Creative Studio III Appreciation Thread [SPOILERS]

[ToodlesElNoodles]

The server decisions really did help for a smooth expansion launch.

[Aluja89]

Appreciate what? The same slop they've been serving? They even made a whole new game and somehow still managed to deliver the same slop.

[seraseth]

The server's have been perfect. Haven't had any crashing, errors or long queues. So that part was great.

The scenery is also beautiful, top marks for that too.

MSQ however was a dumpster fire, and I struggle to find any part of it worth praising.

The cowboy zone I wouldn't say was super well done or anything (no, trust us, it's much faster to wait for mounts than to walk to that place that you can literally see down the road from where you're standing) but it was such a breath of fresh air after what had come before. For a moment I thought that they were finally delivering on what the expansion promised: me going back to being a simple adventurer, wandering around and helping people with their (low-stakes to the world but high stakes to them) problems...

...well, we all know how that turned out.

Aside from that, maybe the moment in the gondola where G'raha was actually a real person for a moment, instead of the mammets with a few generic pre-recorded lines all the scions sent along in their place?

Wait aren't you the one who said this

Yes I did say this after people were being extremely rude and toxic in that thread towards me for respectfully disagreeing with some points. How is this an own, just makes your side look like bullies?

[Keumjo]

Love the music, love the zones, love all the new armor designs, the server stability, the fights have been really fun, and the graphics update really glow up'd a couple of my alts.

The story, well, my feelings on that are covered in the "The Negative Impact of Poor Character Writing on the Quality of Dawntrail's MSQ" thread.

[Nitelancer]

I mainly appreciate their work on ARR and Heavensward.

[MatthiusAbysswalker]

Another Amaurot reskin. Great job guys.

[AnotherHighlander]

bullies!!!!

Uh-huh.

Uh-oh you are being positive, all of the people with the "Here's a link to my 3000000 word essay on why Dawntrail literally ruined my life" signatures they made 30 minutes after early access went live are going to come out of the woodwork

Endwalker made me hate XIV. Dawntrail has made me love XIV again. That's a major win for me because EW was such utter trash that I wasn't sure I could care about this game anymore if DT was gonna flop as well. Thankfully it did not. All the whingers are making its flaws out to be so much worse than they actually are. So pay them no heed.

You saying that while typing those words about Dawntrail is quite funny.
So basically you say you did the same thing for Endwalker, hating it so much you allmost quit but people saying the same thing about Dawntrail are whingers. Good comedy.



On topic:
The dungeons are nice, the zones are nice and the music is nice. I give them credit for that.
The story is stupid.
