WoWchads... I'm thinking we're back.

I'm not going back to WoW unless my house can have a secret dungeon where I can tickle torture night elf women

This will attract a few hundred tumblrina whales then die out after 1-2 years. Especially since ugc players like the challenge of using free content to decorate, and there's fuckloads of it in this feature.

it really sucks that XIV is stuck on the legacy of launch XIV being a fucking PS3 game. people are too invested in the game for SE to just bin it and build a new game from the ground up to not have all sorts of problems and limitations.

>HORDE KEEP MOVING

So it is just instanced housing? Games like FF14 or archeage the housing is much better because it's actually finite and in the world.

I don't care about a house if I don't want to live in the world it exists in

>>715746556
FF14 is the same thing as this by the sounds of it.

>>715746556
Blizz literally said they'll make more neighborhoods if need be, implying they're not instanced.

>>715746746
Its not instanced houses, more like instanced neighborhoods

>>715746263
Attracting whales for two years is more than enough time to make a new thing that will attract 2 more years of whales.

Same reason this board shits on any and every game, retard.

This is bad news for xiv, especially since they just revealed this absolutely disgusting genocide apologist conquistador outfit today... Gamers aren't going to take this laying down, xiv has to be more like WoW and do better for BIPOC folks.

>>715745970 (OP)
Oh wow it only took them 21 years. I can’t begin to explain how many fucks I don’t give.

>>715746872
This. I actually am genuinely optimistic given what we've seen so far, but at the end of the day this is still modern Blizzard. We've been promised things before.

People really caring about in-game housing instead of their own real life housing?

I can't believe any of you faggots still cares about MMOs in any capacity.

99% of the playerbase doesnt care and the 1% that does will just make what are essentially ERP crack dens

>>715747048
Its normal for that journo, just look at his backlog of articles

>>715746218
Pretty much meant to cater to the Moonguard populace.

>>715747106
The mods on the official forum closed the Bluesky campaign thread
lol

>>715746817
Which is what Ff14 has, I'm pretty sure they have 50 houses each which is the number listed for WoW in this article.

Neighborhoods don't work. Nobody uses them.
People will just stay in their houses and hold events and stuff there.

Not sure why western players don't really do the neighborhood thing since it's a good idea.

>>715745970 (OP)
first the transmog system and now the housing system? Why is blizzard making better calls then SE? is ff14 even worth stayin subbed for anymore?

Okay lets see this player housing in action

Does wow have emotes yet or are wow players going to stand around t-posing while a Tauren occasionally scratches his ass

>>715745970 (OP)
It's not exactly impressive considering they waited over a decade for everyone else to actually fumble through housing and are now cherry picking what works and what doesn't.
I'm trying not to get too hyped because Blizzard's big things always release in an absolute state but it does look neat.

My experience with housing in these games is that the idea is better than the reality. It's fun to imagine having a nice house and inviting people over but in practice it doesn't have that feel.

>>715747634
Too bad the game is shit. Housing was actually pretty good in ESO

>>715747678
>Does wow have emotes
They added a lean emote in 11.2 and WoW players are acting like it's unprecedented ground in MMOs.

WoW should have been getting one permanent progression system every expansion. Or at least SOMETHING permanent. I think we are finally heading this way. Dragonflight left dragon riding, the current expansion is hopefully leaving delves, next expansion will give housing.

>>715747106
>Japan having zero reverence for real world politics
Shocking

>>715747634
>please sub to actually have enough spaces to decorate properly goy :)

>>715747713
nah, the game is amazing and the housing system complements it quite well

>>715747730
I would shit on WoW anyday, but I think they added Dragon Riding to every flying mount the game has, so now you can do it anywhere anytime.

>>715747532
Only if that were remotely true.

>>715747730
They wasted so much time on expansion limited features. Ion said something about how they recognized that and will try to avoid it in the future so maybe.

>>715746398
XIV's actual problem is being published by SE. Tencent is even remaking the entire game in a different engine because even the chinks know XIV's engine is beyond salvation.

Name 1 game that wouldn't be better or the same without customisable player housing.

>>715747532
QRD?

>>715745970 (OP)
That's great. Unfortunately, the game still looks like puke and the world is raped beyond salvation after Shadowlands, so it's putting lipstick on a pig. A stinking, rotting, quadruple amputee pig.

Nobody cares about that shit. It’s a m+ skinner box

>>715747532
Moonguard's degeneracy started after when real ID was implemented, not before it silly billy.

