[XIV] Heavensward Discussion
By Draylo 2015-06-24 17:43:20
lol funny, they all jumped to the FFXIV bandwagon and now its taboo to bash it at all. Yet every single FFXI thread about any kind of update, you will see the same culprits bashing the game endlessly without consequence while people are just trying to enjoy the damn game.

Really hoping the PS3/PS4 are not more inept than the PS2 when it comes to the types of content we can have. I can't pull a quote from anywhere, but I think I remember reading that they would drop PS3 support if needed, unlike PS2.
Again, I can't source that, so don't take it as fact~ but I figured I'd at least mention it. They planned to drop PS3 support around Heavansward, or some type of verbage. Theyve stated that if consoles hold the game back they would rather drop the consoles than dumb the game down.

It doesn't make it any more right to come in here and bash it because people complain about XI.
People is a general term, what moderators need to know are the specific people that come in and bash XI in XI threads. I'd recommend letting them know who to keep an eye out for so they can take action against it. They aren't able to read every thread, and rely heavily on the report function to get things done. Be responsible and let the moderator team know.
Two wrongs don't make a right, especially when it's people who aren't bashing XI.

They know who the people are... We ALL know who the same idiots that bash XI are lol. They do nothing about them because they don't care, hell some of the mods even bash XI. Yet now that people are coming with constructive criticism in a thread you labeled "discussion" they can't say anything negative? Seems a bit silly considering all the XI hate that is easily thrown around. I haven't bashed anything in this thread though if you are specifically talking about me.

Okay, but we have some new moderators. I'd recommend letting them know because they might not be as familiar with who is known for doing what.
Can't always blame everyone for a problem that exists, if you want something fixed try to be a little more serious about getting the problem you're seeing fixed.

it is mostly to discuss new content, discoveries, support, achievements for the new content, and not as much as to beat the dead horse with a stick and go around sidetracking about SE's poor decisions, business model or just QQ about stuff they dont like.

I'd recommend not listing users names here, as that's no better than a player warning thread. You're calling them out publicly when you should be addressing the issue with a moderator, like Rooks!
Rooks has been doing a lot for the site lately, I'm sure he wouldn't be against trying to address some users concerns about certain users making threads un-fun for others by bashing the game they like.
Really, just because a small group of people are doing something doesn't make it right if you do it to other games.

I'm beyond the point of caring about seeing it fixed. I just felt it necessary to point out the hypocrisy. Now that its a game you care about and your clique all of a sudden its a nono.

no need to pry Draylo as we are not welcome here Everyone is welcome here, just not the criticism against the game, which isn't needed at all and doesn't contribute to the discussion, just adds page numbers of bickering and pushing people away.
Same thing with any XI thread, and I would recommend the same action in those threads as in this one.

On the dropping of PS3 support bit, Yoshi said Heavensward was gonna work for them, but future support would likely end after it, as in the next expansion isn't guaranteed. This was in several live letters and interviews if I'm not mistaken, but it has been said several times now to get the point across to the more stubborn people to jump to PC or PS4. They even extended the PS3 > PS4 transfer campaign to get the point across.
Anyroad, I just learnt tonight that you actually get new job quests every two levels post 50, as opposed to the usual 5, so I hope nobody else makes the same mistake as me. I kinda figured when people said "56 and 58", that these new things would just be class abilities auto unlocked, and nope, not the case at all.

Thought I read that they'd drop PS3 support at the last 3.x patch

Just hard to find players that actually have opinions on other sites, god forbid trying the OF. I'm not against making a thread where users discuss some of the issues with the game they'd like to see fixed, but I have a feeling it might cause a lot of drama...
and I wouldn't recommend going to a game's OF to do so, you'll have a lot of diehard fans that would fight to the death to defend what they love. Nothing wrong with defending what you love, but it probably wouldn't be a good idea starting something like that over there if you're looking for some type of mature discussion about real issues.

I will say that I have enjoyed the new music in Heavensward very much, and I think some of them became my new favorites.
Really well done. I'm very pleased with the music choices.

Got a triple triad board for the house, had to remove the chairs though because it makes you stand up lol
I thought it might be fun to have a Heavensward discussion topic, so I made one in case anyone wanted to use it. :)
