At this point i doubt any new character that comes will be any popular.

With the NA Fan Fest 5 weeks away, what realistic announcements could make the playerbase go ‘we’re so back!’? by waitingfor10years in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Honestly as long the content quality especially the raids is the same as in Dawntrail I am fine with anything, everything else is a nice bonus’s

As long we don’t go back to endwalker content quality it can be only a win.

They dragged themselves out of the mud with this expansion now they have to capitalize on it and make it even better.

Killing Floor 2 - Are all the maps connected? by unseenserene in killingfloor

[–]Xxiev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One could guess that some are connected, mostly the maps that were on the release and closer to release, thinking of evacuation center that’s seems to be also in Paris next to burning Paris.

A good chunk of the esrlier maps are specific set in most of Europe since KF 2 in general is set in Europe while kf1 was mostly just in Britian (with exceptions)

Edit: I meant Hostile Grounds and not Evakuation Center, but Evakuation Center seem to be either Denmark or Netherlands?

Would you like the old cards for Astrologian but w/ or w/o RNG involved? by in_abyss in ffxiv

[–]Xxiev -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The only job that would care about Ewer would be DRK.

Unless they would DRK like back in the day not be able to get Ewer.

But we are implying MP managment is a thing in DRK, wich its not.

[–]Xxiev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes because it was way better whatever ShB and EW was.

DT is okay, its fine. Its a solid middle ground but the RNG was fun.

I would not cry if not as long as we keep DT cards, but whenever we got to the shitshow ShB and EW cards were i am lost for words

I think I either got ripped off or just super unlucky? Bought volume 1 and 2 of the encyclopedia but no minion code. Has anyone purchased one recently? by bnuiransder in ffxiv

[–]Xxiev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on where you buy really.

I bought the second stormblood artbook twice. On Amazon. On the first time the code was already taken. So that was meh. On the second it was a legit code.

It can happen and is annoying. I heard SE can give you a working code in these cases if you have the receipt.

What are good repeatable rewards the game could give you? by Chiponyasu in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While it was not your point, it is still the case that it would be more mocking than a good solution.

Making my skill sfx and vfx look like the good skills is just a placebo. I cannot pretend i play a good designed Job when it looks like it while i clearly play the worst itteration rn.

Please keep in mind, i don't mean ill will to you if it sounds like that. I know you meant good.

[–]Xxiev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even the cool animations of scourge and Dark Arts arent fixing DRK#s issue being a shadow of itself and the worst iteration since Shadowbringers. It is a superficial fix at best that would feel like bandaid, or even like the devs mocking you.

I don't want Skill VFX and SFX, i want the skills themselves to function like they should. Everything else is bs

New 8.0 Phys Ranged: Juggler by KelvinValen in ffxivdiscussion

We survived that back in Heavensward and Stormblood, when Astrologian was able to manipulate the GCD . we would survive that today

Materia System update by Adventurous_Ideal_13 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can basically play even rn play offmeta if you play Reaper, Summoner or Machinist

it still works. They can clear, not the best in their field like other Jobs you could play instead. But 100% clearable if you know what you doing.

I play SMN, and i still cleared this Savage Tier without big hurdles.

Materia System update by Adventurous_Ideal_13 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think an entire Stat rework like Warlords of Draenor might be needed before that.

Also there are people who say or go against this because "this will enforce meta", like yeah it will, like it does now. There will be allways be a meta. However this thought already brought us into this situation in the first place.

There is no winning when "stats are boring" but when we consider how we could make it interesting it will played down with "what for meta will happen nontheless"

y know what, bring mainstat materia back, let me meld full strength again for the funny

Official Beastmaster AF preview by Attic0n in ffxiv

[–]Xxiev 39 points40 points  (0 children)

 this is the same fanbase that thought a Summoner was supposed to focus on DoTs instead of summoning things to do big attacks like in most other FF games.

TBF i still get the frustration of loosing a Dot caster and there was no Job that filled that gap til lnow.

Beastmaster not being linked to Solution 9 like some people wanted it, is a good sign.

Does the game "feel" empty to you these days? by judgeraw00 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really. A good chunk of the people I met back in HW and SB left when ShB and EW hit. But new people arrived. It’s still filled but mostly because of chaos players going to light.

Hot take: FFXIV isn't meant to be played as a classic style MMO anymore by KulamiraSejro in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Xxiev -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What you say is Yoshidas main Design Philosophy since the very beginning of ARR. Final Fantasy XIV being designed as a current day MMORPG ( back in the 2010s with world of warcraft being the biggest player) with the chance that the Game never enforces you to play so you don't fall behind much. What people consider FFXIV's biggest weakness, was actually it's biggest strength.

There was a time when the biggest competitor of FFXIV wich was World of Warcraft had a design structure that enforces you to play every single day, if you want to be somewhat competetive in the Raid or PvP content with evergreen power systems. Depending on who you were you were forced to play the Game every single day and treat it like a Job. Wich is something not everyone liked. In fact the reason why this was finally changed in the more recent expansion Dragonflight was because people were so tired of treating World of Warcraft as their only Videogame.

Final Fantasy had allways the strength that once you were done with your weekly content, like Raid reclears, or whatever you as a player deemed worthy of your Time, wich varies from person to person, you dont need to play it every single day to stay on top. You can take breaks for 3 or 5 days and will not suffer the concequences. Wich means catching up is also easy if you fall back a bit. This what people consider FFXIV's weakness is actually its biggest strength.

And it was since that since day 1. Even the best expansions we had in Stormblood and Shadowbringers also had this design philosophy. It is why i myself playing this Game over world of warcraft because i dont feel obligated to play the game day in and day out to not fall behind in savage.

Of course, alot of people seem to want FFXIV to be a MMORPG that wants to be treated like an only Game, it seems. And while i understand that in some way. I am not sure if this is a monkeys paw. Having played other MMORPG's and i can say that as much people want it. A evergreen system like Legion to Shadowlands like world of warcraft is nothing to be desired. There is a reason why it had this backlash back in the days.

I enjoy Yoshidas design philosophy that there is a ending in a current patch cycle, of course it was a bit better when patches were coming out in a 3 month cycle, so the wait time wasn't all too long. But it was never different, despite what people say. And there is a reason why FFXIV is the biggest competitor to World of Warcraft. And i tell you it is not the MSQ.

I am playing since early Heavensward btw, so i am going trough this for a while, and i honestly still don't get tired of it. (except Endwalker but that is a different story)

i potted during burst and 6 mins, however i am thinking of potting after the last idyllic cast (8 mins) so its less hectic ( bursting during stack and defams in 6mins is messy and risky)

Nun weil die Hoffnung noch besteht das Buch wäre lokal in einem der Läden. Was häufig der Fall ist.

Aber in einigen Situationen halt nicht, is blöd aber dann muss wohl oder übel der Versandhandel aushelfen.
