Well he's not wrong, but I'm gonna focus on one thing he said and make him look dumb.
>No voice acting all the time
What a faggot, there's just enough voice acting and this guy really needs to just go back to WoW.
Guess im contrarian because I actually enjoyed the leveling process.
did you level up like him? facerolling below his level content?
Nope. Leveled against at level enemies. I could see how it would be boring if you were overleveled and had to go through a bunch of quests killing underleveled enemies.
>tortures himself going through ARR and the MSQ grind
>finally gets to stormblood
>NOW he decides to buy a story skip
the absolute state of this lad, no wonder he hates the game
I, personally, think it's laid out well, you can roulette some dungeons for a change of pace
Older content still being played tons because of that
Skills-wise shadow bringers only went forward, while it feels off, it's just gotta get around the added and removed things
Voice acting isn't a necessity and if you NEED it in vidya what is wrong with you
Just press space, set it to a comfy speed and read it like a book, listen to the background ost in the meantime.
Problem is WoWfags aren't used to the "big" global cooldown
Everything has to go FAST FAST QUICK OMG
Anything else is just too slow and boooring like the youtube video in the OP says
It's a little easier to slip into FFXIV if you got prior knowledge of the FF games, for sure
Seeing references pop up from time to time or music and the like, is nice
Story-wise it's a bit of a drag at points but if you pay careful attention it can be quite nicely written, specially ARR HW and now ShB too
Also this...
heavensward* FUCK
Listening and typing is not for me
All those dislikes is because he's a stupid faggot. The side quests are something to do while waiting for dungeon que or when youre bored. The MSQ will carry you most of the way for one class, then you can do the quests. FATEs are great but people only do them on current content.
>wowtard is filtered by MSQ
Nice.
>FATEs are great but people only do them on current content.
They should apply the fate reward system to the entire game. I love the game, but making new improvements for content present from the beginning of the game that you won't get to use for 300 hours is fucking stupid.
To be fair, FFXIV is my first MMO and I feel my body slowly decomposing whenever I play the MSQ. Apparently it gets better at Heavensward.
ARR is suffering, heavensward is definitely better but the post 50 burnout really lingers.
Any tips to make it more bearable?
Don't play the game, it's trash and you're wasting your time. The gear you're getting now is the same gear you'll be working towards at max level but with higher stats. The game is a waste of time and it's afraid of being anything more than a glorified game of Simon says.
>Zoomer faggot getting bombarded with dislikes

I enjoyed ARR and I kinda miss it's mundaneness. Being the chosen one who everyone dick sucks gets a bit old. Just being a nobody meeting bartenders and other adventurers was great. I still really like Edda's party and how their story was told. I want more of that.
I already wanted to kill myself before starting, so in that sense it didn't feel much different
I inherently like running dungeons, so I forced myself to complete at least a handful of MSQ steps before playing "for real" in any given session. After that I'd just queue up, chat with friends, and RP. I'm pretty easy to please.
Oh, no, really early on it's comfy as fuck. I'm all for small scale dramas, but the structure and logistics of the quests themselves got really painful. Same aesthetic with reduced bloat would be ideal.
Also, I'd like to add that the content cycle has been literally the same since 2.0
>MUH ENDGAME
>MUH RAIDING
>GOTTA SKIP EVERYTHING TO GET TO MUH CAN ONLY DO ONCE A WEEK CONTENT
I will never understand these faggots and I don't want to. Fuck off cancer.
The game has a fucking subscription. People want to do as much as possible to make up for that.
You see, the subscription format for MMOs isn't just valuable for the money it's valuable to keep them addicted.
Man I LOVE playing through brain dead quests on a class with half of it's skills and mechanics missing, no challenge, no need for party play, dungeon finder!!! love that shit
And this story! Oh the MMORPG STORY OH YES! I am the chosen one!! Can't lose, I hate losing and making meaningful choices, this is truly peak R P G

