Evening All Chris here. While I'm working on tomorrows WoW vid with a goofy ass intro, Mike put this first impressions together for the new Island Sanctuary. While he is not the usual type to indulge in these sorts of games/features, he has to admit - it really is something.
At first when Yoshi said there'd be time gates on buildings I was immediate to criticize it, I felt it'd only increase from there, bleed into other aspects of the game, I just had major PTSD to Garrisons in WoD.... I've now realized the time gating is actually a health and safety precaution because this thing is SUPER addicting.
the time gating on it isnt that bad, also rebuilding and replacing certain buildings is INSTANT as long as the initial construction is already finished
Some timegateing is bad for sure, but yes, timegateing can be a good thing. I know some people love to rush through everything in a single day, those are the same people who usually complain there is nothing to do. But yes, insane wait times is stupid, but some is fine.
@@iceman3317 Yeah, I think there's a fine balance, on the one hand you gotta pace the content so the devs actually have time to make more good content, but you also don't want your audience getting bored or sick of the feature.
Absolutely dying at the fact he enjoys the content after he was so sure on stream and in other videos that it wouldn't be for him at all! Never get tired of Preach's "I will never like this...OH NO!" moments! 🤣
This is just another reason I love how there is no data mining months before a patch comes out. Sites would have made the perfect ways to find everything before the game released. Instead ... they release content, and you are on an adventure friend! It's actually amazing and you story here is too!
Honestly, I love FF, but I prefer Wow for the most part, and I DREAM of Wow getting to a point where it can do this much stuff under cover. It really is quite a thing to experience when everyone goes in blind.
Hate to break it to you, but ways to optimize content like islands can be found within a day, especially when you consider that it's not exactly a rocket science and the very existence of workshop incentivizes people to minmax stuff. All the feeling of "chill content" dissipated immediately after unlocking the workshop. Adventure aspects of the island are pretty damn lame too. It's just a new way for you to waste time.
One of the big things that I love about farming games (story of seasons, Stardew valley) is the sense of progression. You typically start with a crap hole farm with debris everywhere, very little money and a shack with a bed. However you harvest your first crop and suddenly you can… buy more seeds or build a coop to have chickens. Constantly progressing, step by step
And with a little more coin you can say, ok i want to plant more crops, or maybe i rather focus on animal products? What if i do a little bit of both for extra profit? Or maybe do something for easy money so i can develop relations with the town? So many ways you can tackle this type of games and that's the beauty for it. You set your own goal and just chill doing what you want to a certain degree (need the coin at the end)
I get that, im addicted to progression in video games, bonus points if i can make what im working on my own, to look at something and say "i did that" no greater feeling in the world
@@Kanamon22 and usually there's "helpers" to automate your farm... story of season/og harvest moon was usually harvest sprites, ni no kuni crossworlds it's people you've bribed with home cooked meals now, ffxiv it's mammets
@@Tater- She mentioned in a recent video that she was worried we'd lose something like 60% of the player-base to Island Sanctuary. Not from them leaving, but from them never leaving the island :p
Collaboration on reddit has turned up 3 different types of rares in Island Sanctuary: Time-based, weather-based, and ones that depend on both. Examples of each are: Apkallu of Paradise (the red penguin) spawns between noon and 3pm Eorzea Time; Black Chocobo spawns any time of day during Clear Skies; Beachcomb the crab spawns during early morning when it's Raining. The first two categories are reskins while the third category are totally unique.
The biggest thing I've learned the more time I sink into FFXIV is that your feelings of having fun and how the game feels which are most important. The social and solo experience needs to be 1st priority with the chasing of pixels as 2nd since they're still important but can't be the driving force. I'm glad you've been having fun and I know I have been too!
Someone in another chat mentioned you got sucked into this, and I was just waiting for this video. I recall your thoughts before it, and glad you're having fun with it. I'm enjoying it. Very relaxing
I remember hearing you say something along the lines of "I don't think I'll spend much time on this, its not really my thing", and thinking "yeah hes gonna be addicted to it".
imagine being tataru, you run the secret organization that saves the world, and to thank the one that made it all possible, you toil endlessly to get the proper papers and permits for them to have their own island getaway. only to find that hero is bonking penguins and grinding xp
I recently started looking and filling my Sightseeing Journal, not looking for it online, I just read the hint and look and I honestly been having a blast doing that between leveling alt jobs.
Awesome tip fcor the vine farming, the reason they seem to be respawned in that time frame is that they are not on a timer, they are linked to when you harvest an item in that area.
Glad you enjoyed the content Mike, I completely feel the same way with it. It's fun and good casual content. People who are angry about the time gating, are people who have unrealistic expectations for this content.
Hey Preach, people have probably already mentioned it, but the shinies (rare spawns) are actually tied to the weather or Eorzean (ingame) time (or both). There are shinies that spawn on 24 Eorzean hour increments. These spawns last 3 ingame hours. And there are other shinies that spawn in specific weather and ties of day (like morning or night). You can actually enable Eorzean Time on your UI by going into Character Configuration>UI Settings>HUD and about halfway through the tab you will find your clock settings. You have the option of enabling/disabling Local Time, Server Time, and Eorzean TIme.
