Trust system

[Valence]

Honestly almost everything that's been criticized in XIV seems to always boil down to their programming or UI departments. Housing, inventory, glamour, viera hats, duty support AI, netcode and character positioning, everything is subpar compared to the MMO competition and I have a hard time finding a reason that could explain a serious issue of incompetence or management when it comes to those departments. I don't know what they are doing, but it's been a systematic disaster since the game launched. In comparison, this doesn't happen in their creative departments much.

The problem is technical debt accrued during the ARR crunch.

I dont raid or do Savage/EX's and yet I'm not fond of the idea of having trusts for Savages, Extremes, Unreal, Chaotic, etc contents. I feel it would not be a cost effective use of Square's resources. That said, I do HIGHLY encourage them to add trusts to ALL MSQ Trials/missions, etc with the sole exception being the Crystal Tower series Aliiance raids.

I advocate for trials/missions having trusts because as someone who regularly replays the MSQ using Trusts for story reasons it is frustrating beyond belief to get stuck at the older trials/missions for 30+minutes while waiting for folks to queue. It kills the flow and immersion and its nearly always during a peak moment when your excitement and eagerness to continue on is the highest.
Please SE, for the love of all that is holy. Before you add trusts to another optional dungeon, give MSQ trials some trust love first!

Have you had the opportunity to get a peek at their code?

[Underscore]

For Ultimates? Are you joking?

No, Yoshi-P has told us time and time again.

[Reimmi]

maybe in 20 years when the games older content is dead like ff11 and needs it
otherwise, please no.

Hi everyone was thinking about this the other day but what about implementing
Trust system for old extremes/savage many Evean old ultimates.
Or perhaps being able to do ultimate solo/undersized party’s

Just what to add that I agree that they should be for endgame and very high level content with groups but while be nice for people who missed out at time or even be able to practice before joining a raid group

Or mabe adding a expanded story mode for things like the dragon song riprised

Maybe the could be a different kind of reward for them

Thank you for your time and thoughts

I will be honest tho at this point you maybe shouldn't be playing a MMOrpg and just a solo rpg because well 14 is MMO not a solo game

Weird as I recall him saying there was no technical debt in interviews.

They can’t do that or the clear rate will be 100% as it’s all artificial difficulty and the house of cards Yoshi-P built so painstakingly will come crashing down instantly.

But I think that this will be their last trump card to play when the game is truly in dying stages to squeeze out a couple more months of $ubscriptions.
