What is your biggest wish for endwalker that you know probably won't happen?

[VanyaMirya]

Why do ppl wish for harder stuff? I quit WoW because I hate Mythics and constant pushing.
I love the casual feel of ff14 and dont want it ruined.

If there is to be harder mode it should never ever be a part of the MSQ. Only something optional. Well that's my take.

My wish for ff14 is
#an endless always assesable crafting bag like in eso (i like to gather)
#more room for glam
#tie haircolor and hairstyle to a glam, pref skincolor too
#something similar to WoWs pet battles (should be optional). One of the few things I miss from WoW
#once you unlock a class, make it so you can start the game with that class. I like alts and would love to be able to start as a red mage, samurai, etc

Eise the game is perfect. I enjoy taking my time and do quest and enjoy the storylinie.

Because not everyone has the entire game left to play and may therefore find it wasteful to squander content into something that requires little to no effort (or, correspondingly, engagement beyond looking at the shiny VFX).

Lord of Vermillion. Anything less odd or roundabout in its design would be "too obvious" for XIV, so that's probably all we're ever going to get.

I would be fine with harder stuff as long as it's optional and never ever forced or a part of the MSQ.
I got a lot left to play as I do every single sidernes I come along.
I like that I got a feel of no rush.
I just joined the forum but i been playing since april, this round. First character i played in beta but forgot my login
I just enjoy that I can play when I feel like it, take breaks for RL without fear of missing out. I would hate for that to be lost because the game become more WoW like

That is the typical suggestion, outside of a faint gradual increase in difficulty over time (what one would typically call a mild difficulty curve) as to increase, in the long run, the accessibility of endgame content for those players who wish never to push themselves (especially since, at present, there is zero reward for doing so until endgame, which then tends to present less a difficulty curve than a... cliff).

That, on the other hand, will have nothing to do with difficulty and everything to do with weekly lockouts, as you'll quickly find upon reaching endgame (though, being so far behind for any raid tier, it's unlikely it will uniquely impact you), which this game gives far fewer means of recovery against than does WoW, even with its Great Vault, unfortunately.

Ilvl and gear never mattered to me. I do the dungeons and Raids for the storylinie nlt the loot, so I prob be fine with lockout
I wish raids could be done solo so I can do them when im way ahead of the lvl so I can enjoy the storylinie without having to worry for wipes or getting grps
But so far it havent been a problem, but i suspect it's because I am a healer so prob easier to get grps

Compare Ifrit to Ravana to Tsukuyomi to Titania and tell me there's no difficulty curve in the game. We max level players are used to it, but the curve is there.

Mmmmh, maybe put it back in its context though. I play since mid-Heavensward so I wouldn't know about what came before (especially when ARR server lag was awful for EU for instance), but I remember Shinryu in 4.0 was quite "hard", so was Orbonne Monastery sometimes, some floors of Omega were painful. People feared the last boss in The Burn. And I heard tales of how hard Mhach, Dun Scaith and some Alexander floors were when they came out.
Now with our gear and stronger kits ,we stomp most synched down content, but back then it wouldn't be so easy. I would say these examples were hardcore difficulty, but they required a bit more awareness than usual, which I think is fair given how much content we are supposed to have tackled when we get to these instances.

There's no trial / raid in Shadowbringers that I felt could compare to these experiences. I know I have become a "better" player, but I can still feel it when some casual content requires a bit more effort from the player. I think that's a shame because there is a lot of potential there, without making the game very hard and dissuasive for casual players. It would also ensure players have a bit more skills at the endgame, which would make the experience smoother for everyone.

Change? Yes. A curve that'd actually ready anyone for more than merely normal mode at endgame, though? No.

It's a rough but, on average, linear slope and then a series of jagged steps.

I think the implication was that for people that played the content as it was released there was at least a slight curve initially back then between certain duties. (Remember all the ppl stuck unable to start the HW MSQ because they couldn't clear that 8 player duty to stop the dragon on the bridge?) However that curve no longer exists due to overgearing and nerfs done for no reason other to make the content easier for the sliver of the player base complaining on the forum because they weren't clearing it. There were a lot of threads and posts about a few of those but I feel like most of that was from the same 1-2 dozen people at most which may have even boiled down to a dozen or less ppl as some could have just been alts.

I just came up with a wish which is never going to happen. But it would be lovely
#an option to have a different name, sex, race, skin+ hair color and hairstyle on your different jobs!
I identify Vanya as a white mage and it would be super cool if I could be a different person for every job. Pref fighting jobs but I would not object to a wish for all jobs to be included.
It should offcourse cost something. Like 20 € pr costumization and it should lock out your options to make alts

Never going to happen but I am allowed to dream