This rare hunt sounds like my breeding collection in ARK. I'll be out, doing my thing, and I'll see it. A flash, a color, brief though it may be I know I want- nay! NEED that color variation for my dinosaur army. It'll stop me in my tracks. I need to sort out how to acquire it. Do I have bolas? Tranqs? Taming food? Should I build a trap? Can I keep it safe? Will it kill me? It isn't a point of the game, but it does create everything I want in a game. I haven't been able to get to my island yet, as there are so many doing the same. Hopefully there's an underwater or large cave base I can hide away in at some point.
Mike, we found out how the rare coblyn spawns this NA afternoon. And good news the next batch of spawns are perfect for EU time. It's not in one of the blocked off areas like people guessed, but it does have conditions.
The island look’s impressive. It’s another mini game in a large scale, one can imagine how many hours one would spend there besides going to gambling den.
One thing I was worried about was the grind because I absolutely hate it. Instead the time gate stuff of buildings taking a few hours to complete is great to help avoid burning out. I feel so happy for my WOL who is building and adventuring like a maniac. What an amazing gift from Tartaru
I can't believe how much I love meandering about my island. Considering the only farming type game I've ever managed to get through to the end was Stardew Valley. I usually prioritize the story over everything in FFXIV but I haven't managed to leave the island yet. It's impossible, it's just so zen. XD
For the capture mechanic: maybe, I'm the only one but I've learned by playing, that the capture rate should be a 100% as long as you are close enough to the creature and that the the net animation falls exactly on the monster. However, then again, I might be wrong but this is what has worked so far for me
I saw a black chocobo and wanted it so much, but I couldn't get it because I wasn't able to craft restraints for a larger creature. Bummed me out when I couldn't get it, but I managed to the second time I saw it. I really wish there was something you could do to influence catch rate, because I used 15 things to try and get a rare spawn which specifically spawns during cloudy and 9am-12pm and it still ran away at the end.
Before I logged in today, the very first thing on my mind was swinging by the island to make sure my animals were fed and to pick up my cowries from my sold crafts--then I spent a few hours farming after setting up another season of crafts for the 3rd workshop that just finished building. Also, my Granary just finished, so I had to send my mammets out on their first foraging mission, and also complete the construction of my new bathhouse to improve the groove rating of my mammets for a better cowrie haul at the workshop. So... Yeah. I might be a little bit addicted, as well.
Question is, will the Island Sanctuary replace the Gold Saucer as a downtime/waiting activity? I would suspect so, since the Gold Saucer GATEs are comparatively few and far between, while there's always something to do on the Island.
No, they already said more updates are coming to GC It doesn't really compare tbh, one is a singleplayer colletaton and the other is more MP focused with other types of gameplay
Definitely my favorite parts are the rare animals and getting to place all of my minions in the correct habitat. I never realized how many chocobo chicks I’d collected over the years till I set them out in the pasture. lol
I got the level 7 after much determination. The reason I rushed it is to get my production going right away. At level 7 you can unlock your final workshop
As someone who has never played animal crossing or anything similar because they aren’t my type of game usually. I am rank 10 and currently researching all the different efficiency bonuses and figuring out how to min max my production so I can get that bike just a little sooner 😂
Wait until Preach discovers the rare mob spawns, like Beachcomb the crab who spawns at the mouth of the northern river during rainstorms. Or did yesterday, at least. He's not spawning today.
Yeah, I think preach would like stardew, there's a constant feeling of progression in that game. probably pass on Animal crossing though, it's also good, but after the first few days of the game, you can do a lot of the stuff you'd want to do on a daily basis in about 15-20 minutes, then you kind of just fish or catch bugs, it's fun, but not conducive for streams that are several hours long unless it's more of a "just chatting" stream with a game that's only really meant to serve as background noise.
These games are kind of right up most MMO gamer's wheelhouse. Like an MMO, it is as you said; setting your own goals, and slowly progressing towards them. In WoW or FFXIV, you get a sick new sword. In Stardew Valley, you get a sick new couch or sprinklers or something that sounds silly but since it's all about customization (and plenty of gameplay-affecting things as well) then suddenly when you're not stuck watering your crops every morning, you feel free to tackle more of the game than before. That said, even though I've played each Animal Crossing and have since the original Gamecube release (and I remember reading about the N64 release on IGN back in the day) I never stick with them for very long. Ever since they got rid of the NES games you could find and play, it was like my main goal was gone. I loved those things. So things like Stardew or Rune Factory are more my speed, because they do offer a bit of combat and such as well, a little danger, but the danger also isn't the focus. Animal Crossing lacks that extra oomph, at least for me personally. Also doesn't help that Animal Crossing has very little in the way of minigames or gameplay variety in general, I can only do so much moving furniture around and chatting with NPCs, y'know?
