Yup, it's FFXIV alright

>>718692918 (OP)
I can't think of a game company in history that has managed to destroy itself so utterly and effectively as Square Enix.

>>718693675
it's equivalent to when CSGO stopped letting servers spoof items, trannies would use software that 'privately' synced their custom models/animations for nudity or sex and now it's banned

Qrd as a nontranny

holy /xivg/ is in meltdown mode
>>718693765
Ubisoft

>>718693675
Theres modding for FF14 however usually you only see your own character being modded. Mare basically links you with other players that also use Mare, both of you see each other with the mods you have applied on your character.

This requires a server to synchronize players. Modding turned FF14 basically into Second Life.

>>718693675
FFXIV had a mod that let players dress-up their characters with obnoxious slutty cosmetics that aren't in the game. Full on tattoos, edgy hairstyles, bigger body proportions, nudity, etc.

The mod devs just got a cease and desist

>>718693675
FFXIV has mods that allow you to apply visual mods to your game (i.e. change how characters look, change animations, edit appearances, nude mods, etc.) Mare is another mod that lets you share codes with other people so that your games can be synced and you'll see their character how it's modded in their game and vice-versa. People use it for Second Life-esqe stuff. Squeenix sent a C&D to kill Mare so that it can't be used. But there's forks and variants so it's not actually killing the Second Life stuff.

Absolutely based, this will cut down on 99% of the tranny population

>>718693675
QOS tattoo mods got destroyed. This is obviously a huge part of white tranny culture in the United States, and we must find a way to restore the servers ASAP.

No, having erping trannies infesting the game is what hurt ffxiv, them leaving is a MASSIVE net positive

WHAT DID THE THINGY DO.
EXPLAIN WHY TRANNY MELTY.

Kek i guess they realized its hurting their bottom line

holy moly

>>718693332
you just realized this now?

>>718693415
That is so fucking wrong. They might not be paying for outfits since they mod all their porn in, but they definitely pay for the ability to fucking talk. In fact, a lot of them just pay for the skips and exp boosts just to have access to new areas without having to play the game.

This is a stupid thing for SE to do as the game fucking dies, but I imagine it was out of their jurisdiction. Probably got heat from visa/mastercard/etc. It was such an open secret kind of deal, and it raked so much money for SE I don't see them doing it for any other reason.
Fuck, maybe SE isn't the one pursuing legal action at all, and the powers that be just skipped the middleman. It'd hurt both gooners and a foreign company in one move.

>>718694338
Burn out the bad!

>>718694392
it let you see the other players' futa cocks and naked breast mods on your client while playing the game

>>718693675
MARE lets people make custom models and textures for XIV

this addon in the OP lets people sync those custom models and textures so they see each other's skins.

it's a sex thing

>>718694539
>>718694551
Ah, so no easy tranny larping.
HA.

>>718694475
No it’s not, gooners use discord and are 1000% f2p fags

>>718693167
retard

>>718694617
Also the guy who made the mods started to accept donations from people, thus he was making money off it and bought a house

Square was fine with letting things go on, but now he's infringing for profit.

>DT will have fewer players than 3.1
>DT has patches that take longer than 3.1

Holy fuck lmao Dawntrail is a biblical failure on every front

>>718694635
F2Ps can't even own houses, much less organize the whorehouse parties those dumbasses are constantly spending their time on.

do any of their mods fix the ugly plastic body look?

Sex pests btfo

>>718694475
The erp shit is hurting their brand image and costing them money. I unsubbed in DT not entirely because of gooners, but they are a legitimate reason why. I don’t want to engage with them.

This update makes me want to come back, and I probably will after silksong.

>>718693848
More housing plots on worlds that somehow stay congested with 200k (formerly 300k) active players

>>718694767
Most people who have a sub don’t own a house

The fags that ran Mare would ban you if they didn’t like your mods. Mainly cunny stuff, so didn’t use that server anyway.

>>718694789
Yes

>>718694760

probably because they were getting paid for it, and they had the audacity to ask for handouts while not offering any refunds lmao get rekt retard

There's nothing to comeback to is the real issue. XIV has been a corpse since post-EW

>>718692918 (OP)
I already genocided the freaks myself

>>718694829
No, no. I agree with that, but the game is definitely not in a position to do this right now as it's been bleeding players for months.
Maybe they should've acted on it when the erps started putting fucking billboards in the highway to advertise their "parties" like a year ago.
The timing being so off for me is what makes me thing there's a third party involved, even through SE or around them.

I enjoy watching XIV crash and burn.
XIV died after 6.0

>>718695012
>XIV has been a corpse…when mare took off
You’re actually proving my point

So this could really be huge because Mare wasnt a small Plogon its was fucking huge and with this he Numbers could actually go under 200.000 Subs and that would mean FFXIV is dead

>>718694940
4.1 was good, albeitever. Eureka got delayed...that was kinda it. Didn't take an extra month, alliance was great, UCOB on content was peak XIV raiding.

