You can use Cheat Engine to modify your breast size while in game, obviously others see the bust size that you selected in the character creator.

I do it every now and then to make my character flatter, since I don't think the smallest are small enough
There's also a nude mod

>>333436474

i'll resub when the next expac hits

no money for sub

Because it's a themepark MMO with a shitty rotation based combat.

How much is the sub for it? can you pay with paysafe cards?
>>
>>333436474
>Hotkey themepark MMO that's been hemorrhaging subs
No thanks.
>>
>>333436994
I remember trying the trial for the game. I was really digging it, then I checked out /xivg/ and saw how shit it was. Kept me from subbing to the game out of fear of turning into one of them. Didn't help that all Pugs are forced to look like fuckboys and I kept getting asked to join ERP groups.
>>
>>333436713
Sadly, most clothes adjust the bust size so everyone's tits look the same size unless you're naked or wearing certain gear.
>>
>>333437705
12.99 USD a month.
Not sure about paysafe. I normally just use Steam wallet.

>>333437772
I think them losing subs halfway through this expansion is a good thing. I think it's the wake up call that they need.

>>333437779
Pretty much every class goes through that armor set once at low levels, PUG/MNK just have it for longer. I think they look pretty sweet at the higher level sets.

If you aren't trolling or new to the Internet, you will probably get that anywhere you ask. Except Reddit because muh karma

>>333438210
Can't tell if serious or not.
But it is 2 dollars cheaper than the other hotkey MMO competition. Hell, I think even Runescape is 10 USD a month now, and they still haven't finished their standalone client
>>
>>333438708
Entry is 12.99 vs Standard at 14.99.

The way I see it, there's almost entirely no point to ever choose Standard. The way the game works you can do basically everything with only a single character, so I don't see the purpose of paying extra just to do all of the same stuff over again with a different name and look.
>>
>>333436474
Aside for the fact that I already pay for the PS online every year I got pretty shit internet so I can't always get the best out of it. I sure as shit not going to pay even more for a fragmented experience.

>Pretty much every class goes through that armor set once at low levels, PUG/MNK just have it for longer.
It was better then the early stuff, it's just weird how long it took me to get pants. Glad to hear the later stuff looks better but spending the first 20 levels looking like some S&M twink was painful enough.

I know what you mean.
I have to give them credit though, I really like that both males and females have almost the same armor design, except a few pieces. I wonder if that's why a lot of girls play.

>>333439119
Can't you just change specialties once a week as required though? I've never actually done crafting or gathering.
>>
>>333439205
because more and more losers from /vg/ slither over here and shit up threads on /v/, which in itself is confusing because /xivg/ is just a hugbox for the 10 retards there that circlejerk themselves over and over again. why would they want to leave their cesspool and come to /v/ to shit up threads here?

Considering I was in that thread for years, I think I understand pretty well. Character spam was a contributing factor and you're a fucking moron if you think otherwise.
>>
>>333439332
>Can't you just change specialties once a week as required though?

No, because it takes 2 weeks minimum because 480 scrips is required and weekly cap is 450, and at this point in time, red scrips are just far too valuable to waste on changing specialisations.

Specialist system was a mistake.

Got bored halfway through the quests on HW, the OST was the only thing that kept me playing but those quests were too boring in the end.
The most fun I ever had was levelling over classes since I could just do dungeons, kill stuff and get loot, being forced to do shitty quests to unlock flying and dungeons is what really killed it for me.
>>
>>333436474
Played it on launch, but then i actually couldn't pay for a subscription. couldn't find the sub button on their website. it was complete shait. some shit about buying crystals to pay for game time with or whatever. so i actually stopped playing because of that.

They call it NXT, for Runescape Next because they're smart.

>>333442975

Pandas and everything after has caused World of Warcraft to see a 50% drop off in subs. Don't know how many people left after Heavensward. But FFXIV as a whole still had a playerbase 12x smaller than WoW. So even if FFXIV completely died, it wouldn't be as bad as a slide as WoW has been.
>>
>>333443208
I think that it's a good thing. Maybe the devs will finally realize that they need to actually work and make content that isn't immediately invalidated by the next patch or two.
>>
>>333443445
If they think they have time to wait for another expansion to start doing that they're fucking retarded.

And based on how they handle most things, all signs point to them being fucking retarded.
>>
>>333443309
Supposedly so you can get new content regularly and not have any micro transactions.