I quite like the sanctuary so far (currently level 5). I hope they add some qol (pinning recipes etc.) and a bit more customization if possible. I don't mind the time gating as it's currently implemented, but it could be optimized to feel more involved and less time-gatey. For example, the construction of buildings could be split into stages (foundation, walls, ...) where you have the option to increase the construction speed by supplying materials (otherwise it would take as long as it's now which is fine if you are afk or doing something else). I have somehow the feeling that the current version is just the "basics" (it has all the required features) plus the orchestrion thing and there is some stuff planned. I could certainly imagine that at some point there might be an instanced house -- behind a lot of grind (with the purpose of reducing the server load compared to "everyone now gets an instanced house immediately")
My FC's chat log is literally INUNDATED with how to guides on rare spawns. Where to find them, what weather you need etc., and yes building stuff is time gated but I think that was intentional because Island Sanctuary is VERY addicted. I find myself waking up in the middle of night to check my crops, critters and agendas.🤣🤣 WoD's garrison system felt like an in game prison. Island Sanctuary's seems more like a fun way to pass time while waiting for roulettes, legendary node spawns and raids. I just wish I could get my hands on more pumpkins aside from just planting more of them.
Its still up in the air right now. Displate and Squeenix have a meeting towards the end of next month and it'll be discussed then - with any luck we can come to some sort of arrangement officially and it can go back on sale.
It seems like every time Preach starts off like "I dunno, I'll try it, but I don't think this type of casual content will be for me" then BAM, it grabs him anyway!
Yeah doesn't take too long. The wait time is what gets you. I've already finished my second monument and have 2 workshops and 2 granaries. As well as every expansion I can currently get.
Games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley are relaxing. You can veg out and play, which given how stressful and hectic many people's lives are now makes those games very appealing. I don't think It would be a bad idea for SE to make their own game of that nature.
You can queue in it! When you're done with the duty, they have logic to port you back to your island. You can see in the chat log that you actually pop out in Lower La Noscea but then it immediately teleports you (assuming the instance server isn't full) back to where you were on the island, and even remembers what mode you were in. You can even log out and log back into it, unlike personal houses.

Probably the people timegating was introduced to the island to keep from farming non-stop without eating the first place
I just got capture unlocked, and now you've got me hunting shinies.
Hey Preach, people have probably already mentioned it, but the shinies (rare spawns) are actually tied to the weather or Eorzean (ingame) time (or both).

It seems like every time Preach starts off like "I dunno, I'll try it, but I don't think this type of casual content will be for me" then BAM, it grabs him anyway!
after this try and complete and entire pokedex in pokemon of all shinys
Man getting obsessed over catching a weirdly coloured rare animal. I feel like I heard this type of story before.
I didnt even realize there were rares and I've already got the second monument under construction...
Yeah doesn't take too long. The wait time is what gets you. I've already finished my second monument and have 2 workshops and 2 granaries. As well as every expansion I can currently get.
Day 2 I haven't finished my msq yet because damn island is better than expected
Games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley are relaxing. You can veg out and play, which given how stressful and hectic many people's lives are now makes those games very appealing. I don't think It would be a bad idea for SE to make their own game of that nature.
I'm optimizing for crowlies per hour!
Preach became Zenos for a penguin
Same thing happened with me... im not a fan of those type of games but i find myself stuck there enjoying myself way too much
i think island sancturay is for when everyone finally runs out of beast tribe rep to build up XD
THROW WIDE THE GATES SO THAT WE MAY PASSSSS!!
Addicted? Dude, it's been a day.
can you even dungeon queue in this thing? wouldn't it be considered an instance like eureka etc and lock you out of doing something like that?
You can queue in it! When you're done with the duty, they have logic to port you back to your island. You can see in the chat log that you actually pop out in Lower La Noscea but then it immediately teleports you (assuming the instance server isn't full) back to where you were on the island, and even remembers what mode you were in. You can even log out and log back into it, unlike personal houses.
are you planning to dip in dragonflight raiding scene?
Is it like running your farm in WoW? Well, eight years ago, when I played WoW last.
18/20 Bois!!
perfect.
I put in about 6 hours today. I got the black sheep my first go.
Why are you RP walking up to them? You know that doesn't do anything, right?
Honestly forgot you were bald, it feels like an alternate time/mandela effect now haha
I guess you could say you enjoyed your…. Island Expedition?
But did he ever get the red penguin?
Oh new MSQ, New Dungeons, New...wait what's this? Ok Tataru let's go check it...oh. oh no.
Wish I had the money to play this game 😭
I can’t wait till you try a hunt train
I believe that Zepla called this one....
The game isn’t on steam ?
it is
Not on every country.
Region lock, so is best to direct
@@zavi3rz ah well I’m in the states and it’s not on there from what I’ve seen
Final fantasy 14 is on steam. Island sanctuary is side content for that game.
"Might" We all know how this end :D
Where is drama time?!!
My end goal is to get the motorcycle mount which is 24K cowries @_@
I spend 12 rope to Black Chocobo