>>715745970 (OP)
Both are garbage and i prefer ESO housing and my mushroom house at Vvardenfel.

>>715747749
You dont even need to sub, but the house rotation is ass, who got the free Summerset castle years ago got literally the 2nd best house in game even for RP content and clan shit

>>715747854
Skyrim. Hearthfire DLC was a waste of money, even your wife tells you how stupid it is to build a house in the middle of nowhere (moments before getting kidnapped by yet another radiant quest).

Finally somewhere private to get my diaper changed

>>715748108
Hearthfire was rushed because the content of that was going to be packed with the internal jam they made, but the retarded PS3 hardware was giving more headaches than results, and hearthfire came to be off a cut DLC sized area Craglorn and Eastern Blackreach
Bethesda having problems with sony was why they went to microsoft, Xbox is literally a PC and it isnt a hardware hell to deal like Sony, even Nintendo is literally a linux these days.

>>715746984
This. One of my friends was bitching about the housing in XIV with auto-demolition, no availability, ect. So I showed him the DQX housing system with literally thousands of wards and no demolition. His exact response was "I've never been more convinced that FFXIV housing shortage is a scam to keep people subbed then I am now."

Every TES game is like that. But hey, at least TESVI will also completely ruin TESO's lore.

>>715745970 (OP)
Merde...

>>715745970 (OP)
Honestly, if they're at all clued in and not completely out of touch, Square could quite easily snap back.
The WoW system is basically the XIV system but instanced, with a z axis to its object positioning tool and the ability to scale objects (to some extent).
The scaling is probably never happening, but they could fairly easily do instanced housing and add a Z axis to objects (Burning Down The House plugin can already do that). And they have a broader catalogue of items and styles as is, with about 10 years of head start on WoW.

>>715748758
keep coping

>>715748076
I was on Moon Guard when it started and Goldshire was always like that. It was always a den of ERP and faggotry.

>implying they're not instanced.
that implies they are instanced though. funny watching wow kiddies hype themselves up though. imagine thinking player housing wouldnt be instanced in WoW, the game about instanced everything.

dude fuckin WoW peak shit rn fr fr shits gonna be so cash money on the fuckin dollar yall aint no lie senpaitachi
player housing gonna be litty as FUARK just like the WoD shattrath raid

Once you start noticing that these games journalists are western industry orbiters you'll start to notice that they almost never have anything positive to say about any game from the east that's competing with a western game.

Why would they need to make more neighborhoods if it's all instanced? Think retard.

I cant think of a reason for an old or a new player to be interested in this stuff besides the consumer brainrot forcing them to buy anything and everything they are asked to buy.

>>715747106
I'm someone who is offended by this armor. I speak on behalf of myself when I say this, the conquistador themed sets are extremely insensitive and racist.

I was just watching a FF9 playthrough. The new gearsets do not match the designs in FF9 despite that game being a big inspiration for Alexandria and the other recent gearsets that were released.

Since the preview was released, I noticed many of my peers announcing that they were canceling their subs and their service accounts. I myself have canceled my subscription. On a personal level, even if I do not engage or wear the armor:

1. It is in the new dungeon which will become part of the expert roulette, which means that seeing or receiving this gear is a lot more unavoidable than if it was part of side or raid content.

2. People who do not know of the historical connotations of this gear may be wearing the gear as glamour. This is, and has, been triggering for some people to see the preview picture alone. Allowing this ingame will contribute to an in-game culture of casual racism, alienating even further sections of the playerbase from trying or continuing to play the game, as they are reminded that their lives and history in reality do not matter in the fantasy-inspired game they play.

Please reconsider and redesign the sets. In conjunction with the sets being released in the Latin American themed expansion, this design choice contributes to harmful antagonistic sentiment that already exists in real life. Colonists are not 'fantasy'; this is tacit endorsement of colonization which sours the entire expansion of Dawntrail by its boldness.

If the choices made about this game continues in this direction, I will not be buying any future expansions.

>>715746398

>>715750063
how do you think they are going to make more neighbourhoods without using instance/phasing tech? The player will use a menu or walk through a portal to get to their neighborhood, the neighborhoods will each be in their own instance/phase. did you actually think player houes would be static with thousands of players per server? them "making more enighborhoods" is just going to be opening up new instances designated for new players.

gardening to produce materials you cant obtain by any other method. workshops to run submarines you cant use by any other method which are the best way to make gil in the game by far.

