I mean, where do I fit into that? I play FFXIV for like... 2, maybe 3 months every expansion.

I also strongly dislike how deterministic gearing is outside of Savage Raiding. If I can look at a spreadsheet to determine exactly what gear I will be wearing on what day from Day 1, it kills my motivation to keep the grind up. Some amount of not knowing what's coming is good, and FFXIV has so very little of it -- the opposite problem of what WoW has had at times. I haven't "quit" FFXIV.

That was all very cool. Just goes to show how many things you can get lost doing in this game to your own content as well all the different versions of what you consider to be endgame. And make sure you get that house 🏠. Having a great sense of humor in your adventure in FF14, and as a content creator….. that’s GOLD!

Both the new island that no one knows where it is and the new housing area in ishgard together with new rules on how to get houses. There are rumors there are people that are just paying subscription to keep their large house or medium. I would LOVE a new house but I got noooo energy for the click-wars. Too brutal for me!
Okay I am so sure that pint edited out something from their original video. There was a bit about skipping story and how you shouldn't do that and I can't find it anywhere anymore :O
Tank role elemental armor. Requires grinding through all 4 Eureka zones, fully upgrading a relic weapon, unlocking 50 actions, and then grinding some more for currencies to buy each piece. But it's the most eye-catching armor in the game so it's worth it.
ive played for 3 days and u cant compare fiinfalfantasys with wow. wow is so outdated and the devs beat their fans over the head with stupid shit that makes me question why i played wow for so long. ill try retail if they change their ways. x for doubt
It'd take something like straight up firing and remaking most if the dev team at this point, I'm sure. At least the ones who talk to the playerbase. They've got their heads that they'll never change and start listening to somebody else's feedback about the game.
Can someone seriously explain why so many WOW players call FFXIV a "Vibrant Colored" game? WOW is in a complete cartoony style with extreme bright colors. FFXIV is the direct opposite.
Cause in FF every skill has it's own animation with it's own effects and that for some reason disturbs wow players that have been playing 17 years with the same 3 animations for all their skills.
I feel like reaction vids should have to pay a fraction of their profits to the reacted to video. Pints videos are criminally underwatched and deserve at least twice the views and the fact some reactions get more views then his video is sad.
I mean, it's free exposure. The hardest part about bring a youtuber is getting seen in the first place. He wouldn't have nearly the amount of viewers he has now if people never reacted to his videos. It's invaluable for small youtubers.
Its just similar. If you watch Pint's WoW content its pretty much his own style. With the amount of effort that goes into both of their edits, calling either a "copy" feels really weird. *although yes I thought of IH too with the ad read*
what is this shiity UI? imagine if these content farmers would actually give good critism and feedback to the game not just content farm. Imagine a final fantasy game with good action combat, ability to tame open world monsters as your mounts, fun gamemodes from Arena, open world raid bosses people would fight over for.... even Capture the fla g or King of the hill. make it free to play. sell good skins. thats what Final fantasy genre needs. also good social system like voice chat or voice bubbles or like New World chat I guess... the game has some really good PvE elements, music, zones bosses, story.. but its not a complete game lack of social features like chat bubbles, smaller nameplates aka small text font size option (last time I checked there was only normal and big option=) and no vocie chat. you have an outdated combat and subscription model with convoluted login/register/buy game systems. u lack social and PvP updates. u lack innovation. u don't even wanna complete game. u don't combine PvE elements with PvP. like open world raid bosses where players and guilds would fight to contest them. they could drop epic mounts. or exp/gear tokens that could be 1 alternative to story progression. or the ability to tame open world monsters as your mount. but most good mounts are locked behind a paywall or insane grind. u don't have Frontline sound or graphic notification. the lack of PvP mounts/events/quests. u only care about PvE and story players.u focus on shemale model instead of updating your game lol. also no blue mage in PVP (most good MMORPG animations main character is classless class. from Kirito to the main character in the Kings avatar animation. u don't have a single good 4v4 map like Heavens Arena from the King's avatar.

Same reaction to exploiting the working class too! **Capitalism intensifies**

Pint must be his son. Kidstorian.
He said in one video that internet historian is a huge influence to him

Thanks for the home - I like the ambiguity of it. 😊
I know right
3:05 Sure that isn't Beaumont in that trunk?
"Who's Beaumont?"
"an employee I had to let go"
