Good god this games looks amazing and ive never even played a final fantasy game before! they should call this fantasy simulator!

paradigmfellow3302d ago

I am still not coming back to the game.

It's a good game but you just need so much time to play it. I subbed for a few months and didn't even make it to level 50. There's no way that I'll catch up on all the content. Great for active players, though.

paradigmfellow3302d ago (Edited 3302d ago )

I got burned out from a lot aspects of the game. When I quit, they added too much grinding content. I also hated the rng for coil drops. I was a SMN and I was holding my coil group back because no casting gear was dropping (during second coil). I couldn't get a lot of the token gear (I forgot the name of the stones needed to buy them) because of the ridiculous amount of acc you needed for the pet and the useless spell speed on it. Furthermore, my job (smn) has now become the worst job in the game.

Actually, it's got a lot of DEAD content. SE managed to make 99% of the content useless. It's all about glamour and getting stupid colored horses. No real challenge, no real PVP, no real progression. Coil is like playing DDR. Once a good group post a video on YouTube, if you have a decent team, you are going to do it as well the same way. Been doing the final coil since the third week into it and the game got boring as hell AGAIN.

They managed to add a Primal Battle (Odin) to give ONLY GLAMOUR ITEMS. Like fashion or costumes.

I don't care for that kind of crap. The game is more like a "Casual Gamer Simulator" than anything else, not to mention the horrible gear progression and stupid loots you get on final raid that, somehow, tends to be WORSE than gears you can get without doing any raid at all because of really bad stats progression.

The game is boring and dull, just looks pretty.

Xbox Profanity Filter Is Ruining the FFXIV Chat

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

gold_drake22d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon21d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia22d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

shinoff218322d ago

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA22d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA22d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6922d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA22d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6922d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
