Zepla: Endwalker is the Worst FFXIV Expansion I have played

[Nebelheim]

What the heck? When did that happen? I never actually heard about that one but that’s horrible.

A content creator named scottzone i think who was doxxed and harassed for saying they would like more then 4 raids in a raid tier which was there only criticism and loved everything else about the game. But was harassed out of the community for it.

Yeah, great community BTW is basically a meme because this community is the absolute worst criticism wise, you better not dare criticize this game or you will get attacked and if you have a tiny bit of "public appearance", be ready to have your reputation tarnished, if not to have your infos leaked

The only thing that will one day kill this game, be it in 5 years or 10 years or more, will not be Yoshi P, not the WoW players, but the community itself.

Tbh our community can be scary

I always heard that our community is friendly but personally i never built any successful bond/contact in-game.
When i almost did it, ended in a weird and dramatic way.

Most people in-game won't attack you randomly...and that is good, i guess. I mean..why we are considering a bonus such normal behavior?



Now Endwalker is lacking in need for commitment, the Twelve was not used as it should be and my queues take longer than i expected.
Today Primal PF had 4 duty-related stuff open and 14 "others" filled with night clubs, bars and cafe.


Yoshi P is happy about the game, from a complete fail to money printer, his mission is complete, the first arc finished.

i don't know if i feel optimistic about the future.

Whats also sad is the forums has a group that actively went after aveyond and a few others for there criticisms if they still do that and derail threads over any kind of criticism or if someone isn't liked or speculated to be a titanmen alt that starts a thread.

Ill judge it after it happens and we get into Dawntrail.
We went through Covid BS, and SE was 'possibly' taking from FFXIVs success and slowed things down. I jsut wanna have the blind optimism that we are Full speed ahead next Expansion.
Issues have ben brought up many times, Id like to think they have been listening, they have just been silent about it and never addressed it.

Cant say for sure, Im not a Psychic, but I like to belive they will deliver, or at least try to.
Im sure they dont want to be in teh same position for the game like BFA and Shadowlands.
1 bad(ish) expansion, they saw that they can bleed. Patch it up, and make sure to never take a hit like this again.

If FFXIV really is this big money maker, they cant afford to have a Critical Failure.
Hopefully SE and the Devs know this.

It had more to do so with alot of his ideas to "Fix" the games story.
Some of which was questionable and laughable, and even had some narrative Oversights. And he was pretty much saying "Do exactly what these games do, and dont do your own thing. Because I just want more Heavenward"
Which hey, to each their own.

Even if all his ideas weren't that great and essentially wants each expansion to be a copy of heavansward storywise no one should be mass reported or harassed off the forums for criticism or because someone isn't liked or because no one agrees with them.

I used to say and think the same way, i don't know if my history is accessible but you may find exactly the same words there.


The problem is: recently i started to play Warframe again. I played during the beta and always come and go.
Now i am positively surprised by how many farming loops the game has while you can run free and do what you want and how you like (free to play btw).


You have tons of characters (warframes), multiple builds, some core stuff to reach your maximum potential and a decent grim dark lore. I can say the same about Path of Exile. I am able to spend my whole day in Warframe and PoE, i used to do the same in Tera and Mu online but i can't do the same in FFXIV without RP.



I am using Warframe, PoE, Tera and Mu because they have/had farming loops that requires some commitment, however, at the same time they give you freedom like FFXIV does. The last time that i noticed a good farming loop in FFXIV was back in Heavensward. You could attach your relic progression to roulette and crafting. IMO we need more of that and more open world/overworld content.


For EW, my greatest expectations was the Twelve (we even talked a little bit about it before official announcement), now, for Dawntrail, i expect something for Grand Company and open world.

Lol Bro, since you joined the forums recently you're probably not aware the forums have a post limit per day. All they're doing is trying to make you use it up. Can't say posting about this was worth it though.

Sorry, this just made me laugh that someone thought OP is a new user unaware of how the forums work.

I dont know if he got Mass Reported just for sharing his (sometimes questionable) ideas. But yes, nobody should be harassed for any reason. And it should go both ways, not just with people you agree with or because you dislike somebody..

I used to say and think the same way, i don't know if my history is accessible but you may find exactly the same words there.

Just gotta wait and see.
Not snorting copium and saying Everything will be ok, but I dont like to get all excited and make predictions and assumptions. I do like to be surprised though.

Not everyone is terminally online the forums like we are
