This game has lost it's identity again.... (Ranting Thread)

Everyday my dislike for Lalafell grows ever stronger.

Awww.... Here, take this juicy carrot right from my Lalafell-only FC's garden; it can help calming your anger issues for a while! *pat pat*

Anyways,
I am glad FFXIV is what it is right now. Granted, the fan service is somewhat over the top in some regards (this ridiculous Yo Kai Watch crap was a no-go or gigantic Shanttotos walking all over the place) but this kind of feel, the vibes this game dragged and still drags me in is what other games, especially western MMOs, is missing.


There is a certain profession design that is so FF and exclusively found here, coupled with a fun gameplay and a great community that FFXIV has. And apart from FF Tactics Advance, I can not stand any other Final Fantasy game, they are awful. So if I want to get the sweet of talented artists of this franchise, XIV is a constant deliverer!

If you want to have changes over and over, see how terrible League of Legends and Guild Wars 2 handles their design principles for their professions. They manage to shift solid roles, like tanks, all over the place until they go into the jungle... FFXIV was the first game since a decade to me that actually made valid and purposeful changes (to Red Mage in my example), so they get many Kudos from me in that matter.

Balancing is fine, even though I wonder where the cool stuff for the Scholars is supposed to be as mentioned by some, but I can't say it's unplayable.

Sincerely,
