The Lessons Not Learned.

[Ransu]

Did they already play through all of the vast amount of content released on this patch day of the game they supposedly adore and love with all their hearts?

Or, ya know, we're at work. I rarely if ever post on the forums in the evening once I'm home. Its just a time killer for me at work when I need a break from staring at network logs all day.

Then dont read his threads instead of crying about every single one of them, grow up.

Pointing out his lunacy isn't crying lol. Most of his "haters" are just outright making fun of him.

Aveyond is correct and I agree with him, people resort to derisiveness because they disagree with somebody instead of demonstrating that good ole' "Great Community" is actually a thing. 4 months between patches is ridiculously long in my opinion, and it isn't some form of blasphemy to point that out. Reminder, XI gets monthly updates :^)

Its 4 months between every MAJOR patch. The game gets content updates every few weeks between minor patches...Its like you all forget the patches that occur in between or something lol.

You use major patch as an example like they aren't just the same patch, neatly sliced into pieces as not to... "overwhelm the community". Which we all know is a lie, it's to drip-feed it for subs and to give the illusion there's "heaps" of content to do, when some things listed will be as minor as a yellow quest with a single cutscene. Nice bad faith take though.

Nice bad faith take though.

So you'd want a new MSQ chapter, new side stories (Hildibrand), a new raid tier, a new trial, V&C Dungeons and a relic grind, tribal quests etc... all released at the same time? I'd hate that. The large majority of players can't sit down and play the game 10 hours a day and just dumping a bunch of content all into one patch would be stupid. Its not about "overwhelming" the community, its about giving them time to do things individually and not feel rushed. I absolutely loved that savage this tier was delayed a week for example. For once I felt like I could log in during a new raid tier and actually enjoy the MSQ chapter and do the normal raids and watch all the cutscenes at my own leisure and not feel rushed to burn through it all for raid night.

You also act like all this stuff is just "done" before a major patch comes out, but that's not how development works and that's why other stuff is released in minor patches.

Honestly glad my subscription expired Thursday Aveyond. I am finally free from this gods awful game. Please continue being the voice of reason amongst the toxic positivity here.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

The same usual Aveyond haters who just cant handle ignoring his posts, "yeah op is a crybaby" yet they absolutely HAVE to come in his threads and cry about them, that's the irony of things.

your back must be quite strained from having to carry aveyond as hard as you have.

Patch day has arrived. It was an update that I didn’t expect to be quite content heavy, but even so the situation regarding what just released today has to be addressed. The game right now is light on content and for all the hype about Criterion/Variant Dungeons, they released with ill-fitting, extremely limited rewards that will soon leave players without a reason to return to the content for who knows how long. Not like we haven’t run into situations before just last expansion when a lack of rewards for content like CLL made it irrelevant within a span of 2 weeks. A pink mouse, a generic throne, and yet another modern glamset. I truly wonder what about the feedback of people being fed up with these clothes and wanting more fantasy all-class gear is too hard to address. If it even makes it through to the proper channels, but rather than face criticism it seems they’d rather pander to the less-mature subset of players that congregate on Twitter – from whom they can expect nothing but unconditional positivity.

For a blessing, the Manderville Weapons aren’t the dreaded joke weapons from the Weapon Design Contest but all it takes to get one is 1500 poetics? Seriously? Did they forget how much of a mistake it was when they did poetics for Shadowbringers relics as well? Forget “accessibility” – anyone who wants an easy weapon to get can buy one off the marketboard. They could’ve at least spiced things up by...oh wait, the Relic Zones were scrapped entirely this expansion instead of releasing in the .25 patch like back in Stormblood. Any fates with interesting mechanics won’t be seen until 7.X, if even that, with the only other options being overworld fates with basic aoes or Alliance Raids that haven’t aged well in terms of balancing. I cannot imagine what appeal these weapons would have for us veteran players who likely already own a good number of relics, let alone those of us unwilling to suffer through the torment of the Hildibrand quests – with even more of that sort of writing apparently being present in the Omicron beast tribe storyline. Seems like even the Pixies had a darker plot to their quests, and they involved a literal candyland.

We’ve been here before – it seriously feels like the Covid content drought all over again but instead of finishing off with something like Bozja all we got was one of many entirely forgettable modern glamsets and another relic step that made the same mistakes as 5.25’s. Anyone could see the mistakes that were made in the past when it came to all this stuff and instead of improving, they just doubled down and repeated them all over again. How on earth is this ok?

Yes we have been here before. You complain about literally every content this game releases. Go play something else for gods sake. Your crying is getting annoying.

I am sure the other complainers will give you upvotes for that. Enjoy it. I know you kids love your upvotes for some strange reason.

Ok sunshine, you can continue crying about him in every thread he makes, as if you are forced to do so, you just cant stay away from his threads, you HAVE to come in them and cry about them. It's a must for you, a mature person would just ignore the threads, but you have to go in them and cry about them.

That's not very Scion of the Seventh Dawn of you. "We've been here before" The Endsinger tried to kill everybody ever, and the Scions forgave her. What sin has Aveyond committed? ;3

You people would make terrible heroes, what with your inability to not witch-burn those who disagree with you. Poor Ancients, flayed, violated and tortured by fake Scion imposters who snap their rotting, rabid jaws at anything that moves and has not the audacity to shine Mothercrystal Blue....

New glam hat isnt wearable by vierra. A tragedy of lazy ass development.
