Our FC of 9 years destroyed itself because the two guys running it couldn't handle everyone shitting on Wuk. It wasn't even a bit or like concerted. It was just that every few hours/days someone would pop in during the MSQ and just go "man this character fucking sucks". And the one guy in charge just fucking lost his mind and convinced himself that we were doing it on purpose, that we were scheduling people to come in in sequence to complain about Wuk. The other guy just accused everyone of being transphobic (even if you were playing in jp voices, you only hated Wuk for being trans)

I really wish i recorded the final call when he snapped and fucking tried to like put the fc on trial for crimes and conspiracy against Wuk Lamat and himself.

He's going to say it didn't happen.

>>738544515
I haven't touched the side content since I was just trying to get current on the MSQ. I guess I could take a break and do those.
I thought it was the case that dungeons guaranteed a gear drop of your role at the end. I guess I was mistaken?

Bro, just fucking but them off the MB at this point.
>>
>>738544585
I think patch dungeons are a little more finicky.
I find it hard to advise you because I'm constantly swimming in mathematics to the point that I just buy those reagents from the vendor and sell them for gil just to avoid overcapping.
But I accrue that over time just doing what I do normally, so I wouldn't know a rapid method to get them (other than hunt trains, but... hunt trains).

I'm glad that argument never really got much traction, even on R*ddit and Twitter people largely reject it.

Yea in the past I never had issues. This is the 1st time I took a big break and am just trying to catch up on MSQ. But I guess they want you to engage in other stuff instead of just rushing it.
>>
>>738543525
It was failure at the goal of making an expansion pack people liked. Yoshi Pee basically proved he's needed to make the game any good because he was busy working on FF16 and that's what they did without him.

KEK I know exactly the mentality. Discord/ reddit mod mentality. Goes completely to their head the slightest bit of power over people and they act like complete fucking dictators.
Had the same happen to the FC I was in, it was for Brits only, you had to even pass a test to get in and prove you were British and for a time I was really happy with being in, until Dawntrail and the MSQ really was a shit.
People did complain but the little clique around the top of the FC were super all in sunk cost fallacy on how great Wuk and Dawntrail was, so they bitched out anyone who spoke up so people just quietly quit.
We'd got almost every day someone posting that they were taking a break and needed to focus on personal stuff and they just would be gone and for the most part I've not seen them back. Far more just left without saying a single thing.
Dawntrail was a complete FC breaker.

>>738543525
No, it was pretty good. Very comfy. The sections without Wuk though, honestly worst part of the expansion. Not bad, just not as interesting.
>>
Boss fights in Yawntrail are objectively superior to boss fights in Sleepwalker, so for a casual story player it was probably pretty bad but I was able to get enjoyment out of it like Stormblood. These expansions where the story sucks reminds me that the gameplay can at least be serviceable if they try. When the story is good and they know it those battle designers go on fuckin autopilot.

Neither of them can, that shit is their entire life.

The paranoid guy's entire life is tied up in that FC. He's still running it by himself but by now it's probably 99% different people. He ran everyone else out.

The guy who accused us of just being transphobes ran off to make his own LGBTQQGRASS community that blew up in his face after a couple months, something to do with a fight over the house they bought and turned into a gays only whore house on balmung.

It killed the already shitty MMO. Now it barely has 700k total players. It fell far below the poor WoW numbers and that MMO is so far past its prime and complete crap currently too.
>Why was it a failure
It opened the brandcucks eyes, that the story they shilles was always a crap MMO story style novel stretched over 200h. They lost the only lifeline FF had that they could praise as good. The combat was already was gimped garbage ever since Stormblood. So the story was all they could elevate cuz most ppl even playing the MMO just skip it. Now all the people that are left are troon/furry erpers just like Second life.

Was gonna make a thread but I saw this.

Ive been catching up on the post DT msq for 8.0 and I hate this little fucking shit and the story in these patches is so fucking bad, its so much worse than dawntrail itself. Just an awful fucking retread that undermines everything at every turn and wont let anything progress in anyway. Nobody dies, everyone comes back, everything you do gets undone. There's no stakes, no satisfaction to be had. Nothing. Its dreadful.

Im on 7.4 does it get better? Fuck, atleast the fights are still good.

They oddly tried to ignore why people liked Bozja and what made it work in favor of a more Eureka-like experience but with Bozja's pace

none of what halibut and calyx matters because 8.0 will retcon everything for whatever they plotted in writers camp.

anything 7.5--.55 will be padding retconned. Which is why the wol doesnt take it seriously with all their facial expressions.

