Can we please keep complaining about everything?

And despite what Yoshi P baits with "improved encounter design" or "improved job design", this will never change, because this is a low-cost solution to hook a lot of low-effort players and get reliable revenue from players who don't care about using any brain cells.

At times I really struggle to see "improved encounter design" on dungeon bosses. It seems to be they do mech 1, then mech 2, then mech 3, and after that just loop an overlap of the three. Makes them feel very spammy and repetitive.
And certain bosses such as Deadwalk 1 and 2 are just bad. Spirited Charge with a terrible netcode getting you hit even when away from the add, or the spinning tea cups that take up most of the fight. And then it's fun that it got the best third boss for the current endgame dungeons.

Healers need to actually matter in content that isn't the highest difficulty. Damage also needs to be more common and unavoidable.

I had a run of the lvl100 fieldstation dungeon the other day, where it did not matter that we didn't have a tank (he kept disconnecting) for the first boss, because the thing was too busy casting easily avoidable big attacks instead of hiting anyone. That's current content, highest level dungeon you can run, and we weren't even threatened as 2 dps 1 healer. That is beyond dumb to me.

Hell yeah I love complaining, thats how you get things changed. You guys should help me complain about open world content being updated/added. Especially Fates and Leves overhaul.

This forum is the twitter of FFXIV.
Sorry this forum is the X of FFXIV.

This forum is more like the Ultima Thule of the FFXIV community, since everyone is wallowing in their despair and negativity, corrupting every positive thought that graces this place.

On the plus side, at least this forum doesn't have that horrible background music.

Good song that would've been a nice one-off, ruined by having it on repeat whenever you are in the zone.

Equally dumb decision to have Smile included in Dawntrail

Honestly, complaining seems to be the only avenue to get feedback through and with that news of people being WIDELY unsatisfied. At the worse case a lot of people quitting. It's just a sad fact.
"Happy feedback" is for when they actually give something new and exciting.

Lack of communication is still my pet peeve with this company, they enjoy their surprise behind the scenes cover ups way too much. Some transparency would be nice for the future.

Agreed. The full version with the vocal and everything was great mood music when you were finishing up those last quests before the end of EW. Having it play every time you enter the zone is a bit much. The worst part is that the Beast Tribe gathering area has a stripped back instrumental version of the theme that would've been perfectly acceptable as BGM in the zone. It's currently the only area in the game where I do the /bgm command to turn the music off whenever I have to go there, but thankfully my Beast Tribe and Shared FATEs are maxed there so I don't have much call to go back there at all these days.

It gets really old when I listed valid complaints about DawnTrail & the Low IQ'ers would complain "You're just a transphobe", completely disregarding what I've stated earlier.

[Akamadoshi]

Wait you are saying there are threads that don't complain?
