If you have 475$ to throw at something you want to believe in, generally speaking you have a disposable income and a salaried job. Wife and I both have a salaried job. We lose and gain more than $500 in our investment accounts every hour. $500 for a chance at a few years of entertainment when I already have terminal cancer is fine to me. Win some, lose some. Not like it's going with me. I had over 1400 in star citizen....but got that poo poo refunded. Either way all That being said the whole new situation is definitely....concerning. It definitely shakes my confidence in the project. Edit: big thumbs on mobile makes numbers hard.

Can LazyPeon play the genre that is designed to be played for a long time for more than a loving day? It's hard to take any of his videos seriously when he quits playing before the tutorial is even over because he's too stupid to upgrade his weapon or because he can't find anyone to play with because he's playing the wrong version of the game. I know he means well but god drat he is the last person I'd want telling me if an MMO is good or not. Shilling for referrals again. Thanks to all who have signed up already I appreciate it. hobocrunch fucked around with this message at 10:34 on Jun 1, 2021 |

I use him more of a litmus test of "is it even worth downloading to try" than a serious reviewer. Generally his pros and cons seem to be pretty accurate, and his approach of "if I'm not interested after a day it's unlikely that I will be later" isn't far off from the market average. I still say I'm cautiously optimistic about the game as a whole, but the lead game designer leaving is a concerning development. Ffycchi fucked around with this message at 18:24 on Jun 1, 2021 |

If it's any consolation I rarely have the money to buy cosmetics anyhow so I'm down for some free in-game currency. quote:Would you call Final Fantasy XIV a 6 out of 10 game? Obviously this is just my opinion and I'm not saying there's not fun to be had but I give pretty much all of these PvE themeparks a 0/10 for being an MMORPG because for the most part they're just not anymore. People have somehow forgotten that most good stories have antagonists and the same thing goes for MMORPGs and it's players. Without the tools to give players the ability to create their own social dynamic that directly bounces off the MMORPGs gameplay, it's just failing at what it should be doing. I think that's why people love WoW classic so much- It's a very good split down the middle of all it's gametypes- PvE themepark, world, social, and PvP. hobocrunch fucked around with this message at 06:25 on Jun 2, 2021 |

FFXIV has some cool social stuff, in contrast to wow which has just fully embraced the idea that leveling and end game are two entirely different products & one of them is meant to be played alone. But also the FFXIV leveling experience loving sucks and the idea that FFXIV being mediocre is some kind of disqualifying opinion is ridiculous.

FF14 has serious flaws. Like their hosed up levels - so the story is the main draw, but you have to put that on hold if you want to try a new class. Nothing stops them from introducing new classes at the same level as their expansion so you can continue the MSQ, its all totally arbitrary or hell even pulling something like Guild Wars where you hit level cap early on and 75% of the game is endgame and they balance everything around that

FFXIV is barely an mmo, some laggy bozja fights don’t change that

Just wanted to +1 the LazyPeon comments, dude’s heart clearly isn’t in making MMO content anymore and it shows. Perfectly fine considering he’s clearly worked on himself a lot and with self-improvement sometimes your interests change, but with YouTube as his main source of income he needs to decide whether he wants to try something else (which he’s also made a video on I believe) or stop clearly half-assing his MMO stuff.

He actually looks rather interested in the ashes stuff. I really don't blame him for not having his heart into he current mmo market, nor the mental health bits. but I do agree he needs to pick one.

Ffycchi posted:He actually looks rather interested in the ashes stuff. I'm not really flaming him. I just wish he'd recognize that he's not having fun. Can he not just get a posse of dudes to play MMO's with him like say Russian Badger does for FPS stuff? It just seems like he's so depressed. I think it's fine to primarily play Solo in an MMO but at least play alongside friends. Having people to talk to about a game provides so much motivation.

I am a Stupid Newbie. According to "the rules," I should lurk before I post. Thus, I am lurking. I have lurked my way to this Post. According to "the rules," before I reply, I should ask myself the following question: "Does my reply offer any significant advice or help contribute to the conversation in any fashion?" Having asked myself that question, I once again answer in the affirmative. My significant advice to you, Alexandre DeLarge, is still: Shut up, Idiot. (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

everquest landmark was fun to screw around in for the 2.5 hours the servers were up and I had enough resources to build something of substance (I built a penis). it felt rad at the time and I believed the new vision with player built assets funnelling into eq next, where they had roaming npcs that were dependant on dynamic quest chains and such.

I came in blind expecting a trap. My experience of Goons starts with EVE. I have finally after some years been encouraged to make the leap into SA. Xolve gave specific instructions regarding how to introduce myself. These I have followed to the letter expecting all the while to make myself look a fool.

You are not making yourself a fool. The first thing to join Goon's Swarm is to be able to take orders from commanding officers, even if they are strange or potentially dangerous. This will be extremely valuable in future flight missions.

I liked Landmark. Something about it was very soothing. Reminded me of the old Tribes 2 construction mod, just hanging out with people building things for no reason other than to build.
