See the thing is i actually like the game now. The game part. Its low effort fun. Its got a ton of content. I wish it wasnt so rigid with the msq, but whatever that is what makes it unique i guess. But 20 pages of story apologists has me a little jaded.

Id say it is better than pub side but less than or as good as imp side hutt cartel. Its difficult to compare the two directly, one is over the top anime the other is wizards in space. If you are a huge fan of one or the other it probably clouds your judgment, but im not particularly a fan of...

Thats what im running it on. I used to run skyrim on my surface pro2 like 8 years ago so i knew it had the power, but the 7 is so much slimmer including the exhaust vents are like the width of a dime, the little fan inside kicks in to overdrive after about an hour and that's when i shut it...

Welp i got ff14 running on my tablet and im about to finish heavensward. Only problem is i can only play in 1 hr chunks before my shit gets so hot i can fry an egg on it and have to power down for 20mins.

Does the game get more voice over cut scenes as you progess through expansions? ARR had like maybe 5% voice over cut scenes and 95% non voice. I've noticed an increase in hw, maybe 15% are voiced. The non voice over combined with cthulu/lotr/gates of discord random name generator for every...

Look who doesn't pay attention to lore or story. In mass effect 1 you use mass effect to send metal shavings at ludicrous speeds which is what ammo is, except guns overheat which is the mechanic which replicates reload speed/rate of fire. In mass effect 2 they have improved their weaponry by...

I'm not "going on" about anything. "..." kept mentioning ff14 was the only game in history that maintains a consistent story/setting because this and wow are apparently his first and only video games hes ever played.

Your getting mad that rts games don't have a premium writing staff for their lore? FF14 isnt a fucking unicorn, Literally every rpg and mmo tells a story that is thus far, better than this one. You cannot in the same breath mention kai lang or mass effect 3s ending and then defend ff14. The...

Seriously not trolling, why do you think this? D&D forgotten realms setting across dozens of crpgs from baldurs gate and planescape on through multiple iterations of neverwinter including an mmo. Elder scrolls series 5 single player games with multiple expansions each plus an mmo with like 7...

As presented in arr and so far in heavensward, absolutely they are the "good" guys. Have you seen apocalypyo? Tell me your thoughts on the ending.

Um you mentioned wow which i already stated not really a story game and doesn't care about its lore, then eq jumped the shark after 5 expansions? Shit i tapped out of eq when they went cats on the moon and sold my account. Mass effect tells a coherent story over its trilogy, andromeda is a...

Can you explain what this means? I get that WoW changes shit/retcons storylines every expansion (maybe? Idk i only ever played vanilla and then classic wow) but wow isnt really a story game. I can think of no other games where this is a problem?

Well you are ignoring me now but it seems like this is a goal post move? I thought you said the last raid of Heavensward was where I could tell the story was going to get good? is it now only the last 2 expansions?

hey bro, i'm really not trying to nitpick here and please don't take this the wrong way, but this is the apologetics I was talking about. An order of magnitude is 10x better. This hasn't happened, not even close. It takes until level 50 to have the gameplay almost as in depth as a rogue does...

No i was replying to a question. Holy shit is right, learn to read

I played mystic quest on super Nintendo like 30+ years ago? Never been a fan of jrpgs but i judge this games story based on jrpgs limitations. All you are really doing is writing a book, you never have to factor player choice in to the narrative, that book better be interesting. also I give...

One person suggested buying a boost and everyone here shit on said person and told me to just play the story it would eventually gitgud. I wish I had taken that person's advice and skipped ARR. I haven't told anyone they were wrong for playing this game, that's all you guys talking to me. I...

mistaking story for gameplay again, what is it with you guys? The whole time i'm leveling with zero gameplay you guys say at least you have the story (what a garbage story it is) but that's the excuse on why there is no gameplay. Now that I have gameplay "oh you just don't enjoy the game"...

about halfway through heavensward and the story finally has found a coherent narrative to follow. I wouldn't call this good story telling so far, 2/10 maybe but its a far cry from the garbage from before. I think the main issue I have with ARR is the schizophrenic storylines. collect 1...

