I am glad happy is trying to be positive, but this does not reflect the situation of a normal player.

Forked Tower being more raider slop damaged the game more than any amount of Wuk, missing QoL or Kate-Wokeisms could have ever done. "More stressful combat" is the worst thing Yoshida could have ever decreed.

I was constantly told that the plot contrivances and blatant plot holes in endwalker were actually not contrivances or holes at all, and that the overall quality of the entire expansion was actually good.
Now that we're finally seeing just how far CBU3 can fall, everyone now shits on EW
>I knew it was shit
>everyone knew it was shit
>only a few accepted that it was shit
>game became shittier with DT
>game still has dicksuckers with DT
>characters like Zero were literally just early warning signs
>early warning signs ignored
>content drying up
>live letter the team finally admits to budget constraints
The latter half of EW was so fucking egregious along with the fucking retcon of how the final days happened in DT that I feel fucking insulted for even trying to make sense of it.
The content side of it is just as bad, fucking variant dungeons aren't coming back because ???????, we have chaotic AR because ??????? (which died already), the newest AR series is more the same and the lv100 dungeons are more the same as well, now we have to face a possibility that content patches can take 6+ months to be deployed, but the content either doesn't change or fucking shrinks? Fuck off.

I knew the story was quickly going to turn the shit when they did a liveletter a few weeks after EW launch and explained that elidibus, lahabrea and emet coincidentally found a crack to the rift and jumped through it right before the sundering happened to explain why they're unsundered and then banri oda passed yoshi a message to relay to everyone to not get too hung up on the lore going forward because making sure everything makes sense and fits into the lore is too much work

agreed, wish they didn't answer because their explanation cheapened it especially when it's given as a q&a answer. But I guess EW patches were all about removing any mystery from everything with how they just blasted through as many lingering plot threads as they could

I regret to inform you all that that doomer YouTuber (who uses Athena as an avatar and sn ai female voice) that's been spammed in people's recommended lately is in deed ran by a Zodiark Trancer. We also know Trancers viewbot as they were exposed as doing so on their previous anti Venat channel years ago

>it's not important
when the entire point of the sundering is that the entire race of ancients was essentially forcibly devolved (this is in game lore btw, it was meant to devolve the ENTIRETY of the ancients) in order to stimulate a new branch of evolution to avoid the negatives of dynamis, it's quite fucking important. These very retards are the main antagonist of the entire story up to this point and for some reason the ONLY faction of them that survived the sundering were Emet and his circlejerk that just want to bring zodiark back, as opposed to Venat's group that wanted to do an "evolutionary reset"
>is a good answer
no, it's just avoiding a semi-decent question.
>>716028952
>making sure everything makes sense and fits into the lore is too much work
it doesn't have to make PERFECT sense, it just has to not be filled giant gaps of information or lunacy in general. The entire shit with fagdaniel getting permakilled in the mothercrystal was a plot contrivance because asagi doesn't have the aetherial prowess to kill him, nor does he actually have a reason aside from just being an asshole.
fuck, don't even get me started on the whole dynamis shit

it's not important as in it adds literally nothing to the story to know how or why they escaped the sundering and when the player can make reasonable guesses on their own over such information if they really insist on every possible stone being turned

maybe? but I would assume the question of "if the sundering was done to the entire ancient race, why are these retards not sundered?" is a valid question when you come across the cutscene of 'Thou must Live, Die, and Know', otherwise the fact that ancients are still around to fuck with the WoL are only there because "they just are". besides, I figure it would be a more interesting point if Emet was a mortal and just got his old memories back, giving him an impetus to start gathering power to return back to an ancient while we attempt to play the foil with only the word of Hydaelyn telling us that it's bad (which could then be explained with the story in ShB)

This is actually true though. They came up with an origin/reason for most of the lore started in 1.0/ARR and it was "Ancients"

I like Dawntrail.

The story was meh at first but it's gotten better recently.
I like the jobs I play.
I like the dungeons.
I like the trials, I like the extremes.
I like the normal raids, I like savage.
I like the first Alliance Raid
I liked FRU.
I liked CAR.
I like Cosmic Exploration.
I enjoyed Occult Crescent for the most part but there are some glaring flaws that need to be addressed.
And I'm looking for what 7.3 brings.

>BLM doomers getting btfo as the rework of their job skyrocketed it in popularity

The job reworks have overall improved the player experience with the jobs, and people who claim otherwise either don't play the game at a high enough level to have a nuanced and knowledgeable take or they are just gatekeeping since true competition scare them.

Fuck off. I agree with the person you're responding to, and I even think that the BLM changes were reasonable, but you're retarded if you think that the lobotomy they gave SMN and the overall retardification of class design 'improves player experience'.

New SMN is also really popular. MNK rework too made the job more liked. VPR is one of the most popular melee jobs right now

The reworks are unironically good

XIV is often praised simply because it was improved at the right time (the transition from 1.0 to ARR) and was one of the few mmorpgs with a strong focus on story. These aspects, along with the cult-like behavior of the community, created a reputation that does not reflect reality. Similarly the narrative that the community is especially kind and positive "xD" persisted for a long time, even though it is in truth one of the most toxic, witch hunting and hostile communities in the entire mmo genre lmao

it is also important not to forget how critics were systematically silenced by the community in a manner reminiscent of gestapo tactics all the way through to Endwalker.

Imho xiv is a prime example of how a community can slide into authoritarian thinking, ignore reality and put a game and its devs on a near godlike pedestal.

Popularity isn't a good metric for success in a game with an ever dwindling playerbase. The reworks aren't keeping players interested or attracting new ones, they just appeal to the type of person who doesn't care about gameplay.

I don't play BLM but I sincerely hope your favorite job gets reworked into boring dogshit but you aren't allowed to get mad about it because it's more popular now :)
Who gives a shit about popularity; a job rework isn't going to bring in new players, just rearrange existing ones

I play PLD, my job got reworked twice during EW and I went from being a pink parsing PLD to being a...pink parsing PLD because I was perfectly ok with the reworks.

Most people don't even know they stealth nerfed clemency during EW launch.
