This game needs better + updated guides.

[Bled]

I just started a new character for fun, a thm, and im trying to find what each stat does. I can't. Thats an obvious problem.

I also noticed they don't seem to update the old guides. Like MP regens now in passive mode, but the game guide claims it doesn't.

I hope before SE releases this game they create much clearer and better guides + ensure the current ones are updated to avoid confusion.

Also there should be a message board specifically for noob questions.

your thoughts?

"Also there should be a message board specifically for noob questions."

That is the forum called "NEW PLAYER HELP" it is right below the General discussion.

i finally found this: http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...5e1bf4ab725f29
But only found it from a link from a thread on page 3 or so of the noob forums and not through lodestone (and i was looking).

I hope they realize that their guide system is unorganized and create a very easy to use one with links to the noob forum and stuff when the game comes out. Right now finding info on anything is a hassle.

Googling things is helpful, majority of the time you will find links to posts that are here.

>relying on a third party to get basic information about the game.

I'm not saying anything about you, but this is actually kind of a problem.

Knowing how to get information does not seem like a problem in anyway. Can you explain how using google a Search Engine, to find 1st party forum posts is a problem?

I personally find being resourceful the opposite from a problem.

Bah seriously, is it so hard to walk around town and talk to some npcs and find your way? Why do ppl want a game to play itself. Travel, explore, talk to npcs...

I know right. I played ffxi before the tutorial In windurst and found my way outside and killed things. But grated the game came with a think players manual ffxiv don't just a flimsy book.

But ya I watch yt vids of the starter quests, it does give you details on stuff. Like doing emotes (LL cs) with a lalafell. Even ffxi tutorial don't each you about that.
