Final Fantasy XIV Hot Takes

[Jkap_Goat]

I find Emet-Selch annoying, deeply unlikable, and I think his extended presence (among other things in the Elpis storyline...) made for a worse EW experience.

don't worry, I hate him and that ugly cat boy, I find him extremely annoying with the other scions

End of Heavensward Spoiler:

Killing Papalymo only to essentially replace him with Krile was freaking lame. Like you killed him off and immediately substituted the dude with someone sitting on the bench. Papalymo deserved more development and more screen time. Did we get Krile instead because she's cute or what?

I don't think she acts as his replacement at all. They're two Lala and that's it.
If anything Krile is Minfilia 2.0. (generic nice girl with no personality traits). Ironically more than Ryne, who's her own character.

The mere presence of the Scions actively hinders the game's story.

The game tries so hard to make us want the Scions around, but I'm burned out from their presence after 6.0.

Island Sanctuary should include the Chocobo Stable, Marketboard, and Glamour Dresser.

The Stable and Dresser I could see but I think they’d use the same reasoning for market boards as they did with Mor Dhona way back when.

Lots of people requested them to add a market board there since there was a lot of crafting quests and things in the area. But S.Es response at the time was, ‘we don’t want to create a situation where non-city-states are flooded by players because they have market boards’. It’s the same reason there aren’t market boards in Idyllshire, Eulmore or Radz-at-Han.

No doubt they’d pull out the ‘server limitations’ thing too lol. Personally I think market boards should be available in certain non-state areas. At the very least they should put some in the endgame / time stone exchange cities lol

They dont care about leaving every other zone being dead, so why care about the cities? Cause players start there and it would leave a bad impression?

Low-key drives me crazy that they put a market board in exclusionary Sharlayan over Radz -- canonically famous for its trade, complete with a dramatic arc about its trade lol.

I assume it was to keep Sharlayan alive, since so much of the endgame is centered in Radz otherwise. But I end up just using Ul'dah's or the one near my FC house anyway, so can't say that worked on me.

Island Sanctuary should've included instanced housing in exchange for your private one if you happened to have one; and wards should've been made FC only, with all small plots upgraded to medium plots.
