Now everyone is shitting on him
What happened?

nigga tries to look like he came out of a fall out boy concert

He took a shit game and made it into a decent game. Then all the expansions to the decent game were just the exact same game again, except very slightly worse each time.

>>713808771
Chasing profits unironically. FF became too much like Call of Duty. Too much grand spectacle that has to please too many different people and has to please the shareholders. Just wasn't like that back in the 1990s.

stop

you are posting in a crazed spammer zone

op received one (1) ban and one (1) ip wipe last night for being a hyperactive retard, taking over one hundred (100) posts down along with him. the instant he dodged his ban, he claimed he was not the one banned and then resumed his spam, primarily using the same pictures that had already been wiped

now that you have seen this warning, you may continue posting at your own peril and under your own discretion. stay safe, citizen

>>713807793
>What happened?
FF14 has been stale sanitized shit ever since they removed job skill combining. It was carried by its story. When it shit the fan during Dawntrail the other flaws with the game became much more apparent.

>>713809132
Shut up

>>713809132
too bad he can't invest this time to improve his own life

>>713807793
because he literally did saved XIV and made it great until recent expansion. Even WoW fell off faster than XIV did.

>>713807793
>What happened
How long have you got? In short he lost interest in the game but instead of turning his position over to a younger more enthused, passionate person to keep direction on the game focused, he kept his position essentially being a roadblock to the progress of the game being able to change.
So it has no changed, for years now and it's led to complete stagnation the metaphorical damn was finally broken when the most recent expansion Dawntrail delivered an absolute rotten egg stinker of a story where not even the Casual player base who comprise the majority of the player base could any longer ignore the out standing issues of the game, from boring job design, to boring quests, to stale dungeons, to trials being very samey, to Qol features not getting fixed for years and years.

It's a death of 1000 cuts situation, not any one thing is wrong here, it's all of it combined which amounted to a shitstorm. On their own, the individual problems most people can overlook but again combined and over a prolonged period of time people are fed up and tired of the excuses of 'Spaghetti code' or 'please understand we can't deliver because of Cost'.

>>713810028
Japs really love doubling down on their mistakes huh?

>>713810161
nta but they are very stubborn, yes. Must be a cultural thing.

>>713810028
interesting read on the situation. personally I think that yoshi-p bit off more than he could chew with the 3 concurrent projects (16, Tactics Remake and maintaining 14) and thought that 14 would run without him. Then we had the disasterous Dawntrail xpac.

Him being snarky about 'not having enough resources' was a shot at himself for making this decision and that he screwed up. Imho this falls more in line with japanese work culture as a man of his status wouldn't be complaining about the board in public, but he's free to attack himself

>>713810028
I think the devs for XIV are also burnt out and just come into work to do the bare minimum to be paid. It's why there is no thought process behind anything and it's all templated. It's the easiest way to do your job without being creative. The Japanese economy is pretty fucked so I wouldnt be surprised

>>713808358

>>713810258
the not enough resources is also the fact that square funnels away almost all of 14's earnings and pisses it away on flops like forspoken, foamstars, and the avengers instead of investing it back into 14

>>713807793
>What happened?
The new raid, Forked Tower of Blood, has only been cleared by 0.003% of the playerbase at the time of this post.
Yoshi P claims that the reason for this is cost; it would have been too expensive to make an easier raid for the other 99.997% of the population.
That's what happened.

Long ago. The guy in the OP literally buckbroke him beyond repair and he's been seething about it for years now.

guess I don't have the budget to stay subscribed either

>>713812891
It's the only real feedback people can give that they will listen to, unsubscribing. Complaining about all these issues doesn't matter if people remain subscribed, because that tells the company that there is no outstanding problem enough to drive players away.
It's a very reactive mentality they have instead of preventative.

>>713813067
I dont think they care. They have an active playerbase of mod beasts who will stay subbed regardless of the drama. they can continue to do bare minimum and make profit.

>>713807793
You want the genuine insider truth?
He got promoted and then had to split his MMORPG team across 4 different projects halfway through Endwalkers development.
Specifically a lot of senior developers were moved off of FFXIV and replaced with newer inexperienced developers who have about 25% of the work output.
Then he watched as his hard work would be undone and the quality of the game took a nosedive during the development of Dawntrail. The man who was regularly spotted playing the game on his Lalafell account, streaming to the community, and being enthusiastic on live letters has now lost all interest in FFXIV due to how it's been handled since his promotion.

Now all he can do is put on a fake smile and say "please look forward to it" while having no real control on the quality and direction of the game.

>>713813425
Unfortunately I've been on /vg/ when the threads for FFXIV were pruned for a few weeks and most of them admit they don't pay an active subscription, they are majority modbeasts so it's a sample size of 500, (They got player scoped at one of their meet n fuck sessions they have) and most modbeasts play by using a free trial account as they have no interest in the story, they idle in Limsa, and mod tools are so powerful now that you can change almost every thing about your character without having to access items from SE cash shop.
I know this is anecdotal but the modbeasts are not keeping the game alive in revenue, perhaps in player population maybe, but they absolutely are not in money.
I went down a rabbithole once of mods they use, start with Mare and go from there.

>>713813685
He'll do anything to pretend that nobody likes the game anymore or is playing it of their own volition.

>>713813502
>Then he watched as his hard work would be undone and the quality of the game took a nosedive during the development of Dawntrail
I don't understand this narrative
Here's the patch notes for 5.2 https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/b0151eaed1faecb46061b947cf9c08bed75d230d
What's in here that blows Dawntrail out of the water exactly?

