People flocking to ff14 and ignoring what square enix did to a dev

its clear the entire point flew over your head, how woke culture only cares about the victimhood of women who are sexually harassed but not the males and the fact they do hate white people pretty much all around

why you asking stupid questions on an alt with no forum post count? mind your own beeswax

Yeah sorry about that, I did miss your point.

As a new player, one day I sat down and went to the website created an account and wanted to download the ESO gameā€¦ my expectation coming from 15+ years of MMOs (wow, wildstar, rift, SWTOR, aion, guild wars 2 etc) was a simple buy + subā€¦ I didnā€™t find that and after ~30 mins of reading couldnt find the answers or a content created guide to lead me down the pathā€¦ so I decided not to engage with it.

Thatā€™s unfortunate.
I mean, buying and subbing to the game is definitely simpler than half of what you listed.
Tis a shame, itā€™s an amazing game.

It genuinely looks good, but I refuse to buy half the game and find out the rest is behind a paywallā€¦ I accept that it is not what ESO does but they were not transparent about that which means they could (and may do so in the future).

Due to the ever growing hype I am going to try to push through the early FF14 levelling on a trial account (my wow sub runs out in 8 days) but until ESO brings out a GOTY edition or some way for me to get the entirety of the game (like wow gives away up to the previous xpac now right?)ā€¦ I wont pick it up.

Advice noted and fixed :stuck_out_tongue:

Wish I could bloody log into FF14 canā€™t get past their sign in logging ā€¦2 different passwordā€¦I just spent over 2 hours trying to log in ā€¦what the heck is the secret

ESO actually does that.
If you buy one of the newer expansions, youā€™ll get the previous expansions as well.
So, looking at Steam now, the Blackwood expansion ($59.99 version) gives you the new expansion, all of the previous expansions and the base game. GoG often has sales for digital keys as well so you could find it cheaper.
Mind you, thatā€™s five expansions and base game.

Yo is his name really Jesse McCree? This goofball really gave a character his full government name lol

Oh hey Ghostcrawler is there too

Or sl is bad and they are moving to the better game? Not everyoneā€™s an activist?

they sure act like one

Quoted the wrong person, holā€™ on.

I love the change, itā€™s visually perfect. Thoughts?

all corporations are scumbags

if you think they are not you are living in a fantasy world

all corporations, in all forms, in every essence of the word, are absolute pieces of garbage

all you corporate fanboys NEED to learn this, your favorite brand think you are nothing but a pay pig and only worthy of exploitation

You linked an alt-right adjacent. Well known incel/MGTOW, misogynist propaganda channel. This means less than nothing.

You have submitted negative proof. Proof against your own point. You are desperate. All the sexists here are desperate. Your deflection is disgusting. These people are liars, known propagandists and in no way reliable.

Soā€¦ if I buy the xpac do I get the ā€œbonus DLC story missionsā€ or are those sold separately? The fact that even in this one thread a poster above has said ā€œyou donā€™t need a subā€ then followed it up with ā€œto get the DLC story missions you need a subā€ā€¦ really muddies the waters. I am not buying it or supporting a business model where that kind of shenanigans goes on. Wow is bad enough at hiding in game information and mechanics in 3rd party sites and wikisā€¦ if the pricing information is also as hard to find I would give wow the flick too.

I am an adult, I can easily EASILY afford it but I know a lot better than to fall for it.

Iā€™ll add one thing to this:

Whenever thereā€™s one or two or three or hundreds of women saying they were harassed by X you guys are the first to call them liars.

When one guy says he was harassed you believe him.

Just for the record, Iā€™m not saying he did lie, but just let it sink in for a second. Yall go ā€œoh but even a 2 year investigation by a state agency is no proof, nooo pictures are no proof, nothing is proofā€ but when thereā€™s one video about a guy allegedly having been harassed thatā€™s all the proof you need to have?

BASED

Okay you keep sticking to the dlc thing which literally is just extra side content you donā€™t even need to do.
It comes free with your sub.
While youā€™re subbed you get monthly currency you can use to buy said dlc for use when your sub is inactive.
Thatā€™s literally it lol.
Youā€™re holding on too hard to the dlc thing and ignoring the ridiculous amount of content you get from the buy to play model.
Consider the dlc a bonus for subbing.

The pricing info isnā€™t hard to find it is literally all on their site.
Buy to play gets you base and expansions, sub gets you more as a bonus for loyalty.

You lose no content by not subbing since the dlc has no bearing on the actual story or expansions at all.

Players flocking over to ff14 because of other reasons. Iā€™m waiting to see what WoW evolution becomes, but if it continues the same route regardless of the situation. Iā€™ll probably be leaving too. Iā€™m not sure if we will ever see this game bloom properly.

Not with the current dev team I donā€™t think we will.