>>718695012
>still trying to be a doomer during total erp genocide

back to the marecord with you

>>718695091
Mare took off in SHB.

>>718695034
I am telling you I disagree because I am LITERALLY one of those players that was bled off in DT and will not almost certainly resub

Mmos are first and foremost social games, and the social aspect is about to be improved tenfold for any normal human being when the gooners are removed

Theres like 100-200k Mare users

>>718695324
you arent getting your mod back bro, let it go lmao

>>718695324
No, it’s not, the gooners are a big reason for the decline. People always like to throw around “second life” like it wasn’t the same exact situation. Second Life was at its biggest BEFORE it became the sexual erp game.

>>718695326
sex with Kagami

>Dalamud down too
It's unironically over for XIV lol

>>718695251
People don't remember how comfy this game used to be before we got invaded by absolute freaks, who cares if the population declines if we're only losing erp gooners, pedophiles, trannies and various mentally ill sex pest perverts. This wont have any impact on the people who play the game as these gooner faggots literally did nothing except jack their floppy estrogen cocks off all day long.

No. The reason for the Decline is Dawntrail being total ass. That's it. The game peaked from Shadowbringers till Endwalker.

You're talking as if the game's nothing but gooners.
Other than the fucking shouts in big cities, the only way you'd be personally bothered by the gooners' ERP orgies is if you were personally walking into their clubs and such. If all the gooners were gone tomorrow as I logged back in, the same lukewarm DT experience would be waiting for me. DT isn't shit because of a segment of the community. Wake up.

money aint worth the brand damage. it's like scat faggots who say they pay thousands for a shit diaper furry doodle and artists will still refuse because they dont wanna draw scat. gooners can claim how theyre paying customers all they want but it wont change the fact theyre a huge eyesore and it seems square enix has noticed this as well.

>>718696262
>You're talking as if the game's nothing but gooners.
It is, nobody plays FXIV without mods

You have like 6 hour qeues for any raid/dungeon if it's not prime time because most of the people just socialize and the cities will be bustling full

>>718695684
No way they're actually retarded enough to kill dalamud as a whole, I won't believe it until I see further proof. On a side note, the seethe from modtrannies is absolutely delicious....

you aren’t getting your mod back tranny, no matter how much you cry that the game is dead

lmao even

>>718696315
I am once again going to point out what LITERALLY killed second life as a chat client was erp, when you pander to weirdos you severely limit your ceiling.

>>718696263
I had it happen to me yesterday in FL. VPR and PLD are irrelevant.

>>718696269
It literally is a speed hack you retard, you cannot "simulate" low ping which is why when I use it with my already low ping I can triple weave and do things which aren't possible like double weaving pots

>>718696262
No idea about NA but before DT released you could check LFG and it was full pf spcial events, discos, night ckibs advertising and you knew whoever went there was Modbeast maxxing.

Yikes, this game is unplayable without simple tweaks and penumbra

>>718695684
It's one thing to go after Mare because that is used by weird gooner freaks but EVERYONE who has played FFXIV uses Dalamud. I'm not even a big raider and I installed it because of the QoL mods you can use. I wonder what happened for this purge of mods.

>>718696389
Dalamud is used by cheaters and botters the most, SE will lose their entire chink account buying playerbase too if they do this, kek.

As an ancient one, I will be fine.

it was already like this in 2014

>>718696357
A certain group will try to revise history but the modshit came directly with the wowfag exodus around 2019

Dalamud is next

the sheer amount of mental illness in MMO communities frightens me

>>718692918 (OP)
This seems like a really bad idea. They just reported weak financials, have their lowest player count, and now they wanna shut down something with over 200k users when their player base is in the 400s?

>>718694475
No square just does really stupid shit. They have a habit and track record of it. This is a bad idea for them. Shutting this down is only going to cost them a large chunk of dollars. I promise anyone you see saying they'll come back if you can find those people are not coming back and staying. Modders have literally kept this company afloat. Dawntrail has been their weakest player base in a long time.

Is Noclippy getting kill la killed too?

Also make sure to use your stupid 4day login to pickup the mediocre moonfire faire stuff since September won't have shit.

>>718696315
But the money was worth the brand damage to SE for fucking years. How that they're at an all time low they decide to finally clean up their act?
I want to be clear I also agree this is something that needed to be done, but it had to have been done ages ago. It's retarded from a business point of view to do it now, hence why I suspect there's another reason for SE to pull the trigger. Like for example, being pressured by payment processors. It's not like they don't depend on them or anything.
>>718696365
Fucker, I never once installed a single mod during all the time I spent on that game.
>>718696459
Yeah, those were all over the place in NE as well, but again, I just ignored them. There were also real LFG parties going on. I personally used that shit a lot, it's how I met everyone I played the game with through.

>>718696630
Would unironically kill half of the playerbase and we will never see a 9.0. Probably for the better at this point.