>>713813910
You'll do anything to keep your thread alive. Go bump your other one.

>>713807793
He took FFXIV and turned it into streamlined WoW for babies. Improved it some(ARR-SB), then progressively made it worse with every patch(SB-Now). And now we're here.
He intentionally removed every RPG element he could out of the game to cut costs and now the game is impossible to expand without actual engineers making new gameplay features.
Nothing feels good about it because the game isn't an RPG in any capacity.

When can we add harem and families. I need my 7 femroe wives swollen and holden

>>713813971
You should be comparing DT to Stormblood, not to Shadowbringers. Stormblood had even less content to do but way more active of a playerbase that played the game because there a lot of game to play.
Content doesn't just mean some segmented piece of trash that you do for loot. It also means the act of learning a new class.
When Jobs are different, there are different strategies to learn, optimize and execute depending on what you're playing and what your party is. Stormblood offered more gameplay content despite having the same exact trash garbage content.

This is what gets people the most. "What was different back then compared to now if we're getting more content now?"

The short answer is that the game is way worse to play now.

>>713807719 (OP)
then where's the fucking sub money?

>>713813971
Nothing, lol. People who say we're getting less are full of shit. Stormblood is the only point in time where we got more. Shadowbringers cut a lot of content and had long waits between patches (which people accepted because covid), Endwalker was maligned for having too little content, and Heavenward nearly killed the game again for having very little content except raiding, and the raids drove people away.
Only Stormblood is comparable to Dawntrail in terms of content.

>When Jobs are different, there are different strategies to learn, optimize and execute depending on what you're playing and what your party is. Stormblood offered more gameplay content despite having the same exact trash garbage content.
Bosses in Stormblood still the exact same mechanics in the exact same order so you still run into the exact same issue where you can map out your gcds to the letter.
I guess o3s might be the exeception?

I forgot we didn't even get Diadem proper until 5.21. I thought it was 5.1.

your literalmente a cucok if you do anythign but sub por new expanison and unsub

>>713814605
Far as DT dungeons go, I felt like this one was a bit weak in terms of the fight dungeons, but there's always some that are better than others, so 7.3 will probably have a better one again.

>>713814702
the Gargant is an excellent first boss and a cute ff9 reference. the soldier was boring and Vaila Pira was meh

That shit happened at the end of HW, when SB was functionally complete but going through polish.
Juniors have been running amok ever since.

>>713813502
I think he just wanted to stop XIV and be put on other projects
If he cared about XIV, he wouldn't have watered it down (starting from ShB) for the sake of the devs having an easier time developing shit
Now the HW fight/job designers are definitely gone, and their loss is felt, but it's not like Yoshida couldn't have told the new guys
>oh btw don't make every single fight for 7 years in/out/stack/spread/proteans/pairs

He's every bit to blame regardless of how busy he is with other projects; the yassification of jobs and fights has been happening long before FFXVI

>>713814578
Well yeah. But you're talking about raiding which is the least enjoyable and biggest time waste in development resources the game has (because nobody plays it).
Dungeons and trials were more fun to do. Doing roulettes felt better because skills weren't as spread out.
Areas weren't as huge as they are now so there was more content to do in a short span.
Compare that to Endwalker/DT where 90% of the MSQ gameplay is walking.

Even something simpler like POTD was great fun because the jobs were max level when you entered. So just the act of fighting random enemies and having to adapt felt great.

>>713814245
I should have saved the links, but I checked /v/ threads back on SB launch and it was 90% people talking about content and job changes and 5% shitposting and 5% horny lyseposters
The community definitely got flooded with story-focused fags after ShB

>>713815514
>it was 90% people talking about content and job changes
It was worth talking about then.
The Balance was a new thing in HW, not the blight it has become for job discusssion and people generally had more of a clue. Nevermind the actual functional differences in jobs, now the differences are basically cosmetic.

sirs do i come it back now or wait it for 8?

it didn't make it great, he made it playable which wasn't a high bar.

xiv had nothing to fall off from

>>713815856
I'm with him that the community got essentially rapefugee'd during Shadowbringers, it wasn't the grass being greener it was people shitting on the lawn.

>>713815867
Wait for 8 but don't hold your breath. See if jobs "reworks" are real or just another flavour of the dumb shit we've had for the last 6 years.

>>713807719 (OP)
Well, I guess I don't have the budget to stay subbed. Stupid fuck

>>713807793

>>713810258
16 being a carbon copy of xiv's structure has nothing to do with being spread thin of resources, it's a mindset.

>>713816047
there's a definite contingent of gacha-brained retards begging for faster and faster updates because they finally caught up and the "infinite content" thing stopped being real for them

Is confirmed 7.3 is the end of dawntrail? because if so, What are the other Trials going to be?

>>713814825
Gargant was fine for a first one, Soldier was eh, Valia Pira was fine and catches some people still, but overall not very exciting. I think I like the 7.1 dungeon more.
But they can't all be winners. Overall, the DT dungeons so far have been good, but they need to give more unique and dyeable gear.

>>713816290
1) yes
2) no idea presently, probably related to next expansion which we similarly have no idea what it could be

>>713815867
depends on what made you quit

>>713815959
It absolutely did. Appeal to retards, get retards.
The dumbing down of everything, smoothing all the rough edges or "pain points" for people and the incessant need to appease everybody have left it pleasing nobody.
TP had a purpose and it is was the start of what has led to the shit state it's in. People just refused to acknowledge that removing it would significantly alter the game. Then the next thing was on the chopping block, then the next....
And here we are.

