Live Letter Thoughts

[VelKallor]

but I also know that it's very possible that it's another 6.1 where there's not much to do.

If this is any kind of overview, there will be loads to do. The island sanctuary IS NOT DESIGNED to be blown through in a day, its a long term thing and will have more added to it as we go along, and as my FC said last night, this will be a blast. Its relaxing, not tied to any player power, and is meant as a recreational activity to do as you wish.

And my God...the scenery is beautiful.

Theres no hurry. There isnt. No rush no race to the end...so do as little as you want each day. I dont see an issue here.

The snark in this thread. lol

Unreadable thread, lol. I didn't follow the Live Letter as closely as I usually do since yesterday wasn't a good day for me, but I did skim the translations channel in the Reddit FFXIV Discord server. Really looking forward to Island Sanctuaries and the Glamour Dresser expansion. And no Yoshida, I WILL fill it up with carp like you expect!

Everyone be looking to fill it with flowers and minions and stuff, but the truly based people fill their islands with carp.

6.1 gave me 3-4 hours of new content outside of the unbalanced mess that was PvP and ultimate

FF 14 isnt" raid pvp or m plus". if you cant find more to do thats on you, not the developers.

the most important in a game where 99% of content is combat

Um.....wha??? Thats not even barely accurate .

Better than 50 - 60% of the content is story, MSQ, crafting, gathering..where on earth did that come from?

99% of FF 14 is combat?

NO.

Not to butt into a really stupid argument, but the MSQ.. definitely is combat content where job design is at the forefront.

Having gone the entire MSQ start to end 2 or 3 times?...no. There is a huge percentage of non combat MSQ...ALL the crafter / gatherer content is not combat related at all, there are many tribes questlines that arent combat either.

People really calling 10 minute yellow quests content lmao

Many of those are chain quests, that last a lot longer than 10 minutes.

The MSQ where you have to be on a battle job and do dungeons, kill mobs, enter solo instances to defeat enemies and save allies, kill gods in trials.. that MSQ?

And a lot of non combat activity.
