Interesting video. Could have done without the Nyan cat music though.

Weird thing that you put a band for FFXIV, when WoW used to have a Samwise Didier with TBC band : Power of the Horde, I’m a murloc…etc even SC songs.

you’re just comparing the actual state of wow against FFXIV as a whole.

Completely different breed of devs.

One set cares. The other set just gets paid.

I’ll take Blizz devs over FFXIV. FFIXV’s raids are horrible and boring along with their dungeons. Leveling experience I would take WoW over FFXIV also although FFXIV leveling isn’t horrible but I just prefer an open world without tons of invisible walls, small zones, loading screens, etc.

I found this mostly in the shroud near Gridana. Seems its a left over from the design of FF14 1.0, back when it was not nearly half as open as it is now. However 14 (and wow) both have way too many invisawalls.

Everyone says ffxiv devs care so much, yet my character still has to implement mods to do something as simple as wear a hat and there’s been nothing to do in shadowbringers for over a year (unless you like running old stuff ad nauseum or grinding fates in bozja-plenty of that).

Wow devs Vs FFXIV devs

Hmmm

If you want to make a game right, why not do it yourself?

I have not modded Minecraft for months now due to piling activities. :(

Elite Tauren Chieftan is too problematic now. One of their signature songs is “rogues do it from behind.”

Does anyone else get irritated when the video tells you to like and subscribe? I often click the thumbs down automatically when the damn video does that.

The president of Blizzard streams playing WoW all the time. He was even playing WoW last night after getting promoted to the sole President of the company.

The ONLY reason the FF14 devs are as open and honest as they are is because of how hard 1.0 failed. If 1.0 had been a huge success, they’d be just as arrogant as people claim the WoW devs are.

That’s the difference.

I think it’s a cultural difference too. In japan individuals have a strong sense of responsibility towards others and society, while in america everyone is pretty much doing everything for themselves.

That’s just, like, your opinion, man.

I have probably 5 times as many load screens in WoW from having to port all over the game to get things done.

Also flight paths eat up a ridiculously larger portion of time since in FF14 you have fast travel. And can fly everywhere within a zone as soon as you complete that zone.

These aren’t things to be salty about, they’re things to encourage Blizzard to improve upon.

When your goal is improving the game, you want to make actual improvements, not just trash talk the competition. The whole “it’s easier to brings others down than to work and lift myself up” mindset is tired.