>>713816290
>Is confirmed 7.3 is the end of dawntrail?
yeah. yoship said several times they're following the old schedule again
>what are the other trials going to be
tied to whatever we're doing in 7.4 and 7.5 i assume + a bonus Hildi trial

>>713816290
By end of DT, they mean, end of the storyline on that continent. They've literally already setup Mercida, there's a strong story point aiming at the South Sea Isles now as well. Trials will be whatever the fuck we see in where we go, it's all going to be 8.0 buildup now.

>>713816846
Yeah, but for DT all there was to talk about was the laughably shit story

>>713816839
SB, while it had some changes, still had the core of the HW jobs within them.
It was the last expac that expaneded jobs by adding fucntions and mechanics, not + 1 stack of big thing or follow up attack after big thing!
Somebody is going to shout PARADOX at me, but they just replaced F1/B1. The shit we did with them were never the intention of them.

>>713807793
he buckbroke too many schizos so now they're trying to take him down (and failing)

Them homogenising the jobs is the biggest reason I unsubbed and just went back to FFXI private servers. Honestly, I don't know what is the obsession with MMOs and the story. Like in FFXI the stories/expansions are very good but the focus was always the jobs, the equipment, the stats, the grind etc.

SB AST/DRK/SCH were so much fucking fun. I think raidfaggots really are to blame for killing the uniqueness of the jobs. They would complain that another job does 0.3% more damage than another and the devs capitulated to them. Like dude, not every fucking job needs to be some bleeding edge meta min/max bullshittery. But the weirdos are absolutely obsessed with min/maxxing dps, even if it makes a fight like maybe 10 seconds quicker it's insane.

I hate parse and raidfaggots more than the ERPers and modbeasts. They truly ruined a game that was quite fun back in the day.

>>713807793
He did an amazing job from 2013-2021. Then, he pulled the rug and walked away from it all. Now you understand.

>>713817967
I can tell you first hand, it very often wasn't the actual raid faggots. They'd just play the other job if it was something they wanted/needed.
The midwit 'tards would get jealous and demand their job also has thing and get overly focussed on logs. A sizeable chunk of autists fit into this once The Balance became an "authority" on anything and they ahd a "community" they wanted ot impress.
Some raid faggots are absolutely to blame for making it sound like a bigger deal than it really was as far as balance was concerned. The rest are just impressionable idiots and incredibly vocal about it, particularly for PF and job exclusions.
It's essentially bad signal amplification that SE couldn't understand properly because it was predominantly non-JP.
Their community managers weren't exactly competent as far as the game worked mechanically so they couldn't even inform them properly.
Hence, shit decision making.

If you want the game to actually die, there's no better way to accomplish it than creating imbalanced jobs and just telling people upset with their job not being able to perform to "gtfo and play another job".
They could do some things to make jobs more diverse, but the "fuck them if they don't like it" stance a lot of /v/ armchair devs take will bleed XIV out in record time.

a modbeast just flew over my house

>Job level cap is still 100, but instead you can level up your Job Stone past 100 to get Mastery Materia, which instead allows you to buy additional skills you can apply to a tray of a few slots to bring into duties ala Eureka/Bozja

This is what leads to the thing you complain about. To be different enough, they end being good at different things. Meaning they'#re advantaged in certain situations and certain fights. Which will make people bitch about their job not being "viable".
This is why you ended up with the different coats of paint.

>>713807793
He did save it initially, but it's been 10 years since then and XIV has barely changed

The gearing system is still horrific despite the purpose being able to play multiple classes on 1 character you actually can't. You need to wait 3 months to buy the gear due to weekly gatekeeping on currency
X.1, X.2 etc patches are all identical every single expansion, you can even predict what materials will be needed for crafting new recipes based on the past equivalent lvl one. It's all so predictable there's no excitement
Completely outdated QoL systems like dial up friends list and limited amount of outfit storage. Or no cross DC PF to save dead servers. Or housing being limited and having a lotto system to even get a house

Even the stuff they do that's good takes YEARS to implement. It took them 6 years to add headgear to viera, and their solution to it was just allow the ears to clip through, that's all. 6 fucking years of waiting for that? Why wasn't that done earlier?? No wonder people are upset

If budget was that shit WHY did they think that aiming for the niche high skill level players was the move? I'm sure a good chunk of casual cunts that was interested in the OC gave up when they were told there was no goal for them to attain after Level 20
Fuck how do they have the budget no to say that next ones will have both Normal and Savage?

>>713820965
>It had a quarter of the subs it has now.
The game exploded during Covid and also due to WoW expansion shitting the bed. Also Asmongold starting playing it which probably brought another 500k people in. It's definitely going down now though

What if this is a master ploy to get the playerbase whipped up into a fury so the suits see the blowback and give Yoshi carte blanche to "resolve the situation"?

>>713820912

The problem isn't that it hasn't changed, it's that the changes overall have been for the worse and now there's no MSQ that had people invested.

The keks ascend. No wonder nobody pays any attention to your ideas.

>>713821207
How can you possibly defend the savage gearing system in this game. It is actively antagonistic if you want to play more than one job/role type in a raid tier.

>>713821207
Not reading any of that. Clearly a Yoshidrone dickrider who thinks SE can't do any wrong. Imagine simping for a fucking billion dollar company. I'd be embarrassed to look at myself in the mirror if I were you.

