New dawntrial job changes are underwhelming and im not excited

[Bonoki]

Can't believe im saying this but i wish we had Endwalker design back now looking at the DT changes.

It seems like we go through this cycle every expansion. Once 8.0 rolls around, you'll find yourself wishing for the changes made in 7.0 and hear praise on how Endwalker was the best expansion.

Strawman, honestly do you think I was "prasing" EW, I'm just surprised that the design is shaping up to be even more simple.

I will not be singing praises to endwalker, if 8.0 rolls around and I'm wishing for 7.0 again it's likely because 8.0 managed to double down on poor design choices.

Agree but the more you all simp for this that’s what’s you’ll get expansion after expansion.

WOW expansions generally suck as well but at least they take more risk. SE is extremely risk adverse.

I'm severely disappointed in Reaper. They changed the gibbet and gallows animation/sound effects to look worse than they did before. Always wanted green feather effects in my scythe swings *Sarcasm* They're so great with re using assets they took part of the LB3 Reaper attack and just slapped it on to their new skill that looks underwhelming. Just why??

SE won't be happy until the entire UI is filled with clocks ticking in different directions with flashing baubles appearing and disappearing everywhere causing seizures.

The trailer itself I found very blah, very generic, and a little tropey. Kind of makes me think they aren't really putting any effort in - character art for every tank is male, character art for every healer is female, and the typical split between the ranged you'd expect (dnc\archer\rdm being female for example). It's like they aren't even trying to not look like they have completely phoned it in. There's gotta be someone there that noticed that, yea?

I agree that we didn't need more skills, we don't need old tropes and stereotypes, we need serious developers thinking about these jobs and how they all fit together. Skill trees, for all their faults, give players options. Subjobs which is the more classic FF way, gave people options. And please please PLEASE stop cluttering up the UI with endless clocks. I about fell off the chair when I saw they added ANOTHER clock to BLM. With the sheer number of skills we have, we need that space for hotbars, thanks.

I'm starting to get really worried about the future of this great game. They keep tripping over the same shit over and over and over again.

talking mainly about the removal of dps checks on bosses.

Not finding anything about this ?

[Titoulakikoute]

sadly most of ffxiv players are big casual:

they are more worried about how theirs chars looks in game with the new graphical udapte than actual gameplay changes. live with it!


they legit said that we had to wait until 8.0 ( in 3 years) to get something about jobs design LMAO its crazy

The new DT changes leave me with feelings of excitement and anticipation. I look forward to enjoying the new job actions and traits, especially AST. Looking forward to how the team develops these jobs further in the future.

Why are we bothering posting in a bait thread by someone who's a well known disingenuous forum troll.
