Bell might make it through SHB before Endwalker
The post-release patches of HW absolutely blew me away, I was expecting some generic lead up to the next expansion but man, I think it was better than the base HW story. The cinematic lead up to the boss fight on the bridge gave me goosebumps.
man. i remember i was losing sleep anticipating endwalker trailers. having constant dreams playing as reaper. now it’s only 15 days away.
3:30 As someone who play with constant 200ms I can say that, although I agree, It never stopped me from clearing content and enjoying the game as a whole.
Island sanctuaries sound like garrisons, hopefully the world doesn't turn empty
You guys are on the Same Server as Me, probably passed you by during play!
With every passing day the hype gets more REAL. I don't need Island Sanctuary to be a full on Harvest Moon, just gimme a nice little place to relax and build.
I didn't know about the Lyrical Journey thing. I went and listened again to Revolutions and god damn it now I'm crying. THANKS MATT. 🙂
It's always so endearing seeing newbies gush over how good heavensward and on is, especially people coming from wow.
They CANNOT believe that an mmo can have content and a story this good.
They generally split the profession gear at the x.0 patch and merge it later
me playing with 200 milliseconds
😀
I'm glad Matt is a man of culture and gives Revolutions recognition it deserves, amazing theme to a war themed expansion.
Anyone know if he streams FFXIV live? I would love to watch his journey but can't seem to find it.
Welcome to Stormblood
Cant wait for the Data Center travel System. started on NA, even when i was from Europe ( cuz of some friends) and i got so addicted to the game and well.. sadge
I think what he means is dont compare it to current gen animal crossing games, it will probably be closer to the OG Animal Crossing game for the Gamecube.
Who care about Endwalker when you will get +15% dmg for your frostmage. :V
I live in Australia, so I have to play on Japanese servers. My ping is almost 200. I can't wait for Australian servers.
And i hope Blizzard SEES all of this.. And understands. They have lost people. So many people. Because of the things that OTHER games do… That they themselves DONT want to. Like Housing. Everyone BEGGED Blizzard to add player housing in wow… They ignore it. They gave us the garrison.. And it was just a failed expansions GIMICK.. It was cool. Our PERSONAL BASE:. Dead after warlords. All whille what does FF14? Here, player housing. You pay rent every month. But also chance to get a house when a plot of land is open for grabs. Wow has their phasing. They could have done this a long time ago. Housing in each of the cities. Orgrimmar, Stormwin, Thunderbluff, ironforge. Because they CAN expand these cities. To have a phased area. That looks like people live there.. But its just 1 player home vissible.
Leveled all crafting/gathering jobs for an omnicrafter setup but it's not really needed if someone doesn't want to craft all of the current bleeding edge gear. All crafting side content (and there is a lot of it) is available for any crafting job, you can cook a ship with cullinarian even.
Wondering how much his praise of the story is going to drop off once he gets into Stormblood proper.
Bellular is like a kid looking at a cookie jar full of crafting/gathering professions while Matt, the parent, is telling him to finish his MSQ dinner first hah
I appreciate them keeping the DC travel within regions, at least at first. I'm not sure what I think of the idea of a bunch of people who don't speak Japanese suddenly flooding into my server because they heard pugging is better on JP DC's (it is) and all the communication issues that would follow.
As for ping, I play on a JP DC from Brazil. My ping to NA is 200ms and to the JP DCs it's 300ms. You're saying above 100 is not acceptable yet I'm not only clearing savage and ultimates but my performance for quite a few fights is on the top 5% for my job with 300ms ping. So really, over 100ms is beyond doable.