Unfortunately no, some lying piece of shit assholes in this thread told me that the story was boring, but it was important backstory that I needed to understand the later story so I have suffered through all of this dogshit story cutscene by cutscene. I just met his sister, she mentions that we...

well it's clear as fucking day from the moment you are introduced to the empire in ARR that you are clearly playing for the wrong team. I'm sure it could get more complex but I doubt it could become more explicit. If I get to join the empire, lead the legions into conquering these cities and...

The plot happening or them being annoying isn't exactly my gripe. This plot, a band of bad anime style writing overly optimistic yet incompetent buffoons gets "betrayed" in such an obvious set up that you could see from a mile away is at least consistent with there story, they were completely...

oh fuck they finally give me control of my character so I can walk 10 feet and then enter yet another ridiculously long cutscene. somewhat satisfying looking at alphino being an emo bitch just utterly defeated. Yes you incompetent fuck who took credit for everything I did, you have failed at...

I'm like 30 minutes into this cutscene out of however long it is. please tell me all these npcs are dead and stay dead? fuck alphinaud survived, damnit he was one of the more annoying ones I hoped he died.

finished ARR about to start HS. If I roll my eyes any harder watching this fucking garbage storyline i'm going to need an ambulance. Whoever said this started to get better towards the end of the post ARR content is a fucking liar, this story has gotten progressively worse. predictable as...

made some headway in the MSQ and did all 3 alliance raids in crystal tower, ended up MTing almost everything despite being a sprout. Just winging it and best guessing on boss mechanics the first time you see them and hope you are right. died on the one boss where you gotta stand in the AOE...

interject made its way to hotbar 2 since it's very rare to see an ability I can use it on. I'm noticing the flashing outline more and more but its on super quick cast time abilities like buffs and basic attacks from trash mobs and there's no way I can activate it in time. Seems like any time a...

So i've been noticing lately, especially the last dungeon I did, the iceheart one in the post ARR content near the knight dudes? these dungeons are becoming just long hallways. Does this trend continue through the expansions or is this just because this is filler content before the next expac...

They kind of wrote themselves into a corner with you, depending on your choices, becoming emperor of the entire galaxy by the end of eternal throne. Took iocath, onslaught, jedi under siege to untangle that mess and kinda soft reset back to emp vs republic

I am happy to continue providing content for this thread while you wait for patches and i wait until the game starts or the story to rise above b story anime level. This thread is the game

The thing that bugs me is i cant mindlessly steer while autorunning to an npc while watching netflix on 2nd monitor

Fixed. I see your point that in some crazy ddr style fight it may happen once in a while. Will it ever happen in msq or daily roulettes? Probably no. Will it ever affect me? Probably not. Like i said I've been playing around testing both modes so much the last 2 days that im already used...

Yes but you do realize my character doesn't turn around to shoot, right? That is what I was saying. Do you understand why it seems everyone in this thread has comprehension issues? You all keep saying my character is turning around, he's not. standard behaves identically to legacy except for...

Nah I get it. Legacy system you auto-face shit all the time but it never hampers your movement direction so you just don't care about it when it happens, I got it. That's not what anyone was arguing or typing in their responses, but that's what they meant, I figured it out through actually...

lol clearly you haven't read a single post in this thread, you win, you got me, good troll a+

I'm the one with comprehension issues? You all keep saying that standard movement makes you autoface and turn your character around and hijacks your movement. It doesn't. It never has. Autoface is completely unrelated to movement scheme. Have you not been reading this thread? You think...

No the thing is everyone is saying it works one way, when it clearly does not. Legacy or standard has zero impact on auto-facing in combat. All they do is control your movement. Legacy turns wasd into the left stick from a controller. That's it. That is all it does. Your mouse is then...

They pruned down the hotbar insanity years ago. They also rebalance classes every expac so shit always changing. I haven't played this expac yet but you only have 2 and a half hotbars worth of abilities and that's including mounts and sprint and quick travel and shit. All my dudes have combat...

is fraps still a thing? What do you kids use nowadays? I'm going to record and show you what i'm seeing. Actually you live in my time zone. tomorrow after work come on disc I will share my screen and you can see whats happening, and maybe explain wtf you are saying because none of that is...

I am facing away from the dummy the entire time I am hitting it. My camera doesn't spin towards the dummy, neither does my character. My movement keys still move me in the direction that indicates on my screen. So what are you saying is happening? it happens so fast that my screen just...
