On a scale of 1 - 10, how disappointed are you so far with Stormblood news?

[xbahax92]

No one complains about McDonald's constantly advertising and making Big Macs, but apparently here.

Did you just compare apples and oranges? Just because something does work somewhere else, doesnt mean it only has to work on FFXIV as well. And also, I never said that they should completely overwork the formula of FFXIV. Im just saying, they can add or improve things. You are eating a big mac once in awhile, while its formula may stay for years. But a MMO.. You are playing it for years even and that's the difference.

Is there a problem with them being our Ravana/Bismarck mimics for 4.0? I mean it worked before, the only issue there was Bismarck was DoA since you could get i180 weapons via hunts + tomestones.

Yes there is. We are talking about same things for the next 2 years, I wanted to mention again. 2 years of doing tomestone farming and Primals for mounts, weapons and gear. For me, I dont want to do the same thing I did for last 4 years.

Maps will always stay empty, maps don't have any level of convenience that hubs like Idyllshire, the cities and the residential districts have.

You already saying it, they will remain empty. And why? Because they are not properly bound into the story. A MMO world should touch and bind someone's experience and joy for traveling. Why even wasting resources on them and not giving us a cutscenes into a immediate boss battle?!

Some people go there to use /gpose, some people go there because they want to play Triple Triad, some people go there to level their desynth by buying from the vendor, some people go there to do their hunts for their Centurio seals. Azys Lla has a lot of uses that isn't just those three things... most maps do, to be honest, the least useful map is the main hub, which is Ishgard, but it's required for MSQ, so what are you gonna do? Just take a massive crap on the dev team because they made the main city where the story is gonna take place?

Okay. So like 4 people in a server? Nope, Im not gonna make massive crap on them. Im gonna point it out, that nobody really needs to go to those places, which results in complete waste which is actually very sad. AND I never said Azys La or Ishgard are nonsene or unnecessary for the MSQ and should be crapped. Stop putting wrong words in my mouth.

Was this something that OP brought up? What does RDM, SAM, battle changes and character interaction in cutscenes have to do with the 3 things they brought up and appreciate. The OP has 100% no idea of what to do to possibly add new interactions to these systems besides "OMG, we've done this before... All I see is literally complaining and no alternative ideas...

A better character creation could help actually that many NPC's look way more unique to the game than just copies from the character creator?? Building a proper bond to story npc's should be a must in every JRPG. Did you ever check how the Scions looked in ARR? Yda is just a female blond Hyur in low level gear?! And you want to tell me our cutscenes are okay right now? Did you ever watch cutscenes in 1.X?! They're impressive.

Again, stop putting words which I never said. I never said the OP said this or said that. I said, the name of the thread is called "Disappointment of Stormblood News". Whatever that OP said, is his/her opinion. Just because I tried to state mine however ends up as a complain. I wonder why? The answer is simple. There are people like you who are just ignorant.