>>718696575
>it’s not a speed hack it’s QoL
You are a cheater and part of a loud vocal minority, like a tranny

>>718696140
I don't have a stake in this race but didn't FFXI have a boss that was literally unbeatable in the west because of ping issues? That's how Absolute Virtue was described to me, the devs made it impossible to beat the boss without using their single pre-approved strategy but that strategy was only possible when you were inside the data center and has almost 0 ping. It sounds very important to me

>tfw the only way to see older title screens was by using a Dalamud mod
RIP old Title Screens.

>>718696524
that doesn't make sense, if you don't install mare, you don't see them, why stop playing for something that isn't bothering you?

>>718696575

>>718693332
This is so important I've never even heard of Mare while regularly reading XIV threads. Fuck off.

You guys really want to make it funny?
Do anything in your power to hop into these side servers these people will create. Report their forks to git or Square, and slowly get them killed off like the bugs they are

obviously theyre looking into what is causing the slump in players and they ended up investigating modding. I know dawntrail being garbo is the main reason but SE would rather snoop elsewhere.

>>718696768
In an MMO, the virtual space a player inhabits is important.

When I click someone’s character, the virtual space is diminished if I see a mare code in your adventure plate. Because now I know my virtual space is being occupied by some modbeast horror that I cannot comprehend. It’s almost worse that I can’t see your degen ass, but knowing you’re there. It’s like a lovecraft cosmic horror.

>>718696965
>”our tranny mod was the best part of the game REE”

keep crying lmao

>>718695541
I mean given the decline in subs do you think killing what playerbase that's left is smart? I personally hate XIV and unsubbed after 7.0 but damn they actually have a low as fuck playerbase for a game making up nearly all of Squares revenue from their last report.

>tired of my 250 ping to some servers in tf2
>dl a thing to simulate low ping
>catch an immediate ban for cheating
Why do ffxiv queers insist this isnt cheating lol sorry you have dogshit ping, but that's just a fact of life, if you use a plugin to speed up your game it's in fact cheating. It doesn't even accurately "simulate" low ping as people who use it have a clear advantage over those who don't even if they have 15 ping which is probably the absolute lowest you can get without playing inside the server. Unlike real low ping, speedhackers aren't subject to the same traffic hiccups or lag either.

>>718694090
>QOS tattoo mods got destroyed
wtf this is literally indian genocide

>>718696947
That's fair, but most don't share your sentiment. You have to think outside the box a little bit here, the modernslop from Dawntrail is absolutely a direct symptom from what they've seen as being popular on the modding scene. The writing was on the walls.

why are gooners saying this game will die without mare when the game existed for 10+ years without plugins

>>718693675
Wow14 is so fucking ugly that niggas need to mod the game like it's a barbie bimbo to still look worse than any game with character creator.

>>718696740
Not to mention those long periods of DDOS that occurred thst just made the serves ass for anyone in not Japan.

>>718697258

It is unironically over lmao

>>718697134
XIV players guzzle Japanese cum like it's oxygen, bro. Just ignore them.

>>718697134
It’s really brutal in pvp because they can triple weave recuperate which gives them a massive advantage when focused over regular players

I remember when i played XIV that their mod policy was STFU and don't make huge fuss about it.
Im guessing the exact opposite happened.

>>718697289
6 years ago they still added casual content to the game. =)

>Game existed for ten years

Total tranny death.

>>718697258
because it was ever usable?

I wonder, does SE want to kill FF14?

>>718696740
I think Absolute Virtue was less of a ping problem (since the game was slow as fuck) but making sure that every player involved was actually awake enough to do their specific thing that would counter Absolute Virtue's bullshit as he cast it in an extremely long fight.
No one did it the right way for ages they just brute forced it for hours before they figured out what the fuck the devs were smoking.

>>718697289
The game is already dying, this is just another self inflicted wound to help it along.

>>718695304

Three years isn't exactly new, but marefaggotry definitely is hardly crucial. What is crucial is the Dalamud launcher. If they kill that, the game will die for sure.

>>718697258
No it won't.

>>718697323
>You think grown men need a specific mod to textfuck each other? This one just makes it nicer.
ERPing with text is absolutely dead. People require you to now use mare and and these weird animation addons to sync animations of your characters fucking.

they are getting their toys taken away so the game is now “dead” in their eyes

>>718697386
>Marefags are all new

I've been here since ARR and if not for modding I would have quit in SHB, game hasn't been good since SB

>Square-Enix banning coomer mods before doing anything about cheating players in PvP
Not based, and all they're doing is killing the already-dwindling player base even faster. Never gave a shit about Second Lifers or Mare Lamentorum, but Skewed Priorities™ doesn't even begin to cover this nonsense.

>>718697469
Dalamud is less relevant than mare, cheater mc cheaterton

>>718697449
I never like it over noclippy, tried both.

>>718697367
That's still the stance, the problem is retards like the Mare devs charging a subscription for their tools.
ACT gets around this by giving you 100% access to everything, the only thing a donation gets you is a few extra metrics on FFLogs

>>718697474
It brings me even greater joy to know these troons are gonna be inconvenienced just that extra minor bit.

