one button rotation,opinion?

[TheInsomniac13]

I would not call it one button rotation but I think they should give us the "OPTION" to layer mutliple buttons over each other so that players can choose a layout that reduced button bloat, and set it up in a way they like.
I think this could if some one invested time into setting there hotbar up in this way, make the game more accesible to people with limitations, without having to dumb down the gameplay itself.

But as we all learn the Devs do not like giving us options, we all get served the same slope and have to like it.

bait title aside,

i don't understand the hate boner some people get when they see other people playing how they want. it shouldn't affect you.

If the game isnt for you - leave, dont use an bot or cheat. In the end it'll only worsen the game... just as you shouldn't listen to the 0,1% raiders....

[TheInsomniac13]

I don't use bots lol, lmao even.
You could say this to anyone for any reason. why do people stick around when they suck at normal trials? its none of your business but they do stick around. so, i think it's rude for you tell people just leave.

Of topic I know but I am actualy one of the people leaving, 7.2 just showed the Devs intent in what direction they want to bring the game and I am not onboard, I spend the remaining gametime I have helping a friend power through Eureka but once my playtime runs out I will not return.

I hope they implement this into FF14 so I can see the forums erupt with complaints about the game becoming even easier and more braindead to play.

In a game where the hardest mechanic is: "guy A moves here, guy B there".

Hate to break it to you, but the JP audience isn't the golden land that you think it is.

Dawntrail media tour build had Sage with AOE Dot that could be stacked with the single target dot. The most probable reason why this was removed is because, believe it or not, JP players complained about it. Something they also want is the ability to extend healer Dot duration to 60s by pressing it twice so they can "focus more on other things without forgetting about DoT uptime" or something like that.

I also unironically read about JP players complaining about Energy Drain on Scholar again and want it removed because apparently, some JP players take Energy Drain optimization to a ridiculous level and basically refuse to use Aetherflow on healing/mitigation skills.

JP playerbase really isn't the promised golden land. They got their own issues.

I think he's being sarcastic.

Sounds like a useful feature for players with disabilities that keep them from managing a lot of separate buttons.
I could even use it for leveling alt jobs that I don't care about learning to play well. (I just click whatever buttons light up now.)

There is absolutely zero reason to keep the 3 button combos in 3 separate buttons. EVEN PVP has a one button combo to reduce the bloat, I have no idea why it's not in pve. The illusion of doing something, the game doesn't have a deep enough system of builds, talents or anything to build interesting stuff or test out rotations, so why bother with the illusion at all? Just reduce the button bloat already and stop pretending.

Final Fantasy XIV already has user-supported auto-rotation. It even has auto-mechanics. You don't have to do anything in an instance anymore, thanks to Square Enix and their policy towards user tools. FFXIV will always be more casual-friendly and disability-friendly in that regard. And Square Enix likes users being able to do this. Thanks, Square Enix!

I think he's being sarcastic.

If you meant me, sadly not. If you meant the person I replied to, possibly yes - but I couldn't pick up on the sarcasm if there was on so I treated it like a normal comment.

Without considering that combos used to make sense since they ALL had varying branching patterns to various degrees in the past, and now they don't anymore for most of them making them an actual question, I do believe they keep it like that because the game is literally conceived as you, the player, playing a music instrument where each encounter is a different piece of music.

Unfortunately, Reinhardt isn't being sarcastic. I've seen some posts from the JP side saying they want expert dungeons to be braindead so they can eat their food and run it at the same time.\

Edit: Its not a big deal, but yes, people want to relax or be lazy across the world. Should a game allow it in certain content is subjective and completely up to the developers.

It's not just JP. I've seen it plenty enough on the western side that players tend to do the content with something else on the second monitor. They don't even consider XIV like a game, it's just a filler to keep their hands busy.
