That video is the stuff of nightmares.
Maybe Iâm lacking imagination or something but mostly all I see is an ad for avatars and cool graphics.
It doesnât really say what itâs about. Just looking pretty & cool isnât enough, imo. Thereâs got to be more for me to bother with.
Ironic considering its current iteration has been out and successful for 8 years.
People on these forums are so out of touch that some actually think Final Fantasy just recently came out and think that is why everyone is talking about it so much.
EDIT: I have to specify, âcurrent iterationâ because the original release of the game was so piss-poor that an entirely new development lead came in and completely destroyed the game to remake it into A Realm Reborn as its 2.0 release. This is actually referred to in-game as âThe Calamityâ throughout the story.
FFXIV has already more subs than WoW now. It broke Steam record for most players and most people donât even use Steam when playing FFXIV. It recently broke Twitch records too and it was the most popular stream for Asmongold (who is an avid WoW streamer). It broke Twitch record. Most websites have listed FFXIV above WoW in the MMORPG category as well.
I know itâs hard to accept the truth especially for those people who have invested WAY too much time into WoW, but WoW is actually really #2 now and itâs falling. Ashes is doing its alpha test later next month and that game is also looking pretty promising in terms of a genuine MMORPG. The only difference back then was we didnât have the awful systems Legion/BfA/Shadowlands did year after year which is what is turning away players.
and yet folks were buying it due to the Steam Sale, I meanâŚ30 bucks for the original+Shadow is a literal steal. But heyâŚgrats on gaining mass for money.
yeah, All because of Asmongold and not due to the Fat Black Chocobo raffleâŚAsmonâs not really the god of MMOs as you push bud
Isnât Ashes feared to being DoA due to itâs overambition? Also FF14âs basis is due to the new player perks and pandering. Of course, youâd have to ignore the criticisms of 14 and the issues that flare up (Longer content droughts than WoW. Lack of Savage tier raids. A toxic community that is mostly made up of hyper casuals that want stuff pandered to them. Hostile issues due to criticism and rampant banhammers on âharassmentâ)
but whatever seems any criticism of 14 is âirrelevantâ to some of the folks pushing it.
I never claimed FF just came out, I said it was the new top topic mmo.
As you stated yourself its changed over the years andâŚthat leads to it becoming a top topic again.
