in from the cold is so stupid

As others have said, I liked it for what it represented in the narrative. Having a real moment of vulnerability was certainly a nice change, but it was rather awkward. I managed to beat it on my first go (pre-nerf), but it felt like one of those moments when a dev team adds a forced stealth section into their game that isn't focused on stealth. Still, it was well presented and fun so I had no problem with it, other than length. Then again, I like stealth games so I might be rather biased

I wouldn't really want to do stealth again, but head on combat in the dirt and snow with the rest of the soldiers would have been interesting. Not to mention witnessing how the rest of the Sions would have solved problems without their fleshy tactical nuke. As it stands, it felt a little too short for my tastes.

i dont think ff14 is a game where people learn to have patience xD. its pretty chill... but so many people are in a rush

[seraf]

They nerfed this? News to me. I beat it the first time when the expansion came out without dying once. I thought it was pretty easy.

[Bopsheezi]

I hated it not because it was hard, I didn't think it was, but because it was unfun.

[Thaigare]

Its was easy pre-nerf, now I cant even imagine how much of a joke it is...It fit into the story well and was a really really nice and welcome addition to changing things up!

It just seems like carebares just need to be handheld through everything now a days

Man, if you thought it was bad, you would have quit the game if you tried it before they nerfed it lol

Isn't it exactly the same as it was on launch unless you're on Very Easy?

It is.

Honestly, the only thing that bugs me about the instance is that you're railroaded into taking a very specific path through the city that's only discernable via the invisible walls that appear when you get close to them as opposed to them just clearly outlining the area you have to work with on the minimap or some such.

I love everything about it; especially that hot date before.

That date reminded me of Pokemon White/Black when one rode the Carousel wheel with N.

Yeah, I hated this one too but mostly for the reason I hate most of the instanced story bits: the objective isn't clear, or rather, the path to it isn't clear. When you're on at 12 am (to beat the congestion) and you're just trying to get to the next instanced dungeon before you pass out and suddenly the game throws out a story battle thats not really a battle or rather isnt even about the battle but something else and hey there's a timer--no pressure. But yeah figure this one out fast--whoops, you died. Sorry. Pay more attention to our vague hints as to what needs to be done and you might want to figure out how you died. Probably some new mech or attack you havent seen or arent expecting. Great story, right?


Yeah. Hate all of those. Hated them since HW.


You want to make stealth/survival a thing for actual content? Cool. I won't do it unless its absolutely necessary because I came here to play an MMORPG. Not MGS. Its the reason I wont do Bozja and are still stuck in Pyros. And the reason why no Tomb Raider made currently will ever be bought by me. Ever.


I am a BLM main. I don't sneak. I don't do survival stuff. I kill stuff. With fire. Sometimes while dodging. I feel you on this one. It was by far the worst one yet.

In From The Cold is one of the best parts of Endwalker.
