Final Fantasy XIV Hot Takes

[Xaruko_Nexume]

I despise crafting in this game. Gathering is less terrible.
Stormblood wasn't that bad.
A Realm Reborn was very good.
Shadowbringers is better than Endwalker.
Deep dungeons suck.
Bozja and Ureka suck.
Solo Island Adventure sucks.
I can not figure out dancer to save my life but everyone keeps telling me its the easiest thing in the game.
The game would be better served by literally stopping the development of high end content and instead focus on more and more casual stuff. Socialization and events etc.
Healing as it stands is not just fine, its fun.
Warriors need nerfed/redesigned.

People always say it doesn't matter that Zenos helped us in the end and it doesn't matter that he grew up lonely and neglected, he is a bad person and a killer. Okay but that's double standards because the same thing is true about Emet-Selch. It doesn't matter that he just wanted to bring his people back, he has destroyed worlds, killed billions of people, made many others suffer and abused the Galvus family to reach his selfish goals. He's the real psycho. Just sayin'.

I think it's probably just difficult for people to care about crimes they don't see committed on-screen, at least in fiction. And on-screen, Emet's cruelty is mostly verbal.

His and Zenos's bigger crimes are that they're both annoying af.

I know this is supposed to be allowed because I mean, that's what this thread is but... Not even close. You can sit there and discuss how the past affects who a person becomes and their actions, but at the end of the day Zenos' actions were selfish. He did everything that he did without a care for anything besides his own desires.

At least Emet had a purpose that benefitted others with all of the suffering he caused. Obvious if you weigh the amount of crimes on a scale Emet has done more(even if you consider how long he's been around), but the intention is so different.

Oh, and last I checked by psychos tend to be unstable, which sounds a lot more like Zenos than Emet.

Endwalker is mostly suffering prawn that has a somewhat weak climax.
Healing jobs are so samey there could be one healer job.
Stormblood isn't bad.
There should be new scions. None of the old ones should be with WoL in the new expansion exept as a cameo.

lol yeah, no one can change my opinion about genocidal great grandpa so I won't start an endless argument in this thread. I know what I said will be a 'hot take' forever and that's okay. :P

the amount of some venues ads in party finder is absurd. i wish there was a way the gm's could enforce a limit on each venue with the amount of ads they can have up. sure people would try to get around it but thats why you have someone monitor the pf ads lol.

The venues are so popular and I think if SE had a problem with them we would know by now. They should go ahead and offiicially endorse the SFW stuff and create a section in party finder for player created "social events" or something along those lines. I understand many players dont want to see this stuff, but many obviously do. Gibing PF its own section for them, instead of just "other" would serve both those who want to find venues to check out and also make it easier for those who dont want to see the ads and just want a traditional game experiences. Just look at Final Fantasy XIV on Twitch 24/7 there are people at these venues.

lol i been in the venue scene for a bit now. my post basically is pointing out a problem and thats specific venues thinking its ok to have upwards of 8-9 venue ads, creating more then they should. there was a tentative agreement amongst the community for a max of 3. Also i do think they should have a RP tab up in pf for venues. that would leave other open for what some actually use it properly for.
