AT THIS POINT in World of Warcraft

[Ransu]

Are you even trying anymore? If you're gonna spam these troll threads at least put some effort into it.

[Denji]

it's funny to me because for years we had to deal with endless wow comparisons and then for 2 expansions we were finally free from this hell.

and now its back.

the best part is that it's just wow refugees constantly bringing it up.

anyone defending wow is defending their nostalgia. nostalgia is simply the mourning for something that is lost. the only way you'll stop being slapped in the face with that nostalgia-level depression of what things once were is by moving on which i suggest everyone defending wow in this thread do.

just let go. the wow you know and loved is gone and it'll happen (or is happening, depending on who you ask...) to this game, too.

just move on.

Hmmm would you can me a wow refugee considering I've been playing ff14 since 1.0.

I see it all the time too, pretty much everywhere FFXIV has a presence. Shills hate it when their game gets some criticism. Unless they can add something decent to a discussion, I generally just blank them.

it's less shills and more spiritually dead people who have never had religion in their life/had religion in their life superceded by worshipping corporations

I get told to go play wow and i have had an active sub to XIV since 2.0 launch

Sometimes i wonder if we should do what they say and leave XIV and see how things go when nobody actually plays the game.

Its crazy how if you look at the patch number for ffxiv at any given time, the problem the community has with the game is the same as the problems wows community had with the game when it had a similar patch number.

Like my biggest complaints with ffxiv are: class homogonizing, and what op said. And were at like 6.2 or 6.3

What was wows 6.2 / 6.3? Warlords of draenor. The expansion with great leveling, non existent solo only endgame outside raids, and classes so pruned you'd swear it was butchery. They even have garrisons

Problem is too many classes they should cut off all classes but what we had in let us say HW.

It is a mess to balance the amount of jobs in any MMO so they start making them the same but with another skin color... lst unique jobs is probably monk and ninja to an extend.

What happens if you haven't played WoW ever?
Free Trial up to lv 20 nonwithstanding, I mean.

Except that what actually destroyed WoW was the switch from casual-focused gaming to going all-in on the toxic cesspool that is M+/E-sports, and then finished it off with terrible storytelling in several expansions. By contrast, FFXIV is maintaining its focus on casual players first and foremost, and both ShB and EW are widely praised for the quality of their stories (you have to go outside the little negative echo chamber here to see it, but it's practically the rest of the entire internet).
