Final Fantasy XIV

game is dead

rip

just like life

Only thing its good for is catgirl porn and even then XI has mithra which are superior.

Shut up poof

but he is true

>sub-based MMO
Never stood a chance

I never knew crafting could be so addicting in this game.

Currently lvl45 carpenter, lvl43 botanist, lvl19 miner

What's going to be the new rates on guild housing?

How is FFXIV compared to other MMORPGs? Especially GW2 or WoW.

I've been enjoying the game single player for awhile now, I think I'm going to take the plunge and try to actually form some friendships soon. I've literally never spoken to anybody online in my life except for posting on boards

Is the /ffxivg/ decent or is it just gay shit at this point?

>2.5s GCD

AVOID /XIVG/ AT ALL COSTS

>we want, no, NEED the WoW money

>Is the /ffxivg/ decent or is it just gay shit at this point?
/xivg/ is cancer, just try your luck talking to random people on your server

How do I make Gil?
The market seems impenetrable. Every niche is already inundated. The only thing I can think of is making a bot that queries the average price history for every item and autobuys anything listed for >2-3 standard deviations below it (ie. things people have mispriced).

Like everyone else, buy it from a gold seller

I was a crafting addict 'til I got into the HW stuff. Sucked the joy right out of it.

What went wrong?

Fuck this exact shit happened to me. I loved making gear for friends, FC members, hell even random people and helping other people level things by making things for them and I wouldn't even charge anything. I regularly made full sets of leveling gear for people even if they only asked for an item or two. Tried to do the same in HW but the bloat on recipes ruined that. Feels so much more tedious and takes a lot longer to make a full set now.

Like other anons said, /xivg/ is disgusting. Start chatting it up with people in your Experts, see if they're on the same server as you. Join Party Finders, help people with clears. Look for an active FC or LS.

Maybe i will buy it today, which server i should choose? i heared balmung has a good community

> i heared balmung has a good community
You heared (sic) wrong.

why?

That's the thing with MMO's these days.
They make the content way too easy so they can be pugged
It takes very little time to clear through the new content

No first hand experience myself but apparently full of circlejerking erp shitters. Good luck getting in, it's always full.

>tfw BnS is dead

Best PVP in any MMO I've tried but it just wasn't interesting in all other respects.

I don't know. I too, was addicted hardcore right up to HW. Week or two after I hit max level I dropped the game like a rock.

In other words 'heavensward was a mistake'?

Basically. They spent so much time making the quests and leveling zones that I guess they forgot they needed endgame content. So they just tossed you back onto the literal same exact treadmill you've been on the entire game, only with less dungeons.

3.3 will save it
I wish, unsubbed in January and keep getting the urge to resub but I'll end up doing the exact same shit as before and wonder why I resubbed in the first place.

I've leveled an alt recently.

The leveling experience is great; even during the 2.0 portions it's great fun assuming you take your time and read all the dialogue and text (quest log updates, item descriptions, etc.). The state of the current endgame is absolutely woeful however: I've not done any of the 3.1/3.2 dungeons, Sephirot, Thordan EX, Diadem or Midas though because after 5 months of Neverreap the idea of doing any level-cap content ever again is painful.

Is the current state of the game healthy?

BnS is still very much alive in China and Korea. How dead is it in NA?

It is like a zombie

>check out the housing areas to scout for potential plots I want to buy when the new wards are released
>Lavender Beds has a couple of super comfy plots and is pretty nice overall
>handful of moderately comfy plots in Mist and plenty of plots I wouldn't mind
>the Goblet is pure garbage all around and there isn't a single plot I'd like in there
why is the Goblet so shit?

are you on a big server?
if you are you're fucked
on my med size server there's tons of little niches to get into, though stuff doesnt sell as fsat

How else would you describe the dravinian army?

Revenge of the Scale?

Wait for the apartments to come out
they're gonna be super comfy, and probably really fucking expensive

>New Void Ark raid
>MOTHERFUCKING OZMA
>Estinien/Nidhogg bowl confirmed
>Hresvelgr boss fight confirmed
>New Hildibrand quests
>New Anima weapon upgrades
>Fenrir can fly
>Guaranteed WoW fag tears

My body is very fucking ready.

Revenge of the Dravanian

Fuck apartments: I want my own house. Plot 29 in Lavender Beds is super comfy. I'm hoping I can nab that one.

I'm on Tonberry, so both these options are out (it's $20 for 1mil here).
Fuck.

Thanks anyway.

Blood for Blood

What server are you on? If its Balmung im gonna have to remove your kebab. 29/59 is my dream home.

you could go try out that week trial they got,i can't say much about gw2 now but when i played when it first came out i quit right after i hit level cap didn't even bother to finish the story

Who C/a/ctuar here?

I'm on Cerberus.

not him but i've made some decent friends on balmung,most of the erpfags on balmung are pretty ok with you if you dont tell them you dont do it too i have met some extreme autist on that server though

When does botanist get stuff that will actually give me a good amount of gil?

why the fuck does blade and soul run like shit? i know my pc can handle it but as soon as 10 people get on the screen the game starts freaking out

i only stay subbed for the catboys

At 50 you can earn some money depending on the market on your server. At 60 you can start getting a decent amount through aetherial reduction (dawnborne aethersand sells for 35-38k a piece on my server and with some luck I can get up to 6 of them from one ephemeral node with fairly cheap market board gear with no materia). I get a few million a day doing aetherial reduction between waiting for scrip nodes to spawn though I do have Miner at 60 too and those lightning clusters go for 800 each on my server.

The good thing about GW2 is that you have a more action combat and no suscription fees

FFXIV is like WoW with emphasis on story/lore and PVE, PVP is shit, crafting has depth and is only for people with time and money

combat is slower than most MMO's, but shares a lot in common with WoW mechanics

the vanilla game was great with content patches everything, this expansion has been devoid of content, you could squeeze a good amount of hours if you play it now

dayum shame too

>no mmofu to sink my days into