>>718697134
because ff14's ping is entirely centralized around being japanese first, and DPS optimization requires either perfect ping or a plugin to double or even triple weave certain actions together like the Japs can. if you're anywhere else in the world unless you literally live right next to one of their servers, you are straight up gimped to the point of even enemy attacks being delayed to how you can react.
but even then, you used an actual speed hack that altered how the server responds to you and how other players interact with you straight up, whereas ff14 these plugins are "cheating" but not anywhere near the same bullshit.

>>718697258
Probably not, I assume the /v/ threads will still have the multiple bot spammers but now you'll see additional assmad mentally ill faggots fucking them up like >>718697042 now that their party is over.

>>718697548
Dalamud getting BTFO would solve a decent portion of cheating, the top 100 discord cliques still have their own clients so that’s not solved but it will help with random games and frontlines

May even get a troon discord like revival banned if they share the plugins in their discord

>>718692918 (OP)
Punishment for turning their faces away from Skyrim and Todd Howard

>>718697251
Yeah exactly, I've tried it out while on vacation and it's so much faster than my low ping it isnt even funny, the dogshit spaghetti code doesn't apply to noclippy like it does everyone else. It's 100% cheating and the thing that pisses me off the most about these faggots is their vehement denial of it not even that they're cheating.

>>718697469
Yep. Mare isn't the issue. Dalamud is an issue as everyone who isn't a sub 90 IQ uses it for various reasons. I don't know a single player who still plays that doesn't have Dalamud.

>>718697603
>roulette warriors commenting on optimization of any kind

fucking this, even /v/'s browntranny/pol/wokegoon nonsense is better than the sheer autism present in any given /vg/ thread

Why not ignore the cease and desist? They are sending it to an anonymouse discord user. They can't do anything.

I guess that's why mare randomly turned off last night
If square wants to kill their own game let them, I haven't subbed since ew anyway, the people I mare with have been paying for my sub

>>718697548

Since they guy took donations they have his iRl info.

>>718696549
This is why I am against extreme levels of customizable characters in online games. They went from typical character that fits the world around them to attention seeking vomit.

>>718697386
I'd feel worse for them if they weren't so histrionic and try to pretend everyone ERPs. Most players don't even sub outside of the launch of a new expansion

>>718697682
Yeah it’s amazing laughable, it’s the second highest form of cheating outside of the most blatant shit like no clip flying around and aim botting

>>718697289
Because they slowed down dev a lot, make a lot less content, had a really bad story expansion that is majority hated, post endwalker had a major content drought dye to 16 and dawntrail was in fact a disaster financially. You're talking about a different game. It lasted that long because it was good. It's been bad for nearly 4 years and was propped up by modders.

>>718697742
The retard put all his legal info online since he was making money off the addon.

>>718697742
>They are sending it to an anonymouse discord user.
Dude had all his real info tied to the github.

>>718697374
and for some reason jannies want to move all (((reoccurring))) video game discussion over there, excluding AI generals and nintendo games. It's very strange. I'd be more willing to use /vg/ if it wasn't a schizo's paradise. Every thread in there is cliquefags, schizos, to the point where it's unusable. The entire layout of /vg/ is disgusting, so sterilized. It's literally no fun allowed the board and that's what jannies want for this place. Any reoccurring discussion of a popular game MUST move to /vg/ for reasons that don't even make sense anymore when half of the site is fucking dead. I hate this fucking site, instead of moving to /vg/ I'm just going to stop using it if jannies keep deleting threads about video games on the video game board. Nobody wants to go that shithole. Many people from /vg/ are migrating to /v/ and setting up shop here becuase things are so bad over on /vg/. The entire thing is a fucking mess and the entire idea of having a "general" board is flawed to begin with. I'm tired of this stupid fucking site man and the retarded people who run it.

>>718697258
Every /vg/ thread has a state designated schizophrenic.
They all have the same exact writing style. If I were also schizophrenic, I would think it was the same guy.

This is also one of the more tame examples of that MARE users get up to.

>>718697850
Cry about it, even if they nuke Dalamud, XIVAlex will always be around and I will be able to triple weave. But only because I am really close to the data center, of course!

Absolutely based, you already had the best MMO models with the most fashion options but even that wasn't enough for the maretrannies, modbeasts and cheaters are why this game sucks (aside from dawntrail story reasons ofcourse)

>>718697548
Stay mad, you will NEVER have feast armor.

>>718697289

>>718692918 (OP)
another WoW killer bites the dust.

>>718697134
You can't triple weave and are at a straight dps loss and will lose fighting a JP player because this needs to be said that Square only cares about JP forums and performance. In 11 absolute virtue was unbeatable due to ping outside of Japan. This company has been doing this shit for 20 years.

>>718697917

>>718698137
What's wrong with jerking off?

