FFXIV is more appealing to casual players

At least, in my opinion. Dunno how many others may agree with that assessment. Yes you can.I always cite this game because it was a prime example of what an MMO can be with a bit of creativity: Guild Wars. The original, not the abomination that was Guild Wars 2.Guild Wars had grind in it, yes, but it wasn't a necessity to enjoy any of the content in the game. You had a max level of 20 and once you reached it, that was all you needed. Basic level 20 gear was the same as the gear you had to grind MONTHS to get.

Make that cool armor hard to obtain. Not because it was better, but because it gave you BRAGGING RIGHTS. Rather than unlocking skills through leveling you could do other activities to earn them; PvP, grinding skill points, or even going out and finding the skill on a boss enemy, then stealing it. Appeal to people's desires rather than exploiting them. FFXIV Gil Make it accessible to both casual and hardcore players. In its current state I'd say FFXIV is more appealing to casual players. What with the weekly limits. It's a cheap way to extend play time. Increasing ilvls to make players constantly feel burdened with the necessity of grinding to enjoy all of the content (such as raids or primals) instead of making the players feel as though they are doing it by choice.

Smart investments dictate not taking risks. Cheap FFXIV Gil If it works for wow it work anywhere else. That's why Warcraft is the blueprint/staple for modern mmos, And by the way, don't take my complaints as a way of me saying I DISLIKE the game. I don't.I'm just saying that there are ways in which you can ACTUALLY evolve and improve, creating an environment for all types of players. That said-- I am looking forward to the combat changes and hoping they bring in more new changes as well. Two expansions, content patches every three months, mechanics tweaks, it is definitively definitely evolving. Dictionaries are your friend.

 I definetly agree, this game hasn't evolved at all with HW. New content has been done exactly same as the old with just a new skin over it, I wouldn't call it evolving. Nico Fuentes And good luck with the fanboys, they will defend this game to their grave, no matter how bad things could go with FFXIV in future. I'm not saying it's a bad MMO, I played 1.0, I played ARR since beta, and I only quit after 3.3 patch because HW was a huge disappointment, not many people realize that this new HW "content" is just reskin crap in the big picture. I also felt like they went even more casual on HW content ( not counting savage/extremes ). But 24 raids, dungeons, story trials..

Stormblood and both are DPS roles

There are only two confirmed jobs slated for Stormblood and both are DPS roles. So the girl at the start that was going toe-to-toe with the monk wasn't a dancer? No....the girl at the start going toe-to-toewith a Monk was...a Monk, bruh Yoshi actually answered why there wasn't a 3rd job. according to him 3 jobs got really tough to balance, he used astro as a example.But why 2 more dps? Like there aren't already enough dps jobs. Seriously S.E. listen to your player base!  I mean, Square heard me Cheap FFXIV Gil . I wanted Samurai to be a dps ahaha. But the reason for more DPS is likely because parties have more than 1 DPS. Yet with this expansion there will be an almost 4:1 ratio for DPS vs healers and tanks. 11 dps for only 3 tank/healer classes.

Yoshi also explained that. according to the data they gather, there wasn't really a increase in tanks or healers when DRK or Astro were released.  Danny Scala That's probably because DRK didn't really introduce that different of a way of tanking, and Astro was overly complicated for healing, all things considered. They need new ways to do things, Buy FFXIV Gil to be able to invite more people to the game.
The housing debacle hasn't helped anything. Bro go watch a live letter everything you have said has been incorrect and now you seriously look like your are purposely trying to nickle and dime until one of the negative things you say is true.

Kevin Hollis And you look like a pretentious jerk. I was going by my observations. I am sorry if I don't live, eat and breath final fantasy. Ok new city, access to garlemand, a new continent, under water areas and an island? Yes!!!!!! Am I the only one waiting for Little Ladies event? ; n; you know what I just realised? 2 Handed Great Swords, Cloud, 2 Handed Katana's Sephiroth, FFVII Remake.. PLEASE, VII Event! i want to see the lyrics of rise song aka a12 song.

There is a HUGE post on the Reddit regarding your customer service (Almost 2000 upvotes). I will NOT be purchasing anything off of the Mog Station until this is resolved and I suggest no one else purchase anything either otherwise you run the risk of bein banned with 0 customer support. Limit Break 3 better be Tachi: Gekko. Cant we have the full song already!? *cries*.  But but samurai. Watch the trailer. I'm more ahead than you. Do you even still have it?. God have ffxiv song lyrics ever been understandable?  The European Fan Festival kicks off tomorrow and we can't wait to see you all there! Thanks to the live stream, you won't miss out on all the fun and reveals. Get your ticket now!

get the wind-up FFX characters

 I would have participated in the art contest if it wasn't open for like 5 countries in total. At a European fan fest. Which has over 50 countries. Will the rest of us ever get the chance to participate in these things? It's really not fair.  "Instead of watching it free of charge days later, purchase our incredibly overpriced stream today! FFXIV Gil We know you wont watch it and just want the minions, but whatever. Money." What about the live stream? I've been waiting for an announcement of when that will go on sale, anyone heard anything?

