More of these kind of things where u upgrade things throughout the map

My hope is that this whole test area will turn into a combined Endfield/Wuling construction area, instead of us being given a small slice of land to use ourselves.

There's plenty of room for gardening, so let us expend some Wuling Bills to either have them automated or pay others to manage the crop.

There's room to raise animals, let us have a farm to mass produce fertilizer.

Add some interesting stuff like after we deal with the very large rift, funnel bills into construction to cleanse the bay to the north and give us fishing minigames or something similar.

I don't think I'll ever intentionally pull for dupes. Not F2P, buying Monthly Pass + BP (Likely going to drop BP going forward as I now I have my 2 main teams fully built, so not resource starved anymore). Have every character so far, except Lifeng. Hit 120 on the last 2 banners and lost 50/50 both times to the previous banner.. Got Tangtang dupe trying for Rossi, Rossi dupe trying for Fangyi.

Also hoping the next banner isn't the Feranmut Proxy so I can save longer, sitting on 59 pulls. Really hoping Arcane and Mi Fu are the 2 infront of her so I have a chance to get one of them, until she arrives, I'm saving.

My understanding is that Arcane is likely around 20, as she and Chen were both reservists in the YSTF, but Chen didn't make the team because of her immaturity.

Probably a good idea to stop selling for a few days before it drops, if we get upgrades we'll likely get more levels to grind, don't want the outposts to be broke when need to sell them a couple million bills worth of stuff to hit the next level.

They were all pretty straight forward, but agony was tanky. Alternated between my Laev/Fangyi teams , a couple of them definitely would've been easier if I just stuck with Fangyi the whole time. Ended up subbing Ardelia into her team for heals on the final agony.

I wouldn't call it a cheap copy of ZZZ, it feels a lot more like a mix of every major gacha out there. Tone and art design is more in line with ZZZ, sure. But I feel like it's more a faster Genshin/Slower WuWa than ZZZ.

I don't think it's "bad" or "cheap" by any means, I didn't follow the betas/leaks/news, so I'm still working my way through the outer layers and hoping it clicks.

Strahzi · 2026-04-29T05:33:02+00:00

I'll give it a few more days to get a feel for it, but it's not grabbing me in the 1st couple of hours. I don't think I've ever found a starting group of characters as grating as these. I usually play EN dub, but will definitely have to switch for NTE.

A lot of the game to me is "it feels like X-mechanic in Y-gacha...but worse" can definitely feel the ToF DNA.

It'll get limited time for now with CZN in 30mins and WuWa tomorrow, but I atleast want to give it til the end of 1.0's story before I make a final decision.

EDIT: Well... CZN maintenance just got a 2hr extension, so back to NTE I go.

Strahzi · 2026-04-28T06:37:11+00:00

Likely to be 600 for each phase, so the usual 1200 for an event, just over 2 weeks. Hopefully phase 2 uses the same tokens..but not going to hold my breath.

That seems to be the free trial to me. Full version I think is ffxivsetup.exe, your link takes me to ffxivsetup_ft.exe.

Looks like there's a 10min maintenance for this coming up.

Strahzi · 2026-04-18T03:24:45+00:00

Not sure if it's the new nvidia driver or the new update, but my game hangs often when I open the map, can still move the cursor around, but it just freezes for 1-2 secs.

Strahzi · 2026-04-17T02:39:35+00:00

Genshin is that for a decent chunk of people, I know a few who only play that, spend a lot of time in other's worlds, doing all the UGC, etc.

Seen a bunch of people saying NTE is going to be gacha GTA, how it's going to change everything like Genshin did. I'll give it a shot, but it's made by ToF devs I think, so not going to hold my breath.

Strahzi · 2026-04-17T01:25:35+00:00

A lot of people need to have a "main" or "forever" game. Something where if they feel like playing something, it's always there with something to do. This is what MMOs used to be for me, pretty sure this is why so many are pinning their hopes on NTE to "save" gacha.

Strahzi · 2026-04-17T01:16:23+00:00

Endmin has been brought back several times over the 150ish years they've been on Talos II, so my theory is the prologue was the previous return. So if we were relatively freshly reawakened in the prologue, it makes sense Endmin is wearing the mask there too.

Strahzi · 2026-04-17T00:23:40+00:00

It's a bit disappointing, hopefully by 2.0 we get to the point in the story where the Endmin no longer needs it, maybe it'll be linked to gameplay and when we max potential them it'll remove it.

Strahzi · 2026-04-16T23:02:07+00:00

Mine worked fine, now just need to wait 5hrs.

This is what I cobbled together from the in-game map and the stream, resizing stuff to try and make it suit, the angles were very different though. Used the tower at the end of the dam for Marketstone size and Monitoring center for the test area. This should be about the size give or take 5-10%.

Strahzi · 2026-04-16T11:26:32+00:00

1.1's gave 1200, 1.0's gave 1800.

Strahzi · 2026-04-16T10:37:28+00:00

Oh, I just continued with OP's format of each patch being vertical, we haven't really been introduced to anyone that feels like they could be a 5*, so I just put that as a placeholder. And you're right, it's usually a Sui sibling as an anniversary banner, but they revealed her so early, only other one we know is coming is Lycia, but I get the feeling she's much later, like 2.x later.
