What are you expecting from the dev at the gamescom ?

Me,i really hope they will "enlight" us with how the game is going lately,for SB did not met the quality expectaion at all.

And what i does NOT hope : The Dev saying something like :
"You should calm down,the game is how it was supposed to be,we have new exciting quality content soon,please look forward to it"

Because all the promise of SB has been not kept at all.

And you ? what are you expecting of the Dev ofr the gamescom ?

Nothing but false lies is all I expect from it. The game has gone down hill since they brought out Stormblood.

seems like im not the only one thinking that

Fluff and FUD. These events aren't used for anything more than hyping the game with as little substance as possible.

After Diadem and Eureka, I am worried for the future "never before seen features"" that will be added to this game. I mean what else will they remove, so they can create another zone with FATES?

To answer your question OP, I am only expecting hype and lies.

I expecting nothing to be honest. They will again say lies and false stuff.. and yeah! More lies ~

I'm not going to expect much. As time has passed, Live Letters and similar events have spent more and more time advertising merchandise and discussing things like crossover events and fluff/quality of life features. Neither Diadem or Anemos/Pagos received nearly as much time in the spotlight as things like the companion app and MHW crossover event did. Even when they preview new glamour, they often just show off the female version of any non-combat set and not the male version.

I don't expect or want any story elements to be spoiled in advance, though it'd be neat if speculation was encouraged more through previews of environments/enemies and NPC's who have not yet been added to the game. Some snippets of future music tracks would be neat too.

I do want to be cautiously optimistic, mind you. There will likely be a few nuggets of information that we do not know about yet...though there's a track record of fairly minor things being hyped up significantly.

Now that I think on it, aren't we still waiting for a FFXV crossover? I hope we hear something about that...

Please ignore this comment... I had written what I truly felt but, thankfully quickly enough I realised it’s ffxiv community forum... Gotta put a “lid” on it. Let ppl “vent”... (ppl have rough days sometimes it’s understandable).

Apologies have a nice day

;)

Flashy footage for more inevitably underwhelming content.

PvP content that only a tiny portion of the player-base are interested in.
How to get your hands on over-priced merchandise
A new or returning campaign to get people back for 4.4.
The new trailer for the latest patch or a live letter.
A ton of promotion for non users to get information out there about the game that most casual players already know.

i.e. not much new, maybe some 4.4. stuff. Business as usual. It's all quiet til Fanfest.

To be blunt:

Nothing. I'll believe things when I see them.

I stopped caring and paying attention to it a long time ago...
So, I expect nothing and just play the game.

Must admit its a bit sad to hear that,during HW people were more positivs,but SB really blew on people .....

I expect them to act like everything's fine and completely ignore mentioning the problem with Pagos. I expect them to call the companion app a "success."

I don't have high hopes. I'm jaded because I know SE and the XIV team are capable of much more, but they're limiting themselves due to silly monetary concerns.

Besides that? Maybe something Omega related.

I expect devs be like "Y'ALL NEED TO CALM DOWN" to every salty comment about pair of earrings :)

I expect nothing much. Yoshida will go to different servers and party a bit there while most of the interesting questions might be ignored. Then they might talk how fun Eureka is for the devs and maybe there will be a talk where they make fun of those that view the game more negative now. Otherwise we might get some hype that will mostly just mean samey content and thus I honestly ignore that and I also wont be looking up stuff about FF14 because there is honestly nothing that surprised me positively in the last few months. (And before anyone says it, I still enjoy parts of the game so I will still play it but I am not looking forward to the future like I still was in HW. Thus if 5.0 does not change I might be gone for good)

In the end I just hope I get some new informations on KH3, which is at least a game that I can look forward to from SE.

An announcement that they’re planning to upgrade the character creator and servers for the next expansion.

if only they would care about player wishes :P

"Please look forward to it."

Nothing I'm really looking foward to. what is likely to happen is that Yoshi P will be tooting his own horn about how successful the game has been and how everyone is completely into Pagos, and a lot of to do will be made about the upcoming raid tier.


If anyhing is made about the White Ravens he'll likely laugh it off.

I'm expecting some cool stuff....Honestly!


Shame most of it will probably be watered down though cause "1.0 code"

Funny how the 1.0 code or ps3 limitation ruin everything

Probably just 4.4 stuff but for a big left field thing how about Blue Mage to give something for people to do/learn or a new race.

Let's not forget the limited Dev resources cause almost no one in JP seems to apply for those jobs, I mean it's not like SE works on a international scale. If anything needs to be done is thru the push of the community, to make sure they go in and fix all that "1.0 Code" that seems to be holding them back because the further they go without doing anything about it the further each patch will add on to a drastically harder task.

Honestly what I expect from the devs is nothing, it'll just be pushing the 4.4 patch and the Live Letter at the end of Month with probably either some new items coming to Mog Shop or advertising Fanfest some more. They have become laughably predictable to a point where it's not even funny anymore. I want the game to go and shine its brightest given I stuck around since before Excalibur as a server even existed but at the rate this Expansion has been going 5.0 might be the point where I'll probably unsub if they do nothing new.
