XI died long ago because it followed the standard mmorpg thing.

i got a ibage from /v/ which pratically explains why FFXI failed.

if XIV doesn't yank the troons hard it will be destroyed by the deviancy of it's players, not because of the GD's retardedness like XI

That graphic actually explains a lot to me as to why i got bored of WoW again after coming back for Shadowlands.

I have neither the time nor the will to block off 3-4 hours a week on a schedule to do the raid so the game ended up being me logging in for maybe an hour a day to do dailies/weeklies. The only new content gets added at the hardcore endgame. That fucking sucks.

XI survived with a player-base of absolute masochists who were fine with the knowledge that the lead dev actively hated them. The majority of shit that led to 1.0 failing was directly copied over from XI, only being tolerated because XI was Squeenix's first foray into MMOs. Once people realized they'd have shit like stamina in addition to MP or TP to maintain that purposely slowed the game down, they left; either MMOs in general or to go back to XI because they didn't want to be fed to Hiromichi Tanaka's grinding machine again.
This is what happens when you apply the LoS/Tigole "raiding" method to a game led by Tanaka; the boss even happened to have no loot table and the players who first beat it got permanently banned because it was purposely designed to be impossible to beat. XI didn't fail, it just stagnated and avoided a degenerate player-base with it's unrelenting difficulty.
Squeenix is going to run into an issue where the non-degenerate player-base is going to start moving out from NA servers and start bogging down EU/JP ones because they don't take (E)RP as seriously over there

you do know that long stagnation for mmo's is failure right? they may not close the servers but the lack of new blood to sustain the userbase then dwindling to only a bunch of retards means the game failed, EOS is another korean mmo that failed under aeriagames, it's stagnated and hardly has new content so only the older players that invested too much are playing it, my account even got time-blocked for all the years i didn't touch that bland mmo.

the ERP's drama was fun to see as it gave me a bit of hope SQ would be sensible and banhammer de degenerate troons to maintain things safe for new players but seeing it was a misunderstanding, i'd say XIV won't last much considering you can be easily banned by a troon and if that ever slips out to mainstream media it will be SQ's trial by fire of whether they keep sustaining themselves on the moneys of degenerates to later stagnate because people are too fearful to be banned for innocent stuff OR take the guild wars 2 route where everything is somewhat bland but okay even for new content with low troon amount doing degenerate shit.
 
Guys I don't know if anyone has made this joke yet but the lyrics in phase 1 of Ruby and Emerald weapons sounds like it's talking about tacos! Get it!? Taco Supreme! Hahaha it's been over a year of this shit and it just won't stop being hilarious!

It is interesting how they keep updating 11 even now though. I was hoping someone still played it so I could understand the new contents story.

I've caught myself humming the misheard lyrics myself whenever I'm doing the fights, but it's pretty much a given for the modern internet to run any sort of joke into the ground and continue repeating it ad infinitum. Probably because there's more newer people hearing it than not, so they think it's trendy to keep perpetuating the joke.

See: Among Us jokes, for instance.

Sometimes people need to let things die.

This is like ugandan knuckles all over again.
 
Speaking of overused memes, I found this in the recommendations for the previous video:

Because this thread didn't demonstrate enough cancer as it is.

Oh God, I had to go look it up because I didn't think a year has passed yet. Where has the time gone?

In all seriousness, I am curious about what the heart of Sabik is since they have been teasing it for nearly a decade.
 
Our group finally got around to clearing E12S and I made a tier list of personal opinions on the fights.

If you rated P1 and P2 Seperately, what would you rate the halves of E12S as? And what about the shadowbringers trials?

And yeah, Umbra sucks. I've been skipping it when I can.

I wish I could have split it for that reason tbh haha.

I'd probably say P1 is B and P2 is C. It felt way more rewarding doing P1 Lions over anything else in the entire fight imo. P2 has some cool ideas, but like it's so much easier then P1 and it looses a lot of oomph for me. The fact we were able to use tank lb3 for last raidwide and still be comfy for clearing just made me laugh considering we had some deaths going into that.

For the trials (extremes)so far it'd prob be like
S: SoS
A:Innocence (Only synced and not tanking)
B:Ruby Weapon, Emerald Weapon,
C: Titania, Hades

Swap Seat of Sacrifice and Innocence and the list is perfect.
 
I still maintain that Quad cast can fuck itself with a cactus.

DPS keep telling me how fun P2 is because they can do the big numbers as really, it's a target dummy.

That's the vibe I've been getting from my Sam. I'm tanking so it's not as much fun for me especially since I'm baiting each time.

Normally I like the training dummy fights but I just hate
Gaia because she's one of the most boring, stereotypical, and one note characters that I've ever seen. Legit I can see why she's a current age Nomura character because my god. Let alone having her as the P2 boss just makes it worse since her design to me just looks like she's wearing a carpet you'd find at some Indian flea market.