>>718697701
Double your ping effectively gets added to the animation lock time cause it restarts after reporting your action to the server and getting a reply, for some reason
It just makes every action in the game insanely rubberbandy if your ping is over like 150ms and rather than changing how that works they just stripped a ton of buttons off of most jobs and reworked Ninja

>>718698137
Really bad samefag

>>718698005
LMAOOOO XIV customization is the most dogshit of any MMO today excluding WoW, the fuck are you on??

First based thing Yoship has done in years, now fire Kate and Hiro and I'll resub.

>>718697917
It's not /vg/. It is literally EVERY board that has a general or reoccuring thread. It is particularly bad on slower boards that go unmoderated where schizos will literally samefag dozens of slow moving threads for months, sometimes making up 90% of the posts in any particular thread. I wish I were making this up, but when you see janny delete it, over half the thread just evaporates because it was one guy spamming. The moderation has gotten worse. Slow boards are being left to die. Faster moving boards are being micromanaged and the schizo problem just grows worse as it's just a neverending game of whack a mole. The more jannies shut down regular discussion, they wind up creating more people that hate them thus leading to more schizos that just want to spite their guts and make everything as unenjoyable for everyone. This site is in a death spiral, there's no stopping it. Jannies didn't maintain the ship, they let it rot for years, and now they're trying to plug up every little hole while a dozen more new leaks pop up somewhere else. The ship is sinking...

I should see how the 14 general is reacting. They are nothing but goonbeasts,

Part of me wonders if Yoshi P isn't intentionally trying to kill XIV because he's tired of working on it. It's been over a decade at this point.

it's funny seeing promares and hatermares comments downvoted in reddit in the same thread, they are dividing the community

The wowfags swooping in to try and recruit the pissed off gooner trannies is a really funny self own

>>718692918 (OP)
tranny status? PURGED

>>718698187
Nothing inherently wrong with jerking off, but people who play video games generally are just trying to play the game and not jerk off at the same time. It's pretty hard to play a game and also jerk off. Keep that to yourself, nobody wants to hear about some tranny pulling their pud when they themselves are playing some fantasy game to get away from their shitty real life.

>>718697548
I started playing this recently and found frontlines a bit of a clusterfuck but somewhat fun, can you explain how I spot cheaters?

>>718698040
More than 200k users actually. Just for accuracy. Even if all those players aren't active now.

i dont care about mare, autoduty or rotation mods but holy fuck i will actually go back to WoW if they get rid of noClippy/Alex without fixing their abhorrent netcode

>>718698116
This is not a Square only issue btw, this is a Japanese dev thing. They all only care about JP and their skills at making good networking code is non-existant since they never have to care about long distances.

Being a FGCfag is misery, it took so much bullying and years of badgering to get them to use GGPO, a totally free open source library that's been used in NA dev to fix the exact problems shitty JP netcode has and they refused forever since it didn't affect japs.

>>718698321
They're probably trying to dwindle their playerbase to XI levels on purpose

My guess is that they have a new final fantasy mmo on the horizon

>>718698137

Purify now has a way too high cost attached to it and is barely worth it. The mindgame of using the skill is also completely gone, having low MP is even more of a death sentence now.

>mare synchronos is the heart of the game
Imagine being so delusional that you genuinely think this.

please respond to me next

The "hurr mmo social game" fags are beyond retarded, its almost like you niggers don't play the fucking game.

The game is INTRINSICALLY designed yo be a fucking singleplayer game. Most content is so simple there is 0 need to speak, even before Dalamud, people only ever used fucking guides to do any hardcore content which almost never requires a fucking static. The few times it does, its all contained in circlejerk discords aka NOT THE FUCKING GAME. There is no reason to engage at all, its all automated for you or you can literally just use bots. Where the fuck is the socialization? In the FCs where all retards do there is do shitty catty talks about the randos they do fucking roulettes with? Or you guys really fucking think the balance discord is the peak the game has to offer in terms of social output? WHERE the fuck is the game supposed to fit all the "social" shit? Nobody needs anything the game offers when discord exists, it's trivial to alt tab from the game, and you can play 80% of the fucking game half asleep.
Gos forbid people get into a fight blind and learn together, your guide bro??? We need to clear as a fresh prog party bro??? We will leave after any minor inconvenience after 2 minutes bro??? This has been a problem REGARDLESS of your shitty troongoon cope. The internet isn't what it used to be, MMOs are not fucking social games the way they used to be, move the fuck on. You can celebrate modders and xiv dying all you want, but dont pretend this impacts the actual fucking game when the game has always been made without the mod fags in mind,its a Japanese fucking company after all you demented brain drained Neanderthals.

Retards are even implying MMOs are even fucking relevant, as if a huge majority of the same crowd hasn't all jumped ship to gacha and just do their "socializing" outside of it where their dopamine can get even more fried than MMOs cause. Faggots.