here's a counter retard on the internet with an opinion

the game is only popular with trannies and women
its SO
FUCKING
BAD
Why not just post gachi then?
alright, thanks
What do you play mmos for? Rp and collecting dresses?
You are talking about WOW, right?
it just needs a directors cut or some shit for the MSQ and if you really give a fuck about the story then play the "extended MSQ" or whatever
I feel like they'll implement this right when I fucking finish it and I'll kill myself
So fucking true! WoW >> Final Fantasy XIV >> steaming garbage >>> ESO
wait, hol' up Yea Forums
>people shit on WoW for forcing a rep grind to play reskinned races
>meanwhile, FF requires you to complete an entire storyline before you can access the newest expansion, or just pay $20 to skip it
holy fuck, you MMO niggers are the worst.
In his defense, he's an MMO reviewer and most MMO stories are kinda shit.
Apart from that he's a total retard. Should've done more research or whoever fed him his information was really misinforming him what it was going to be like.
I'm pretty sure it went like
"Yeah post ARR is a slog." so the retard bought a jump potion.
flawless
They are very hypocritical

UNGA BUNGA ME WANT MAX LEVEL NOW
>ME WANT GOOD CONTENT WHICH I WON'T GET UNLESS I PAY
Literally no different from wow's level boost how can people even defend this?
Easy, I don't use such a retarded option.
How bout you lick my taint?
WoW had even less voice acting, it just didn't present its quests as cutscenes with tons of text boxes
>guy who has a job to play EVERY MMO ever made
>states his opinion with clear and indisputable facts
>points out that they literally sell story skips because the story is so fucking awful
NO NO NO! You're WRONG! Me and my trans girlfriend say this is the greatest game ever made! How could you NOT want to sit through 200 hours of unvoiced cutscenes put together by a japanese intern!
I played it for 300 hours and didn't even get through Heavensward. The amount of quests they force you to do is absolutely staggering.
The 100 or so filler quests they had between the end of ARR leading into HW was my least favorite content. Fuck that shit.
why do you think i'm playing
I just bought the game and I'm approaching it as a JRPG instead of as an MMO where you rush to level up as fast as possible, but I do want to hit current content while it's still current. Anyone have any tips?
just take your time there is no point in rushing
patches are released every three months, you'll be lvl 80 and doing the current raid tier long before the next patch hits
The guy bitched endlessly about WoW too. That's how WoW youtubers get successful, by bitching about the game.
Maybe be careful what you wish for when you try to convince WoW players to play your game instead.
100% agree with him on difficulty.
This game is MIND NUMBINGLY BRAIN DEAD for every level until you get to extreme trials and raids.
I remember classic wow, even on dungeons people had to know their shit, CC right or everyone would die, shit like that make the game interesting. But FFXIV has ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFICULTY until you get to hardcore raids, it's so boring idk how I got to max lvl.
That's my only complaint though, still a major complaint.
It's Final Fantasy you dumbass faggot. People are gonna play it for the story
Yeah, I'm on those quests right now, about to fight Leviathan. I admit, it's a slog, but I'm just gonna take my time and I'll be in Shadowbringers before I know it.
No they're disliking because FF14 fanboys can't handle any criticism about their game and any criticism is received with "BUT WOW DOES X".
I just came by to say those are some very fine pits. Also FF14 a shit.
>I remember classic wow, even on dungeons people had to know their shit, CC right or everyone would die
meanwhile on beta they mass pull dungeons with warriors and shamans 2h tanking

link? watching from youtube.com
it seems the same as I remember.
I've been playing for a month, I'm level 56, and I can agree with most of what he said.
But I also play the game as more of a relaxing thing and I have multiple monitors.
>tank dying at 32min in a low lvl dungeon

Nope, he's just a fucktard that does zero research for reviews.