I think he could've been better if they have spent any time at all building him up. Kind of like EW-Golbez, really. For some reason, late EW early DT really suffered from "we're gonna do a lot of padding, but we'll spend none of it meaningfully to, for example, build up our antagonists"

Meteion
1. had no goals, because she wasn't a villain in the traditional 'she came to her own conclusion' sense, but her views can be shaped by the dynamis in her vicinity
2. The Meteia/Endsinger wanted to end all life because it was a meaningless blight on the purity of the cosmos and the path to death would only be paved with sorrow and strife. She was basically a giga doomer. That's nothing like Calyx.
>>
>>738546440
No wonder you forgive this character when you misunderstand the ascians so badly.
The rejoinings were a means to a goal, the revival of their race, through sacrifice to zodiark. But it turns out the rejoinings were going to ultimately kill everything and the unsundered had no clue. Emet Selch said he could just wait for WoL to die of old age but he couldn't, was he bluffing?

This. I can't stand how gullible this community is. The game is in a shit state for years and years, and then comes YoShitPiss and announces things that should already be in the game ages ago, and everyone claps...

Cross-world PF is something that was needed together with the data center travel update, before all NA data-centers that weren't Aether were left all but abandoned, people waking up at 4AM just to park their characters in Aether. And you can be sure that the netcode will be the same laggy mess that everyone outside of Japan needs to use fucking third party tools to play as intended or clip GCDs even on single weaves.

And then comes this eVoLvEd, which is... The same fuckig GCD and oGCD rotation gameplay but with less buttons. The only interesting thing that they showed was the DRG jump, the other jobs were the same fucking nothing burger, and i bet that the others will be too.

Remember when all headgear pieces in ARR and HW had adjustments for Mi'Qote and Elezens? Remember when chest pieces instead of clipping your tail on Mi'Qote actually had tail holes? Yeah, from ShB onwards they just delete your ears on headpieces and sometimes even delete your fucking tail on chests and call it a day.

Meanwhile the playerbase is clapping and shouting "YoShitPiss! YoShitPiss! YoShitPiss!" Pathetic. This guy was indeed good at the start, nowadays he's just a PR talk liar.

>But it turns out the rejoinings were going to ultimately kill everything and the unsundered had no clue.
No they wouldn't, only a natural rejoining hits the reset button. Doing the Ascian method avoids the problem, which is why Halmarut is trying to continue it.

Everybody is repeating the same buzzwords about Evercold. I'm sure you've heard lots of people say something to the effect of "they're taking risks, that's what I want". Hey, remember when everybody was parroting the "Dawntrail is the biggest expansion ever" and "Dawntrail will have the most content ever"? How did that work out? The FFXIV playerbase are the most niggercattle of goyim and I hate it so much. They are unwilling or unable to conceptualise their own thoughts so they have some fucking faggot bitch cOnTeNt CrEaToR do it for them. Seeing the Evercold reveal really opened my eyes. The game is going in a mobile-first direction, but the goyim don't see it. The goyim think Evolved Combat is bringing job identity back, but the reality is its laying the foundation for autobattling. The goyim choose to ignore Yoshi-P mentioning a new autowalk feature to "help with questing". Evercold is finally going to kill the game, and the stupid fucking goyim who clapped and cheered like retarded monkeys deserve to die of hantavirus.

Of course, it gives them a ton of room to iterate now but I don't think it's fully set in for people how long it's gonna take to feel like the Square devs will do anything with it.

>Free Trial account characters have all their levels capped below the maximum possible in-game levels - level caps are determined by Square Enix in its sole discretion and subject to change at any time.
This mean if I reach the level cap and I do side quest after that I won't get exp but I if I buy a sub do I get all that backed up exp or it all goes to the ether?
Cuz I could picture this:
>reach level cap
>don't care keep doing everything
>reach end of free trial, want to keep going so buy sub
>end up under leveled since I finished all side quest while capped
Would this actually happen?

>Free Trial account characters can possess a maximum of 300,000 gil (in-game currency).
This sounds like a really low amount of money. Is it feasible to actually buy anything with this? Also sounds like I would hit the limit easily and end up with wasted gil that went poof cuz of the limit

>Free Trial Players cannot trade with other players during the Free Trial.
if I can't trade then how would I use the money? Can I even buy mats for the crafting jobs?

