Final Fantasy XIV Hot Takes

Being in a frontline from start to finish with zero damage done should result in an immediate and automatic 1-week ban from participating in FLs.

How about zero damage received? Nobody pays attention to me when I play bard in frontlines, enemies pass through me :3

Hot takes:

- This game needs more QoL additions instead of one every half a year. They can do research to find things they could add. I googled it and saw many features that would be nice additions but now I and others have to wait for them to be added.

- healers need fixing.

- blu needs more love. Also not to be restricted.

- we should get more classes especially summoning ones. Plenty of ideas left new and old. Wheres our bst,pup and cor?

so you just immediately go from the Scions disbanding to everyone meeting up again and wonder what on earth was even the point of that ending scene.

Alot of people seemed to have missed or ignored that the "Disband" is a Cover. Its...kind of amazing.
The Scions are still around, but they are just no longer a Public Organization. And with the World Saved currently, they splintered off to go Enjoy the Calm and do some other things...staying in contact, and will very likely group up again should it be needed.

The "Scions disbanding" thing didn't even make it through the very cutscene that first talked about it (which made it quite clear that they were really just done being at the immediate beck and call of the Eorzean Alliance, they were still gonna be around), and yet people still act surprised that they didn't actually disband. The mind boggles.

LOL Exactly

I think everyone got that, doesn't change the fact that it is lazy writing that has no impact and no meaning. Same as all the character "deaths" we had to suffer through so far when it comes to the maincast. Cause at some point people don't believe it anymore, i didn't suspected for a second that they let the scions die in Ultima Thule tbh. cause i have seen Y'shtola rise from the grave so often now.

People yearn for something new, if SE wants to just microwave the same old trash over and over again then please maybe don't call the patches newfound adventures cause there is nothing new to it. Zero is just a discount Gaia and now we have to teach her the meaning of life, friendship and how you go potty. I really don't want to believe that the development of FFXVI is actually taking XIV resources but looking at how rushed and lazy EW was written so far i have slowly the feeling that they really relocated most resources to XVI.

The strength of an FF character's plot armor is directly proportional to their marketability.

Just XIV has this problem. Even Paper Mario: The Origami King had the balls to

kill off a partner. Hell, his ghost even shows up.

You're at least contributing something (i.e. keeping yourself alive via self heal or attacking enemy to waste their resource).

Stormblood is a better expansion than Heavensward in terms of both story and content.

Detachable shower heads are awesome.
