What about Friday?
The things I'm hoping for:
– Preview of a graphical update
– Letting us know if are getting one one off exspanion stories or building towards something again
– New character customization options
– Challenging (Job Specific) solo content?
aren't deep dungeons 4-man difficult content? I always felt like that was the devs response for that demand, but people who argue for that type of content act like that doesn't count for some reason.
Hope there’s zero mention of island sanctuary. It should remain an absolute mystery until it just randomly drops in a patch
i just want to be able to play the game again, i decided to go back to xbox because all this talk about ffxiv coming to xbox but i guess i made the wrong choice 🙁 i only had a ps4 because ffxiv so getting a ps5 would just be a waste of money >.<
hopefully i can play ffxiv again one day 🙁 if not ill just get my daily ffxiv dose from your videos^^
Excellent work guys I always enjoy your content keep up the good work.
I dont think they will let skip content for free even more when you see how they talk about ARR when they cut quests of how much they feel for the people that worked on those contents.
I feel like having new players skip all the story by default would negatively affect the game. I think going through the story of ffxiv was one of the highlights of my gaming life and if you put a big skip button when you make a new character, I feel like it would rob new players of that experience.
I have a feeling we're going to get an overview of islands and the new pvp mode. Maybe some mention of upcoming class balance, and a very high 18,000 foot view outline of the next steps for the next 10 years but nothing really substantial on that front. If I could have anything I ever wanted, Yoshi P would walk out dressed like a Spellblade/Mage Knight from FF5 and set a sword on fire as a teaser. Also maybe an ARR revamp announcement too. If I'm being REALLY crazy and out there, an unlock of my server so my friends can finally play with me because we've been locked out for new characters for 6 of the last 8 months.
I really doubt we're going to get much more than light touches on a lot of topics at this point. Probably more of substance in a month or two.
I'm so sad that so many are skipping the entire story. They are reading the ending of such a well written book. I hope that all of us starting at the beginning of a new story will keep everyone on track .. And immersed.
Nope.
The core game will not change.
It is the perfect loop.
There doesn't need to be a change when the only outcome would be lesser.
People that story skip are Paying to Lose (P2L).
Blood weapon changes
I am not surprised by the story skips at all. As great as people say the plot of FF14 is, it's only good when you compare it to other MMOs due to how poorly written most other MMOs are. FF14 has some strong individual arcs within each expansion, but the problem is that their structure often deviates and splits into something completely unrelated and that weakens the overall story. This in turn screws up the pacing and ends up pushing the climax and conclusion of each story into the "post-MSQ content" rather than ending it at the level cap. FF14 also does do a very good job of manipulating your emotions through the music and deaths of various characters. This makes it more memorable and it makes you see the story more favorably. People like to say Shadowbringers is what is the turning point of FF's writing, but I disagree. Shadowbringers is the one odd ball in a mess of writing and Endwalker is able to sell you through pure emotions rather than a good story.
But if you break it down and take a closer look at things, you'll realize how fractured the overall story is. Think about what exactly the main plot of FF14 is as a whole. Is it the Ascians? They're barely in ARR and don't really matter until near the end of the MSQ. They're gone for most of Heavensward. They're gone for most of Stormblood. They take center stage in Shadowbringers and Endwalker. Is it the Garleans? They're present in ARR, barely there in HW, main focus in SB, gone in ShB, and play a small role in EW. What about the Scions? They kind of get absorbed into the Grand Company of Eorzea from SB onwards. You should notice how it's almost evenly divided between the two, as if they couldn't decide what the main focus of the story should be. Is it the Garleans? Or is it the Ascians?
Im hoping for a graphical upgrade for sure
after that solid side activities, i dont even really care what just more options
more Final Fantasy 14 BABY!!!!
speaking of limited jobs, i'd like to see a Freelancer job, let us mix classes and do content in the same way the blue mage does, limit it to previous expansion
I wouldn't be surprised if the main update about the future of FFXIV we get is that starting after 7.0 they're moving to three years between expansions. Patch cycles will be extended like you said and MSQ patches will be beefed up into something like GW2's Living Worlds patches — multi-episode capsule stories with higher budgets (i.e. voiced cutscenes) and more duties.
My pitch for how they could do the renewed starter zone, since we come from the source, there could be another version of us out there on another shard. What if that shard has a cataclysmic event, and it is joined with another and the memory of that warrior of light is merged with the source version. The other version could do tutorial quests, and then witness the end of their world as it it rejoined with another shard. This would be intense, and be a perfect setup for inclusion. In the main timeline, you could be disoriented by these visions of a mysterious force bringing about the umbral calamities on reflections now that the people causing them have ceased. Why is this happening still if no one is setting it in motion? or are they? But I think that is the best way to do it, as it would be disorienting, but doable, and offer setup to the next arc.
One thing is for sure. You can look forward to the phrase "Please look forward to it."
I've wanted NG + to offer XP for alts since it dropped. With how efficient leveling is in PotD/HoH/Bozja the idea of "people will abuse it for XP" is false. I believe XP per hour for those features are much higher than MSQ spam. Give people the ability to level through and enjoy the story again on an alt. I don't want to go back and do NG+ because the loss of progression on my alt jobs is too important to miss with a limited time frame to play each day.
That's too bad, because each expansion it's the same deal. "I want to play, because endgame is all that matters." where FF14 is like "You can totally do that, but it's it more meaningful to work up from humble beginnings to that point?" No! In two weeks, it will be old news! And I'm convinced that eventually, a compromise will have to be made as the story train gets longer and longer. But it just seems the height of foolishness to jump straight to the end, enjoy yourself, and then wonder. "..Where's the content?"
Honestly get rid of the limited job system. It's either a full job or nothing.
The game hit it limit they should upgrade game engine if they want to support the game for 10 years
Arkasodra first for fighting. Lopporits next for crafting or gathering. The omicron for crafting or gathering and we will rebuild that restaurant/cafe. Perhaps…
Would love to see Beastmaster come in as a limited job, I was a BST main in FFXI so at first I was against it being limited, but I realize now that it would just turn into some kind of hybrid like WAR/SMN kinda thing, wouldn't feel that unique. But if it was limited we could have something akin to pokemon and pet battles from WoW
New players/Accounts shouldn’t have that option to story skip or level skip.
I would kill to have a story track where we take the 13th back. Not without merit either given certain quest chains!