Except the content this game gets every 3 months shrunk by 1/3 since Heavensward, and there is a cash shop and even extra inventory space costs a monthly sub. (Unless you're smart and figured out the loop hole for trading stuff between alts) Can you believe you can't trade stuff to your alts? Just so you have to buy retainers from square. Fuckin' A.

>>333443346
Pandaland was actually a good expansion too. Blizz put a lot of effort into it. Patches released on an actual schedule and had a variety of content. Too bad people didn't dig the kung fu panda theme, otherwise it would have done better.

WoD managed to be the polar opposite of MoP though. Thematically it was widely received as fantastic, but it had jack fucking shit for content. Turns out no content and relying on mobile-tier timer games kills subs faster than having a kung fu panda theme does.

I do play FFXIV, but honestly I think the only reason I even play themepark MMOs is for the boss fights. Levelling and questing is mostly boring fetch quest stuff, dungeons outside the main fights are at best running through some hallways collecting some keys, no pvp to speak of, the combat doesn't feel particularly fun or satisfying on its own, no character customization or builds to differentiate you from anyone else, all of this makes me constantly question why I play FFXIV

But goddamn if there are nearly no other games these days with so many varied, fun, and difficult boss battles. Much less ones with cooperative mechanics where you and 7 buddies can get together to overcome something which requires coordination and timing to survive.

>>333443861

I actually dislike MMOs where you have to learn dozens of complex hotkey combinations. The problem with FFXIV isn't the simple combat options. Its that there's no variety to combat. About the most variety you get is with a Monk or Bard, where you have a 5-6 hotkey rotation. But you never need to go away from that rotation unless the Tank fucks up and you take aggro or if you're in an AOE zone.
>>
>>333443607
You bring a valid point. It's been shown that they really don't know how to fix the game. I like the game, and I hope they do turn it around, but their time is running out.

>>333444159
I think this one of the things that FFXIV does very well. The boss fights feel epic and exciting. The music and presentation are perfect, and do a great job of hyping you up. However, most fights do boil down to dancing around mechanics.

But it still feels awesome whenever you and a group have been trying to down a boss and you finally do it. It feels great. I still remember beating King Mog EX for the first time. I was so sweaty, and I actually yelled out loud. It was so exciting.
>>
>>333444407
You must be me.

Savage is for autists. Real men play dress up with their cute max height brown giraffe. Thats the only reason why I created an alt.
>>
Stopped playing when Heavensward was released. I didn't have enough money to renew my sub, and buy Heavensward as well.
Tried to play it again last week since I was bored (free week promotion as well), but I couldn't get back into it. I also had to fix all my sets, and hotbars for each class. So I'm just too lazy to do anything on it anymore.

The gear treadmill works so long as the content you're working towards gearing for is fun and challenging is a satisfying way. As soon as you're getting gear for the sake of getting it rather than to do something new it all falls apart

I think MMOs should do what PSO2 does. Its free to play but not pay to win.

>>333445458
But that's wrong. Its one of the best hunting games out there. Besides, simply by having action oriented gameplay it is inherently better than most MMOs.

Ok sure, let's talk about that
If you want to play another class, you're forced to pay for a second mag unless the class uses the same stats

If you want to sell ANYTHING, you're forced to pray to RNG for a 1 DAY SHOP PASS, or pay for premium

You're also implying you can't pay for drop rate and exp boosts

Oh and you can always pay to revive which can be classified as pay to win

Fuck off with that shit
>>
>>333445458

Its better than FFXIV. But then, almost any game trying not to be World of Warcraft is better than a WOW clone. Even with all its problems, Tree of Savior is better than FFXIV. And it just came out.

I tried to get into PSO2 but it was very difficult for me.

And I even got to level 90 something on PSO for GC.

Am I missing something?
>>
>>333445765
>If you want to play another class, you're forced to pay for a second mag unless the class uses the same stats
What? I have two characters in the game already. They're both the same class, but that was by choice. At no point during character creation did the game say I needed to pay to use a different class.
>You're also implying you can't pay for drop rate and exp boosts
Why would you? Its not a PvP oriented game.
>>
>>333445765

Not that guy. But I like how Blizzard put it when they introduced the marketplace for Diablo III.

Basically they said that if someone wants to pay $500 to get all the best gear right on day one, they might as well. Especially since those types of players usually quit the game quickly. And since most MMOs these days are so single player focused, it doesn't even matter if little Jimmy Privileged has the best gear. What's he gonna do? Sit in the HUB and dance around? There's no PVP so who cares?