I do think it genuinely is some kind of autism schizoid disorder, usually leading to some kind of obsession. People who spend their whole days obsessing over other "characters" in the thread, basing their entire lives on the drama that unfolds there. It's just people with no real hobbies or interests and they get off to this weird kind of parasocial relationship. It's not like the kind of parasocial where a guy donates $10 to a streamer so he can say his name, but it's probably not that different. They want (you)s, they are desparate for attention, and they will do whatever it takes to get it. They may not be donating money, but they are dedicating a lot of TIME to have their name mentioned and to become the center of discussion. For them it's not about the game or whatever the general is about. It's about hijacking the thread and making it about them and their nonsense. Histrionic disorder? narcissism? Is it the dark triad psychopath tendencies with multiple disorders in one? Sometimes it sure seems like that. Jannies are effectively powerless to do anything about them because bans roll off schizos like water. They're so easy to evade and there are even sites dedicated to just ban evading on 4chan now, it's gotten pretty bad.

On one hand I find it fascinating, but more often than not it's just disturbing that people live like this and devote their entire lives to being the thread "schizo". Do they have a say in the matter? Were they always destined to be some sort of schizoid junkyard dog? It's all so strange.

>>718698467
I've had raid teams break up over it. Everyone thought someone else was fucking up but playing with each person individually I realized we just had different pings and were not synced up. Sphere EX was fun with ice bridges and ping and ddos going on for a time. You literally needed to use a VPN to stabilize your connection or get shit performance.

mate, they're using someone else's product for some sort of porn underground railroad
imagine your mailbox being used as some sort of communal 18+ craigslist section, that's essentially what's happening here
you wouldn't be happy either

What the fuck did you expect would happen?

>150k Mare users

At minimum that means mod beasts are 15% of the population, though its probably more like 25-30%

i wonder if yoshi will make an official statement

>>718699269
Who cares? What makes it illegal? the code is theirs, they have their own server, it does not interfere or "attack" the game servers
>muh ToS

>>718699305
Mare isn't specificallty for porn, it's up to users to determined what they share.

>>718699145
These fucking "people" barely even leave their house, there is a complete disconnect from reality.They believe the internet is real life and laws don't akshully apply to them

>>718693675
Cumbrains mod the game like second life to turn it into a porn game
Naturally, other players don't see your mods because the mod only applies to your client
Mare is a tool that let you sync your mods with other players so they did see your mods

.webm related is mare in action

>>718693675
does anyone have the amaurot modbeast webm for this guy

>>718694338
This was so fucking funny to see in-game. No voiceover, just the sound of his foot steps from the laughing animation.

>>718699390
Sure, pornhub has SFW videos on it too.

>>718695930
Weird take. Of course they have an interest in something they play and a mod they use.

>>718698959
he was even bragging about how he just bought a house a couple days ago cus of the money he earned from donations

>>718698948
No not at all. It's mostly just people will speed hack the game to be able to make up for the abysmal ping Square has ignored for the entirety of the game. We have ping based combos in this game and you can't like buy better equipment or do something in game. You'd have to move to literal Japan.

>>718699430
To be fair you could already see this player was a degenerate, retarded tranny, he has the mentor crown

>>718699430

>>718699517
>You'd have to move to literal Japan.
Japanese also make heavy use of mods, especially noclippy. There are areas with dogshit net as well, everying outside of the major cities. They are also using splatoon/boss mods a lot.

>>718694247
they just send the visual mod IDs to you, it's not that data intensive

>>718699173
You missed real XIV by like 5 years at that point

>>718699173

There's no point to the game anymore then.

>completely rape what the game is intended to be
>outside of that shitty dance, all the gear has been introduced with fucking dawntrail

So, essentially this is all because the developer couldn't just release it anonymously and have people enjoy it, and instead had to attach their name to it and try and get money from it?

>>718699517
>You'd have to move to literal Japan.

It makes sense because you need a server with insane upload speeds which isn't cheap. But yeah.

>>718699625
Only gets nuked from orbit because they're pussies and are bending the knee. Imagine bethesda threatened to sue someone for making a mod and getting donations for it, the only difference is one is singleplayer and the other multiplayer

>>718699778
Go to discord you tranny, leave the game alone

>>718699907
Not at all, don't let any of these fucking people convince you otherwise either

If gooners went out and got laid once in a while they'd probably be less obsessed with sex, must be a lonely miserable existence to wake up every day just to beat your meat while the rest of us normal people aren't dopamine fried.

>>718697772

Of course its money related, I am not surprised. Also I'm not playing XIV either, I'm just here for chaos.

This game is unplayable after you get to experience YesAlready

I hope people kill themselves over this

Exact same way they got the Yuzu devs
This isn't breaking new ground, it's just retards being retards
Always hide your name, always hide your address, and always fork your shit

His Discord username was "Her Royal Floofness", that should tell you just about everything.

If Kate announced she was fired today it would be the best day ever

>>718699985
It should have been self hosted by players for other players instead of connecting to a main server, in a p2p fashion.

If you have to mod a game to enjoy it maybe it's actually really shit?

