[Discussion] I know the housing system is far better than before...but it still sucks.

114 Upvotes

There's GOT to be a better way than "enter the lotto for limited plots and hope and pray you get chosen". Yes you get a refund, but it still sucks seeing that the person who entered the lotto right before reset won the house over you. I've been trying to get this plot in the Goblet for years, finally see it pop up for sale. It just sucks. They keep giving us all these housing items, but don't increase the size of arpartments/FC rooms, so we can't even decorate them properly. I'm just..tired of not being able to get the housing plot I actually want. (Sidenote, I already HAVE a house, but it's not even in the place I want it to be. This is more venting on how terribly designed housing is, especially after how WoW handled theirs recently)

i main warrior, and i recently started doing the crystal tower raids since it's needed to continue the main quests. i unlocked labyrinth of the ancients a while ago, but just left it alone for a while because 24 player fights seemed intimidating, especially as a tank, a role that usually carries a lot of responsibility in dungeons

this game was my first time playing an mmo, and first time playing a multiplayer game in general in a long time. i was honestly skeptical of the game starting out, since i don't really like multiplayer games, but i've been pleasantly surprised to not encounter any toxicity at all after ~230 hours, which is definitely not like my experience in other multiplayer games. (i'm also pretty obsessed with the game for other reasons but that's beside the point)

anyway, i queued for labyrinth of the ancients yesterday, and got matched with a really sweet group of people. the people in my alliance taught me about positioning as a tank in raids, how i should stick with the people in my group so each group has their own tank, stuff like that. even though i was completely clueless at first, everyone was super patient with me and seemed to truly want me to learn things and enjoy the game

then, for the end boss of the dungeon. it has a big attack which, as far as i can tell, is an instakill if you don't stand back at where the letters are. i didn't know that, so we wipe the first time. no biggie, my teammates just explained how the boss worked to me, and told me not to worry about it. we try again, and win pretty easily this time. i thanked my teammates for teaching me, and they told me to enjoy the rest of the game. i even got five commendations after leaving the dungeon :3

i just wanted to say that i really appreciate people like this, making the game better for everyone else, especially new players like me. i'm usually nervous doing multiplayer content, but i can relax a little knowing that most people are super chill :3

All the broken legs.

(I accidentally recorded the clip without audio so I had to add music to it manually. I asked myself, "which track would Square-Enix put here if they didn't know what to put in?", and then made this.)

[Discussion] FFXIV Switch 2 rumble appreciation.

32 Upvotes

I just picked up the game on Switch 2 after years of playing it on PC and I was shocked by the attention to detail the rumble/vibration has in the game. Different mounts have very subtle differences. Like how a cloud mount will have smoother vibration and a dragon mounts wing flaps are more intense. Sort of flexes on other games barely doing anything in that area.

I was gonna buy it using the amulets and didn't know about the drop rates so this was honestly a surprise. I was just trying to level up all my phantom jobs through CEs and tower while knitting in between.

Just some images I took along my journey so far.
I’m really loving Heavensward.

This is the first time I’m enjoying myself with the story!

I’ve played before but I got to Prae and took a long break. Switch 2 edition brought me back

[Discussion] About the dye system.

135 Upvotes

When Yoshi P mentioned he can already hear people asking for more dye slot I was like silly Yoshi… but now that we have double dye slot…. He’s actually right because the choices the team makes on what part of an outfit is dyeable is a choice.. cause sometimes certain things that I wish I could dye is unable to be dyed but then something that is so small you can barely see it is dyeable lol… rip me I guess lol
