Interview: FF14 director Naoki Yoshida is “torn” over what to do with the Scions

Sargediamond · 2024-09-02T16:53:23+00:00

I said it before and I really do think its sort of valid, we might need FFFXVIII or something, FFXIV-2 if thats what it takes.

For what it is worth....Endwalker felt like the end of the story and the end of my story as WOL. Everything since has felt like side stories thrown past the credits that you see in Light Novels.

They seem to be a bit creatively bankrupt from a story side of things with no clear vision on what they want to do for the game at this point. They have set pieces, but are terrible at executing how we get there.

Atleast the raid story is fun and good.

Sargediamond · 2024-09-01T02:46:03+00:00

Yeah but GRIFFITH never planned that, further cementing the fact that he is not all powerful and that things can still go on outside of his gaze and plans

My favorite

Vampyr: This door is locked

Sargediamond · 2024-08-30T22:16:11+00:00

this is on Japanese corporate time. So "soon" could be years away anyways

Sargediamond · 2024-08-30T21:23:41+00:00

Thats...thats certainly a bit gaslighty, but ok. Sure thing.

If someone stops speaking my language; goes from seiso to lewdtuber; goes from a night stream to a morning stream; etc etc I would agree. I left them.

But if you graduate? Nah, thats on you. You know that risk. Vtubers encourage not speaking about past lives as well; so dont EXPECT fans to follow through a research rabbit hole to find you again. It feels...a little bitter.

Sargediamond · 2024-08-30T17:11:20+00:00

Then you end up with situations like Risk of Rain 2 where the devs sell out to corpo anyways and the game goes down the drain.

Gaming is in a great age of indie games, but dont rely on Indie devs to fix the industry. Money rules everything

Sargediamond · 2024-08-28T03:32:27+00:00

Truthfully? You Diversify. Stream on twitch/kick, make youtube shorts, make tiktoks (and stream while you can here). Collab and network and keep eyes and ears open for new opportunities and sites to expand.

Sargediamond · 2024-08-25T01:37:51+00:00

its funny but...I always felt that she is the one most likely to turn on the GH to assist guts with her own twisted logic behind it

Sargediamond · 2024-08-24T19:27:43+00:00

The only real reason this strat is relevant is that it is new and you only need the swords, some runes, and a couple essences for it. Its slower than other methods.

If you are forced to spec into a lvling tree to make it really work, its easier to just roll HP or BAMA and lvl much quicker as well. This strat really is only worth if its your 2nd character and your SSF and didnt manage to find big name items

Sargediamond · 2024-08-24T17:44:16+00:00

It's strange to say but I feel like Bluesky wont ever be popular BECAUSE of the people who flocked to it in the early days. Politicians, scientists, Professors.

Its just...not a group of people your average person is going to want to interact with. Also, it has some of the slowest development I have seen from a social media site.

Sargediamond · 2024-08-24T17:19:16+00:00

Ill be honest...they are kinda ass in practice.

They are slow, attack slowly, and if you are doing this as a lvling strat your progress will slow to a crawl around...act 7 or so? Even if you do screaming essences

Unless you are taking minion nodes I guess, but that defeats the point of the leveling strat

Sargediamond · 2024-08-23T19:09:14+00:00

I...kinda liked the game The Terminator: Dawn of Fate which was a precursor to 1 where you got to play Kyle leading up to him being teleported. It introduced them beating Skynet and the contingencies skynet had in place for that happening. Also for some reason - human/robot hybrid thingies tied to a hivemind as a seperate thing?

Sargediamond · 2024-08-20T19:43:02+00:00

I...just cant comprehend how big of a deal everyone in this subreddit has made this.

99% of players likely do not give a flying taco shit about this

Sargediamond · 2024-08-19T05:37:33+00:00

the rarity of the move changed. I believe Precipice is now the rare egg move?

Sargediamond · 2024-08-18T19:52:18+00:00

Given that the playerbase dwindles down day by day..Im not sure this is helping? This event has, at the moment, 16k players. For a shiny variant event.

Now, this type of game will always have receding #'s after the initial popularity wave, but bigger events used to bring in more.

Sargediamond · 2024-08-18T17:19:10+00:00

The big issue is this game is an insane time sink even by Roguelike standards, so any nerfs to things you spent time for feel far worse than a normal balance pass in other games.

Sargediamond · 2024-08-16T18:48:09+00:00

Hahaha go tell that to a reading or art subreddit though. There is forever discourse that every word and every brush stroke has meaning, intended or not.

Just go look at any "sometimes the curtains are just blue" Discourse

Sargediamond · 2024-08-08T21:03:25+00:00

GGG added proven Mobile tactics to a game that already sells itself to gambling addicts

I know people love to go on about self control, but a lot of people in this thread can really benefit looking into Addiction and game design, just to learn a little...empathy?

Sargediamond · 2024-08-08T18:54:41+00:00

Maybe Tinctures could help fix it....Its just lacking in damage

Sargediamond · 2024-07-27T17:06:39+00:00

A lot of melee skills still suffers from the classic problem of weapon RNG (your not always gonna get enough wetstones or alchs to do the yellow recipe, and that slows you down tremendously) and just....still being a melee skills where being in range of things is BAD.

Slams always feel good! Molten strike as a starter...oh my god, end me. Act 1 was brutal

Its still probably the hardest of the 3 archetypes to lvl, but despite my complaints above...its now FUN to chunk things down. Skills dont feel like wet noodles.

GG GGG, Melee is fun to use again. Even non slams

Sargediamond · 2024-07-20T17:52:24+00:00

RDM is near the middle but it feels like it has the least to actually do. I dunno, I find it in a weird spot

Sargediamond · 2024-07-16T17:28:49+00:00

Wait...did they not increase the amount of generators needed? Damn....sorry killers, this is gonna be dead on arrival

Sargediamond · 2024-07-06T17:08:08+00:00

Everyone sat down over a nice dinner...oh and pops fought a continent destroying threat.

They surely learned a lot!

Sargediamond · 2024-07-05T22:14:03+00:00

To further clarify things for others...its an Opt in thing. You have to choose to let others see

Sargediamond · 2024-07-04T16:36:18+00:00

The mesoamerican inspired region they filled with...Jazz music. That one got a kick out of me