>>713821368
He's a WoWnigger who thinks you shouldn't change jobs in a job system Final Fantasy because he's mad he had to roll a new character for his guild.

>>713821341
>just so i and my 5 friends can hijack it and larp that it's XI 2.0
I don't need it to be XI 2.0. I can play XI right now for free on private servers (which I am doing) you gigantic faggot.

>>713821407
Not an argument.
>>713821368
I'm just saying you're a little baby if you think XIV is bad with it. Hell, you can even get raid-ready crafted gear day 1.

>>713821368
Nta but this only because of a retarded idea that BiS is mandatory.
You can clear savage in crafted and Ults only need capped ilvl.

>>713821130
the suits told that investment journalist to fuck off in much nicer terms when he asked DID U KNO DAWNTRAIL FLOPPED AND SHITTED??? at shareholders meetings, they genuinely do not care what yoshida does and won't until XIV doesn't exist as a safety net anymore

>>713821368

No, we'd just like XIV to be XIV again, not the dumbed down version they've turned it into to appease retards and mouth breathers.

>>713821557

>>713821631
Nooooo XIV is le perfect game and le Yoshida is the best developer in le world

give msq patch now

>>713821631
And we (actual XIV players) would like the game to not die and become unnecessarily hostile to people.
And I think the opinions of the people who want the game to survive trumps yours, so piss your pants about it.

>>713821701
To be fair, The idea of having to jobhop between tiers AND the way getting gear works contradict each other, a class rework might demand, at least, a rework on gear distribution if not on gear overall

>>713810028
A younger, more enthused, passionate person wouldn't necessarily be able to deliver a high quality product. There's always a gamble here. When you pass on the torch, the game might become significantly worse than what you yourself would have made. You can complain about Dawntrail, but it could have been much worse.

Some people find a younger person they're willing to invest in and take that risk. Others don't. This sort of thing always seems simple when you're an autist talking about it like it's a video game on an online message board. It isn't as simple when it's your real life that you've spent a decade on and your resources and time are limited to what you yourself can actually physically access IRL (while maintaining a work-life balance).

How long do you think it takes to find a successor? It's not a video game, you don't pull up a screen of NPCs and check their stats. You need to go out and find them, interview them, work with them in your daily life for months and years. And it's only a job. Neither you nor your successor cares that much. All men aspire to be NEETs so they can sit around playing MMOs all day.

>>713821701
surely as an RPG epic oldfag you have the brainpower to extrapolate why things that work in FF5 may not work or be desirable in FF14

>>713821701
Yes. It would kill it. In a matter of weeks.
Any pretense otherwise is criminally deluded.

Where do you think the erp modbeasts / second life refugees would go if 14 shut down tomorrow?

It's funny how Sena stopped being a problem now that he's working on Blizzard lmao

>bro you like playing SAM?
>well, fuck you, play NIN instead because SAM sucks dick for this raid tier because we needed to pander to 5 fags with a gimmick itch in their ass they need to scratch

>>713821207
>He thinks XIV is gatekeepy with gear LMAO
Other mmos can be grindy yes but they're just 1 class per character, the whole appeal they sell XIV with is being able to play all the classes on 1 character without the need of alts. Yet they provide zero help to achieving that, you can't gear any of those other characters. And that's just cope tome gear, let alone raid gear that would take even longer. 1 and a half months to get ONE shirt from raiding, pants also cost the same btw. Two months to get one weapon from raiding. Almost 3 months to get one class is on par with some other mmos, yet here you can gear multiple classes, so how the fuck are you meant to do that with the current systems.

>Working on this.
He said it was technically possible but seemed hesitant about doing it. It's not confirmed to be in the works or anything yet. So servers like dynamis will continue to die

>>713813986
NOOOO yoshi P dosent look like that

>>713821802
How was it that the jobs were more varied and unique in HW/SB then? It can work the devs just don't care for the sake of balance.

>>713821894
You can always make your own groups. Not everybody is a meta slave, some people just group and do content because it's fun.
>Oh but the balance ooooh this job performs better in x fight
You sound like a woman.

>>713821791
Yeah, the gearing system should also be changed to allow you to switch more easily.
>>713821802
>*laughs in occult crescent*
Why are you playing a job system Final Fantasy if you don't think it should use the job system?
>>713821808
Explain your reasoning, dumbfuck. Because casual players aren't going to switch off their favorite no matter what since they don't give a shit about being optimal. The only crybabies will be balance parsetrannies and WoWnigger tourists like you.

>>713821738

last i checked he already said they would do it but that it would take a while

>>713821631
A reasonable position to take and most would agree. ARR was to me still the most fun I've had with the game, so many systems they tried and you could feel they were still experimenting with what worked and what didn't.
But on the other end of the spectrum Dawntrail they've became so formulaic, that I can predict almost to the T what content will drop and when months in advance, it's very boring, there is no hidden surprises anymore, nothing really exciting.
I don't think they care to try to experiment anymore, they said Dawntrail was going to be setting up for the next ten years but how have they done that? I'm still waiting to see what they mean by that.

>>713821983
Most jobs were in a disastrous place in Heavensward, quit touching yourself to the thought of uniquity. Aion and Maplestory 2 would still be alive if "it's unique" was all it took to keep a game populated.

>bro you like playing SAM?

