Why is it so hard for tanks to do their one fucking job which is to keep aggro?

>dps doesn't use diversion
>tank doesn't do his job and adjust and keeps dpsing like a mong

goes both ways

Why is it so hard for you to press one single button so that the drk doesn't have to turn on grit and lose a metric ton of dps?

fun fact, if you weren't an absolute shitter DPS, using diversion would be mandatory. You would quickly discover that tanks cannot keep hate against you if you go full force with no enmity management and thus would begin using it religiously. Since you feel it is not mandatory, it is clear you are a shitter.

>it's okay for DPS to selfishly reduce the party's overall DPS by forcing the tank to use his aggro combo or tank stance just because he can't be bothered to use diversion
here's the difference faggot, aggro combo and tank stance is a huge DPS loss for the tank. Diversion is not a DPS loss for damage dealers. Use diversion bitch.

>use diversion
>goes on cooldown for awhile
>tank still can't keep aggro

No one cares though, if someone isn't using diversion it's your job to go in tank stance and keep aggro, the dps isn't the one wiping the group cause you're too much of a parse faggot to be the tank.

It used to happen to me a lot when lakshmi was still relevant.

diversion is 2 minute cooldown. Your provoke and ultimatum is on a much shorter cooldown. Do your fucking job tanks.

This is literally a general. They belong on /vg/.

>if you think that tank dps is more imprtant than the DPS jobs
When the fuck did I ever say anything about that you stupid fucking no-reading-comprehension retard? Popping diversion once pre-pull and then maybe weaving it between GCDs once when you have no oGCDs up does not reduce your DPS at all. It's not a choice between tank DPS or DPS DPS. It is a choice between less tank DPS or more tank DPS.

> if someone isn't using diversion it's your job to go in tank stance and keep aggro
no faggot it's my job to shirk your ass and let you die so your aggro will reset. Deal with it and learn faggot.

>Your provoke and ultimatum is on a much shorter cooldown.

It's 30 seconds long and makes your enmity generation nonexistent. Just use it on prepull, it costs you literally nothing.

If someone is intentionally making your job harder by refusing to do one simple bloody thing then that's no longer your responsibility, it's theirs.
>the dps isn't the one wiping the group
If the tank does not adjust then yes, yes they are, because it's the DPS' mistake. The tank is not obligated to adjust for your mistakes, for the same reason that someone is not obligated to step out of your way IRL because you feel it is your right to move in a straight line.

You could be increasing the party's overall dps by 5% if you use div.
You are not using div.
Your party's dps is going down.

5% being less than 10% does not excuse or justify the fact that you are willingly making a decision that lowers your party dps by 5% purely because you are a lazy cunt that makes excuses for being a lazy cunt.

Lol, I play BRD which has no diversion or even hate reduction oGCDs, nor does any rDPS. You literally HAVE to use your hate combo, because I wont even use diversion.

Is it so hard to do your only job? If you wanna do damage play DPS. But I'm sure your two brain cells cant handle that if you can't even tank.

tanks, learn to dps properly if you want to stay in dps stance, cause if you don't I'm still going to get aggro, if you're not parsing atleast purple stay the fuck in tank stance.

Jej, I usually use these anyway because they help. Nevermind the hate reduction, it's very different from diversion and you all know it.

>Naoki Yoshida: The First, where the Shadowbringers story will take place, does indeed show similarities to areas on the Source. This is due to the splitting of Hydaelyn into fourteen shards over 10,000 years ago—each of these separate worlds went down their own path with their own history. Naturally, their history and evolution would divulge from this point, and so we did not repurpose any existing assets.

Not true with these shit tanks who dont use their hate combo.

I usually use Foes, Refresh at about 1 tick left for a quick next Foes. Is having a longer initial Foes better because of openers?

That's why they gave SAM's merciful eyes ability an enmity dump effect.

Now BLM on the other hand, if I use diversion it's fine for 30s but a minute after that and I'm already near top aggro or already pulled the enemy.

If you're a shitter tank that can't keep aggro against a dps then you honestly need to be replaced before you waste everyone's time.

But I actually toss you shields and every high potency Arrow I can get, BLManon.

DPS meta is what makes this game so fucking trash to play seriously, it's all anyone cares about.

