Help Im Alive posted:I haven't tried the trust system with the ARR dungeons, do the NPC buddies kill enemies as slow as the Shadowbringer/Endwalker ones I just tried them in sastasha and they were ok, definitely slower than real players but they didn’t mind me looking around the pirate area Speaking of, they got rid of non-boss dungeon enemies giving xp? Any reason why?

I remember old copperbell had a slime boss that required your group to coordinate at an unprecedented level, you had to NOT kill an enemy until it exploded of its own volition. Pretty ballsy to have that mechanic when it’s like the fourth dungeon boss of the game

Ff14 chat: When you get down to it, the things you're actually doing during the ff14 ARR quests are really limited. Like most quests chains are "talk* to A, who tells you to talk to B on the other side of the world, who tells you to talk to C D and E who are nearby, go back to B, who now tells you to go to some corner of the wilderness, fight one enemy, go back to B, who sends you back to A" *talk means right-clicking them The writing is v good but man, the tasks are so boring The story is the big draw but doesn't use its mmoness, at all. You are the chosen one protagonist, other players do not exist. If you asked me "did ffxiv have to be an MMO to say what it wants to say" my answer is a Big No. The mmmorpg gameplay is about as good as it gets but it's so sequestered from the story and plot and characters, i'm a little amazed it doesn't bug more people

Jrpgs are usually punchier than this Plot beats that involve spending an hour running errands for an NPC in exchange for information can happen in other jrpgs, maybe as a sort of gag, but here it's constant Idk

Rarity posted:I'm really digging the style of FF14's storytelling just cause it's such a slow immersion into its setting and the worldbuilding is the best I've ever seen in a video game. There's so much texture and richness and history and every conversation peels back another layer and you learn things without even knowing their full importance until they crop back up later. Like how the whole start of the game is about you defending your city from their local beast tribe and its not until hours later that you find out holy poo poo the real baddies are the summons or how Ungust first shows up as this random rear end in a top hat and you tell him to gently caress off and its like ok that happened but then not long he shows back up and plays a huge role in the Ifrit saga or how Redolent Rose runs the Weaver's Guild but also has a secret gig moonlighting as a competition host in the Gold Saucer. As someone who's main interests in video games are in setting and story it hits all my main itches. Idk if the evil merchant episode or the reveal that there's more going on than you first thought is particularly unique to ffxiv, it's basic fiction stuff! Except slower (so much teleporting, walking, talking) Agreed on the worldbuilding tho, lots of details and it holds together great My main thesis is that it could've absolutely been single-player only, nothing about the setting or story requires other players. An open world jrpg, like idk dragon's dogma? I haven't played very many open world jrpgs

Ffxiv: Last night I marathoned / shotgunned / chugged the infamous pre-titan quest line, idk what got revamped in the revamp but it was fine, a couple of decent story moments and characters Still a qiest or two too long ofc, and made worse by the fact that the actual Titan encounter feels like a footnote, it's over so fast in comparison to the dumb chores the previous guys just made you do to prove yourself. Weird!!

FirstAidKite posted:What are some video games where the main protagonist is purposefully ugly? I don't mean games where the art or graphics are bad or have aged poorly enough that the design is ugly and I don't mean games that try to go for the "ugly cute" aesthetic. I mean games where the protagonist is just intentionally designed to be ugly. I will not accept examples that are from character creation games because those don't count.
