XIV

STOP playing Square-Enix RPGs.
Ryan Anderson
or maybe it is because your taste has degraded so terribly that you settle for a WoW rip-off populated with ERPers and HIV positive degenerates. It's fucking shit. You missed the train when there was a good FF MMO
Mason Smith
What did you do in XIV today?
What are you going to do first tomorrow?
Noah Williams
Ran roulettes with my friends. Not sure what we'll do tomorrow, probably Eden normal first.
Chase Gomez
I know it sounds stupid to want to buff BLM more but why does Manafont have to be like 180s cooldown? Even 90 seems kind of fair I think
Jack Parker
Why? SE's ethics department has no power over FFXIV.
Finishing leveling up my crafters today. First thing tomorrow, I'll double dip on roulettes to cap tomes faster.
Liam Russell
Yeah, that is absurd that you're the best dps by a country mile, yet you still want more

XIV is the worst FF
>Literally every dungeon is a hallway with ironclad linearity
>Literally every boss is just a dude in a circular arena
>Everything related to PvP is shit
>Open world zones are tiny, empty, have nothing going on, and are separated by loading screens
>Zero player choice in character building (stat choice, skill choice, talents, gear choice, etc.)
>Gear is universally boring (No gear sets, no unique effects, etc.)
>Classes are completely amateurish in their design (combos that only exist to be done in perfect sequence, two separate abilities like Demon SSlice > demon Slaughter that could be done with a single proc, etc.)
>Boring questing with awful instancing, unlike TESO/GW2/etc with unique instanced zones only for questing
>Over-complicated crafting which is ultimately just as meaningless as WoW's because it only exists to make catch-up gear and consumables
>Shitty graphics looks worse than early PS3 games
>Barely any voice acting
>Worse than PS2 tier animation
>Constant dissonance between gameplay and narrative
>Extremely unpolished
>Shit just fades in or out on screen, no actual animation to make it feel like a believable world being interacted with
>Shit MMO hotbar "gameplay"
>Empty areas with nothing to do
>Tons of immersion and lore breaking, inconsistencies, retcons, asspulls and other generic shounen tier shit
>Nonsense lore and garbage forgetable characters that no one even knows the names of
XIV is trash and it needing 4 fucking expansions of backstory, lore, development etc just to lead to ShB just makes it worse. Not a single person who jumped straight to ShB has said its good, the only people shilling it pretending ShB is good are XIV fags who've been subbed to it for 6+ years and have stockholm syndrome for pouring 6 years of their life and money investment of hundreds of dollars into into it. Yoshida said you could jump right into ShB but NOPE, please pour 300 hours of your life into shit just to get to more shit.

This ain't SB and he's not talking about SMN