I wanted to make a neighborhood of me, my friends and a bunch of hoes. But then I realized the only girls left in wow are used up moms probably pushing their 50s now, and demented egirls that would sooner cut themselves in ritual worship over Denathrius than actually be a respectable person.
It's probably still possible if we make one of those shitter casual heroic raid guilds. I just don't want to deal with the horrors that would bring.

The fact that they started out their first announcement with "yes there will be shop items tied to housing" already made me wary.

>>715758649
Gonna be honest, I don't care about housing in either game. WoW is a shit game with a shit style.
In XIV... I dunno.. I just never felt the urge to get one. Maybe if they started making full aesthetic packages that allowed me to emulate ingame interior styles entirely.

>>715758649
The housing sucks and I've owned 3 different houses at different periods of time. it's a fucking ball and chain to keep you paying. Glorified rent. Because it's obscenely difficult to get one and then it weaponizes that against you to keep you monetarily invested.

>>715759445
>narrative
criticizing a dogshit system that benefits absolutely no one is not having a narrative. It's an indefensible system and you know that. They have the budget, and the manpower, and the capability to make more housing, or at least develop instanced. They choose not to, so they can make more money.

>>715745970 (OP)
I would fucking hope its better with Blizzard's version coming out 12 fucking years later. FFXIV has had that shit since 2013 it should be an easy slam dunk to make a better version.
Though that shit isn't even out yet so it doesn't matter.

>>715759552
Look, my point, and the fact of the matter is that if Square's intention was to connive to create a malicious system explicitly to keep people chained to the game when they want to leave, then making it so people can freely unsub for nine fucking months after a single incidents is pretty counter to that entire notion.
What you feel about the system is immaterial otherwise.

>>715745970 (OP)
Just 20 years too late. Damn. I remember when they announced housing during the WoW beta.

>>715759376

>>715759652
They literally only do that because they got backlash for not doing it early in the games lifespan. It's a PR choice, they would absolutely not do so if they didnt get insane backlash over it.

If it's a PR choice they could turn it back on after a month or two months, not nine.
And are you trying to tell me they aren't getting backlash now?
You are such a disingenuous little wretch. If you want to argue that we need instanced housing in the game so everyone can get one, that's fine and I agree. But if you need to be a manipulative little sissy queer about it for your activism to have any traction, then that's a tacit admission it has no traction of its own.

You type like Ben Shapiro.

>>715759652
Honestly they could consider it if they want to completely overhaul thier system for housing. thing is that Square are MASSIVE cheapskates and only a small part of the subcription money FFXIV makes actually goes towards it. infact FFXIV has been funding MOST of the games from Squareinx for awhile now.

>>715760232
I accept your concession, tumblrina.

>>715760297
I feel like that's pretty common for every game company that does more than one game. They all grab money from one game and put it into another.

>>715760512
Square doesn't want to give anyone instanced housing because keeping people chained to the game via their homes (regardless of grace periods being a thing) makes them vastly more money than allowing those people to unsub.

WoW is gay trannyslop that you shouldn't support at this point, but I will say WoW never needed housing because its combat is actually fun so fucking around in the world feels good. XIV needs housing because you need 100 things to avoid doing combat. Also 10 years too late, should've been a footnote feature in MoP at the latest.

QRDs? I vaguely know who zepla and mr. happy are from the images and the AI of him beating up the tranny, but that's it.

>>715765102
Things were better when the only "content creators" people knew were MTQ and Mr. Happy because of their youtube guides. I guess Larryzaur too for his Basically... videos.
Not sure when things changed, it started before Asmon so can't blame him really.

>>715746398
XIV's issue is its dev team being too scared to try anything.

>>715765354
zepla is a failed XIV streamer who had a crash-out during the omega ultimate because it was way too difficult for her and she was getting carried anyways, she went full-tilt into WoW and gacha to try and retain a similar audience (failed so far) and since then has taken to being a doomposter about XIV

mr happy is one of the older "content creators" for XIV who's known for a mix of being an obnoxious retard and making raid guides, he was chased off his datacenter (aether at the time iirc) for being a dipshit but the ability to keep his mouth shut and his head down plus large playerbase influxes means his negative reputation has pretty much vanished. the AI video comes from one of our own residents starting a very very very brief attempt of a "mr happy GODS vs sena bryer trannies" shitpost war

don't know who MTQ is

>>715765570
Don't forget Mr. Happy and the leaks with ShB/EW. Some of the funniest shit to happen in the game.

>>715765220
It helped nobody cared about XIV back then as well, but he's learned to roll with the punches as well.

