Yoshi-P: "If you want more engaging content, go play Ultimate"

Seems like job related information is extra crunched close to release this time. That's honestly worrying.

All the more reason to believe they've done exactly nothing to address any job complaints for them to ignore for another expansion.

We got the Benchmark for Ew in July on the 11th in 2021, and we didn;t get anyform of a media tour until they did the EW event due to covid which took place near the end of October that year which took place over like 3-4 days. So that means we'll be seeing our benchmark sometime soon in the coming weeks and our media tour right before release.

And again according to the panel, they are going to be mainly focusing on the encounters themselves again to make sure they are "exciting and challenging." Another thing that does not bold well in that regard.

The media tour is always about 5-7 weeks before the originally announced release date, so at best extremely late April at worst around mid may

I would've thought that the dev team would've understood that pushing all the challenge into the fights is a stupid idea after Anabaseios, especially since the dev team's idea of "challenging content" is body checks and puzzles.

I hope they actually did take feedback, because what he's saying isn't exactly painting a great picture.

lmao lmao lmao lmao lmao LMAO
they are seriously tripling down on the "the encounters are where you find fun, not the jobs" 100/0 philosophy
ahahahahaHAHAHA

I don't think any healer main needed proof that they do not care about your feedback at this point, but come on. The (melee) DPS and tanks whine about how "bosses are too big now ;_; I want to work for my uptime and positioning!!" and Yoshi goes "hmm you know they're right, fix it posthaste!" meanwhile healers have languished for half a decade and we get the "uhh well 100 is a big number so we're not doing big changes and just going to add things to jobs as we've been doing, please wait warmly for 8.0" LOL

This is so bleak I just have to laugh

What'll be even more fun than the encounters will be hitting the unsub button on the mogstation.

But alas, I will continue to wait patiently until the media tour information drops. I sincerely hope I will like what I see for Sage, but we'll just have to see.

Honestly what’s the most annoying is since they said the jobs won’t be fundamentally changing just yet even if they do add something really interesting to the healers you still won’t see it in 99% of content you do

Like say SCH’s big 100 skill was returning Selene as a unique summon that replaces all the fairy buttons with unique Selene buttons that may or may not contribute to damage and utility- fantastic right

Well yeah right up till you get scaled to any level that’s not 100 and suddenly it’s back to same boring healer design we have right now; so at absolute best we may get a more interesting savage experience if they don’t give us another oGCD heal, at worst nothing at all changes

Ngl I straight up forget I have lilybell sometimes because I'm so used to it being disabled, and even then the times I actually need to cast it are scarse.

I really hope it's not just more healing ogcds though, I'm already running out of space as it is. We could use some pruning instead.