Feels like I should make a Free Trial Only character and when I get a sub to start with a fresh chara with no limits.

Dawntrail was always meant to be filler as a theoretical new start, the real problem is they tried to new-team lead it as a hope for Yoshida fucking off to greener pastures more often. But XVI didn't really break the bank, and while I dunno how Ivalice Chronicles did, I can imagine not super hot, while meanwhile DT was so fucking stupid a filler arc that it fucked up company profits bad. Now they're kinda blatantly scrambling back to their seats like a flaming game of musical chairs hoping to ice that problem and stabilize shit again.

you'll never end up underleveled, the MSQ and required dungeons/trials always give enough XP so you're always at or above the level req. gil is utterly irrelevant besides buying crafted gear on the market board.
>>
>>738547389
>Would this actually happen?
No, because side content is just meant to be that, side content. It can work to level other jobs, but the MSQ will always give enough EXP to go through it all at once, playing a single job

>This sounds like a really low amount of money.
It is

>Is it feasible to actually buy anything with this?
not really. I mean, there's no marketboard for Free Trials. What are you gonna buy?

>Also sounds like I would hit the limit easily and end up with wasted gil that went poof cuz of the limit
You would. Those restrictions are basically there to combat RMT bots. The game has enough as is. If Free Trials had no Gil cap and MB access, RMT bots would go crazy

>if I can't trade, then how would I use the money?
you don't.

No, unless it's shit you can buy from NPC sellers

Gil cap doesnt matter because anytbing woeth more than that is on the player driven marketboard which you dont have access to on a trial.
And level cap is just whataver the cap of the newest expansion you have access to, so now its Shadowbringers which brings the trial level cap to 80, no stored exp mechanic.

>>738547389
>Level
No, because max level quests don't give exp while they're current. You're effectively getting the same exp as someone who played when the cap was 80.
>Money
300k is fucking nothing, you're actually losing out on about 10 mil gil you'd normally get from all the msq up through level 100. But 10m Is also not very much to anyone who plays regularly.
>Trade
You can't really make much money at low levels anyway so it doesn't matter much. You can also just hold on to anything valuable you get leveling gatherers and sell it later. You shouldn't have inventory problems if you aren't crafting.

May as well claim Xande isn't in reference to FF3's villain because he wasn't a student of archmagus Noah and wasn't taught alongside Unei and Doga, the details not being completely one to one doesn't magically mean he's not a reference, in fact no FF plotline yanked for XIV follows this trend, we just had another big one with Enuo being a voidsent obsessed with nonexistence instead of a wizard that successfully controlled the Void and Exdeath's inspiration

Nah it was the second kind, it was also kind of bullshit because there were Euros in the FC but they lived in London so somehow were able to get in. Also a few really gay gays, this was back when the Palestine shit was kicking off and they would talk about it all the fucking time on raid chat and while we were raiding, talking about boycott lists of shops and brands.
Everyone was keeping quiet because you were just there to raid but these two obnoxious as fuck gays just wouldn't stop bringing their politics into it.
I think they even horrified one of the fat girls in the statics because one was talking about taking prep and she had no idea what it was, she asked, he told her in detail and then she just went "O-oh... ok then" and I remember she never talked to that gay lad again.

It had a bad story. Rest was objectively an improvement on the most part, at worst, a maintaining of the status quo.
If they had a better writer, Dawntrail would be known as the arc stablishing expansion, where nothing really happens except for planting seeds for future storylines, just like how ARR did.
It suffered from nepotism thanks to Kate, and people rightfully laser focused on her, what she did and said.
The Krile snub was the worst thing for me. I'm sure a lot of people got baited about her being more predominant during 7.0

stop being dumb, Emet Selch's goodbye shopping list he so smugly said was a massive star sized "clean it up janny". They fucking knew a lot of hidden workings of the planet and there's no proof saying that they didn't know about the consequences of ancient magic getting dispelled over time.
If anything be glad that Emet and co (not Lahabrea) trusts you to fix their shit at best.

