Thanks for the new mog station items!

Funny how you are breaking the same rule you claim Ama is doing.

Alt or just similar name? Last I checked I didn't criticize anyone for their negative attitude. I may not have put it as nicely as I could have but I didn't criticize people for not liking the items being added. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Its her alt. I actually ran across both in the same dungeon once lol. they had the search comment of "Aya = Ama" and Ama has said on here before that Ama is her alt. Or Aya. She posts on like 2-3 accounts, can't tell which is which these days.

Oh lovely. I guess circumventing blacklists is one of those things that's ok now. Good to know.

The new outfit is very nice looking, but I admit, even I was shocked to see it was $18 and doesn't include a hairstyle, arms or feet.

People est up eastern themed stuff. Could probably list it for 360 bucks and you'd still have people saying lolthanks

Honestly, the only thing I find overpriced are the dye.
I don't understand why I'd need to pay every time I'd want to dye an item. Especially for something that isn't creative in itself. The outfit have the be created. The dye is simply a color. While I don't mind paying for some special snowflake colors, it would be nice if the dye pot would have unlimited charges. I mean... assuming I want to be the purest white mage, having me to pay a new set of dye every patch to dye the new outfit is a bit... bleh.

You can get all the dyes in game though :P So thats just if you want them immediately/dont want to pay the gil.

Hang on a minute... isn't Ama that person that said 30ms is unplayable in the thread about the server move? Yeah, not taking them seriously anymore. Obvious troll is obvious.

Why should people listen to those that twists stories around? Since you chose to derail I point you to this:

TL;DR: If more actions in the game functioned like Mudras, where the Client is trusted without requiring a response from the server, much of FFXIV's clunky action execution problems would evaporate. That's what I think, anyway.
What do you think about FFXIV's overall responsiveness, relating to Ping and in general?

___________________________________________________

After the server move, there are a lot of players who have much worse Ping than before; and many who have much better. That's to be expected.
But the server move basically makes it such that almost every player understands the effect an increase from 70 to 150ms can be to FFXIV.

I think r/Anidamo on Reddit summarised the underlying issue with FFXIV's ping-reliant responsiveness:



The way the Client and Server communicate is (presumably, based on watching traffic via Network Monitoring programs) seems to favor waiting on the server before allowing the Client to proceed. This is quite frankly woefully inefficient and sluggish for a game that came out post-2010.

Legacy players will remember that a lot of the reasons why 1.0 felt so clunky to play was because every single action, including menu actions, would require a response from the server before executing that action. It does appear the same issue is at play, but to a lesser, though still noticable degree.

The following are also affected by FFXIV's tendency to wait on the server for input:
___________________________________________________

>Moving targets being more difficult to hit, as melee abilities start then stop if you aren't inside of the target

>Buffs/Debuffs need a tick to apply, or the next GCD used after them will not benefit from them unless you wait a moment (best exemplified with using Bio then Fester or Bane)

___________________________________________________

Now, my question is:
What do you think? Is FFXIV responsiveness about right? Is it sluggish, compared to other MMOs? Do you like that there is an activation-delay between a GCD and an oGCD being available?
I've seen people fall into one of three camps:
-They think XIV is a clunky MMO
-They think XIV is fine as it is
-They don't notice the sluggishness I an many other players talk about

I'm wondering how many people really think of this as a problem, and if so, how interested they would be in the game being overall more responsive.

If you can't see how slow the game is when it comes to response, I do not know what to say to you. People complain about cleric stance "not working" also has to do with this. The point of saying you see lag even at 30 ms or even at 0 ms is because of the delays this game has that shouldn't be there.

So now not only have you bypassed the forum blacklist feature to continue to 'harass' me by making false claims that I am breaking the ToS but you are now also contributing to the derailment of this thread. How much more of a hypocrite do you have to make of yourself before you wise up and stop?

Mogstation is overpriced. Why should one set of glamour clothes cost 1/3 of the entire game? Surely you can't argue that fact.
