.) and a user driven census
Can I use XIVcombo now and not have it be considered cheating?
>>7381122138.0 is about to render XIVCombo completely and utterly pointless
>>738112131>your ilkHoly fuck, kill yourself schizo. I stopped reading here. I'm simply stating the truth. Everything I said is the absolute truth, except the part about new players having their achievements privated by default, which is something I've read here but have not confirmed myself. It is undeniable that the largest dropoff occurred after SE introduced the ability to private your Lodestone. It is undeniable that this happened during the stalker plugin thing, so more people might have been inclined to private their Lodestone than normal. These are both undeniable truths. That said, I do not personally believe that 100% of the dropoff is due to this, though I do believe a non-zero amount of the dropoff is due to this.
>>738112006>doing gates in the gold saucer after that fanfestTo be fair, the mogtome event was still going on for a couple days then and gates are the lowest effort way to farm those.
>>738111459Starting this patch, during prime time it blocks entry from travelers even if they've already transferred beforehand. You can get around it by doing a world transfer from the login screen, but it's pretty annoying because the congestion block changes on the fly so sometimes it takes multiple tries.Seems to be fine now, it was more of a hassle during day 1-2 of the patch.
>>738112263>8.0 is about to render XIVCombo completely and utterly pointlessI don't think that's true at all. I'm sure that there will still be a "correct" rotation and that a plugin will be developed to turn the correct rotation into one button. Though, with DRG for example, I wonder how important hitting the positionals will be. If hitting positionals is extremely important, a one button rotation plugin might be detrimental.
>>738112345I'm betting positionals are gonna matter pretty hard, all the moreso if a job has fewer than average buttons
>>738112297I know, but the population quadrupled in that place. I haven't seen that many people since DTs launch.
population tripled in my FC, it went from 1 to 3
>>738112384That's gonna be extremely annoying for everyone if they matter a lot. Melees are already retards and will get people killed just to hit a positional. It doesn't need to be any more like that than it already is.
>>738112270>It is undeniable that this happened during the stalker plugin thingPeople genuinely blew that shit out of proportion, to be honest
>>738112297Plus, they seemed to have tweaked the gates to basically ONLY be the Air Force one. You very rarely had to deal with leap of faith, which was the one that was almost constantly on repeat in last moogle tomestone events.
>>738112478That's fine. It was still in the Live Letter(s) and might even have been a Lodestone post and is something that all the grifters were talking about in their YouTube videos.
>>738112467Melees deserve all the suffering they receive in their miserable lives, speaking as primarily a melee player>>738112478A little bit of it being silly SE had that info out in the open, a big bit of it being completely ridiculous one guy was hoarding that information, a little bit of overreaction but understandably so considering the possible privacy violation
>>738112485They always do that when they add something new.
>>738112263That's my point. XIVCombo was cheating but now its being built into every job, so I don't know if the remaining months of it's relevance should be considered cheating anymore.
>>738112201On one side we have:>Informal polling>Commentary across every single social media outlet>Gaming Journalist reviews>Anecdotal experience>Square Enix revenue>Square enix attempts at rapidly trying to improve the situation and emphasizing the realm re-reborn element of 8.0.Saying the game did poorly.The other side has purely anecdotal experience and attempts to invalidate the only metrics we have while offering no other tangible alternative but "trust me bro" and ridiculous drivel (oh no, that's going to trigger >>738112270 because it's an unfamiliar word!) of: 1) Players leaving gave two shits about a stalking app when the only people impacted by stalkers are terminally online gposers/roleplayers who won't unsub from the game to begin with2) Players will not be assed to go into the lodestone unless they use it to install mare or similar discord matchmaking shit for raiding that requires you put that hash line in your comments.For the rest the lodestone is something you log into to reach the mogstation to pay your subscription or cancel it or access the store. Nobody cares about the damn stalking shit but twitter. Also if we're discussing apps, how about those even worse numbers the stalking app found?Also it's funny to invoke the stalking app when it reported apocalyptic numbers compared to Bancho. >>738112270>I'm simply stating the truth. Everything I said is the absolute truth,Your schizophrenia is not the truth. Same as accusing people hating Dawntrail of being cultists for some eceleb faggot, you're accusing me of your own condition.Thankfully Endcold is doing everything Dawntrail didn't, so the numbers will go up as the experience improves.