I don't think we'll get gear variety like every other game, mostly because shoving that balance change alongside with a substancial mechanical rework to a game with as much content as this one seems like a loosing battle overall

I've pretty much come to the conclusion the only reason people defend the homogenisation is that XIV is their first MMO and they don't actually know anything.

People should be changing their job because they are interested in the other job.

>>713822102

Tell me how DRK, SCH or AST were disastrous? The only thing AST min/maxxing faggots complained about was fishing for balance (which was a non-issue anyway)

there is an ideological battle between /v/ dipshits that want it to transform into another game to keep specifically their own attention on it, and basically everyone currently playing the game that wants the first party turned into sausage for saying the game should reboot or soft reboot to appeal to a vocal minority

A job being better for a certain fight does not mean the game is forcing you to change to it. That means your HRT-drown parsetranny static is forcing you to change.

>>713821898
>1 and a half months to get ONE shirt from raiding, pants also cost the same btw
Stop PF'ing like a lonely loser. They actively made this worse by only dropping tokens for the items so everybody will roll regardless. It used to be, if it drops roll need, if not you have books. Now it's all need all the time.
And they only did that because people like you bitched about it being unfair. Well now you realise how bullshit it can really be.

>>713822029
crafted gear is the baseline default you start with. not gearing
even the cope alternatives like relic weapons happen 4-5 months after a raid comes out. they just provide no horizontal progression in this game for gearing, despite there being so many classes to gear.

The right person has to exist, and be looking for a job, and your job has to seem appealing to them. The right person has to apply. Then they have to make it to an interview based on their qualifications (i.e. they have to have past experience). You have to conduct the interview, then you have to successfully identify that this is a good candidate based on that interview. Then you have to offer them a job, then they have to accept it (i.e. they didn't get a better job offer). Then you need to spend several months or years training and observing them alongside other candidates to confirm that they're the right candidate. Then you have to actually find a good time to pass on the torch.

None of these steps are easy. You dont just press a button like in an MMO and it happens. You, the person doing it, have to possess the luck, insight, and social skills to performe each step. Considering that ypu are likely a fat shut-in with terrible social skills, I think you should be able to jnderstand that it isn't trivial. I would not currently have a job if it were easy to find a replacement for me. This shit takes time.

Alliance raids had actual mechanics that needed to be done. 2.1 gave us Ex trials, a weekly quest for them AND a WAR rework (old WAR was fine, just misunderstood/misused and PLD was simpler) and a Trial and dungeons. Patch quests were significant and significantly progressed and built up and MSQ, and Mor Dhona was being rebuilt around us. And that's just ARR.
We had a good game and it's been taken from us, piece by piece.

>>713822659

Once again, the inability for BPD headcases to compromise between two extremes leaves a discussion dead in the water.
Let's hope the devs are actually wiser than any screeching mongoloids ITT.

>>713822740
It's not foreign to me because I have actually worked in a corporate setting before. It's foreign to you because you've been a NEET your entire life.

I mean you can keep saying that they will proceed in the direction of homogenisation but the game is actively dying daily. Yoshida has already stated they don't have any more development budget. The shareholders at SE recently admitted the quality of XIV is down due to CBU3 staff being shared across different games.

So who is winning really?

>>713822701
>Alliance raids had actual mechanics that needed to be done
Underrated. I remember when each alliance had to do something. Now it's just a big 24 man dungeon everyone slapping the same boss and doing the same mechanics

>>713822239
Actually the game SHOULD be incentivizing the player to engage with a core gameplay system. If you don't agree, it's because you hate a fundamental part of the game and you shouldn't be here.
Note, since you're an ESL zoommutt: The word 'incentivize' is not a synonym for 'force'. You should be rewarded for using the best job for a fight, but never required.

You're the one arguing that some jobs should outright be unable to clear certain content, retard.

>>713822508

I'm a lazy overpaid sack of shit who barely does anything. They still can't find anyone better than me. That's the reality you're working with as a manager. You take the best candidates you can get, and they usually aren't good enough.

I hope we get more stuff like m6s honestly. That was the most experimental gameplay we've had in a long time and it's just an add phase. Please just bring back more actual player coordination.

My idea is to add subjobs and customization but can’t be used for the current raid. An idea to just allow crazy fuckery while current raids have the “balanced” jobs.

In HW/SB all healers were useful yet varied. SCH/AST were definitely superior to WHM but WHM was way more simple to pick up and learn. Was it not optimal to pick a WHM for raids? Sure but the raid could still be completed, albeit maybe slightly slower.

There really isn't any excuse for homogenisation.

>>713823124

I can see some sorta subjob kinda thing. They said we're probably not going to go past 100 (which I would prefer because I'm autistic and 110 and 120 and so on are ugly to me), so they'll have to add some alternate form of progression.Tying some abils to that, or different game styles, or whatever, would work well.

oh so you're a casual, that's why you have this mindset
the appeal of mmos for some people is chasing the best gear you can. even though they can swap to alts with crafted gear you're genuinely a sandbag going into raids 3 months into the tier with gear like that. it's not even about gearing for ultimates or anything. a lot of the reason why some people play those games, is the chase, not the ending. there's no reason why wow players will farm for a 0.2% increase on a ring, but they will.

You are seething about an argument nobody made.

>>713823645
>oh so you're a casual
lmao
The gear is a treadmill, the purpose of it is to beat the next thing. The next thing is Ult, between Savage release and Ult we can gear 2 or 3 jobs fully in BiS each with static in prep for Ult.
We don't need the gear to clear the fights that reward it, we dick around with savage and swap jobs all the time because bored.
The content is the point, the reward is always whatever.
Just because you're an preening faggot who wants to show off and feel validated doesn't change how it actually works.

