Let's all brace ourselves for no healer mention in any capacity for the upcoming LL

Currently my question https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...tions%21/page8

is standing at the highest upvotes in both the english and japanese threads last I checked. I won't be able to view the stream as its 2am for me but I'm prepared to be ignored despite how good my points and concerns are as seems to be my lot in life.

I feel like a living example of the "Only Sane Man" trope these days between rl and gaming

a solid ask! i apparently liked it previously on my initial read of the thread. hopefully it'll get actually looked at, but with their history of softball-if-at-all, i'm not going to kid myself.

i tossed a few of my own questions in, but 58/201 (as of posting) pages in ain't gonna get many eyes for likes--which is a weird metric for them to choose by btw, since that's going to be heavily limited to the front and current/back ends of the thread (tapering down as interest wanes or people get theirs outta the way and wait for the LL to happen)

Wow that's a great question, glad it got a ton of likes!
Hopefully devs will actually listen to us this time, especially if the JP community are in agreement.

Part of me feels like they won't ever listen to us, but they did revert bowmages back in the day after massive outcry, so miracles do happen sometimes.
But then again they were dps and we're......yeah...

sadly, while bowmage was rolled back, AST got three lobotomies and players who enjoyed original MNK and SMN were basically just told to shove off entirely--there is no alternative or recourse, those playstyles simply do not exist anymore in ff14. so hopes aren't high.

the time is upon us

part 1 of the LL/6.0-7.0 roadmap was pretty great, Q&A is up next

[SpiralMask]

it appears this Q&A is solely dedicated to lore questions that anyone who watched the cutscenes will know already, despite them not specififying that in the collection thread.

so big softball game today so far.

Spoke too soon.


Suffer.

[SpiralMask]

holy shit he got recon's question and deflected entirely to "we made the content easier this time as usual, just find harder content like ultimates if you want a healer challenge", rather than addressing the whole fundamental disconnect for healers as a whole

rad.

sick.

i am so angry right now i can hardly see.

AND PROCEEDS TO SPECIFIC DPS ADJUSTMENT CALLS

[Chyro]

They totally reworded the question which was about the entire healer gameplay to be just about raid. Welp. Way to ignore the issue and not have to talk about it

[AnotherPerson]

Healer question was mentioned.

Summarized: Healer enjoyment to heal more is only to be taken at a higher level. You can't enjoy more healing intensity or a slightly more diversified DPS for regular level content if you're not a raider.

:/

If they said the same thing for DPS where your DPS rotations for the majority of the players who don't play high-end raids, then they'll see how ridiculous it sounds for majority of the healers who don't always play at that high level. A big downer.


On another note: WHM changes incoming, so that's nice.