You're a tank? just do DPS, who cares about aggro, if you do enough DPS you'll be top aggro anyway lol (no you won't but everyone still pretends you will)
You're a healer? Just do DPS, it's more important to get some extra DPS in than ensure nobody dies.
You're a DPS Mage? Why aren't you using your swiftcast to revive the tank that died cause the healer didn't heal him? fucking entitled DPS players that think they have the right to do their job instead of the healers job.
You're a melee DPS? Better hope you have some raid buffs or you're not getting in.

Hope ShB completely revamps the gameplay so that tanks and healers can stop acting like they can ignore their role to DPS.
Otherwise I won't even play, game is fucking boring in this state.

>tanks and healers are supposed to also deal damage
Why though? Because its actually needed or just to hasten things?

I would PvP a lot if it actually gave poetics worth a damn for my HW relic. Instead I have to spam run Alex for noob bonuses. Last night I had to deal with 2 healers in A11 that had grandma tier reflexes for everything from movement to healing.

What a retarded post, if you make tank stance "mandatory," then why the fuck even have a tank stance? It serves no purpose at that point because there is no alternative.

I'm hoping Soken and Susan can make a song together. I'm so used to having her sing in each expansion. Also, would be nice to see if Soken can write a ballad

cause fflogs exists and NA players are autistic.
play on JP and you'll see people doing their job properly.

Attached: 1508953338765.png (467x267, 203K)

Because neither tanks nor healers have anything else to do other than build enmity and predictable, predetermined outgoing damage. Off the top of my head, if mobs auto attacked more frequently and tanks needed to weave in a rotation that reduced incoming damage, then you'd be swapping between that and keeping enmity. If healers swapped between utility, healing and actively building resources, they wouldn't have the time to deal damage either.

The way these roles are designed, their signature role is demanded at spacious, predictable intervals, leaving them with downtime during which they either stand still or do damage. Seeing as extra damage will let you skip phases/race for world first, why not?

The fact that they're hiding it until you reach that point in the game makes me kind of excited. Maybe some crazy shit is going to happen after we kill Innocence. The leader of the Sin Eaters being the 77 trial is pretty suspicious.

Most DPS in this game are hot garbage and can't clear content. You reduce tank DPS and suddenly there will be massive numbers of more DPS who can't clear

I can't tell between shitposting anymore. Is the usage of diversion normal? I use it on my DPS between pulls just because it's a free CD and I don't get aggro problems. When I tank, I'll usually lose one or two enemies during a mass pull if I switch to DPS stance. Even during boss fights I'll do an extra enmity combo before switching because everytime I only do one, I'll lose aggro fast.

The ironic thing about skip soar is that groups were forced to deal with second soar later on anyways. Sure you could cheese it with tank LB2, but sometimes the tank hits it too late or people are stacking directly ontop each other so it does nothing and you end up wiping.

I think skipping Soar was more about your group having competent dps or not and that being the immediate indicator. My group went in blind on day one and didn't even know there was supposed to be a Soar at the start because we just never saw it. And that was without tryharding because you can't really tryhard if you don't know what's coming up next. If you're seeing Soar at the start of that fight, you need to work on some things.

Mods and the trainer get me so horny whenever I play

time for you to go back to WoW. That's not how tanking works in FFXIV. An FFXIV tank keeps hate and mitigates damage, yes, but they do WHILE maximizing DPS. All damage in the game is highly scripted making it a simple matter to use mitigation when damage is incoming, thus tanking in FFXIV is mostly a balancing act designed to allow you to maximize damage while just holding enough hate not to lose the mob.

As I said in , decent DPS not only use it because they should but because they have to. You can't have a functioning party with a great DPS who doesn't use diversion, it won't work because that DPS will rip hate and die.

Using mods is a crutch.

>my group
Then you probably didn't pug it. You're both right, PUGs basically required high ilvl requirements to "guarantee" better dps, but the real problem was people were shit at mechanics. It's the same these days, people locking raids behind high ilvls are stupid.

>Have only had trouble holding threat if a BRD or MCH goes hogwild on a single mob as I'm running to chain pull groups and all I did was a single range hit on it

If I have exceptionally strong DPS I might just wait through one more GCD/Threat Combo before dropping tank stance. If I truly want to see huge numbers I'll queue as BLM or SAM.

Just gotta avoid these meta parse fag idiots that infest these threads. They've somehow turned co-op gaming into PvP. Fucking geniuses. There's is almost no way in which the devs could make this game easier, or have easier DPS checks. But here we are, all that matters is the color on some arbitrary website that doesn't even matter.