>okay its shit but um its better than nothing???
pic is actually one of the less bad examples, if i gave enough of a shit i could pull up dozens of outfits where the dye channels only affect tiny buttons, strings, or other elements of an outfit that are barely visible unless you literally zoom all the way in

like i said, you're just a shiteater. you see literally nothing wrong with a second dye channel only affecting barely visible elements of 70% of outfits with their vaunted "dual dye channel" system

which makes sense, because if you weren't a shiteater, you wouldn't still be playing xiv

Their basic 111 finishes with "Sinistral"/"Dextral" positionals and it's not going to be possible to ignore *all* positionals even if you're slapping Vengeful Jump the instant it's available, on top of the aforementioned probability of wanting to save positional ignoring for key times because True North no longer exists

This is, objectively, a higher focus on positionals than current job design, and fewer avenues with which to ignore them

i swear to god you people have never thought about the retardation of xiv's job design in the current year. 2 minutes are the absolute most centralizing mechanic in this game, EVERY single job in the game is built around you bursting around 2 minutes, every single modern fight in this game is built around you bursting every 2 minutes, every job change or balance decision is revolved around you bursting every 2 minutes. we basically do not have jobs, we have buffs and everything that leads to you doing as much damage as possible within those buffs. yes getting rid of these buffs and making job rotations more free form is one of the biggest changes we will ever see in this game.

EVERY video game has some form of rotations, retard
it's a question of whether or not the other gameplay elements are engaging enough to avoid that central loop getting old
in the case of an mmo, that's typically done through class design
nuking the 2min meta removes the biggest factor that kept jobs from having an engaging amount of variety

I sincerely doubt anything about the story would have changed whether wow was more or less successful, if anything its probably the fuckton of qc people they moved back and forth between xiv and xvi that set them on the "lets put the literal end of the story right after our most successful expac to date" since they were finalizing ew before the mid 5.x mass migration happened

So, obviously it was a huge failure.
But I resubbed for 8.0 cause I saw some changes that are honestly kind of interesting to me.
The evolve mode combat might just be what I need to not give a shit about bloated job actions. It might even give them some identity again.
Like in PvP, if only it wasn't riddled with fucking scripting faggots.

However, I do realize that this is just a cope, and that it still remains to be seen what these dickheads can cook up, but I will concede that this is a dumb decision on my part given their retarded jap boomer track record.

My only hope, is that the guy in charge of the Evolve mode is young and not a fucking dumbass like the entire board of directors.

If they fired Tracy Fullerton, that beast in human skin, I would be on board to stay subbed, but I'll give it some grains of salt for now.

So long as Hydaelyn existed then the mass death wouldn't have happened.

>>
>>738550878
And why shouldn't them, Reina-chan? Their first MMO was relatively successful and their second one became the golden goose of the company, even with it's many flaws and outdated designs. A third one to better attract new players while guaranteeing the transition of the current XIV players would be the best call for the future.

XI does not realistically get new players nowadays, not a relevant number anyways, and XIV loses many potential players with the terrible new player experience.

You start XIV what you get is a boring as hell story with mostly unvoiced dialogue with very little animations. You start a gacha the entire fucking story is voiced and has better cutscenes even being phone games.

This was Endwalkers Alliance Quest line.

Now compare it against Dawntrail's. Dawntrail truly was a bastard child, just complete fucking shit through and through.

Anon...
Gear that accommodated tails was an ARR thing, old ARR does that fir miqote but the same gear doesn't do that for au ra because au ra are basically hyurs underneath.
They played around again with tail armors in endwalker, with radiant gear and the DRK job armor for example.

Them stopped to accommodate ears is completely inexcusable though.

For Dawntrail? No it fucking wasn't. Endwalker had all the Alliance leaders fight together with you for a bunch of fights, in what is basically an Alliance raid.
Dawntrail was just some dumb cunt wanker artifacts but oops she was evil but not really.

>>738553383
Ishikawa can write a decent narrative (outside of some massive avoidable blunders like elpis) but she can't worldbuild for shit. You send her in after the worldbuilders have done their work so she can set up a story using the pieces they give her. Unfortunately Yoshi drove away all his worldbuilding talent and Hiroi was clearly not up to the task, so she has to pull double duty again.

SHE NEVER LEFT
SHE NEVER FUCKING LEFT
SHE NEVER WANTED TO FUCKING LEAVE
She just wanted her juniors to get experience writing and basically is in the same spot Oda is as a supervisor and sometimes writing side stories. Everyone who thought she was gonna be FF17 writer or whatever is peak delusional, especially now that CBU3 proved they cannot make a good mainline.
>>738553443
Only retards hated Ivalice when it was current. Nier was mostly ok but it was the first "what the fuck, why?" raid. Puppet would be good if the last boss wasn't boring as shit, Paradigm was always a fucking dull slog and still is to this day.
