The ones who spent money on the store are the users, not the devs. And they are failing at bringing the people who would give them the money they want

Sethayy,

by not having a service as good as the competition, thanks to having no devs working on it…

Finally.

They should have done this from day one. Instead of buying exclusives and ruining Bandcamp.

MJBrune,

They bought Harmonix and bandcamp around the same time. Yet… Nothing.

Rather than paying devs for old or new games perhaps Epic could put that money into making their launcher/store good?

The Epic launcher is intensely slow, I've got a 13700k, 32GB RAM, RTX 4080, stupid fast nvme SSD etc. Everything on it should be instant, why does it take ages just to load my library? Why can I not select the library to display by default?

Why is the interface so slow and horrible? Where are all the features of its competitor steam?

Why after all these years has it not seen any real improvement at all?

Does Epic allow you to set your homepage to your library yet? Or does it still unnecessarily keep you to their store or some other useless page?

EvilMonkeySlayer,

Nope, it stills drops you straight to the store.

Halo was my favorite series for a long while. Fell off of infinite quickly after beating the campaign so I should probably boot the multiplayer back up and see how it is now a couple years later.

Temper your expectations. It’s better than it was at launch, but it’s still fundamentally infinite.

I find it good for a few games, but any more than an hour of play and I just don’t want to play anymore. I’ll switch over to 5 or another game.

If you don’t like pvp and you’ve finished the campaign, is there any reason to reinstall this?

PeterPoopshit,

If you’re ever stranded on a desert island, you have nothing but a computer and a bandwidth capped internet connection, download this game until your ISP comes after you and then you’ll be saved

GuStJaR,

😂

Hadriscus,

Bandwidth capped ? I too was around in the nineties 😅

PeterPoopshit,

Is this some kind of European joke I’m too American to understand? In the US the only way you’re getting internet service without a bandwidth cap is if you either pay a fortune for it or if you live so far out in the country they haven’t even invented bandwidth caps yet.

Hadriscus,

I was just reacting to your joke lol

I didn’t think a bandwidth cap was real. like, today ? there are bandwidth caps ? that’s mad. Is there no competition to fight this ?

Zion,

In my European country, there are no bandwidth caps for DSL or fibre connections. But if you’re not in a town (which most of us aren’t) and can only get internet via a 4g (or rarely 5g) connection, you have to live with a shitty 700GB cap, which is fucking ludicrous.

PeterPoopshit,

700 fucking gigabytes over 5g? That is fucking ludicrous. Around here you’re lucky to get a 7gb cap on a 5g plan but I think some people have cellular caps as high as 40gb.

Zion,

I was talking about broadband at home via a 4g/5g router, not on a phone. They offer plans specifically for people who want internet at home, but who can’t get DSL/fibre.

Phones usually have a lower cap, like 50>200GB. I get 50GB with my phone provider for instance.

I used to wonder how SMRPG would look if the graphics were like those renders in the instruction booklet. This is it!

Triple moves seem like a good addition. I kind of wish there was more new content like new areas and things like that.

XbSuper,

I’m happy they stuck close to the original. I wouldn’t be interested if they added a bunch of new areas. The triple combo seems interesting, but even that is a bit off-putting for me. I really do just want the old game with better graphics.

From the title I was expecting some kind of technical breakdown

Man, I want to get back into this game but just don’t have enough free time anymore… Glad I finished Endwalker though. At least that’s given me a bit of closure

Just wait for another 10 years like I did.

Yet another DPS. And then a caster after this… Why can’t we have some more tanks and healers?

Carighan,
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah that’s a bit confusing, too. And sure, Endwalker brought a Healer and Shadowbringers brought a Tank, but they both also brought DPS, and now it’s a DPS only expansion making queues worse again. They need to do 1-2 expansions of only adding a tank and a healer.

Zulu, (edited )

If you’re looking for the real logic behind it, its because the majority of the player base is dps. Every expac has to have a dps as a new class. Otherwise the majority of the player base wont have a new class to play for an expac.

Last expac was healer/dps, one before that tank/dps, and before that dps x2. Its cyclical. So we were “due” for another double dps expac. Obviously the devs and director are free to make whatever decision they want, but this is the logic yoshi/the devs have talked about on their quarterly chats. (To my understanding)

Edit: If you’re looking for sympathy though, yeah i feel it. I always want more tanks. Warrior has always been my favorite and none of the other tanks have tickled my fancy since.

RIPandTERROR,
@RIPandTERROR@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Frankly, gunbreaker should have been a melee casting dps, and samurai should have been a tank. I’ll die on this fucking hill.

Zulu,

I just want classes with big two handers. All of them being tanks sucks. Sam/drg are just a skinny 2h with big muscles. Drk dps rotation lets me sort of live my fantasy though i suppose

DPS are always coddled in MMOs. Unfortunately FFXIV is no different.

Kit, do games w Final Fantasy 14 Shows Off New Viper Class Alongside Final Fantasy 11 and 16 Crossovers - IGN

Cool, I might renew my sub to check out the FFXI content. I still play XI daily so I’d be curious to see what kind of lore they explore in the crossover.

jemikwa,

Fyi we won’t get the first wing of the XI ally raid until 7.1 (3ish months after 7.0, so September/October/November 2024) and even then it will only be one third of the total story. Totally fine if you still sub, but you might not get much value out of it until 7.3 with the second wing some time in 2025

Bimbus, do games w Final Fantasy 14 Shows Off New Viper Class Alongside Final Fantasy 11 and 16 Crossovers - IGN

So glad Yoshi-P was able to get Yoshi-P on board with the 16 crossover.

Katana314, do games w Final Fantasy 14 Shows Off New Viper Class Alongside Final Fantasy 11 and 16 Crossovers - IGN

Hoping for fun times, but I guess I’m a little worried that the story for this expansion might lose appeal without a good conflict.

It’s very possible to make a well-written, region-localized storyline with lowered stakes than “potential end of all life”, I’m just uncertain how well they’ll do that given what the Warrior of Light has been through.
