@Zerothiaan @realHogi @Trencheiro What? D4 does not have any P2W mechanics, even less then WoW, and WoW’s only available to single persons not RWF guilds. I don’t really get your take or why is it relevant to this thread. Apart from that, you are right, they spend money on RWF, not on gear though

@arteeshl @realHogi @Trencheiro They pay addon developers, analysts, fly raiders out to venues, etc. Helper gold is maybe the least of the RWF ""P2W"". The answer to the D4 thing is absolutely just RMT though, because Blizzard doesn't enforce against it lol.

The irony in this coming from the RL of a guild that dumps thousands of $ into buying gear from other players every tier

@MohaXtra Pep has always said: is Messi still playing? If so, he is the best. Lies.

🚨🎙️ Pep Guardiola was asked: “Who is the best player in the world right now?” 🗣️ “There are many top players right now like Rayan Cherki, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia, Luis Díaz…” 🗣️ “But for me, the best player is Michael Olise. His performances every game, his stats… he is a very complete player, very skilled, very talented, still young and already in his prime.” 🎤 Interviewer: “Besides Olise, no Real Madrid player?” 🗣️ “Real Madrid have good players like Vinícius and Mbappé, but right now I haven’t seen consistent top-level impact performances from them.” 🎤 Interviewer: “What about Lamine Yamal?” 🗣️ “He is very good, very talented… but after the Inter Milan game, I haven’t seen big standout performances from him.”

@UTDIMole Rüdiger. Makelele. Morata.

Hazard and Courtois excluded, name a player that played for Chelsea and Real Madrid You can't

@WeareManC1ty The team player. Not the players. Huge difference, although I think Arsenal is not that strong anyway.

Games played: Arsenal - 46 Bayern - 44 Psg - 48 Minutes played: Arsenal - 4,140 Bayern - 3,960 Psg - 4,320. Bayern has played similar amount of minutes to Arsenal, Psg have actually played more. Stop the excuses for your terrible style of football.

@realHogi @Trencheiro Max spoke about it earlier. Do you think Liquid or anyone would give them thousands of dollars to buy gold? Using WoW Tokens are literally the worse option to acquire gold in the game. They can boost Mythic endbosses with gear trading / mounts, you name it for millions

@arteeshl @Trencheiro It is a shit take however if you think there is no money going into WoW tokens for those races you are delulu.

@Arsenal_rep1 Bayern munchen in 19-20 won ALL of their UCL matches. Not unbeaten, won. Arsenal couldn’t beat Atletico and Bayer in this year and also, Arsenal won’t even win the UCL, let alone “first in history” :D

💣🚨: Arsenal is set to receive the golden champions league trophy if they go unbeaten in the champions league, it will be the first in history...

@LegacySiu Eto’o

Name an African who has played for Real Madrid. You can’t

@Quin69 Isn’t PoE’s skill tree is mostly passive stat stick like 90% of the nodes? Complexity does not equal a better design but somehow people think it equals that. Regardless, D4 is still hugely successful because of casual players. Cinematics / story is best in the genre too, by miles

pros: - more endgame + the pit was giving d3 chills - art is nice cons: - updated skill tree is ok for first 40mins then its +1 skill, why no passives, or ability to customize skills more deeply? why is it so frontloaded? - paragon board needs rework, needlessly complicated whilst simultaneously lacking meaningful choices, its just another 𝑥 does 90% more damage - itemization needs rework, 𝑥 does 300% more damage 💀💀... resistance, armour, weapon stats just feel like ATTACK and DEFENCE (actual mobile game tier) - item power system. all gear feels like "equip UP Arrow" and replace every 2 seconds until you hit the 850 IP cap, then it becomes playable. - level scaling makes it so most of the time leveling up makes you weaker compared to monsters 💀 only gear makes you relatively stronger to monsters - story bloat, way too much filler for no reason, had to use willpower to stay locked in at points - lots of other minor things but lets be real nobody reading this far anyways Rating: D4 4.7/10 atm

2026 update: d4 still bad

@teyrns Or just don’t be an asshole 🤷‍♂️

to those that feel hurt by this tweet: it's not you. you show an awareness and level of sentience the people i'm talking about clearly lack. if it's been a while, watch some videos and practice your rotation on a striking dummy. we've all been there!

i can feel it. it feels like playing with bots

@NeverSinkDev I think pruning the passives are cool. I absolutely hate when skill trees are mostly meaningless passives. PoE skill tree is also unnecessarily bloated with 80% being str/int/dex passives or +8% spell damage.