>>718699778
Go ruin someone else's game aesthetic you freak
Second Life and VR Chat have existed for years

>>718699382
>What makes it illegal?
you're impending their business?
they don't want their game to be known as a porn exchange and are well within their rights to have this garbage removed

>>718696389
>they still think it's SE
Why would SE be okay with it for 3 years just to kill it and it only?

>>718700010
There's a lot of weird fucks that have invested their whole life into this game. Its incredibly unhealthy and there will definitely be some roping

>>718700047
I'm here to laugh at your 9/11 neck yourself

>>718699907
ACT is just as bad as Dalamud.

>>718699985
Why the fuck did it have a server to begin with?
It was based off of tags and a text hash, it's all hard-coded

So is XIV Launcher dead? I've only played a bit of that shit game and XIV launcher was the only thing that made it bearable.

>>718699964
Most of the gooners do have sex is the thing.

Lot of people in the comments clearly don't understand what Mare does.
Unless you actively want this game to die, this is very bad news.

>>718697274
Happy birthday! :D

>>718700058
nobody doubts this

Isn't this FOSS? Or are the porn mods different from the usable UI addon stuff that's onQuickLauncher when I played awhile ago? Why did this die? can't someone just spin up another server?

I remember other server based mods or at least chat channel ones - there was one that basically
>Running "Sonar" I think it was
>Anyone running the mod on any server sees a big B, A, or S rank "Hunt" target rare spawn
>A message prints in chat that X monster is up on Y server
>you shift to that server, go to the zone and kill itt.
I don't know about any of the porn shit though

A fork will come soon enough anyway, there's the pedo fork already

It probably won't be as centralized with public syncshells though

>>718700058
I mean, what exactly does the game offer for non raiders?
Exactly.

>fork it, use some meme library to re-route through tor or one of the darknets

Was the mod causing problems for them? If people wanted to see each other's degenerate shit I don't see the issue, long as I don't have to see it.

>>718700260
Yeah, it won't even be a day until a new one will spring up, probably with the same people working on it.

>>718700284
It's not going anywhere obviously but you're absolutely part of the blame for it existing

>>718700167

>>718697258
Not until they kill modbeast troons completely, this just makes ERP less convenient because they'll see the literal clownsuit you're in and not lewd modded clothes.

What shocks me is that this shit did it centralized
Just set up a player to player connection, share each other's codes to connect, do whatever ERP business, and then move along. Could even make it so there's a new code every log in so nobody gets stalked or whatever.

>>718700312
I'm just stating facts retard

>>718700184
Nah man you can't tell me people who go to fictional nightclubs in ffxiv are having sex, sex releases much more oxytocin, prolactin and feel good hormones in general than beating your meat so youre a lot less likely to be a sex pest if you're having regular or semi-regular normal intercourse.

The only people I have EVER met that play ffxiv were gooner ERPers. Most of them were unironic trannies.

Now I don't even play this game. But the idea that square enix can reject their established audience and find some mythical new mainstream audience is fucking RETARDED. Every company that does this shit fails, every single one.

Isn't the difference with the alt checker than it can be used on anyone, while you'd only be affected here if you choose to use it?

>>718700838
counterpoint i cited one contrary aspect against your post but also I don't care about your parsefaggotry anyways. at most it would barely bring down the potential median so they can look forward to that
also bold to say I do any of this stuff more than once or people weren't going to play like shit with or without it in the first place. xiv is practically a singleplayer game with how free access all the cheater shit is
but do complain that trick is off timing like it's 2014 or something you're just free entertainment posts here

I will resub if they kill dalamud next

>>718701442
>>718701509
So that video claims that FF14 isn't safe for children, but if you're a 13 year old and download mare, clearly you know what you're downloading it for.

>>718701339
Mare quite literally is nothing more than syncing up people's Penumbra settings for visual modding. There's functionally nothing it can do but aid RP and ERP shit to begin with.

>>718700813
It's probably Japanese hubris as they are used to the JPN audience where modding gets your ass publically shamed and forced to kowtow.

>>718701178
5% of 200k is still 10,000, and when they're at what, 700k now? It's going to start adding up.

>>718701674
Idk man but I hope all 200k leave, you don't need a gazillion players to have a fun game, I've been here since 1.0 and it was way more enjoyable before the influx of these degenerates and wowfags. Less rampant cheating and botting, less obsession with parsefaggotry to the point they intentionally wipe raids if they don't crit something, much cozier and personal experience in general.

>>718701989
I used mudfish in sb and shb and it fucking sucked ass compared to xivalex and noclippy, no thanks west coast spic, I will keep using them

>>718701932
Don't know why. The PC version has plenty of advanced features. Why not let it show way more people? Feels so lame in an MMO not to see as many people as possible.

Jap suits must also hate money too. If most the people still subbed to your shitass MMO are gooners using it as an alternative to VRchat then you should probably leave them alone.

>>718702080
dude all i did was read the thread
that is literally all information i garnered from this thread
if all that takes is reading one thread for me to become an expert on the topic in your eyes then that's on you

>>718702092
The game was also better fundamentally in 2.0-4.0, so that also helped. Remove shitty players now and youre still stuck with DT

>>718702182
At this point, probably unironically, yes.