I may actually go back to WoW. FFXIV is filled with faggot lefties. While WoW is filled with based libertarian chads.

What's the point of buying a virtual house? I always thought the idea was cool when I first heard of it, that being when it was introduced in Runescape.
Then I found out you just teleport into a blank void and you don't actually buy plots of land in the existing game world.
Doesn't really feel like you're a part of the game the way MMOs execute it. They're just weird trophy rooms for trophies nobody really did anything to earn because there is nothing in any MMO that requires any notable skill or ability. Just time and somebody else's money, I.E. the person who is paying for your real life rent and food.

>>715747106
I'm going to pretend to care just so I can get them changed because they look like shit.

>>715765625
oh goodness right i actually did forget all about that

back during stormblood and shadowbringers there was an actual, verifiable leaker called "blufever" among the XIV development team who successfully predicted a very large number of things about the expansions and upcoming updates, including blue mage's update (originally described as a support DPS by the leaker), viera and hrothgars' existence, machinist's rework, dancer as a ranged DPS, and where the plot was going

he was eventually announced as caught and he was probably either fired instantly at best or sued into the ground at worst. most likely he was a member of the art team or knew people that were in there, since he could reliably predict what jobs we were getting and what was coming in the plot but couldn't go into fine details and often got their placement wrong, like not knowing blue mage would be a "limited" job. mr happy was very, very loud in his announcement of blufever's identification and his role in it and pledged total allegiance to rooting out any future leakers, all in attempt to get into yoshida's good graces and become a more official part of the game's staff

>>715765354
Mr happy got HOT

>>715745970 (OP)
I liked BDOs housing concept the most of any MMO housing system. For those who don't know how it works there are buildings all over the main or side streets of cities and in the wild that you can buy. You can visit if the owner has it public and each version of the building can be loaded live after touching the door with its main shortfalls being that this largely only lets you change the interiors. Something like BDOs implementation with some minor tweaks would be my ideal
>Plots in cities and in far away wild zones

WoW has its own limitations like being unable to grant you more than 16 bag slots in your main bag and no more than extra four bags for your additional bag space. Those are issues hardcoded into the game that the devs cannot solve in any way. The problem of FFXIV is that it has many more such issues and they affect more things than just how much inventory space you can dedicate to a single character. In fact, I am willing to believe that WoW housing in its vanilla state will be better than FFXIV housing, but the usage of mod tools like Makeplace and Burning Down The House definitely elevates it far beyond anything that WoW could muster via clipping of items into one another to produce completely different things.

>>715751436
>morrowtranny resorts to shitbride's wife baby's first fanfic

This is neat, but I'd rather just have a full package of Amaurotine furniture, doors, stairs, pillars, rugs, lofts, benches, beds, etc.

>>715768936
bonus points that the devs don't give a fuck about and even softly encourage clipping things into eachother if it gives a cool result

>>715769967
Which is why they should really add a Z-axis officially already.

>>715770059
Imo they should do far more than that and officiate all the features that BDTH and Makeplace client offers. Allow you to preview your housing features in a mockup style test-area, enable the ability to save and load loadouts of furniture and housing items and unlock and decouple attachment requirements and just let people place things wherever the fuck they want them instead of having to spent 30 minutes loft raising something if you don't want to use the mods to do it.

>>715755687
Nobody uses syncshells in FFXIV because of how easy it is to flashbang you with junk crash mods. I could do it to people even with mods that weren't designed for it, just outdated older stuff.

>>715773308
Then it does not apply to you. I have a house too, but a rather prevalent mentality among irl richfaggots is that it's not enough for them to be well off, everyone else should also be worse off so that they would feel mighty and fulfilled by thinking themselves as "superior beings" compared to them. The desire for others not to own houses is a clear reflection of that.

>>715773518
I don't understand that sentiment. Those people are strange. It's not even hard to get a house in xiv unless you're overly particular about location. Mine is in foundation and I love it.

When this is over we'll probably wont see Wuk lamat for a VERY long time if ever, It is officially regarded as FFXIV "Warlords of Draenor" from how botched the entire expac pacing and content issues are.

