That Which He Does Not Play

[Midareyukki]

The Squadron system was really cool. I wonder what happened to that system...

It birthed the Trust system and then got abandoned. Along with the unused Grand Company rank, the fact Squadrons can't go past the trial version of FF14 or how the latest two races aren't featured at all...

I think they plan to increase and Update GCs
But of course I cant explain why they have such long cycles. All those left-over ranks gotta have a future purpose.

Obviously. If anything i'm shocked anyone still remember or even cares about the Squad system. I'll still say it, the squad system was miles better than the trust downgrade we got. :/

Is it really better?
Or do you just like dressing up your companions, directly ordering them, and like having around characters that ARNT the Scions?
Not a slight or anything, genuinely curious. I think both are good personally

:P The mere fact you can directly order them is already in itself a MASSIVE gain. Because while it's cute to see interactions and the Scions expressing themselves in combat, some stuff is just a detriment. Particularly Alisaie, calm down with that LB. Sure, it's endearing, but I'm not always going for endearing, I'm going for "I want to play my darn game, let me clear the content in my darn game". I'd like to tell them when to LB, like a team leader would. Or, you know, force them to AoE the mobs down, for Gunnhildr's sake...

Squadrons are great because they'll AoE the heck out of the mobs. Nothing like seeing your Squadron Arcanist pop down a Shadow Flare while your Archer goes ham and watching the mobs melt in seconds.