>>718701052
>only 2k hours
You are small time

>>718702276
You’re going to kill yourself for sure

>>718702251
Because XIV devs are lazy and haven't put in effort since SHB.

>>718702276
He's right, how the fuck are you going to be such a pussy about it when you're already anonymous. I couldn't imagine being so fucking spineless lmao

>all those wowtroons celebrating
Still not playing your hideous game

>>718702329
It’s extremely funny you even thought to type this

>>718702516
You'll still never be a real woman, troon.

>>718701932
Pretty sure max a screen can have is 300 but can’t have too many or your game will explode

>>718701914
look closely at the OP image you stupid fuck. This mod is 100% tranny coded

>>718702386
>>718701052
this game doesn't have content that lasts more than 5k hours at most, the fuck have you been doing this entire time

>>718702516
You dont even play your own game, xivvie

>>718702325
While true, the influx of these low standard trannies also contributed to that decline as while because they were quite literally giving them money and population just to goon. With them gone it might force them to actually do something to prevent their game from terminal decline.

I don't treat the game like a second life or a job. This is the case for most people and even if faggot erpers leave they'll still have whales buying shit.

>>718692918 (OP)
HA!

>>718701842
Shame culture and highly conformist.

>>718702092
The problem isn't bragging rights, the problem is Square enix is already rent seeking to hell and back with this revenue. If you have less players what is more likely:
1) They wise up, start delivering on quality
2) They rent seek even further to make up the difference

>>718702415
>>718702494
i can point it all out for you if you want
>mmo's playerbase is comprised of at least 15-20%
>>718699352
>it was already bleeding players
>>718695034
>the degenerates they wouldn't even know are doing this shit without having the mod themselves
basically most of the replies to >>718693675
but youu keep on thinking i'm some kind of expert schizo if you want and not just a dude able to read, if it makes you feel better

>>718702516
Did you ever play FFXIV or just goon in the main city?

>>718702680
>can’t innovate with money
>will somehow innovate without money

>>718702598
Who said I want to be one? Your fantasies?

>>718702516
Wowfags are even more cucked and gay than Final Fagtasy players. Face it, MMOs and triple A gaming are dead.

>>718702795
I raided seriously until they ruined the game for auto combo shitters

>now when I complain about the game I'm going to be called a modtranny, zodiark trancer, etc.
I still don't think people are coming back just because gooners can't goon atm.

>>718702680
This, people might be willing to stick around shitty patches if surrounded by players who aren’t literal goonfag trannies. They aren’t the only reason for the decline but they are a serious part of it.

Imagine you’re at a golf country club and the field maintenance becomes shoddy. Pretty bad right? Now imagine the club starts hosting literal gay orgies. Which one makes you stop going the game being worse or the fact you’d be associated with faggots

Game already ended with EW so none of this matters

>>718702651
Maybe if you don’t don’t like the game, I like to get relics, levels all classes and jobs, penta meld everything and play the market. Also love me some eureka, bozja, and OC. So I can easily get 15k hours in the game

>>718702803
>billion dollar company has no money
lol, they have plenty and the quality was much higher when they were making less of it somehow, probably because with thinner margins they weren't raping the game to fund their flops.

>>718702763
Third party passerby who only read thread
>>718702080
Is objectively correct, get a trip or something instead of tiptoeing around the bush, faglord

>>718702948
No, no, you see, NOW people HAVE to flock back, just ignore the series of shitty decisions made to the core game. It must’ve been modfags!

>>718702948
The playerbase's impression of the game is like 90 percent tied to the MSQ. If 8.0 comes out and word gets around that the MSQ is good again there will be a massive returning wave. Not that that's likely though.

>>718693675
people that want to look like this are not welcome in the game anymore

that is literally it

>>718703049
People really do think SE has zero money when they have their fingers in so many pies like animes, manga, live action stuff aswell

>>718703049
>lol, they have plenty
not according to yoshi p himself

>>718693332
Good. Kill it so they can make a new mmo that isn't held together with tape and doesn't just exist to steal XI and XIII models.

>>718703085
well now i can't even tell what the fuck you're trying to say, so i'm just gonna move on
but know that i am laughing at you, as i usually do

>>718703176
Are you ok?

>>718699173
the actual experience was 2.0 before glamours when people were actually running around in their AF and coil class sets
everything after has been zombie xiv

>>718703105
How coombrained do you have to be to want to do this in a shitty japanese MMO?

>>718703276
are you?

>>718695049
>Ah fuck I can't just bounce my live2d up and down on Twitch to make a living. What do I do now?

>>718702948
I’m literally coming back because gooners left

>>718703385
>coming back to eat shit because coomers got owned

>>718703385
Sure you are, those scary modders you never saw were totally ruining it for you

>>718703029
>I don't have a job and I'm also a trans virgin
lmao

>>718703385
>coming back
For about five minutes, kek

>>718703472
Seething troony goony
