Why Is Dynamis Dead

[Shinkuno]

Lol this game has NO WHERE NEAR the issue retail WoW has, as a veteran of WoW for 17 years (05-22)to even try to make the case that two comparable is hilariously one of the most inexperienced comments from someone I think that could exist on the internet

Sorry but this is peak FF14 fanboy. "WoW bad am i right?"

Its a multiplayer game, they all have toxicity problem. Just in different forms or towards a different group

I play both, i rarely experience toxicity in WoW. 1) Because i dont consider getting called dumb as toxic and 2) i can pull my weight so people have no reason to get mad at me.

Yes you wont get yelled at for playing 3000 hours and still failing your 1-2-3 combo in FF14. But ever dare to imply the story is meh at best, or ever expect someone to put in bare minimum effort in a dungeon run. Lets not forget LazyPeon (dont even like him) getting death threats for daring to skip the story cause he got bored by it.

These people are the unique WoW Exodus shavings we got left over that unfortunately decided to stay in XIV.

They're so upset with WoW, that their hatred shines the brightest light on XIV, no matter it's faults. In their eyes, they don't come close to WoW's toxicity dredged into all systems and all people. XIV can do no wrong, and WoW can do no right. Even if Yoshi-P himself pissed directly into his mouth. He'd thank him for the lemonade, and argue WoW has never quenched his thirst so effectively.

I mean can you blame them when WoW has been consistently shitting on their playerbase for the last decade or so?

Either way its still a close minded viewpoint to think that FFXIV is perfect

It always bothers me when people equate x game into toxicity. I've played both for years. I've played FFXIV since 2013 with Wow sprinkled in am I a Wow refugee? I've always thought that people who painted us with such a broad brush were morons at best.

Anyway, back on the Dynamis being dead train, has SE said anything about our situation? Do they even care? Do they hope that 7.0 is going to make us popular? Because I don't see it. 90% of my FC is in a state of constant dc visit. I don't think I've seen post 50 content in weeks. It's grim, at least in the now.

This isn't a Dyna only issue atm, most are flooding to Aether to do content and all other DCs are taking a hit from it. It's what happens when DCs start getting reputations for doing certain things, like Crystal has the massive bulk of RP. They need to just provide incentive to stay on your DC tbh.

This is exactly what they need.

Reduce XP/rewards gained from roulettes and dungeons by 75% while not on your home datacenter and Disable the Road to 80 buff while you are not on your home world.

This way people will stay and do content on their own home worlds, and if they get super desperate, can DC travel to complete a dungeon/raid on another DC at a reduced XP/reward gain.

I am an ex WoW player who quit in Shadowlands. I wouldn't go as far as to say that FF14 is perfect or massively superior to WoW, however the toxic mentality is reined in more in FF14. It is only recently that WoW has decided to address the more toxic elements of the game, in comparison FF14 seems to more actively try and control toxic behaviour. As a result any toxic behaviour I have encounter in FF14 has more passive aggressive compared to the more aggressive toxicity I saw in WoW.

Imagine playing WoW past Wrath

Even though I already have the mentor mount on one of my characters, I’m half tempted to see what mentor roulette looks like on Dynamis…

That's the big issue. DC travel has really murdered the games community at this point. So why not do something radical? I had said previously that I think Cross DC queuing should be a thing, and I think the current problem with everyone clustering on certain servers isn't helping. Currently outside of housing, Dynamis is a net loss for the player. Our economy sucks, our queues suck and our population sucks. And what makes it worse is that leaving is always the best choice. And at that point, why play here? Outside of housing, I don't see it. Again, it's a net loss. If my FC disbanded, I would leave. This place is a joke.
