End Game Reviews

[Kommunist]

Lets use World of Warcraft as an example, since it is still the 'best' mmo out there of this genre.

To be honest PVE wise, once you have everything on farm in WoW, you don't need to log on other than raid nights and it is currently the same situation in FFXIV. Whats different is, every 'raid' in WoW have somewhat 10 or more bosses, and even if you have everything on farm it takes couple of raid nights. We currently have 3 bosses to do (not counting t5), and obviously it doesn't take that long. So all in all, i think there is a lack in boss numbers.

I really hope they make the new dungeon a raid on par with coil, since the mechanics design of the dungeon has already been done, tunning/adding mechanics to be raid viable would be much more achievable than starting something from scratch. We also have 2 hardmodes coming out for tome farming so I really dont think if it was a normal dungeon it would add much depth to the overall PvE gameplay.

Inadequate.

By that logic, everything would not have been instanced. Part of community and interacting is competing. Because of he crys and whines of the newer generation of MMO player. This is what we have. A single player MMO.

Let's be completely frank and honest here.

This game is extremely catered towards very casual players. For anyone else the game is too easy and the content is over with too fast.

I've said it before and got bashed but I'll say it again. Since Crystal Tower wasn't in at launch SE should have made CT ilvl90-95ish(like ilvl91,92,93,94). Really is pointless to add lower level content to be new "Endgame", When CoB is still going to be Endgame everyone should be going for. But We'll see how things turn out because 2.2 won't be around for 4-8 more months. Then it will be CoB turn6+ for 2.2 and maybe Super Extra Extreme Primal fights.

I think the only thing that is going to help this game is if 2.2 is like 1-2 months after 2.1.

This game isnt just launched just FYI , is a re-release meaning i expect end game. Not some dumbed down piece of garbage.

Just quit already if it's garbage. Go back to WoW or whatever other hole you came from.

"This game has no end-game. It's dying"
- Every player in every MMO ever.

Seriously, why seek for an "end-game" in an online game that will be constantly updated? There's no such a thing as "end-game", it's just the waiting before the next content expansion.

Yes there is a lack of content at end game at the moment. Where have you been for the last 2 months? Certainly not reading these forums. This is not a new problem that needed YET ANOTHER new thread.

[verily]

ITT: people who joined older MMOs years into their development incorrectly assume those MMOs launched with insane amounts of content and use that as a flawed basis for negative comparison with FFXIV:ARR without understanding/acknowledging ARR actually launched with more content than virtually any other MMO in recent memory, while simultaneously conveniently ignoring that a fair chunk of new content will be added in a major patch just a few months after launch (which, again, is quite an improvement over the majority of MMO releases)

Also ITT: people jumping into Coil 2 months late with a pre-established foundation of 8+ weeks worth of i90 gear via mythology use spoonfed copypasta strats and complain that everything is too easy, yet oddly were nowhere to be found back when the content was new and everyone was undergeared for it- they claim they want a challenge but do everything in their power to actually avoid facing one.

So that's fun, right?

[Zezlar]

It's boring as hell and is going to be for another 4 months at least.