PSO2 still gives you the option to go and work for your gear. Which you can then brag about and not spend any money on it.
>>

Was Heavensward really that bad?

>>333446039
You don't necessarily HAVE to pay for a second mag, but your stats are going to be gimped if you decided to max S-ATK cause you wanted to play hunter or something, but then decided to play ranger or gunner which is R-ATK

I played PSO1 a ton. But my biggest problem with the original PSO was the bad camera and super slow character animations.

PSO2 fixed both of these things. Some people don't like it because its more action focused, but that's exactly why I do like it. Only reason I didn't keep playing the game is because there's no western server and I couldn't speak Japanese to party with people.

>>
>>333446291
Yes and no.

It really didn't expand much. Yeah, jobs have new tools and stuff but some of the decisions just feel backwards. Like making Bards into Black Mages. Although I fucking love my laser arrows It is 100% a completely different play style than what I was used to playing for about a year prior.

The environments are fucking awesome and beautfiul. The first time I saw the huge snowy area when it was clear weather, I was stunned, it looked so expansive and it had interesting geography.

The story was pretty good in my opinion too. But... The overall gameplay just felt the same. Beat bosses a few times a week. Collect tokens. Get new gear to fight better.

Can we really blame it though? That is quintessentially the MMO formula. It still felt like ARR, just with new areas and a few more tools that each job had. It really didn't feel that much different.

In short, they really really need to find new ways to spice the game up. It's just felt very samey for the past 2.5 years.

The two servers I play on seem to have 90% of the players compared to how it was at launch. Either everyone is just doing end game raiding or the game has lost a ton of people.

Plus, didn't they shut down half the servers and merge the rest together?
>>
>>333447124
if anything the subs are rising since wow refugees are coming over, especially since retail is tanking and nostalrius just shut down.

if there was any sign of decline, servers would be shutting down in ff14 or balmung/gilgamesh would finally be open.
>>
Because Glamour is locked to the level cap for no fucking reason. It pissed me off so much that I quit at 30 when my outfit looked like shit and I couldn't do anything about it.

>>333447593
they never shutdown or merged servers.

Not really. The story has really high high's but the rest is bland. The gameplay is FUN when you have the mechanics of a fight down but stressful otherwise.

You are not rewarded for skill or time, your friend who started the game a month ago can get the best weapon in the game and you're still fucking tearing shit apart because you wasted your drop bonuses for the 900th time.

There is literally nothing to do and not enough new things to do. I took a break a year ago and came back finding out that I can pretty much catch up with anyone in less than a week.

Also hate it when people think that every good mmo needs fast, actiony combat.

Literally everything you said can be attributed to most MMOs as well. Someone could start FFXIV just today and be caught up with their friend in 1-2 months. That's a problem with all content/raiding based games and is not limited to just PSO2.

PSO2 is also not an MMO. Its in the same genre as Diablo. So at least I don't put the same expectations on it.

I picked up the game right around Christmas, and played a shitload of it through January and February. Got through most of the main quests into Heavensward and got to level 60whm + 60fisher + 60 culinarian.

Fairly burned out on it already and cancelled my sub as well. Might pick it up again in a couple months if I get the itch.

It's a good game, but not objectively any better or more replayable than any singleplayer Final Fantasy, and I just don't have the time to bother trying to build social ties in online games anymore.

Tedious grind. I got sick of doing the same shit over and over and over, usually with pick up groups, because I felt no reason to do so. It just turned into shit that felt like a job and I wasn't having actual fun. Not to mention that most of what I fought so hard to achieve became useless in the expansion. I couldn't even finish Heavensward because I got so tired of fighting so much just to get better gear. Not to mention that playing and having to deal with a bunch of retarded people was just far too stressful. The annoyance of bad group members. The worry of fucking up due to a sudden lag spike or my own ineptitude. The necessity of social interaction to get anything done. The constant fear hanging over my head of FC members asking personal questions. I have an actual mental illness that makes it very difficult to deal with things like this that most people may find very simple and negligible. By the end of my journey with FFXIV, I wasn't really getting any enjoyment out of it, so I saw no reason to go on. If I wanted to do tedious slave work (for which I actually have to pay to attend), I wouldn't be a NEET right now in the first place.

I do miss my waifu, though.

Up until about 2009 I put a LOT of days into MMOs (WOW, DAOC, FFXI and EVE).

At some point I decided my life needed to change, and I needed to prioritize real life over guild schedules. Since I made the decision to move away from guilds, MMOs have never hooked me in the same way. Without a dedicated group of bros to play with, they all lose their appeal after about a month.

