It's about time to add Coil story mode, isn't it ?

and likely took about as much resource as a story mode coil would take. SE developed a separate version of an existing raid for a specific population of players. That's what the OP is asking for. When they did it for raiders, it was fine and dandy. When it's suggested for non-raiders, suddenly the sky is falling.

Go and actually read about how Savage Coil was created. Seriously. Anyone who watched the live letter talking about Savage Coil and read the dev blogs about it are laughing at your incompetence.

See my comment above. I've seen plenty of people give up on T5, much less on T6-9.

I'll let the census do the speaking when that comes out. For now though, we'll agree to disagree.

No, you're asking for someone's request that isn't for you not be developed. Totally different right?

Yeah, it is actually.
"Keep focusing on your job guys. We want NEW CONTENT that isn't a complete rehash or dumbed down version of something already in existence!"
As opposed to, "Please go back and redevelop this fight because I can't do it, and I have proof that others can't do it too!"

That refers to you right? Because from what I see, he's getting the point.

But you're all missing the point of why people don't want devs to pander to your wants.

I missed it earlier, is 'Hardcore Raider' the new "insult" for people who clear coil? If so, just wow. Please guys, I can only take so many side breaking laughs a day.

i110gear , soon 120 and 20% boost is more than enough "nerf"

I love the plural to singular game. Let me try. You're missing the players around you clamoring for this content. This doesn't affect you one whit and yet you're pissing and moaning about it.

Buh? Hardcore raider is an insult? If you're getting side breaking laughs, they're from your own delusions. There was no insult in there.

I cleared t5, idgaf about story mode. Stupid answer is still stupid. Every new game is on youtube now, kill trash mobs and watch cutscenes in-game is every single fight in this game. You're just a troll (I hope so anyway) and I'll stop replying to you.

So why don't they do it then?

Because they can't (or won't). Watching it as a 2nd party is a good alternative I think.

[Dannythm]

Uh, why are people even arguing this?



You don't decide how devs spend their time, they have this planned already, and I'd say they had this planned months ago.

Another translation of the live eltter on the topic says this:

With the Bahamut's coils completing in patch 2.4, do you have any plans for players who are only interested in seeing the storyline?

I have also been wondering what we can do. With respect to the difficulty, there will be some relaxation, but we also need to consider players who are starting new, so we haven't finalized any specifics yet. I would like it so that at some point everyone could experience the story.

This is absolutely not the case, and precisely why your argument is flawed.
Savage Coil was the original difficulty of Coil. SE have stated at multiple points that they develop content harder than they release it, Savage Coil was them giving us a portion of that content released as initially designed. They've also said the original Crystal Tower was far, far harder too. No development time was actually spent in releasing Savage Coil at all, because it was already there.

After reading all your posts I just finally read your sig. I would just like to tell you that you will likely be getting banned again. It is possible to have a discussion without talking down to others, name calling, and general harassment. At this point I'm pretty sure you're just trolling anyways trying to get this thread locked or something since it offends you so much.

[MidlaneGod]

I'll say it again. Please articulate for me why this would negatively affect raiders at all. The final coil is coming in 2.4. No impact there. You get your raid. Likely the savage modes are developed in parallel, so you'll get those too. How is this affecting you personally if someone can experience a watered-down version of the fights and some cut scenes?

Waste of time and resource, i would rather have SE spend more of their time and resource coming up with more raids and other fresh content instead of recycling old content every patch.

Development time wasted on giving people something they can watch on youtube, which could have gone to something useful.

You're playing a game to enjoy it, not to watch someone else do it.
I do end-game raid yet I agreed with the idea. Many players are forgetting what games are for. Most of you treat games like a job. People shouldn't be left out of a game story because of end-game limitations, after all it's just a game like any other but letting you play with other players. Development time wasted? the dungeons already exist, all they have to do is remove things to make it doable but enjoyable to everyone who want to enjoy the game on a story point of view (this is a Final Fantasy game). I know many people who bought the game, completed the story and then left the game.

If most of you don't care about the story, why would you care about someone else enjoying it? you get your raid dungeon and you enjoy it, let others enjoy the story behind it BY PLAYING IT, not watching someone else do it on youtube.

Please don't derail the topic guys, this is a good discussion. Minus the trolling and name calling.
