Out of Evo J 2026!
Sadly could not complete the three peat, my play is very good, but very unlucky decisions.
Onto the next one!

@MarshMeelou Other MMOs try to force player retention and to me that's way worse.
English
@MarshMeelou I personally have no problem doing my clears and then uninstalling for the rest of the patch. In fact that's a feature to me, I want to be able to do other things/play other games and then come back to the raids which are what I enjoy
English
Skip 250 hours of story as you like to play a few hours of raids. But once you finish the raid encounters and get bored, don’t complain about the game having nothing to offer. You skipped 250 hours and more of what else it has to offer.

It’s 2026, we are gonna be 6 expansions deep into FFXIV soon. Can we stop with the weird gatekeepy behavior if someone doesn’t want to play through 250 hours of story to be able to play some of the best MMO raid encounters ever made? Heaven forbid someone asks you a small lore question if they start getting interested in the story after starting the game 10 years late. Are we really gonna keep driving people away with this weird NIMBY ritual? Just use your social skills (lol) and answer the small question, suggest they start a story alt on their downtime, or direct them to a synopsis video on YouTube. Crying about “story skippers” this deep into a game’s development cycle is peak cringe. If they set up a skip to Dawntrail for new characters to jump into the new story arc I and many others feel like it would be beneficial for the game’s long term health. While the Hydaelyn/Zodiark arc is great storytelling it’s also not a sacred cow for people to clutch pearls over. At the end of the day, it’s a game to be played. We’re all better than this and should start acting like it.

@Merrydawg Why not? The endgame is really good, good enough to standalone as it's own thing - Rabbit and Steel is proof of that. I played WoW a lot, FF14 has a better raiding experience than WoW has in many ways. It has a lot of features raiders love.
English
Honestly, if you don't care about story, and you just want to play an MMORPG that's focused entirely around endgame, then I'm not sure Final Fantasy XIV is for you.
So much of it is about the journey, rather than the destination, like how classic RPG's used to be.
If you just want endgame, which is fine, I'd honestly play World of Warcraft instead, instead of trying to push Final Fantasy XIV to be like World of Warcraft.
We can have different games for different people. Final Fantasy XIV is about going on a long and slow journey of exploration, meeting and befriending both story characters and other players, and becoming attached to the world and its mysteries. So many of its most impactful and awe inducing moments are exactly because of that slow journey it took you to get there.
And if that's not your you, again, that's okay. But you should probably find another game.
English
@DemieTournes There's no real "RPG" in FF14 to begin with. The only mechanically engaging part of the game for a gameplay-minded person is raiding. The character progression is abysmal, the story has almost no gameplay. No wonder gameplay-minded people wanna skip to the one good part.
English
The people who engage with mmo's exclusively for the endgame content are core to the issue with the genre. They burn everything to get to the end game, finish it, and squeal for more content ignoring the fact that they skipped 90% of the game.
Also FFXIV is a story driven game.

@snark_talks In no game I ever played do I care about how other players played it. Some people act like the writers are gonna cry because someone didn't feel like reading their story.

@DrClownPhD I think that's actually a fairly recent skit parodying the 90's, but still fun

@franciscobmp_ Eu não gosto de nfs e eu quero que todo jogo de corrida da face da terra se converja em um ridge racer type 4 para playstation .
Português
vocês realmente gostam de nfs ou querem que todo jogo de corrida da face da terra se corveja em um asseto corsa com mods?

EL PRÓXIMO NEED FOR SPEED debe tener gráficos más realistas y alejarse de esos gráficos estilo grafiti.

@CainhurstUmi PSPs are getting more rare and desirable these days though, so if everyone starts hoarding them like that, people who just wanna get one to play their games might be affected as a result.
English
@ripalek @Gacha_Zone @Marcelo09465003 Those are chinese games, they all copy each other. Genshin was copying the heck outta Breath of the Wild back in the day too. This is nothing new, nor is it nothing exclusive to this particular game.

Hoyo shills reaching and seething in the comments
- This architecture isnt unique to video games. The exact place shown is literally in the manga and predates genshin by YEARS
- 7DS had angels before genshin
- 7DS had dragons before genshin
- Idek what this clip means
- Very similar climbing animation. But this isn’t unique to genshin. I thought of zelda at first
- Every gacha game I play has a time change system
The one thing I actually do think is a 1:1 copy is the in game menu. It’s exactly like genshin. This video doesn’t even show it. This video sucks ass
English
@Gacha_Zone It's the cycle of copying, Genshin copies Breath of the Wild, other games copy genshin, etc.
English
@FilichevEvgeny @Roundelay_11 @JoshStrifeHayes It may or may not be a wrong take, depends on the MMO. That's the thing though, MMOs are such a broad genre wich completely different games that only have their big multiplayer aspect in common
English
@Roundelay_11 @JoshStrifeHayes "everything in an mmo is about gear" is such wrong take.
English
If I have to explain what balanced and fair pvp is to another MMO player I'm going to pvp myself.
English
@Jimborgen @JoshStrifeHayes It's fun when the game was built for that (IE classic PK games with bounty systems and incentive for players to group together to protect themselves). There's a reason why games like tibia or eve online have maintained niche but active and healthy communities over the years
English
@JoshStrifeHayes There are actual MMO players who think uneven sadist pvp is fun.
Their opinions should be ignored.

@alexeialestorm @detetivepica Negócio é piratear e nem jogar o bagulho, só piratear pelo amor ao esporte
Português
@detetivepica Eu pirateiao coisas por esporte e não há nada que ninguém possa fazer a respeito
Português
Vms ser sinceros: quem romantiza pirataria não compraria o jogo nem por R$10.
O papo de “preservação” e “acessibilidade” mt vzs é só dsclp esfarrapada pra continuar mantendo o desvio de carácter.
(Esse tweet não é pra quem não pode comprar por não ter condições)
Português
@detetivepica O papo de preservação não é pra jogos que já estão disponiveis em remaster ou coisa do tipo. É pros jogos que são realmente inviáveis de conseguir sem comprar de algum colecionador no ebay porque a versão em inglês do jogo vendeu mal pra kct e é rara hoje em dia.
Português
@Reenlsober Eu não vou piratear não, acabou de sair um fucking Resident Evil novo e o nintendista acha q tem gente preocupado com piratear o stardew valley de pokemon kkkkkkkkk
Português
Me estressa muito quando esse papo de pirataria volta pra essa rede porque, no fim das contas, não estamos falando de acessibilidade ou poder de compra... É só mau caratismo mesmo.

@MaclarenMignea1 @gomeshiro @MorganLfei_XIV That's just a knight. Traditionally in fantasy paladins had always had a theme of religious zealotry
English
@gomeshiro @MorganLfei_XIV “to a higher power” not what a paladin is in my mind. When I think of paladin I think of an oath to a king. A very much earthly ruler. And cover literally is sacrificing your own flesh to protect another.
English
Paladins in XIV aren’t really Paladins and that should really irk more people than it does.
They’re just knights who learned magic.
They’re PINOs. Paladin-in-name-only

What’s the harshest FFXIV truth?

@MorganLfei_XIV The first ever MMO Paladin was an archer. That one's the crazirst.

Genshin Impact Review in 2026
1. Outdated graphics
2. FSR 2 (2022) – 5 years later, still no FSR 3 or 4
3. Only 60 FPS (in 2026…)
4. Outdated FOV
5. No skip option
Note: Guys, listen HoYoverse earns billions of dollars, but they still haven’t added any major improvements since 2022.
