FFXIV Patch 3.57

I personally think the jump potions are a bad idea. If you jump directly to being able to do Stormblood(or if they add it later than that) people won't learn their class and be able to actually play(look what Palace of the Dead did....so many fail tanks and healers; and yes, I do use PotD but only to finish off a level of I've done my daily roulettes)people have played since the beginning of 2.X and still dont know their classes. jump potions wont make it any worse......Cheap FFXIV Gil at least PotD got people out of their comfort zones to try other classes for better or for worse. given they are also revamping abilities in 4.X I think even veterans may have to relearn their classes as well. should be interesting to see.

For the record I would totally be on board with the jump potions. You lose players because nobody wants to play through every expansion and patch to get to the latest game. People don't have time, and if they want to experience it they can just go back. Or read wiki or watch YouTube. There are tons of ways to experience the story other than being forced to play through it.  If you had done any amount of research you'd have known that you needed to finish the 2.X stories to get into the 3.0 areas. What part of story focused do you not understand lol. You are just being lazy. Bet you are the cutscene skipping type of person. No matter what game it is. If you "don't have time" then an MMO isn't your game... If you don't want story, then Final Fantasy isn't your franchise.If you don't like either, I hear WoW is still going strong.

 I totally understand newer players not wanting to go through the 2.X grind. I really do. A friend of mine just had to go through it all again when she made a new account. It's a pain. FFXIV Gil That being said, I think it should only let them skip 2.X and not 3.X. 3.X is very small in quest size compared to 2.X. 3.X will still be relevant even at the start of Stormblood, unless the potion is dropped much later on in the expansion life cycle. Kristi Howell I agree that a lot of relearning will be done with the revamping of skills. And reorganizing of skill bars(BLM Thunder changes is the first to come to mind with it potrntially going from a three tier spell to just one that scales based on level), and it will throw some for a loop until they figure it out. I'm looking forward to being able to change things up, even though I don't really know healer, or most of the ranged DPS(I main DRG, BLM and DRK)

That's right, you gotta research expansion packs before you buy them now! It's a matter of respect, I'll never forget when star craft released its expansion and I couldn't play it before I completed the first. Or borderlands, or Diablo, or...

FFXIV is the most stagnant game

Despite all the weird game mechanics and such, I still had the best time playing late game 1.0 than I ever did in 2.0. The graphics were vivid and came to life. I'll never forget the first time seeing he night sky in 1.0 while Dalamud was falling and just being awestruck at how deep and real, but fantastic the view was. Exploring the world was a wild experience due to the unknown danger and large open areas and all the nooks and crannies to explore. It just felt... like an actual place in a real world somewhere. It has definitely evolved since 1.0, more so than any other MMO can claim. Their current model obviously works for them and thousands of others. FFXIV Gil I just miss being able to go into Sastasha or Dzemael Darkhold and feel like it was an actual unique adventure and getting lost in the labyrinth of these dungeons was a very real concern.

Next time you guys make another mmorpg, could you make it for PC only, your limiting yourself by making them for the consoles. Example: your Summoner and Black Mage in FF11 is so much better than the same jobs in FF14 all because your limited to the console play in 14. Daniel Bone "First launched" yes, but it was getting large amounts of subs once the job system was released. Hell, the game was booming in the last year. Many of the environs were definitely rushed, but it wasn't too far from what an actual forest, desert, Cheap FFXIV Gil or highlands would look like. After all, the "sameness" of an environment is what makes it more lifelike.

Nice one! They have been trying out new things with regular updates and expansions :) swimming is next! you can completely tell the difference between old dungron content to new. I hope they continue to slowly try new techniques as the story/game progresses. What exactly are they limiting themselves on lol.  They had XI on xbox and ps too so i call not valid.

Grind for tomes to get max ilvl gear, until we update and you repeat that process. Been playing since ARR released and that's been the end-game the ENTIRE TIME.
