Im going to be a shameful pocket janny and continue the FFXIV talk here, but ARR to HW wasnt as good as people think even compared to the babyfication of SHB and EW, but at the same time it was an ok enough foundation that they just threw out without any real consideration, so now Jobs are just fighting game characters who all follow flowcharts and there is little to no external managing of anything, and thats kinda meh
Disgusting. You don't even own the broom you sweep with.
Also I don't really have all that much left to say now anyway.
get the stones ready! also fairly sure the discussion was wrapping up anyway. I just wanted to lament my mega autistic button masher class.
Completely agree on the gameplay, do think the story for both ShB and EW better stories overall. while the post EW story certainly hurt with it also being done at the same time as ff16 and Yoshi-p took part of his team to work on that, even Yoshi-p getting on the board of directors while a great accomplishment for him, he never wanted that job as it also took him away from the games he wanted to make.
Gameplay wise yes they have been doing two things for the jobs that people don't like, raise the floor as well as lower the ceiling. There is certainly some varying degrees of success, like pictomancer is a very easy job to play and very low ceiling to master but it's very engaging and fun. While on the other hand black mage has been struggling that they even removed any maintenance they had now just cause it was too hard along with the fight dynamics.
E- still do not like the story of DT, it just felt like a waste of time as you have the first half being a glorified beast tribe quest, and the second half an Ascian story without any Ascian. It's just felt very disjointed, and only started seeing some part of it in the latest patch, 7.2.

I don't mind dawntrail too much. Woke Lumat was a hilarious meme and they to my knowledge never called it anything other then a prequel/prelude/intermission/word that means we gave the writers a holiday.
Im not gonna judge a half assed beach episode for being a beach episode.
Any real problems DT has seem minor compared to one voice actor shitting the bed (now with pronouns) and a weak story.
Reading this makes me want to play an MMO again, then I remember I have no time to 
Case and point all I was complaining about was the story. So far the raid stories, dungeon and raids themselves are much better, but when your main selling point has been the story of the game for the past decade for it to flop this bad is telling.
GVMERS documents the history of Mafia
I don't disagree. There's nothing really wrong with the mechanical aspects of an MMO either, they're just not for me.
No. No, I don't think I will.As far as XIV is concerned though, a significant amount of the draw and appeal of the game is based around how hard it Member Berries all the rest of the FF series in different ways either in references or set piece fights that calls back to previous titles. The entire post-release storyline additions to the last expansion is heavily drawn from FFIV, and current expansion Dawntrail looks like it's also pulling a lot from FFIX while the raid series is a direct reference to FFXI. This is to say nothing about all the other little references throughout the rest of the game that are either just small nods, thematic similarities, particular enemies, etc.
You should try it.They have a pretty generous free trial, and it's not like the game is hard. They removed all the difficulty because the game sells better to retards if there's no need to think or learn.
I'm already playing Wizardry Variants Daphne. It adequately fulfills my current dungeon crawling CRPG needs.
If you do not like MMOs you will not like FF14. That's more Phantasy Star's realm and the MMO stuff kind of hold the modern ones back
I liked both Final Fantasy and Phantasy Star better before they were MMOs.
New MTG Final Fantasy spoiler drops, and it's Tifa in the colors of the Italian flag.

Microsoft pulling another Microsoft move by re-releasing the crappy remaster of only the first game for PS5 (shit was already out on PC and Xbone omega kek)

Now sure, Gears 1 had the best campaign. But the PC and Ultimate extra campaign content SUCKED. And 2 had the best MP while 3 was the best overall package. GG Microsoft. It's like they hate the series that defined the 360. The 360 mind you was the only truly successful MS console. Amazing

yeah but gears of War was not the reason the 360 was successful that was Halo and CoD honestly GoW was not that popular it sold like hotcakes initially but almost no one talks about it or remembers it fondly. 1 and 2 sold 5 million making them 15 and 16 on the rankings for units sold (for comparison sneak king sold 3.2) and 3 comes in with another 3 million.Microsoft pulling another Microsoft move by re-releasing the crappy remaster of only the first game for PS5 (shit was already out on PC and Xbone omega kek)

COD Skyrim Minecraft GTA5 and Halo 3 all sold at least that much on their own with GTA4 Reach Halo4 selling nearly double GoW 1 or 2.
I would call 360 a bigger succsess because of friggin Fable or the Arkham games then GoW
The fall of the 360 started around the time of the Kinect announcement. Before that the heavy hitters were GOW 1 and 2, Halo 3 and then the CODs which remained constant. Fables biggest impact came with the first which led to 2 being a hit but 2 had much less staying power than the GOW games. And like those we haven't seen 2 released anywhere.
Arkham was a big hit but it was 2009 and nowhere near as big as you are making it sound like. We are talking Dead Rising equivalent levels but at the height of the 360. We are looking at the 2006-2010 timeframe after that the 360 became irrelevant as PC gaming came back in vogue (Skyrim) and then the Gen was killed off with a bang with GTAV
I know exactly how impactful Arkham was i had the stats page up. However people still talk about it and it gets ported often enough.
The only time i hear people talk about Gears is when they talk about popular games. that's its impact it sold a lot. i jumped out of my skin when i saw there were 5 games not 3 like i thought though i would prolly chalk that up to epic being shit rather then anything else.
Popularity is difficult to measure you seem to know this which is why i talked about units sold and mentioned that games like fable which sold less had a larger lasting impact.
I think the only legacy GoW gave us was contributing to the life of the piss filter.
