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

[Supersnow845]

Has square ever acknowledged the fact that they have shifted the design overwhelmingly towards encounter over jobs at the expense of the jobs but a massive percentage of the raiding community doesn’t even like the modern encounter design anyway

Of course it’s an anecdote but I don’t know a single person who preferred panda to Eden and most people I know who saw all three prefer omegascape

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm just as tired of the content he creates as the comments he makes. Fresh talent is needed. Healers were utterly broken (yes there are a small number of defenders out there) in 5.0 and it's NOT gotten better.

Personally, I do like P3S, P8S phase 1 and P10S, but the rest of the fights kind of sucked.

I think the only bad fight in the Omega raids was O10S, it's kind of slow and the bulwark passing is awkward.

I think the big thing out of all the stuff that Yoshi P has said over the years that really irked me was this article. https://twinfinite.net/features/ffxi...ers-interview/

In particular this section when I'm sure everyone remembers.

Additionally, Yoshida-san described a scenario where White Mage and Scholar are paired up to heal. Scholar is primarily a barrier healer and lacks the ability to cure to the extent that a White Mage can. As a result, the White Mage is stuck doing most of the heals while the Scholar can DPS away.

God please tell me this is in reference to ARR where this was at least somewhat how the healers worked

Pretty sure he was talking about SB.

You know, the expansion where Cleric Stance was axed and the fairy got nerfed.

Indeed that was ticked me off the most. He's not wrong that it happened. He was wrong about when. Late ARR to Early HW, it was just main healer and the off healer was it was called back then. COme 3.3 or 3.4 though, and that was when groups figured out that both healers splitting the healing and both of them doing dps was a gain and everyone knows the story after that. This interview was during the media tour before Shadowbringers released and he made it sound like this was a heavy thing during StB which it wasn't.

Well I mean it was apparently how thr developer who made SB lilys thought it worked so same thing apparently

I just found the whole thing incredibly funny and sad.

At the end of HW:
"The fairy is too strong, nerf it."

At the end of SB:
"The SCH isn't healing enough."