 If you mean release date for Stormblood that's 20th June and it went up for preorder yesterday on the SE store.   no not the expansion. They have been selling live stream access to the fan festivals and they have yet to say anything about the Europe one. Probably already know but the live stream is now available for purchase. Yup! Purchased it this morning! cant you put some more tickets which arent only weekend pass. "world tour" comprised of Germany, Japan and USA. You guys should do this stuff in other locations too! =3 Make it happen! Make ur voice heard via other means than an FB request.

Those wanting the ff10 outfits they will be available after The Fan Festival in Frankfurt is over. World tour, in Germany, only for Europe where most cant afford to get too. choose other location then Germany each time, Buy FFXIV Gil  Well last fanfest it was in London so they are picking a different location. For main land Europe German is a lot closer and a lot cheaper for the vast majority of the EU player base to go to. Incase you missed it they did have a vote just for the EU fanfest to see where it was going to be held and the player base voted for Germany instead of London or France.

 Is it possible to get the wind-up FFX characters and FFX attires in the Mog Station if you can't get it from the fan festivals? Just pay for the live stream you get them from that as well..  Really hope there's another job reveal. Highly likely to be one I think it says over on the stormblood site new jobs, the plural gives me hope.  New gathering or crafting jobs could be it too. I'm still holdin out hope that Spiderman T-shirt was a hint at a new Photographer DoL class to go with the swimming. I wish to channel my inner Prompto (minus the complaining about literally everything in every breath I take like he did).

BnS TV

Sitting here looking at whale only content that I may not be able to do and me 741 AP. Still no more story content that I have been craving and all I keep wanting is my Poharan pet :Buy Blade and Soul Gold I There had better be a western release of that pet. I got my eye on you. It's not that I don't trust you guys or anything. You have been doing a pretty good job overall. Maybe a few issues here and there but there is a lot of hope for a long lasting run. Still going to be keeping my eye on you guys till the Poharan pet comes. Fix the stability of your shitty client, revise your inventory / auction house management, revise botting issues, revise your pvp system where a hm10 and a lvl 30 player can fight eachother for some reason (higher level means an objectively better due to more skill points)

 just delete 32 bit this trash cannot run on a 32 bit machine specially since i have 100 mbps internet speed yet your support says my isp is basically crap because i get the disconnected error at loading screens. Just tossing it in here, mainly 64bit client just means less ram usage and thats kinda pretty much it, so if you have issues with game takeing too much ram currently then yeah it might help you a bit. Even though I have to redownload it but its going to be worth it :D No more long ass delays. Everything will be boot up; can Wednesday hurry up already .

just wanted to say thank you to the great team and all the hard work they do to bring us this fantastic game, BnS TV, and all the videos i loved the artist that day doing illustrations and ofcorse our Mod ~ cheap Blade and Soul Gold ShenXIII Yehara server. How come after the update I cannot Play anymore B&S? my Launcher just update the Game guard and then the game should be loading after that. But it is not so SAD..please help. Would've been nice if we can download and update now instead of crashing your servers tomorrow. My client does not have the 64 bit settings even after att how do I? there is no use for Moonwater transformation stone anymore!

Now remove gameguard and we will be happy 5ever.  Yh gameguard is weak anyway anyone can bypass it . All it does is worsen the game's perfomance so they need to remove it and find a good replacement. Gameguard will not be present in 64 bit as i have heard. It will. Nodah said it still there on his steam, and Jonathan confirmed on Twitter .  they need gameguard to keep player from playing with mod which is less money for them. actually gameguard not very useful for bot tho. Mustaqim Othman I used to have lots of mods back when I first started playing and I wasn't sure if I want to spend money on the game. Let me tell you, gameguard does NOTHING.

the depth of lore in FFXI was nuts

God rdm/nin solo sky gods for fun. Solo hard bcnm , ksnms for fun too. Loved soloing in sky on rdm. "kids these days" not knowing about <not that long ago>... *Boots up FF. Buy FFXIV Gil No #* Nasomi FFXI is a really good pre ToAU private server if you ever need to scratch that ffxi itch. I liked playing RDM/DRK so much I just leveled DRK for M Kris zerging lol.  I want a career RDM, but I can relate to a lot of those. The feels. Just to cap it all off properly: Hyabusa originally Diabolos Server 99 RDM, BLM, DRK, COR, NIN, THF, BST. Xavier Halcyon Agreed. XI in its prime was an amazing game and it actually took skill, work, and lots of time to achieve things. I love XIV, but XI was pure magic back in the day.

 I'm just thinking about the gear sets for just WHM that I had.. that I do miss. Loved the ultra customization and specific rotations that could make or break you in XI.  I remember changing gear sets just to cast protect in Dynamis. And all the spells!! Then mages had atleast 100 spells in their arsenal. Now, in XIV, we get about 25, Cheap FFXIV Gil though to be fair, 14 is just beginning. Excited to see where things go from here. Nostalgia also plays a big role. I love the game but realistically it wont feel the same playing it today. Back then i didnt call dynamis, sky, etc raids and end game, i just knew them as their name. Youd play with the same people, now you queue up in a system, so you'd get attached that way.