It's just so fucking slow and boring
No specs, no customization you are just like everyone else and there is no reason to pick you over the other player

I just started leveling LNC. Not entirely sure I understand where the job is going, I hear it only starts coming together as of 60. I don't fully understand why I have two skills that combo into each other and one skill that doesn't combo at all and otherwise does nothing, or why I have a ranged attack, or why I have a skill that does more damage on flanked enemies but grants its buff regardless of where you attack from. I hear you're just supposed to spam impulse drive?

Attached: ffxiv_twi05004.png (400x400, 6K)

Yeah bro. I'm sure you had a very unique and secret spec that people wanted to take you over everyone else.

impulse drive is the start of your second combo. eventually you have 2 different primary combos. But yes, if you want more damage you need to do your positionals

>I don't fully understand why I have two skills that combo into each other and one skill that doesn't combo at all and otherwise does nothing
Because DRG for whatever reason doesn't load you with skills in a logical order. Eventually you'll see the job has two main weapon combos it does with its rotation.

after a certain level you get the third move for the first combo, and then impulse drive gets two other attacks that also lead to a combo

>there is no reason to pick you over the other player
fflogs

Because diversion is in cooldown and your dumbass yields like, 1/5 the damage my BLM is pissing out. Quit pretending your output matters.

This angers me more than it should. Especially "instant queue, someone missed/withdrew and now it resets with 30 minutes minimum estimated waiting time". It's false hope.

The ranged attack is to keep dps if you can't be on the enemy for whatever reason. Impulse Drive gets its own combo eventually.

>no specs
but specs in wow arent any different. you can spec to do damage as shm, priest, pld etc but we all know people will just invite you to be a healer.

In theory yes, but it breaks your combo and since each drg combo is eventualy 5 skills each, itll never get used.

Alright, that sounds reasonable. Was mostly concerned about the order in which I was getting skills not really making much sense. I know it's too early to worry terribly much when I haven't even unlocked half the skills, but I wanted to make sure I was starting right. The 1-50 stage of leveling needs a bit of a rework, I hope they address this soon.

He's right though. I'm literally never going to do any ultimate ever for the simple reason that I pug my high-end content and don't use out-of-game chat services like discord. When the playerbase gets their head out of their ass and learns to communicate like normal people over the game's chat function then maybe we'll talk, but I ain't getting into discord with you faggots.

ShadowBringers is the centre point. I remember Yoshi P saying in an interview when ARR came out that they planned to support the game for 10 years. Going off their current release schedule that would mean there will be 2 more expansions after this one. That would kind of make sense since they could leave the final level cap at 99.

I really do wish FFXIV had its own actually intuitive chat and voice system so discordshitters would leave.

>Chatting in game
>when you can get banned for a simple ascii emote
>not even chat restricted straight up account deletion

I havent put a single word in a chatbox since that Orwellian ToS update.

No? Part of the appeal of each individual FF is what they do with the idea of Final Fantasy and what concepts they bring back. FFXVI should be its own thing.

I like to believe that the new AAA project Yoshida is working on ends up being FFXVI or the very least a FFXIV singleplayer RPG spinoff built with FFXV's engine

is that why benchmark is postponed?

What a retarded question. FFXIV is FFXIV. What would that transition entail? An arbitrary, unnecessary name change? Become a singleplayer game? What do you mean?

>Ultimate is good for this game's health
That doesn't even make sense. How is wasting resources on stupid bullshit that only .001% of the players will ever see good for the game's health?

>another dungeon nobody gives a shit about.
You have it completely backwards my dude. 99.999% of the players in this game don't give a flipping fuck about ultimate anything. Meanwhile everyone runs dungeons at least once.

Why do you need voice chat? What is with this game's obsession with people's voices? Why can't people just play a damn game instead of trying to get to know everyone personally. As a loner who doesn't care for people, I find it incredibly annoying.

>Making things up

I relate to this. I can be reasonably social but I don't care to listen to someone else's dog bark or listen to how their workday went. When I join Discord voice channels I just keep myself muted.

Then why not just make XIV-2? Let XVI be its own thing.

>Why do you need voice chat?
Of course you wouldn't know when you're only doing content when guides and macros gets written and posted.

No ones taking away your right to suck futa cocks by creating or engaging with it.

>Wasting resources

You have no idea what you're talking bout. The assets are already there, they aren't wasting any resources whatsoever. Ultimate is good for this game's health because all the people who spew shit about how it's waste of time, were sure spending time watching people do world prog on twitch. The view count for the game jumped up a lot when it was fresh and people were there cheering for their favorites. Who the FUCK cares about a dungeon running from point A to B when you can do challenging content that MATTERS.