>>713824004
after 20 years, wow can finally bring out a housing system and it's marginally better than xiv's. clap clap
too bad the game is still ugly as sin and i will never play it
but i'll give the game a small nod of acknowledgment when it leads to instanced housing in xiv because the devs felt forced to reciprocate to compete

XIV gear isn't interesting. I don't even remember the name of the gear I currently have equipped, I don't give a shit at all about what I'm wearing because it doesn't matter. Gear in XIV is effectively just a key system for the next raid. There's nothing appealing about it outside of glamour so there's nothing to chase.

some faggots here can't even unsub from this shit game because they are hostage to yoship dogshit ''unsub and lose your shitty house that took 5 months of lotteries to get it'' lmao

Yeah BLM is fun as shit. I just went back to XI brother. XIV is a zoomercore game

>>713824056
instance vs not is functionally no different in how xiv ones are used anyway.
besides wow instances can make private neighbourhoods which is the entire appeal of not having instance housing. you can make an entire community there whereas xiv has a bunch of dead houses of submarine botters, rarely will you actually find anyone around in the housing district while you're there unless some sort of event is going on at a house

>>713824243
Case in point.

>>713824294
>Gear in XIV is effectively just a key system for the next raid.
And also a way to keep you subscribed. With the way gear works in XIV, they could roll all the stats from gear into your levels instead. Gear is completely and utterly useless beyond glam and making you stay subscribed for longer.

Like right here. More voices. This never happened. What people argued was that jobs should feel different and that certain fights should cater to certain jobs. You've been arguing with the voices in your head instead of reading what anyone is actually seeing. This is what HRT does to people, folks.

Okay, so you are actually retarded.
They'd have to be exactly stacked and you would have to be absolutely retarded to not be able to time a heal in the damage to avoid a wipe.
And if they're close to the dragon, in the middle, then there's a bunch of melee who will hit them as they start getting up just because they're bored.
So the chances of it are so incredibly slim as to be comical.

It's not the dumbing down, it's the making them all functionally the same.
They could dumb them down and they could still be different, but that's not the path they took because people bitched about one job having something they didn't so now they all have an equivalent.
Everything is almost entirely interchangeable and that's the problem.

Nope, not at all. Just played when it was new content. Kept it in the middle, had retard tanks unable to drag adds away and still healed through it.
You realise the melee don't bother hitting the skeles until they close after getting up because it's not worth the time to move to them?
You realise they don't take less damage when they're linked, they only move faster?
You realise you could literally stack them all on top of each other and have everybody press 1 (one) AoE button each and it's over?
Nope, not a clue mate, you're right.

yeah but e33 is not just good because it's turn based combat. It's a more of a whole. Just look at the dialogue, it never really feels robotic (combined with the mocap).
Now, can a japanese studio makes a game without doing the almost mandatory scenes with their "ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh" or other stuff?

just because se gets turn base combat again for the potential next ff doesn't guarantee it'll be good. They had decades of games, and never made a blm better than what lune is.

>>713827123
>Now, can a japanese studio makes a game without doing the almost mandatory scenes with their "ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh" or other stuff?
For all FFXVI's failings (and it has quite a lot of them), this is one thing it did succeed at. Probably because it was written for English voices first with Koji managing that end.

Good point, I've no doubt if SE tries to copy the success of Exp 33 they will simply try to mimic the game without understanding the whys of what made it popular.

They have form for doing that, they made FF16 with Yoshida himself saying that he made the dev team watch GoTs season 1-4 for inspiration for the game, but the television series GoTs is based on the books of the same name and they by George R. R. Martin himself said he based the setting of his books as a fantasy version of the English Wars of the Roses.
This is one reason why FF16 feels so hollow. It did not understand the root inspiration of Game of Thrones.

They're just going to offload all the grind into one-time steps as some sort of "compromise" and we're going to end up with another generation of shitty fake relics everybody and their mom owns. Glad this game is dying to be desu.

I really enjoyed XVI, but desu I don't even know what they thought about Ultima.
Especially when you learn in the ultimania book that everything is happening on the same planet, that ultima seems to come from another continent.
I don't even know what's GoT have to do with that. That's why, up until Bahamut, it was kino, then it kinda got weird and extremely Manichean (even though, it was already before because it was basically magic cancer slaves vs masters).

For me, it was mostly that, and the pacing issues. God, this game had the highest highs, but you paid them dearly with the lowest lows imaginable... And even though most of the side quests were bloating, the last one were the interesting ones... Just cut it out, for next game...

SE shouldn't act in a reactionary way. They need to make their own shit, with no westie influence. No "mu favorite genre isn't this game", no "muh representation", no "i finished the game, and i'm bored now, thus game is bad"
fuck western faggots, FUCK KITASE and "muh modern sensibilities".

Are you on drugs? They regressed Wuk Lamat's character from the end of EW and made her some amnesiac retard in DT. You go on a journey of 'discovery' where she pretends to not know the people of her country, where she is the goddamn princess, but she doesn't know the most basic shit about every group of people that live there? Not only that, they removed all the gameplay. It was a really bad visual novel, where the main character (you) the warrior of light has to take a backseat to a moron. This is like getting replaced by an H1B1 visa jeet and having to train them on how to do your job.