I mean me and one of my best friends to this day remember our first day in Vanadiel, him yelling for a cure because the the bee outside of windurst was too tough for us and i was already running for my life to zone back into windurst... lol. My 4 mains in 11 where RDM, BRD, WAR & THF in 11. And made it easier for me to keep my exp capped and my merits maxed out fast. RDM and BRD where the most depended on support jobs in 11 before 80 cap launched. I pulled with both in merit parties and in endgame.Watching Avesta videos always gave me chills @_@ I was so jealous and inspired. Ff11 took true skill, redmage was an amazing job.

And don't forget Zerg burns we where the drumbeat that kept everything going. But 14 has no support mechanic. Omg i miss that game soo bad. A real MMO when the game use to be soooo hard. Before power leveling and all the easy missions. Yeah the depth of lore in FFXI was nuts. Or how way too op they were, almost broken.Till BRD came. Then we were unemployed for a hot min. Yep Rdm FFXI since 2001 before they nurfed it. Those were the days allright. It was fun to tank HNM Kings when it was the huge hype and you get like 60-70 "...examines you." hehe!

FFXIV European Fan Festival 2017 in Frankfurt have finally begun

General ticket sales for the European Fan Festival 2017 in Frankfurt have finally begun!The tickets for the Las Vegas and Tokyo Fan Festivals sold out really quickly, so be sure not to miss out - buy your tickets now! Heavensturn is nearly upon us! Join the celebrations starting on Dec. 31!  I like that FF14 has a subscription. FFXIV Gil It keeps the whiny, entitled, complaining morons out of the game. Keeps it nicer for the rest of us! Plus who the hell can't afford £9 a month? That's what, two beers? Sadly, these people still exist even with a subscription.

Sadness though....Gamestop is begining to sell prepaid subscriptions at the stores. I'll be honest, FF14 has one of the nicest communities that I've found. Never had any rage quitters or abuse hurlers in dungeons/raids that I've run.  Well I've put over 600 hours into the game so I guess if I'm lucky, I'm at least consistently lucky! Johnathan Haggard They've always had prepaid subscriptions. I used to buy 6 month cards because it was cheaper before they reduced costs on long subscriptions. Michael Natipadab LOL endless supply of people who need because "I need seals" and people who votekick because you try to teach them not to be awful.

Haha I wish buddy, Cheap FFXIV Gil they still infect every server. For you its 9, for me is 9x5 due to foreign exchange rate so its little to big for some people who are not trolls but want to play...Oh sure, unfortunately there will be some decent people who want to play but can't afford it but at the same time a subscription does keep away the wave of trollish dicks that tend to inhabit F2P games. That's more than 8 beers, three very good beers, or even maybe two expensive ones.You say it keeps out trolls and such but I see the same amount of toxic players in P2P, B2P and F2P. Only difference is that those on P2P also usually treat anyone who doesn't play their P2P game like trash.

Lost count of the amount of times I have received abuse because of liking an F2P or because I have a less than perfect opinion of a P2P one.  Stuart Patterson I'm with you there. I used to like an f2p game called Mabinogi before it went into the shithole. I loved the battle system on that game a bit more than I did ff14.

Celestial Guard dissolves manastones

Haven't been able to update my launcher since this update was announced. Driving me insane! I cant get past the NCsoft splash screen. I can hear the music but it doesnt go in.Delete system.cfg from aion folder and restart the game , had someone with the same issue on eu.  lol did yall see the blackfriday - cybermonday deals lol talk about stupid and desperate for money its a joke to think those are deals.  I cant connect to any servers atm. Is there any maintenance on going?? Or my place is also baned?

 I disconnected every time, cant launch the game D: whats hapening?? New dredge mobs give no XP or drops and commander is impossible to kill.Communication please? Any ETA, Cheap Blade and Soul Gold any updates, ANYTHING you guys can tell us about the DDoS or the game?    Rubber banding pretty bad, now I can't connect to the server at all. When tahabata is so cool that was a great game before update. no more abyss stigma npc's, no more sarpan, no more tiamaranta's eye... end of aion maybe?  i am getting send logs just when i launch the game through the launcher.

What is the point of leaving the server up if there is so much lag that the game is unplayable? Take them down and fix the problem already. why i can't create ncsoft account. It says account creation failed... your are not authorized to create an account.? Which right you can remove the Turkish language support is officially an insult to us. Buy Blade and Soul Gold I totally make friends for your friends to quit. Well hey assholes you did of arena uniform slashing ;;;;; end the game for me until I fix this right. how about some updates on the engine and the combat? This game have alot of potention as a action combat.

Will Celestial Guard dissolves manastones when it is completely stocked once it is upgraded to Awakened Celestial Guard? I think aion is one of those games that is already almost over by the serious problems that this taking because of the same admins as step as other well-known games. csoft friends, I do not get the confirmation email account, I've sent since the creation of account 2 times and nothing comes. wtf is happening with AION i cant play cause DC all the time...new update new shits ever do something !!!!!! Can someone say me for Marchutan Protector's set and weapon ...can it break in temperance?