LazyPeon is dumb and rants about stupid things and refuses to admit he's wrong. But he never gets disliked this much on his videos because there's no rabid fans to defend the other MMOs he shits on.
Runescape is the only good mmo
Absolute yikes my dude, except in regards to ESO. That game is truly bottom-of-the-barrel.
Say what you will about content but I'll be damned if the OST doesn't continue to be stellar.
As someone who's played over 30,000 hours of MMOs in their life I'd have to disagree. The most boring would have to be WoW because you do it all solo, entirely solo, and it's nothing more than spamming the same quests you've done 400 times over the years.
XIV is a bad game but you level via..
>First job
You play the main story and do a few dungeon runs on the side if you're falling behind the exp curve
>Second job and onward
You can spam specific level up challenge "dungeons", run actual dungeons, or do world spawn random events in a group.
wow is absolute garbage on all fronts.
Try doing that with any other class lol, also they died.
classic tranny fantasy drone post, eating shit because good jingles are playing along
>subscribed
Lol, j/k
Wait he went through all of ARR, which is the shitties part of the game, then bought a story skip once he got to HW?
Is he retarded?
Have more than one monitor. I've gotten through the last airbender and am about to watch 30 rock.
Pause during dialogue because context makes what you're doing a bit more interesting.
hence dislikes
Based MSQ filter doing its job
Osrs is honestly a 9/10 game. The mods just need to start ignoring retarded reddit suggestions and hiding poll results until voting stops.
It’s so dumb going to vote no on some retarded op reddit qol suggestion but you see it’s 95 % (21,489) yes, 5% (1,398) no so why bother voting.
Within a few years osrs will have killed itself with shit updates
What does golden icon near nick means?

seaniggers...
>shadowbringers is actually the PLD expansion after all
I love FFXIV to death but the ARR MSQ is torture, there is no way around it.
Back in the day when it was all there was, it didn't feel as bad because you knew it will be over soon and there'll be no more MSQ, also you saw a lot more players around those areas. Now it must be extremely boring to do them, specially knowing everyone says it gets better in the expansion.
Even the devs say it's awful, I wish they would just allow you to skip ARR story, I'm sure a lot more people would stay playing.
>all these triggered trannies
57 days until you DIE
How it feels being a WAR chad
Imagine paying a subscription for a story in a fucking a mmo, what the hell is wrong with you xivfags
How do I calculate full potency of a skill if it is a dot?
Meanwhile at the Legion of doom headquarters.
The story isn’t awful, but the way that it’s presented is. Of course story skips to HW are going to exist when the monotonous fetch questing and padding of 2.x content exists. With ShB release, they did clean up a lot of the MSQ, and I gotta say, as someone who cutscene skipped my way to 70, ShB actually caught my attention enough and is presented well enough that I haven’t skipped any of it. The story is interesting, the pace is good and it really does feel a lot like a single player game.
>pay for one month do all story
>quit
>come back next patch month
>do all story
>quit
Not as good as a WHM chad.
On a scale of 1 - 10 how kino was that cutscene after the first dungeon? For me it's a 10 for sure
Oh man, just finished the MQ.
God
Damn
What a fucking ride.
So it's FF trannies that screech that WoW is timegated and demand catch ups.
That cutscene is even better if you're a WHM because the way quests are made you're meant to level up and get glare and dia after the dungeon. It reaches unmeasurable amounts of kino.
>I am the chosen one!! Can't lose, I hate losing and making meaningful choices, this is truly peak R P G
So every major JRPG?
This is very true, and my only other mmo experience is ff11 before they made it a one player game. l could level grind in ff11 for hours and never get bored, if youre party was good enough youd endup in a trance of pure bliss.
>zenos kicks our ass thrice
>ran'jit kicks our ass twice
>cutscene skippers : And this story! Oh the MMORPG STORY OH YES! I am the chosen one!! Can't lose
Every modern MMO sells skips. Its not specifically because of the story.
Why is Ranjit obeying some fat fuck though, what has he got on him? That he abused Minfilia when she was younger?
He looks like hes an infected or already a Sin Eater, but thats just a guess. Im sure people at 80 already know.
>Start ARR
>Get through it in about a week or so

It wasn't so bad though I only used one class DRG
Maybe it's because I'm a NEET but I enjoyed myself and am excited for SB/ShB whenever I get it.
Why are you skipping cutscenes? I played through arr and hw originally when I was a NEET playing 10 hours a day and it still took nearly a month