>>713830367
? That's way too forgiving then. Modern Square troon devs and fans deserve the Event Horizon treatment, at least.

>>713830440
what's going on

Yoshida hasn't touched his own game since fucking off to shit out XVI. 10 yen is way too much for him

>>713830513
Just making sure it's clear for everyone that you're basically calling for a psycho to murder people in gruesome, unconscionable ways because they develop a game you don't like. :)

>>713830575
No I'm just soooooo thankful that someone knowledgeable like you was here to explain what happened to Kyoani to us here on this anime website! It's really such obscure knowledge but luckily you're really smart and helpful Thank you so much!

>>713830593
The schizo is just dumping his images in the thread

LB! LB! LB! LB! LB! LB!

>>713830423
They did and it's only worth 10 yen which is 0.05 pence in £££.
While at the same time a basic Yshtola card is worth 1000 yen around £50 and that's not including the foil versions.

>>713830665
the fuck is he doing then?
xvi isn't getting new shit either

>>713830687
You're welcome. It's good when everyone knows for certain that you're not only condoning the murder of innocent people for inflaming a deranged genetic dead end with their existence, but that you wish for it to happen to other people for something as trivial as making games you don't like as well.
Just so we're all on the same page here.

No matter how bad DT turned out Wuk Lamat had some clear intention to not be as competent as she tried to imply when she recruited us. That part was always going to be her story and you should have been able to pick up on that from the end of EW where she's clearly shaken after fighting the bird.

>>713830783
The effect is shit and Yshtola is Yshtola
Are you being obtuse on purpose?
ofc you are

Tbf square sucking the blackrock cock for gibs is understandable. They were never a serious contender, xivniggers are just loud yappy dogs

>>713807793
he repeated same shit for 10 years

wuklmaotrail they do even safer steps than before, can't wait for 7.5 oc zone having two raids as "wer sorry"

have no time for ultimate but for talking about design of 400$ earring

>>713830923
I'm on an imageboard with various sorts of people, most of which I trust not to be unhinged sociopaths. But sometimes, some of them slip through the cracks and start to mistakenly believe that they have anything of value to contribute with their braindead, garbled whimpering.
Luckily, I know this guy wouldn't have the stones to go out there and do it himself. He'd be petrified and drop his spaghetti the moment anyone talks to him.

>>713830892
Incompetent is fine, not knowing a damn thing about the country you grew up in and supposedly love so so much is not that.

>>713830898
Calm down Ten Yen Yoshida, harassing people isn't going to make them want to buy your card.

>>713807793
he's trying to retire, but left the most retarded employees in charge

>>713831028
>can't wait for 7.5 oc zone having two raids as "wer sorry"
More likely 7.45 one and 7.55 another.
But good. Two more raids would be nice.

>>713828783
>i maxxed all my jobs 2 months into the xpac
Get a job and a life you dork lmao

>>713831052
read your URL
Maybe do some light research on this african mud cake forum.

Still confident this fag is just a falseflagger. All he's doing is making XIV haters look like mentally disabled, foaming at the mouth shitbulls.

>>713831095
>why does this card with shitty effect and lower rarity is cheaper than a collectable one, with the most popular character in the game and higher rarity?
you're a retard

>>713830892
the problem isn't that it was her story, it was that her story sucks. it's just John Fantasy's story again, but worse, right up to the part where the immortal leader of the Bad Guys has to kill us after we did some tactical character building, specifically so they can steal all our souls to resurrect their dead empire. boring!

>>713830678
>>713830810
I knooooooooow I'm just soooo glad you were here to explain to those of us here on this anime website what happened to Kyoani!!!!! I don't know how we could have known without your brave and selfless explanation!!! You're just so super smart and kind and I'm glad we have redditors like you around to tell us anime fans what happened to Kyoani!!!!

>>713831286

he literally doesn't care. what he does care about, is his tie with world of warcraft. he'd do anything to cover the fact that he plays wow

>>713831427
You're welcome, anon. I'm glad you're happy too that I'm willing to elaborate that you're calling for Square employees to be burned alive for offending you by making a game you don't like.

post count keeps going up but nothing appears
this is awesome

>>713831692
>you're calling for Square employees to be burned alive
OMG I would never!!!!! I'm just sooooooo super glad you were here to tell us anime fans here on the famous anime website 4chan what happened to famous and beloved anime studio Kyoani!!!!! I'm expressing my gratitude!!!!!! You're just soooo smart and helpful and wow! Thank you so so much for filling us in!!!!!!! Now I, anime fan on 4chan, know what happened to Kyonai, famous anime studio known for classic 4chan-core anime series such as Lucky Star and K-On and Nichijou!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!

>>713831732
Can't he hire some new blood to the team?
He's getting old and ignorant to the new trends.

>>713831880
You don't have to thank me 5 times. I already feel appreciated enough. It was a simple explanation of the meaning behind your words and your sentiment of wanting potentially double to triple digit amounts of people to die for buttflustering you by making a game you don't like.

>>713831692
Your moralising doesn't make you a better person than any of those people.

make a new yoshitpiss humiliation thread please

You're telling me that I fell asleep, woke up, went to work, came home and this browno is STILL DOOMPING AND TALKING TO HIMSELF???

FIRE KATE AND HIROI DAICHI

This nigga is just making me sad, such wasted potential of his autismal hyperfixation on a subject.

>>713831912
You have to be fluent in Japanese, willing to take a paycut, and work on a game with terrible coding barely documented from the PS3, people aren't lining up at the door for that.