>Massive twitch and community attention and involvement
AHAHAHAHAHA

literally nobody watches this shit on twitch.

Go play a different game then

>Why do you need voice chat? What is with this game's obsession with people's voices?

It's much more pertinent to ask what your problem with voice is you fucking schizoid. It is infinitely better for group communication to be able to speak than it is to try and invent some pantomime bullshit or trying to type chat during raids. You are the problem here, not the world.

Nigga even the joke of a subreddit knows the GMs are inconsistant shitheads. They just had one of their most upvoted posts about it 2 days ago.
Congrats on getting lucky and not having a vindictive shithead report you I guess.

FFXI is 17 years old and still running with mandatory sub fee and all. FFXIV will follow the same path since it's a main series FF game and nips have a certain level of respect for the main series brand.

So a handful of retards have some weird e-celeb thing going on and that means only some content matters? fuck off retard do you have any idea how many people play this game? Sure as fuck a hell of a lot more than watch twitch streams. You are depriving hundreds of thousands if not more people of more content to enjoy just so that maybe 10,000 at most throughout the content's life can watch some e-celeb play through it on twitch. that's not a fair trade.

Why not just make XI-2 instead of XIV then?

>As a loner who doesn't care for people, I find it incredibly annoying.
You're playing the wrong type of video game.

of course that's why 8.2 is releasing at the same time

So if a DPS uses Diversion its pretty much impossible to lose enmity after you just use one enmity combo and switch stances right? I should just assume that if someone rips aggro after that its them playing poorly?

XI has nothing to do with XIV though.

They watch the day one ultimate groups.
Which was the point bait-kun.

Blizzard has been seething about FFXIV for years now. Every major release for them, be it a patch or expansion, has to be around the same time as a major release for FFXIV because they just want to try and fuck over SE.

>Calling people retards for wanting to challenge themselves

No argument

>Depriving people

Again, ultimate was made by a couple of people using assests already created in the game. No one was being deprived of anything, except you depriving your brain of oxygen.

Again, here's another (you)

The number of people who do that dumb e-celeb shit is insignificant compared to the number of people who play the game and run casual content like dungeons. Thus you are retarded. You are not more important than 90% of the rest of the game.

Attached: 1537922257468.gif (460x259, 3.71M)

It doesn't have to do with anything from XIV. It's just the next FF MMO.

You're making the right choice. I've been in several FFXIV discord channels and they are ALL cancerous cesspools. These people aren't even fucking normal, they're all pedophiles. Don't EVER join a FFXIV discord channel

Yes. Anyone telling you otherwise is lying. A BLM or SAM might have to use it again later in a fight, but its pretty much mathmatically impossible for a DPS to catch up to a tank if they're using Diversion unless the tank is just not pushing buttons. Diversion makes you do nil threat for 30 entire seconds. It would be impossible to catch up to the tank's threat before Diversion came off cooldown again.

More people give a shit about dungeons than ultimate though. With that said, they do need to start making better dungeons.
>Who the FUCK cares about a dungeon running from point A to B
For starters, because you're actually doing the content instead of watching someone else do it.

Nobody gives a shit about dungeons and only do them becasue they're forced to to get to the current endgame content that matters.

Well: solve that problem for them if you care so much.

stop projecting.

retail wow is fucking shit and FFXIV is just literally another version of WoW

Dungeons are great. I fucking love 'em. There's nothing better than logging in right when the game comes back up on patch day and queuing up for a brand new dungeon for the first time.

I'm not sure where that guy was going with direct sequel. That is not what I was referring to originally. The team that is working on XIV could easily transition to the next project in a few years while leaving a few behind to make minor updates for XIV.

Bait.

No idea why. WoW still has like 3m+ players and XIV only 500-600k.

This may be a huge generalization based on a single photo of a WoWfag from the back, but are FFXIV players far more attractive than the typical WoW player?

Thordan was the only truly challenging one. Sephirot was difficult because of the damage not the mechanics. Nidhogg and Ravana were average with one or two challenging mechanics. Bismarck, Sophia and Zurvan were no different from Stormblood EX primal difficulty.

I generally forget when in dungeon, but I remember it in 8 mans. Also it's a feels good, but bad at the time feeling when you use Diversion as BLM, rip aggro from a tank stance WAR, Lucid, and then rip it again a minute later. As a tank main I'm appalled.