DIABLO 4 LOH - FINISHED CAMPAIGN (WARLOCK) FIRST IMPRESSIONS / CAMPAIGN RATING: This does NOT include the endgame, I'll make another post about it over the next days. Let me rip the band-aid right off. It's not great. THE GOOD - 20% OF THE CAMPAIGN Good cutscenes. Good dialogues, some plot twists. It felt like 'old blizzard'. Interesting returning characters. Most bossfights are pretty solid! I was very entertained during those parts! THE GOOD - TALISMANS It's a breath of fresh air for D4. It's not very complex and mostly serves as a stat stick, but I enjoyed engaging with it! THE GOOD - THE NEW TOWN Compact, with all important NPCs nearby. A great hub for the endgame later on. THE GOOD - WARLOCK SPECIALIZATIONS The 4 soulshard-demons you can bind are fun and flavorful! Each of them feels very distinct and imo they're by far the best bit of the whole class! THE MEH - WARLOCK RESOURCE Warlock uses the Demon Hunter D3 dual resource system... except it's worse in every way. You use one resource exclusively for 'Archfiends', essentially making it a nuke on a cooldown. The other one you'll likely be able to sustain near non-stop soon - making it a gear check.. THE MEH - WARLOCK 'ARCHETYPES It's an illusion of choice. Most archetypes corner you into a couple of skills/subskills and everything else just doesn't make sense. For instance, if you want to go Abyss/Shadowform, you basically are stuck with ~5-10 skills/subskills that make sense. Everything else just doesn't fit. May change in the endgame maybe. THE MEH - NEW ZONE Not memorable. Not terrible. THE BAD - TECHNICAL ISSUES 5+ crashes. I had to redo a lot of quests and areas. Dialogues and volume are a mess. NPC dialogues would frequently get completely cut out in the middle, during combat midsentence most of the time. THE BAD - THE 80% FILLER IN THE CAMPAIGN It's the WORST kind of filler. Slaying random mobs until something happens. Riding through zones of idle enemies, often very monotonous dialogues. WAITING - sometimes you wait for 5-20 seconds for the NPCs to get to the next 'phase'. I was actively yawning. The game would've been much better if they'd left the 20% good campaign bits and you'd simply have to fight through areas oldschool like in D2. THE BAD - SKILL TREEE ALL passives are gone. Yes, you get 3 major-subtypes of every skill now, instead of two, but was this trade worth it? For me personally: no. Absolutely not. I suspect this makes balancing the game a lot easier. It's also very boring. THE BAD - (SOME) VISUALS I dislike the look of many warlock skills. They look somewhat goofy. The demon-eye turret and 'Rampage' look like they escaped D3. Ironically I loved the D2R warlock visuals and it's sad to see them be so poor here. Graphically some 'new' enemies are D3 enemies repolished and feel a bit out of place. OVERALL RATING (UNTIL CAMPAIGN END) 5/10. Talismans are great. The campaign is 20% great and 80% terrible. Warlock is OK The new skilltree has no passives. The new zone is entirely forgettable. I'd like to note again that the endgame may be a lot better. I actually expect it to be a lot better. Did you play the new campaign? What is your impression? Do you agree with my POV?

@Danichels_11 Zambrotta

Name an Italian that has played for Fc Barcelona You can’t

@Merrydawg As a WoW refugee back in 2020, I rushed through the MSQ. I haven’t the foggiest what is actually going on. Despite that, I enjoyed raiding, because encounter design is top quality. Now I’m preparing to go NG+, because I’m curious. Don’t force others how to play a game.

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.

@EndymionYT Just because you met a single shitty guild, doesn’t mean it’s the entirety of the community. FFXIV community is by far the best in online gaming. Give it a try :)

If they actually managed to turn FFXIV into a single player game I would play it. I played the game originally during A Realm Reborn & its community was a nightmare to deal with. I remember trying to join some guild so I could do endgame, these mfers had me applying like it was a job application. Asking me when I was free, my strengths weaknesses, what I was looking for in a clan long term & whether I could support them further. I missed one “raid practice” cause I went to a concert in real life obviously & they kicked me out & blocked me. 🤣 they treat the game like it matters more than real life. Fuck that, anyway if they do single player I’m all in. As long as I don’t have to deal with people like that ever again. They wanted me to work it as a second job irl with no pay? Fuck outta here it’s a video game

@MightyKeef I like this takes from non technical folks. This is how the internet works. If a lot of people try to access a service, no matter how many places are there for people in the server, it will take time to process them. Queues are essentially a safety mechanism.

Name a better duo than Blizzard and shitty launches?

@ffxivcatdad Why is it so bad if others want to play the game differently? I beat the MSQ. I wouldn’t mind if others would like to skip it. If they’re forced to do the MSQ, they might not want to experience the game at all. Even if they do the MSQ, after they can complain about no content

Every single expansion drop someone like this guy comes up with this same discourse FFXIV is a Final Fantasy story first and an MMO second, If you skip the story you have to understand that yes, you're skipping 80% of the game. I WILL judge you for skipping MSQ.

@Thiccrespect @EchoGuild It is all the same nowadays anyway... People buy boosts, get gear and then have no idea what to do with the character. Anyway, Blizzard won't implement it, because boosting means a lot of gold bought, much of it through WoW token which is money in their pockets.

@EchoGuild Absolutely not. You'd have noobs in high ilvl gear queuing for keys not actually knowing how to play the character. I think running low keys on an alt is rite of passage making you learn how to play the character properly first.

Curious about WoW players thoughts on this, we have a system to help alts gear faster, but would you prefer to be able to play different classes instantly at your max gear? 🤔

@The_Stat_Guy_10 @UTDBradleyy Still, Robben is left footed

@UTDBradleyy I meant playing in the dutch league and a winger should have clarified my apologies

Every great Ajax number 11 in history was left footed. Mika Godts is the first right footed player to make that pos his own. Mika is a serious talent.27 g/a is nuts. such a rare profile that the last right footed Dutch left winger was Arjen Robben.

@LegacySiu Spain: Mallorca. Girona. Germany: Borussia Dortmund. Hamburg. Italy: Milan. Como. England: Fulham. Aston Villa. France: Strasbourg. Monaco. Just the 5 top leagues, 2 from each. There are many more.