>Literally just precise placement options and no restrictions on where you can place shit, at most any interactable prop shows you if it'll be interactable or not due to being blocked by something else but you can still place it
It's that fucking easy to make a good housing system yet for some reason nearly every single fucking housing system decides to implement retarded restrictions everywhere which just makes everything look worse.
And I still don't fucking understand why they do this shit, at least if the housing has some gameplay purposes like being an actual base that can be raided and has to be defended or someshit then yeah sure I get restrictions for the sake of not making a base that can cheese all those raids by itself but why the fuck do they put any restrictions when it's purely fucking decorative?
I really enjoyed building in ESO because of a lack of any limitations, on the other hand in FFXIV (even ignoring the fact that I could only get a small space to decorate in form of an apartment because I'm not going to be paying for sub just to keep my digital house from being deleted) I feel like anything nice I've built wasn't because of the tools provided but despite of them.

It really is a shame XIV's housing is as bad as it is, from the mandatory sub to keep a house to the extremely limited decoration space. Both things that have been solved in MMOs far, far older than it like Rift and Everquest 2 as examples.

What's the point of housing in an MMO?
Isn't the point of an MMO is for everyone to play together?
If you want to afk or idle, just go sit somewhere, who cares, the fuck?

>>715779338
You play together by showing off what you've built to other players, use the housing as a group/guild hangout spot and incentivize further trading by making decorations need to be crafted or as specific drops, it's a perfect fit for an MMO.

>>715746940
>I cant fucking wait for azshara and westfall to have stripmalls in it. Maybe we can get low income housing in shitholes like deadwind pass and duskwood.
Low income housing would obviously be in the barrens hordecuck.

In fact, it was the ONLY good thing about that game.

Deco space is really only limiting outdoors. Indoor limits are pretty generous

>>715779701
That is why almost any detailed decoration has walled off rooms?

wowo housing is garbage and players can exclude people from entering their houses. it will never be better than FFXIV's housing

>>715746556
This is a load of shit
Wards are still instances, they're just limited in number

>x continues beating y in a promised imaginary scenario that hasn't been realized yet

>>715779957
Because they overuse items to create extrnely elaborate rooms. If you're decorating your house "normally" then you won't have issues.

The only good player housing was Ultima Online.

>>715768936

pretty sure they already showed that's built in for their housing

Even MMOs from the nineties had housing.

Bro if you play wow (or any blizzard game, really) in 2025 then you're a hopeless unsalvageable idiot.
Move on, there's many other games to play. Don't be stuck in the past.

>>715781682
>Don't be stuck in the past.
you'd have a point if you were talking about the batch of "classics" they're doing but modern wow keeps making new content.

>>715745970 (OP)
Bullshit. No one of the wow fags will appreciate this feature because everyone can have a house and there is even no need to come back every few days because it will never be gone after some time.

It's another slop feature for retards who don't know what housing is at all.

>>715745970 (OP)
Ultima Online mogs them all seven years before WoW launched.

Non-instanced player housing is instant soul

I hate larpers. Ultima Online's world was fucking empty to accomodate people placing houses wherever they wanted, this shit wouldn't fly in any game nowadays. Also because of this, the world was very immersion-breaking because it's just forests, mountains and people's houses everywhere with their shitty decorations, all with different clashing styles, in places that make no sense.
Picrel, the only UO housing you've seen.

maybe in small and medium houses, you can hit the cap pretty easily in a large

>>715778594
>It is officially regarded as FFXIV "Warlords of Draenor" from how botched the entire expac pacing and content issues are.
that's retarded though
the content is great and there's more of it than in any expansion except maybe stormblood
whereas WoD's problem is they just stopped adding content two patches in, and the patch between the second patch and the expansion launch just added selfie cams and twitter integration

>>715778594
the only reason wow recovered from wod, bfa and shadowlands was because people told blizzard that shit was trash and unsubbed instead of calling everyone who complained about the game barry and giving yoshida money to keep their virtual dollhouse
and the biggest problems with xiv are all fundamental issues like job design, content cadence and rewards, and how they handled DC travel

>>715779248
>>715779701
At least they're jacking up the furniture limits. not sure by how much, but we'll see in the next live letter

>>715747634
I wish WoW was getting housing options like ESO instead of neighborhoods. I like how there's all sorts of different houses all over the world.

If you really think it wont be instances I got a bridge-game to sell you. Don't you think after 15 years you should know better?

>>715786697
of course it will instances, do you really want to be loading the houses of every other player on the server?
putting it in instances gives a lot more freedom to have your housing be as large, as deviant, as you like.

>>715787176
Would I prefer soul and mechanics that promote emerging gameplay? Yes, yes I would.

Whatever babble you say isn't the reason it will be instances. The reason is: Its easier to do it that way.

>>715787293
retard

Instanced housing has been around for over 20 years, though. Why are people talking about housing in FF14 and WoW, when they are 20 years behind everyone else?