FFXIV is the only MMO that WoWs official Twitter account responds to.

Did WoW made any new tweets to FFXIV?

Every female you meet is a guy and every male you meet is a female. The moment you go in voice chat there's that one male who's trying to act like a female and you just gonna have to tolerate it to get your clear.

A single hate combo won't kill you, I've never gotten upset at DPS who don't use it.

My group cleared ucob in about 25 hours of playtime over 2 weeks. It's not hard if you're not a shitter.

Here's how we fix everything.
>DPS and Healers lose ALL of their enmity control tools with certain exceptions (such as shadewalker).
>Instead they now have New-Diversion: For 15 seconds temporarily reduces your enmity to 0. What enmity you had before is restored afterwards. On a 90 second cooldown.
>Tank stances all cost 0 resources to turn on, and are GCDs (So Warrior no longer gets a few toggle, but would probably receive a minor buff to make it slightly stronger).
>Every tank now has a button that negates the damage penalty provided by being in the their tank stance, possibly as a part of Blood Weapon on DRK, and Fight or Flight on PLD.

Now, tanks are in charge of maintaining the highest enmity throughout the fight. DPS players should still use their single enmity button during their openers where they shit out monumental amounts of damage, but after that it's up to the tanks to stay in charge of routinely using their new enmity phases to stay on top. Diversion would only be good as a bandaid outside of the opener.

Wow shitters pls go. We get that having more than 4 buttons to push is too much for brainlets like you but please don't casualize this game even further.

I've seen literal whos clearing it user. No excuses

Nobody actually does this

Do they?

Just a reminder that this month or next they're going to force all FFXIV steam players to launch the game through steam instead of the exe

Should be interesting to see how much the steam numbers for the game go up

None of the jobs you listed are caster DPS either. It's a bit more difficult to animate a cool fight choreography if the hero is forced to stand in place to do his thing (or impotently whack the enemy with a book spine, or somehow make it clear that each attack was accompanied by an insta-cast ability).

>Tank refuses to do their job and the party wipes
>"It's the DPS' fault not mine!"
Yeah if the DPS are below spec for a check a wipe will happen but a tank's DPS isn't so fucking amazing that you'll single-handedly carry them through it if they use Diversion. I can't tell if you're a DRK allergic to Grit or a WAR addicted to Fell Cleave crit screenshots.
If you're so great at DPS then be a DPS, after all then you can do the "right" things so other tanks refusing to use their tank mechanics will be able to win those raids for you with their DPS alone.

You mean acting like a tranny and ERPing to get into groups autistic enough? No.

Fun Fact: the reason why people rush for world first raids is so they can be the first people to sell the content for money. this isn't just FFXIV, this happens in WoW as well.

t. someone that doesn't play FFXIV

Nobody gives a shit about world first in FFXIV.

how about you fuck off and hit your diversion button shitter. "lol just make tank unfun so that I don't have to press one button" is not a solution.

Seek help.

I've been playing since 2.5 and I haven't met anyone like that

What the fuck are you on about?
Aether, the datacenter most known for raiding tryhards was ecstatic that Balmung was being quarantined.
Yea Forums memes are rotting your brain

Carry sellers do. EM is a proud world first raiding FC and content seller. You could look it up.

>the comments are still about male Viera

>Tanks threatening people to let them die
>dps trash not pre popping a free cd
I swear NA community gets more rock bottom over time somehow.

What makes you think the steam numbers are going to go up significantly? Most steam drones like to catalogue their hours.

They're going to make a male viera NPC just to shut them up.

I know a lot of people that have the game on steam but never have steam open because launching from the exe is faster. Plus people hide their NEET amount of playtime hours from friends

I spend most of my time catching up in the story and really only get to lowcore raid tiers like normal 8-man and 24-man while tackling real life responsibilities. I know I won't be reliably available for Savage, so I don't bother looking for statics.

The funny thing is these people worship the JP community for "muh team work" but are constantly at each other's throats. I don't mind aggro comboing and I expect dps to use diversion in savages but if they don't I don't throw a fit, or say anything until they start jeopardizing the run
Some of these people are just peculiar to me.

Fuck off niggermages.

Quick Yea Forums, what's your excuse for not transferring off the quarantine data center crystal with this FREE transfer SE are offering you.

If you're not trapped in there, godspeed fellow game players.

There are big breasted women, tranny. Just because you'll never have them doesn't mean you need to be jealous.

its mostly underaged people. go play an old ass mmo and you'll see that most people dont sperg about dps nearly as much.