How do people even get in to an MMO that's been around for awhile now? There are so many story quests you have to slog through in FFXIV to get to the main content and most of it isn't very fun.

The game is essentially time-gated to the point where a new player would have to dedicate several hours of every day for a month to even start the interesting content.
>>
>>333468679
>not playing a game because of a group of people
Really? Y'know you can just not play with them right?
>>
>>333468848
>Y'know you can just not play with them right?

Good luck getting end game gear if you don't know seven other people who have similar time schedules as you.
>>
>>333468838
They probably enjoy the story quests.
>>
>>333468964

I doubt it. They're not any different than the side quests except you have to keep running back to Minfilia to get them.
>>
>>333468902
Even with a full time job, it's really not at all that hard.
Most people do things during the weekend.
>>
>>333468838
well i enjoyed the story and the atmosphere while leveling. never skipped a cutscene, read all the dialouge.
if you don't like the story and stuff its probably not for you
>>
>>333469076

I would love to know how long it would take to reach the end of the story content as it is. I'd be willing to pay someone something like $5/hour to live stream the entire story from start to finish with minimal fucking around to see how long it actually takes.
>>
>>333469110
1k hours in xiv and never watched a cutscene am I doing it wrong
>>
>>333468838
They get on when the catch up patches hit, and it's easy as shit to catch up. The thing is they only catch up to do story shit, because they'll never catch up to raiding.

It's hard as shit to catch up to "raiding" unless you start doing the new shit the day it releases, since it's all weekly gated gear checks. You WILL need at least 3-4 weeks worth of raid/tome gear to even start attempting the last raid instance of the 6 monthly patch, though you can maybe get by with whatever was the upper item level before the patch for the first two instances.

Most people unsub before their free 30 day trial ends anyway, or only sub for a month or two after.

I think this is a huge flaw with the MMO genre. Everything is a time gate thanks to the subscription model, though I guess I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said before.
>>
>>333468838
You'll probably get bored before you even pay someone $10. If you really go through with it, it takes about 2-3 weeks to reach 60 and current endgame on a single class, playing about 8 hours a day.
>>
>>333469472
>gemmed

Kill yourself
>>
>>333436474
I heard DaS3 was coming out so I didn't renew this month.
>>
>>333469881
>it takes about 2-3 weeks to reach 60 and current endgame on a single class, playing about 8 hours a day.

Wow, that's a pretty serious time investment.
>>
>>333470085
it's also a lie
I hit 60 in like 3 days playing about 16 hours a day, you could hit 60 in a week not going super fast
>>
>>333470162
>3 days playing about 16 hours a day

Normal people don't have 16 free hours every day. Are you a Chinese powerlever?
>>
>>333470162
From 1 to 60? Skipping cutscenes?
>>
>>333470085
>>333470162

Or you could just not rush to level cap like a retard and burn yourself out before even getting to 50 while skipping through everything.
>>
>>333470280
no I was just neet at the time and 3.0 literally just came out so I figured I'd rush it because I wasn't doing anything else at the time

>>333470293
yeah I skipped like everything because I haven't cared about the story, but apparently the 3.0 story is actually good

>>333470351
this is an option too, I was just stating that if you really wanted it's not super slow to powerlevel if you desire
>>
>>333470351

MMO's don't start until you hit the level cap. Everything before that is the tutorial. You literally slowly unlock new spells and learn to incoporate them through new dungeons until you hit 60, at which point you're supposed to know your class inside and out.
>>
>>333470464
>skipping

Into the trash.

So again, it takes 2-3 weeks to get to current endgame from 1 to 60, having unlocked everything including all roulettes, except mentor of course. That means having done all dungeons and all easy trials at least once, without skipping anything.
>>
>>333470668

And even then, you don't have shit like your retainer leveled up.
>>
>>333436474

It's not a great game, I've played enough battleship style skill clickers, the gameplay is completely stale.

I think I need to find a stable group of friends to play with.

Quit in january because random pubs as sch pissed me off, war was boring as hell, and dps queues took literal hours.

It's like the community is simultaneously the greatest and worst out of any MMO community. There's almost no middle ground between loldrg and elitist shitheads.

The only decent people I even knew was my FC and after a ton of members quit, left the FC, or changed servers I gave up.

Maybe I should start again and found my own FC.
>>

Because it's boring & slow. All you seem to do is run from one place to the other just to talk to people and the dungeons are boring as fuck.