>>715784326
There was nothing wrong with any of that, that's what fucking EARTH looks like you belligerent basement sow. What the fuck did you expect some abstract gigahigh fantasy shit like Planescape?

i have no interest in building a house in a shit game with

and i wont!!! haha!

It’s always funny how shitposters know nothing about the game and when someone does know about the game replies to them they just stop replying. Honestly the only thing wrong is that we don’t get a normal raid in OC. So far we gotten OC, chaotic, savages, extremes, SPACE, about to get deep dungeon
variant/criterion dungeon, and later on getting blu mage and beast master. We getting way more stuff than fucking Ew but these retards acting like we got nothing. Probably will get some nigger saying x content doesn’t matter and that just retarded

PS3 support ended nearly a decade ago. Holy shit and I thought the WoW bros coping that their game is still good were slow.

>>715791619
doesn't change the fact it's a PS3 game built on defective spaghetti code and ran by retards

would it kill blizz to make the game more focused on open world stuff

rape and murder anyone who participates in M+

>>715791558
>Honestly the only thing wrong is that we don’t get a normal raid in OC.
I agree.
And I get their reasoning for it beyond the "le resources". But their implementation in general was just very confused.
>We want to make this more like Baldesion arsenal, which was harder, had one mode and required special means to get inside
>Because we wanted to draw people together inside of the game that might otherwise not play with each other, and so create organic raids
>But also there's a 3 rez limit after which you're out, and if the party wipes, they're all out. And it has body checks, so there's plenty of ways for the party to wipe.
>Oh, and we're also going to lock Triple Triad cards and Occult Records behind it, which makes it seem like it's content that we want anyone to casually clear without too much of a hassle.... but it isn't. It requires coordination and punishes you severely
Like two teams were working on two entirely different things and then they mashed it together at the end. I'm not raging about it, but it is puzzling. I'm of the belief that 7.45 will have a new raid as well, just like Bozja did in 5.45, and this one would have a normal mode. And obviously 5.55 will have one since it brings a whole new zone.
>So far we gotten OC, chaotic, savages, extremes, SPACE, about to get deep dungeon
>variant/criterion dungeon, and later on getting blu mage and beast master. We getting way more stuff than fucking Ew but these retards acting like we got nothing. Probably will get some nigger saying x content doesn’t matter and that just retarded
Yeah, 7.1 was a bit of a lull (like every x.1, might I add) because it gave the same very little we usually get, and then one extra fight in chaotic. But we seem to be going down the rollercoaster now. Preferably, I would have liked to get a variant in 7.3x, as I feel there is plenty of space for one, with the fact that we're not getting any updates to OC, other than a new relic step. But I'm not broken up over it.

>>715747376
it's going to kill moonguard and the other rp servers. clique bullshit will get even worse when everyone sits in their private house instance all day

>>715792030
-I do hope we get at least two variants, though. One in 7.4x and another in 7.5x. Furthermore, while I can respect that they're adding a whole new zone for Cosmic Exploration with every patch alongside rewards. That's undeniably more than they did for Ishgard Restoration.
I feel like it's effort that they could have probably spared a little to add an extra Occult Crescent zone instead. I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth, but I feel like Cosmic Exploration is far too niche a content type to warrant getting like.. double the entries of a foray, which traditionally draws in much more people. If I had been planning out these updates, I'd have made one star less for Cosmic Exploration and added a third zone to Occult Crescent at least. I really wonder why they decided to go full hog on one zone in 7.2x (Sinus Ardorum), a second in 7.3x (Phaenna), a third in 7.4 (?) and a fourth in 7.5 (??). Some of that development could've been better spent, just by removing one of these stars.
Also, I hope they're wise this time and land the goal they failed to with Island Sanctuary (as an instanced island everyone got one of that worked just fine) and make Cosmic Exploration culminate in housing in these four areas before expanding it to the rest of the game. They have the means to make instanced areas unique to each player like the island, they have the perfect story setup in that Cosmic Exploration is about making places habitable, and there's also the fact that Ishgard Restoration, which is echoes, resulted in a housing district. Do something with that setup, Square.
>Probably will get some nigger saying x content doesn’t matter and that just retarded
"I don't like it. Therefore it's not content. Because I don't like it and it's not content, that also means it's lazy and had no work put into it. Because the amount of effort put into a feature is contingent on whether I like it."

sorry... we have new m+ season (4 current dungeons and 4 old dungeons you don't like)
prease look forward to it
