Blizzard isn't trying to bully other companies. They're trying to bully their players as they always have.

The impression I get is that it's not going to work on most of them anymore now that they've finally seen there really is life outside of WoW.

He confirmed that when he promised more content would be coming to the channel in upcoming weeks.

Screw the FFXIV players? Legion Timewalking during Endwalker

I suppose if I gave in and used buzzwords and distasteful language I'd have 80k views like this guy that doesn't show his face, eh? Thanks for the tip!

We shouldn't care about WoW and exchange about the game exclusively.

As Yoshida said "WoW bad, XIV good" is not the right topic.
If you're a WoW player sharing your experience and how it's different in XIV, then that's good.

If your goal is only to take a dump on WoW, you're no better than anyone saying "XIV weeb game".

Perfect, in that vein you can check out the op link, and also this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnhE6NK3BrU

I appreciate the perspective and rare honesty here :0)

Yeah, not clicking your stupid youtube links. Social media is that way----->

Maybe someone there will care.

Self-promoting should be put into forum rules tbh.

Both are modern rpgs while neither is traditional rpg :p (WoW was and one could argue that 1.0 and ARR)

Furry nuff. There are FF related vids on the channel, and more to come with the ebb and flow of xpacs =)

People aren't offended this just ain't the WoW forum.
How the hell does it make people '' offended '' for pointing that out, just what?

So I just watched this video from start to finish and will give a nuanced take: I will have to say -- its pretty disingenuous from start to finish.

1) The whole legendary/covenant point for the Mage Tower: People already were led to believe such powers were not going to be available at the time because they didnt exist in Legion. It wouldnt make sense for an event where you scale down to that content's level to have powers exist and Mage Tower exists as a challenge mode, which was its entire point. Its not a "Blizzard doesnt wants you to get good at the game" point, which is ridiculous -- since you can argue that MT limits current content power to test your abilities of your core class competency. Your follow up point about 'muh carries' during an MT talking point makes no sense either, because MT is a solo instance that you cannot outgear -- meaning its entirely skill based.

2) Then comes to the rewards: "Who asked for this?" is pretty a non-point. Which devolves into a "in FF14 I can dye armor" point. Because we all know every armor set in FF14 is dyeable and they make it always openly available and never behind massive grinds. Lets be real here: I expected a FOMO argument and was let down immensely.

3) The whole 9.1.5 is a last ditch effort point also is complete nonsense. This would be like saying any X.X.5 in FF14 is a last ditch effort to bring people who back who may have unsubbed until the next content patch.

4) "WoW as an MMO ended in WotLK" -- then is FF14 not an MMO? Because doesnt FF14 have a lot of reference point points to Cata/Mists for ARR and so on in their development to relaunch?

Dude I get it, you quit WoW and play FF14 -- stop making it a personality. Its a bloody video game. This is just mind-bogglingly dumb.