Don't judge the game by /xivg/. I was part of one of their FCs for a bit. They literally have nothing else but the game and are literal autists. Most of them have some self-diagnosed mental or emotional issues, are NEET and spend all day ingame wanting to chat or erp to forget their miserable iRL exsistance. Some of them are pretending to be girly, fishing for attention they could never get iRL. Naturally if you spend all day in game they are pretty good at it and develope some kind of elitism. No matter who you ask they are always, without a fail the best at their class.

Also, there are a lot of SJW back when I played with them. Someone made a joke about rapeculture and others replied with that it is real and shouldn't be made fun of. That was the signal for me to leave the FC and the server.

I play XIV as a casual and I love it. I love it for all the reasons other people hate it. Lots of random mini game shit to kill time on optionally, combat is easy and slow, there's a story to work though.

i really dislike that you need to grind fates/dungeons to level other classes. wish there was just more questing to do. i actually do feel the urge to resub and try out dark knight, but knowing how the level up process is going to be is already making me not want to resub

I'm a lvl 50 MRD and almost done with the main story.
Should I re-sub for one month to finish the game?
I heard the final boss is pretty neat.
Altough the one friend I played with has stopped i believe, and no guild palls.

They got rid of that shit a while ago. Now you can subscribe on mog station. There's also an option to setup an ongoing subscription for steam users.

At some point I fell behind the curve and I realized there just wasn't any coming back unless I wanted to focus on crafting.

It doesn't help that my raid group is all military and half the group moved to another timezone.

I played the FFXI version for 4 years (03-07), so the FFXIV BLM is a nice retirement for a casual fag like myself.

The rotation has changed though, if you want to make use of Fire IV and Blizzard IV, you have to keep up Enochian, which isn't hard to do, but it can be challenging when there's a lot of aoe spam

Tanking always looked boring to me. I know I shouldn't knock it till I try it, but I just can't help it.
The armor I see some of the Paladins and Warriors wear definitely do make me jealous though.

Because MMO's suck.

No seriously, if the game didn't have traditional MMO elements I'd still be playing it, but GCD, open world, triad, quest NPC or shop npc armor progression and rolling for rares make me wanna sleep. PSO will forever be better
>>
>>333491791
Yeah, I'd rather be playing a single player game since I hate the people that play this type of game.
Or if you're arguing for the opposite, then I'm referring to the fact that getting certain tasks done is 10 times as tedious with a pick up group.

There's the setup post, in b4 shill post.

because the class and combat design kills it

it's a shame because stance dancing and actually being able to contribute as a healer is really great but it isn't backed up by any other mechanics. i don't get a rotation, i don't get procs, i don't get any other systems, i just go clerics for a DoT and one spell because i have literally nothing else to do as a healer for large stints. at least with something like WoW, the DPS you do might not contribute but you get actual mechanics, resto restores MP and does splash healing by DDing, disc gets stacks to spend on a healing CD from DDing, etc. if i got to contribute AND have some class interaction there, it would be much better.

further than that though, the networking and interfacing is still quite bad. its gotten a lot better since alpha and beta obviously, but it gave me a bad feeling back then to be scrapping 1.x, largely in part due to the poor networking and interfacing, and here 2.0 wasn't exactly super responsive in any regard, either.

basically for all it does well, the sticking points still hurt it too much for my tastes. the class designs and combat is super streamlined, everything plays itself, yet the playerbase is still shit at progression. its so basic you'd at least expect it to be snappy, but it's not, it's full of dropped inputs, little mechanics and interaction, and its hard to enjoy a tab-target rotation game which is outclassed in responsiveness and subtly by any old shit like WoW, Rift, etc.

You're a fucking retard, you know that right? The specifically created these things called X-Star Passes. X being a number. You cannot obtain these Weapon Passes without being a premium member and most (I'd say 97%) of your INCOME is from the Player Shop which is also a Premium feature.

TL:DR Have fun not getting shit in this game.


>>333452038
No you can't. PSO2 doesn't get after fucking content updates besides some fucking clothes. There's no PvP to keep you going while we're in a content drought. End Game gear is easy to obtain and the skill floor is extremely low and never rewarded for having the best gear.
The only PSO2 is good for is the anime. If you're an weeabo fag you'll love this game.

He's an alright fighter. When storming the cathedral you find out he's an arcanist. He stays behind to hold off an army of retarded zealots. Obviously he's not as good as you, but i'm sure he'd do fine about generic bird people.
