The guy giving first impressions also misses out on the fact that you can be every class in the game on a single character just by changing your weapon. Every class levels independently so on a single character you can play every class and level to max several times. Hence the boost, you level paladin, white mage, and black mage all to level 80, it's kinda nice to be able to buy levels to get to the raid content when you decide you want to play dragoon next. Of course you have to do every class quest for each class to get all the abilities still, so you don't normally have people at 80 running a class in a raid with 0 knowledge of what the abilities do like you do in WoW. Just saying. Worth a try unless you hate everything but WoW by default

As for messing up mechanics.... in FFXIV, when you screw up, you get a 1-2 minute debuff called "Vulnerability" which stacks each time you get hit with said attacks that are avoidable. The first screwup doesn't do too much... but 2-3 screwups later, you will die from these attacks. And sometimes other attacks that you can't avoid, that hurt.... but if you have 3 stacks of Vuln, you're guaranteed to die.

Also, I forgot to mention that when Tanks screw up, that's particularly bad. A tankbuster without mitigation is about 40-60% of a tank's health. With one stack of vuln, this is about 50-75% and two stacks... oh boy. That's cutting it close. Three, and the tank is outright dead without some mitigation. You do not want Vuln as a tank, so the guy in the stream said "oh, that's just the tank" ... uh. The tank is the one guy that NEEDS to NOT be getting hit with Vuln.

FF14's combat complexity comes from having a mix of abilities that are on the long global cooldown, but also *not* on it. By the time you get any DPS class to max level, you're weaving in off-global attacks in-between your on-global attacks, and the idea of hitting a button every 2.5 just goes right out the window. Low level combat feels worse than WoW, high level combat actually feels better than WoW.

Go look up the following FFXIV encounters; The Unending Coil of Bahamut (Ultimate) The Weapon's Refrain (Ultimate) The Epic of Alexander (Ultimate) These are the hardest fights in the game. The main end-game content are Savage Raids, but if you want a Mythic+ equivilent, the Ultimate fights are what you want to look at. They drop exclusive weapons that act like a visual badge of honour, showing everyone you've cleared the hardest content the game has to offer. Best thing about endgame in XIV is that it's 8 man. Any footage you've seen of 24 man raids, ignore those. Those are called Alliance Raids and they come in one difficulty, which can be compared to LFR's difficulty when it was first implimented. You'll wipe if mechanics aren't followed by enough players, but otherwise you're looking at a clear within an hour. They drop low-mid iLv gear and are mostly there for the cool cross overs, like the NieR: Automata cross over raid going on right now. No, the actual true endgame content is 2 tanks, 2 healers and 4 DPS. The main difference from WoW, and the main draw for many players, is that despite healers and tanks still having their job as healing and tanking, they both are also expected to output their fair share of DPS. And that's not to get a "quicker kill" like it is in WoW. Fights are designed with the expectation that healers and tanks are doing their fair share of DPS. Mechanics also tend to be less brain-dead when compared to WoW, and theres a lot of optimization that goes on. For example, there's a fight in the current raid tier where you're meant to run to a safe area to avoid an AoE. However, the area that's safe is completely random. As teams looked to optimize their DPS, it started to become a better option to just eat the AoE and not have to worry about Melee DPS losing a GCD when running to the safe spot. That's an example of a REALLY basic mechanic, but there are lots of other, harder to explain, forms of optimization going on. And there's no DBM. So fights are actually done blind when they first come out. There is no PTR, everyone is on the same page when a new tier launches. Patches are consistant to the point where they release on the same months every year. So you'll never end up with an Obsidian Sanctum situation on your hands. You know exactly when the next patch will be, and when the next expansion will launch, since they have that level of consistantcy. This year has been an exception due to COVID, but they're only a month or 2 behind.

