FFXIV

So what do I do with my kenki now? Just spam shinten like a retard?

Samurai was never fun and only retards played it.

Yep. There is zero management now, especially since the burst lines up with the abililty that gives you just enough kenji

Yup, because any job that has an ounce of complexity needs to be dumbed down beyond all Holy Hell.

t. DRK main

DRGbros, I'm scared.

The devs don't play the game and Yoshi-P has been caught on more than one occasion ERPing as his loli witch lalafell.

>Yoshi-P has been caught on more than one occasion ERPing as his loli witch lalafell.
Source?

Come on now.

>Drg and Ast are next
How will they fuck them up?

AST has been garbage since ShB.

Mostly everyone liked the SMN changes, it's a step towards the right direction

AST should come out better as is the case during the typical mid expansion AST rework but I doubt they're going to change DRG too much since they've acknowledged the backlash for SAM

>make jobs complex/stimulating to play at a high level again
>give extremes longer enra- actually no they're already pretty pathetic at this point
>make dungeons/normals easier because the subhumans who can't play one of the easiest MMOs ever made still fail at them, so just make them easier so the actual good players aren't tearing their hair out when they do casual content
there is no real net loss for making jobs more complex again
SMN is alright but it still has the issue of being a glorified ranged phys with a rez while being easier than RDM somehow

What you guys do when you feel burned from Ultimate/Savage? I don't wanna keep doing DSR but my friends still wanna get going despite us not even being half the fight after almost 2 months...

take a break retard

SAM still pisses me off in crystalline conflict so I don't care nerf them again.

This is coming from a NIN main.

All 6 of them tried to complain about them and then got drowned by a gigantic army of crayon eaters and fotm retards coming back for EW release. Within casters there used to be RDM if you wanted an easy caster, SMN if you wanted a moderately difficult caster and BLM if you wanted to wanted something a bit harder. Now you have dumb, dumber and yoshiP's baby.
It was pathetic to see RDM dethroned as the braindead 20iq job, yet somehow here we are, SMN is now the most popular job in the game despite its gameplay being blueparse macroable in literally 1 button because the lowest common denominator will always flock to what's the easiest to play. This is who they're making the game for now.

>Useless button removed
>People lose their minds

This is why progress is so difficult, retards gum up the wheels.

(You)

every time ive tried to come back to this game more and more spells get removed. it's like theyre trying to speedrun wows spell culling.

XIV worked fine when jobs were slightly harder to play and healers had more than 1 button. there was literally never any reason to make anything more """"accessible"""" than it was in stormblood
I just go in raidlog mode or unsub for a while. try some other games bro.

I never touched samurai, would the class be easy now as a new player? whats the rotation like

>Within casters there used to be RDM if you wanted an easy caster
RDM is the deceptively easy caster since most people can't handle its dualcast movement which is actually quite limiting when you want to maintain full uptime. SMN going from the janky ass caster that nobody played to the phys ranged caster is a welcome change.

>Now
>Implying they haven't been dumbing shit down since Stormblood

Yeah bro, just fucking spam Shinten. Just turn your brain off and watch the big number show up on screen from hitting one button.

It was easy before and it's even easier now. There was never a difficult job to play in this game except maybe Stormblood MCH.
The numbers aint even big anymore lol they completely neutered iaijutsus

press 1 2 3 then midare dont listen to anyone else

to be fair, i still cant play sage for shit.

Of course RDM still had a lot of nuance and depth but on a basic level it was the easiest caster.
Ranged phys should be ranged phys, turning a caster into a ranged phys is just retarded. Why not let casters be casters.
SB was like the perfect middle ground and then they kept hitting everything with the retard bat.

FFXIV is gonna turn into this once all job flavor and uniqueness is removed in favor of being easy and basically macroable
it would be simple enough to reduce the skill floor while increasing the skill ceiling to satisfy everyone rather than closing the gap in favor of those at the floor. monster hunter sorta does this by giving weapons new things every new game but the base gameplay loop has always been intended for casual play at least in japan

so what are they going to do for the DRG/AST rework or whatever they were gonna do?

Im fucking scared because they keep reworking AST heavily every expansion and im tired of spending the first month of the expac relearning my class

Give me pvp combo actions then add even more skills because you’re not limited to x amount. I don’t care if I’m pressing 1111 or 1234

don't even main SAM, but this totally fucked 90% of the enjoyment of the job for me. There was something that triggered my lizard brain whenever pressing the button before attacks that just clicked for me

>to be fair, i still cant play sage for shit.
It's like an easier SCH, when you understand how shield healing works your gameplay will always consist of 90% dosis.

no, everyone LIKED summoner's rework.
Old summoner was shit. It was so bad nobody wanted to play it. It had egregious bugs that caused pets to not attack properly and lost huge amounts of damage if you didn't play it exactly the right way.

Now it's the Machinist of casters. Easy, free movement 70% of the time, but you still have to account for cast times on two spells and getting and staying in melee for 4-5 seconds on a third.

My static got to twin dragons phase today AND my steam deck came in so I can do comfy crafting/gathering/dailies in bed

honestly just give me brainlet WHM at this point. like BLM, itll never be allowed to be bad and doesn't fuck around with bizarre conditional shield crap.

press button
green bar go zoom
god bless

new samurai plays fine just feels awkward not doing a sick animation before doing your big dick damage anymore otherwise whatever
the real problem is because it has guaranteed critical hits now, any party buff that grants increased crit rate is wasted
most dancers don't even partner samurais anymore

But then they'll replace me and maybe i can't go back with them.....

she's a brat
