Such devastation. That was NOT my intention!
Man, I went through this same journey last year and it was an amazing ride! Have fun and I hope you keep sharing your experience!
new subscriber here ~ thank you for sharing the thoughts about ARR ! i wanted to play it soon when i got my own PS 4 or PC uwu.
I played this game for 10 years… this man has explained this in the most funniest way and I love it.. sub for you my friend
Awesome Video! I definitely think I was in a duty with you before. I remember seeing your name 😀
If you love the music now, you'll LOVE the shadowbringers music. The quality of music managed to increase 10 fold.
As someone who had to do the 100 plus missions of hell to get to heavensward I am do glad they cut that out to new players do not suffer. Glad you stucj with it! Earned my sub
I didn't know Twintania had that Limsa Catgirl culture
EDIT: thank god you actually visited newbie hall and recorded that because so many people skip it and are absolutely clueless about the most basic of basics
You can also take a ferry from Limsa Lominsa near the Arcanists guild aetheryte and it takes you right to Vesper Bay that houses THE WAKING SANDS. I wish someone had told me that when I was a new player.
i agree so much with the music part! you can tell the devs truly put so much love into this game. the music is also so well thought out and crafted it’s insane
Wait there’s an item that lets u teleport to the waking sands ?? What is it
As someone like you, who has played innumerable mmos ever since childhood, I joined xiv back in the arr beta and began doing all I could to help new players. Seeing someone else with the same background made my day, and I hope (seeing where your newer videos are) you're still enjoying the game!
Pray return to the waking sands…it still haunts me 3 years later…
as a 11 year wow player, so far the fetch quest are just way to simple, even relaxing, fuck im considering quit wow, ive likes the basic story (still on trial) its refreshing that MY CHARACTER is showed in the moment and not like in wow we F killed zandalar king but jaina (who isnt even in the room) takes the credit, my main issue right now is, ima neet man, working from home, not many friends and in wow im also alone, hard to start talking to anyone too, thats a mess on me
Have played it for a week and at lvl30 really feeling the burn out from arr, its suck a slog with boring writting. The combat is very dumbed down too, its just spamming the same 3 buttons, dont know why the dev would want a player to go through all this. Literally the only thing that keeps me going is that it gets better later but my god has it been a shitty experience
i have a friend name smug cat girl i thought it was you for a second
There is a shortcut to the Waking Sands! Teleport to Limsa then take the aetheryte to the Arcanists guild and then take the ferry from there and youll get there way faster if you don't have anymore tp tickets
FFXIV: Hello Warrior of Light, savior of our world. We urgently need your assistance taking care of this evil that will soon destroy our realm. We have only a small amount of time so make haste to this new evil!!
Also FFXIV: Warrior of LIght, before you save the world, can you go talk to this old Lalafell pimp with 6 women fanning him in the sun and run six zones over to fetch him a bottle of wine? After that, we have rats plaguing our crops. Please kill them and we'll give you enough money to almost by a weapon you surpassed 15 levels ago.
Smug Catgirl is actually Smug Catguy D:
As a new player (literally 10 days ago started) Made my way to HS. I'm honestly loving the game but Hoooo, right after ARR I was so overwhelmed with every blue quest marker that exploded. I get it, there are hard dungeons to each one. But I gotta learn about Astrology first.
Raids scared me at first because I was expecting the worst, but so far they're okay. Mostly everyone has been very kind. Some one or two angry players, only experienced 1 guy rage quit after a wipe mechanic.
Nice review, honest and wholesome, as someone who has clocked 990 days and 8342hrs in i can say is ARR was a slug fest, good thing they cut out about 20 mandatory msq fetch quest in shb expansion. I cant wait for you to make a review on stormblood and shadowbringer exapnsion as I have started the game during stormblood expansion release. Keep up the good work!
my thoughts on Realm Reborn…
Its long… like at the end i felt it to drag a lot. So yes, sorry, but I wanted to play the game… so I skipped a lot at the end as i am inpatient and it was just too long. I read and listened to every quest till close to the ending of ARR
When the MSQ required me to complete Crystal Tower questline, i was like "i dont fing care, skip, skip skip"…. ( firstly, I saw the whole questline when Asmongold did it ) and secondly…. the dungeons were actually very great and enjoyable and I will come back to them, I was just very angry, that I have to do this quest chain in order to continue MSQ that imo does not need it…
I solved my boredom by buying a skip >_>
The humble beginnings of Smug Catgirl you love to see it!
