general

- Loose, poorly put together story: they tried to cram WAY too much into the leveling experience and it's pretty hard to stay attached to anything when you pass the areas in a couple quests - Lazy raid design where they literally just copied the first tiers ideas onto the next two, only fights that have stood out in savage were o3s and o11s - Apart from Tsuku all the trials have been rehashed mechanics with "insert minigame gimick transition"

honestly the only thing I think they absolutely nailed is Ultimate

Both fights were sick

i don't think the raid design was done because of laziness

i think it was to keep things consistent

oh and don't forget eureka

fucking lmao

eureka was great

No

currently ready for hyrdos

that's objectively wrong and you can look up literally millions of descriptions as to why

well i enjoyed it

it's poorly designed content for the type of game

that doesn't make it good

but this raid set was pretty good in my opinion except for god dam ghost train and also midgarsommr a bit

Also raid design is definitely shit, they're just glorified trials

with the same gimmick for the final boss every tier

isn't everything just a glorified boss fight

it's laughable

First tier it was fine, Neo was really cool

there is nothing wrong with having a checkpoint

but repeating the entire format twice was insanely lazy

into a phase transition

no it's not

it's a theme to this raid tier is a 2 boss fights

with a checkpoint inbetween

????

exdeath into neo

that's exactly what I'm saying

kefka then god keka

it's the same thing

what's wrong with a theme

there's no substance

it's cool

the savage exclusive content makes it feels special and epic

except savage isn't special anymore

it's not even midcore content

idk man

not many people get to it

???

that's just not true

do you know how many people suck at ff14

because there's a lot

I killed ultimate

I know people suck

you killed ultimate o.o

but compared to actual raid tiers SB has been all baby shit

i haven't really had time to work on it much but i've gotten thourgh most of garuda...

i personally disagree

if you do ultimate

your a hardcore player

since very few people like actual tens of thousands have cleared it

we've had two fights this expansion that were basically glorified striking dummies

if that's not shit in itself

2?

o1s and o6s

ok ok hold your horses

O1S being a striking dummy was a good thing for people who were getting use to the game

that's not how that works

yes it is

you gotta learn you rotation and shit

i use to do 100 dps now i do 3k

a9s may have been easy, but it still wasn't a striking dummy because it's savage

the first raid tier did it right and got me into a constant state of improvment

o1s was

O1S being a striking dummy probably was done because of how hard A1S was

o1s was more of a striking dummy than the other NORMAL MODE fights

that's poor design

it's wasn't really a striking dummy though

there was a lot of moving around

also a1s wasn't difficult, that's not what stopped people

i think your just a hardcore raider who only wants ultimate

it stopped insanely ultra casual people who did like 500dps, but apart from that it wasn't

just like how i don't want time wasted on blue mage

because it's too casual

Blue mage is a waste of development time

ikr

we should of gotten geomancer instead

just like pagos was

lmfao