They're going to rise definitely but how much is yet to be determined. For reference, ESO had low player numbers on Steam until they made Steam Authentication mandatory and it jumped up a lot.

I have the game on steam and use that launcher but my account isn't a steam account

first of all that's a shitty meme pushed by retards who know nothing about crystal. Second I currently own the best small plot in the game and I'm not giving it up for anything.

I've stopped using diversion entirely outside of my static thanks to the tank divas in this thread. They never do anything about it either they just quietly seethe and do their enmity combo like the little beta cucks they are. Then they go on reddit and post fantasies about how they totally owned the dps by shirking them.

Unironically good choice. Discords for games are shit in general but online games, including especially final fantasy 14? The absolute worst of the lot.

They've been chased out of everywhere else for being creepy pedos.
Even the OF shits on them now.

I have a mansion on balmung

I'm too scared to tank.

Tanking is literally DPS, just with better defensive cooldowns. You'll be fine.

Literally no one cares.
Just type a quick "sorry, still learning" on mistakes if it bothers you that much.

I went there willingly and it turned out that all this nonsense is the typical exaggeration by shitposting normalfags that infest this rathole. So much for the crazy drama and insane players, it's just dead and boring there.

>Be a bottom bitch healslut
>Never tanked in my life
>Finally decide to level DRK for the job quests
Casual tanking in XIV is probably the easiest tanking in any holy trinity MMO.

Its literally walk up and spam AoE while in Tank stance.

>I'm too scared to press buttons
maybe you should read a book instead of playing video games

yeah and they dont look anything like that

Bros I miss the comfy Yea Forums xiv threads. The quality is dropping and people are just fighting.. then again at least trannies get called out and screenshotniggers get shot on sight so it's still better than /vg/.
Work on it in hyper casual content or with squadron npcs until you feel comfortable with the role. Sperg healers and suicidal dps are a thing but not enough to be a big problem for you. You'll be fine.

That happens to me literally all the time. I actually had a faggot tank try to tell me the exact ogcd I should use it cause 3 seconds pre pull wasn't enough for him. Sad part is it was a WAR

You have social anxiety.
You probably shouldn't be playing a MMO.

>Naturally, their history and evolution would divulge from this point, and so we did not repurpose any existing assets.
It's one hell of a coincidence that Limsa and Eulmore have the exact same architecture.

Really now?

It's the content lull period. Of course quality suffers both in discussion and skill level.

June can't come soon enough.

god i wish those kinds of people wouldnt play mmos but its all mmos are full of these days

Eulmore does incorporate some Middle Eastern architectural styles that Limsa doesn't have, but I'm hoping the similarity is something they cover in the story.

What exactly is wrong with posting screenshots?

dude stop youre just embarrassing yourself

/xivg/ stigma more than anything. Occasionally you get attention whores and that's enough for people to have a hate boner for them.

No such thing as a quarantine server or data center, idiots can go to any server they want and they do.

>Game has a boob slider
>Only goes from A to B cup only
>Flat to flatter for Lalafel
Truly, it's an unfair thing.

But there is a Diversion button.

It also needs better drill hair

I somewhat agree.
But you know that it'd just result in every single cat girl having gigantic tits. And when everyone has gigantic tits, no-one has gigantic tits.

The sad part is that there's probably some poor stupid fucker that will take him up on it.

I'll take bigger asses first

Towards the end of the month.

No, he must be talking about the plot at the top of the hill with the hotspring on the very top of the hill. House next to the cave is only a medium.

I'm going Viera, so does it matter?

No matter the race it's still autistic.

Hell no. I don't want this game to end up looking like another cheap shitty Korean MMO

middies are the least degenerate race

They have done this with other competing MMOs, I remember they have done it with Guild Wars in the past.

Sure it makes sense to do so for competition and protection but It comes off as really insecure and petty, like they really don't want people trying or playing other games than their own.

But... what if I just want to be a cute lala doing cute non lewd things.

this is correct
I play male humans in every mmorpg that lets me

I'm a midlander because I'm a degenerate

I guess that is true. Threads will be better with news on shadowniggers or other happenings. Fighting in threads is just the natural state when not distracted around here.
Attentionwhoring, killing discussions and threads, erpfagging, horny fags with low IQ that can't ignore them. If you want to see what is wrong with it just check out /vg/. Not just for ffxiv but mmos in particular seem to suffer from it.

Female lalafel. Because I am worth it too.