>>713829534
I miss FF Explorers. It wasn't even that good, but it was mindlessly endlessly consoomable. Used to play it with a mate.

Nu-/v/ really has become an outstanding example of the notion that if you make a sport out of pretending to be something for an extended period of time, you'll begin to attract people who think and behave that way in earnest and before long that's all you're left with.

>>713832109
>>713832262

>>713832207
some passionate weebs will do it, just like koji

>>713832283
thanks bro

>>713832236
On top of which we have an entire generation of retards that take everything at face value now too.

>>713832087
No, me being a better person than someone who wishes for people to die for making games he doesn't like makes me a better person.
It's in fact very easy to not wish for people's gruesome deaths for making a game you don't like. Most people clear that very basic criterion.

>>713807793
Yoshida's life reads like some oscarbait tragedy or hallmark movie:
>save mmo
>let the success and fame get to his head
>leave the most pozzed leftists imaginable in charge to run the mmo while he makes ff16
>everything collapses within a year, his own ceo throws him under the bus, and his best friend dies of cancer
Then the final scene is him sitting alone at a dark table with suicide pills and booze, fade to black

>>713829830
The writing was awful, not being able to say no to certain things was terrible. It was far more than the VA. But it certainly did not help.

>yoshitpiss humiliation thread
>it's a guy shitting his diapers and folderdumping for hours while people laugh at him
somehow, I don't think it's yoshitpiss being humiliated here

>>713831017
Square Enix is that small? They really do just survive off nostalgia.

>>713832207

2025, a bunch of japanese PROGRAMMERS "unable" to learn English in order to work with oversea dev

Multidollar, INTERNATIONAL company btw. Anyone who is buying into this is retard. This club is for yoshida and his friends only, need more budget please.

>>713832631
He hasn't been doing it for hours. He's been doing it for DAYS. and he's NOT EVEN BOTTING

>>713832631
shut up
don't tell him

>>713832427
What is hyperbole?
What is exaggeration?
What is credible chance of action?
What is humor?
What is gallows humor?
When somebody says they're going to kill somebody because they're angry after habing a falling out, do you call the police on them?
Performative compassion is all you have because it makes you feel superior.

>>713832860
years actually

>>713822996
Nah lol you really are retarded, settle down.

>>713832879
gallows humor isn't begging for soken's cancer to claim him, that's just mean spirited

>>713833024
Oh no, somebody wishes misfortune on somebody. Quick, moralise about it.

>>713832860
well, months
but i'm talking about just in one thread alone

>>713832736
>every thread is xivcuck seethe over chinks mogging their dead mmo
sad

>>713832879
>"oh my chungus i am just being a heckin joker we live in a society when i make 50 of the same post i spam hoping for people to die a painful death by being burned alive you just aren't 4chan certified enough to get the profundity of my epic praise kek humor"

>>713833093
He's a redditor which is why he felt the need to explain what kyoani means in that context. He assumes everyone else here is an ignorant secondary like himself.

>>713833093
>oh no, i threw a tarp of gallows humor over actual seething and they didn't buy it
stick to your folder, i own your ass fat boy

>>713833093
>He feels moralised because 99.9% of human beings are more functional and less sociopathic than he is.
Kek.

Can't wait for the upcoming calamity in 8.0

>>713832915
Very rarely there's one (1) (uno) thread where he's absent or gets ignored at the start and leaves, maybe like once a week. Probably from actual exhaustion

>>713833343
it's insanely obvious when he's not here too no fucking gibberish posts, tranny hate, dev hate, modbeast hate, no WoW mentions

My only problem is: when did we stop making fun of lolcows?
Shitting up (and making) multiple threads daily every week of every month with the same seething folderdumpies is beyond lolcow behavior.

>>713833229
I know, but I've certainly hit a nerve with my crap.
They NEED to feel superior. They're samefagging to appear that way or they got friends to support them because they're so heckin' good, look at how good they are.

>>713833534
My favorite is when he tries to pretend he's not the same dude responding to himself several times backing him up.
And then his posts get purged, and oops, all those "totally different people" had their posts disappeared in the same instant. How'd that happen.

>>713825076
>XIV has one, arguably two bad expansions and its over
>But the same happened to WoW and suddenly its having its comeback
Clearly that means XIV will make a comeback

>>713833537
Sheer volume. Both volume of lolcows and the volume of posts overall.

>See, they're trying to assert their social superiority to me by indicating that they're not sociopaths who want people burned to death for making a game they don't like! That's what it's all about! Raising themselves above me by [believing completely normal and standard things].
Holy mother of insecurity.

>>713833848
Oops, you forgot to properly link the post you were replying to! Here, let me help you! >>713833673

>>713833817
WoW is quite literally the same it was in Shadowlands and Dragonflight. The story is still shit, the endgame is still m+ farming and raiding, and the gear is still 2D.

>>713830068
Paywall implies not possible without paying. Its pay 2 skip the grinds.

>>713833993
Dragonflight was great. The bad expansions were BFA and Shadowlands.

>>713833537
He is getting made fun of though? That's a very broad question. I chalk it up to snowflake culture, all of those retarded kids we made fun of back in the day growing up and now crying and throwing hissy fits whenever you want to laugh at current retards (this is why we don't have cringe threads anymore) , etc. if the thread wasn't about to die I could explain it more thoroughly

>>713834124
>Dragonflight was great.
Disagree. It's just an extension of the same gameplay loop WoW has had since BfA.