The only flaw i see in this game is, that for a new player like me, who never played an MMO, its pretty boring going in a dungeon clearing it first try without any troubles. the problem i see is, that in the first time fighting a boss or dungeon through MSQ you can still get queued with people that already know the fights mechanics. For example the last story Boss(es) from realm reborn i could have just been standing at the start of the dungeon and just waited for the team to finish the boss, cause everybody knows what he has to do. Maybe having something in the game, that leads to playing your first time of a dungeon queues you with others, that are playing it first time. I realized that after doing an lvl 60´ish Dungeon in Stormblood with everyone doing it for the first time, and i never had so much fun getting wiped and clearing the dungeon after a FEW tries, because it was really fun finding out the mechanics ourselves instead of getting carried through 95% of the game. ofcourse you cant really implement it in that kind of way, cause the queue time of an DPS would skyrocket in the air, but i think it would improve the fun in playing dungeons. If you read all that have a nice day, and if you didnt have a nice day anyways

The voice acting in ARR (the portion of the game before the first expansion) can get grating after a while as the characters HAVE to use super proper pronunciation and have strong consonants, but literally the moment Heavensward starts they replaced EVERY voice actor (for the better,) but I think what they really did was replace the voice director, because all that annoying voice work, which was literally universal to EVERY voiced character, was suddenly gone and people were a lot more natural sounding. It was still jarring AF when you hear Sam Riegel at the end of one main story quest and literally at the beginning of the next one we hear Colin Ryan from the same character.

@@Wellshem When did you start playing? The last REAL good mmo I played was WoW tbc. Wotlk was still really fun but it also was the start of the downfall of the game and unfortunately the entire market followed wow's new formula of make the game easy and boring as fuck until cap level. Mmos used to be incredibly immersive and challenging. You had to group up to do anything, even travel to a city (everquest) and it created a strong community. Now days mmos are just lobbies where you queue for mini games. The mmo genre was ruined because of wotlk and wow just keep making it more and more casual with every expansion. I played wow shadowlands. Just feels like a job. Game has no heart. Community sucks ass. I don't even think FF14 is that great, but for a modern mmo that follows the shitty wow formula of bore yourself to death until cap level, it's the best one. FF14 end game is amazing. Wow end game is boring.

AoEs and indicators in FFXIV are usually fairly uniform or simply invisible. A "players stack" marker will almost always look the same, etc. A lot of WoW mechanics have unique graphical effects like Trilliax slime pools in Nighthold. Raid hazards in WoW often have similar meanings with very different appearances. For me it's difficult judging the absolute edge of a WoW AoE because they're often not perfect shapes and can have misleading boundaries. This combined with the inability to disable player-only effects from others makes being melee in WoW more annoying than it has to be imo.

Matter of perspective? FF14 has objectively way more special effects going on. WoW has 40 man raids so it's not even because the effect themselves but the sheer number of them at once. I don't even play WoW but I always found its gameplay much more readable than FF14 especially if you didn't turn off name displays. Then it's really hard to see anything that's going on but FF14 is so easy for the majority of it's content that you really don't need to see lol. It's not even really an opinion it's just kind of a fact that Final Fantasy has over the top Animations that are the flashiest stuff in the whole industry.

I've seen some of Asmongold's videos talking about XIV and I'm getting the impression that he might be willing to give it a try, but he's worried about losing 3/4 of his fanbase who have based their entire internet personas around hating a game they've never played. I've played both WoW and XIV like most of us, but I certainly wouldn't say one is better than the other. They may both be MMORPGs, but they're definitely not the same game, nor would I consider them direct competitors like Battlefield and CoD. Of course try convincing that toxic chat on the left side of the screen of that. Imagine insulting entire groups of people because they don't play the game you want them to.

As a FFXIV player, FFXIV is sadly one of the games that this rule does not properly apply to. Although the high level, raid, endgame experience and story are awesome, the early game repetitive mandatory quests along the relative slow and newbie-friendly 2.5 GCD are a real pain to push through for anyone who has mmo experience, specialy comparing to WoW. Of course this is on the other hand great for generally new gamers and all the other mini games and collectibles are addicting too, but I'm sure that the level boost / story skip is mainly there for WoW veterans who just want to look at the raiding content.

@@pikolino210 You can't blame on that. Because we all know not just FFXIV but all FF series it main point is on Story. So if you didn't like ARR Story I mean it reasonable. Because we as FFXIV player also think that trash to be honest , not story telling but the speed progression on ARR is painful to go through. Example when you finally get to fight primal and you know what happen? It just tell go fetch some stuff before the fight ... That time I was like.... Wth...

If they want to play a female character, that is THEIR choice and it doesn't matter why he can't wrap his brain around it.

FF14's story is really odd: the story of base game and first expansion are really FF story. Story of the second expansion takes slight deviations from that but is still a FF story. Story of the latest expansion, however, is objectively one of the best storylines in rpg games ever, let alone FF series. I can see Asmon not being into ARR that much but I think he might get into HW. As far as gameplay goes, they made it faster for low levels so it can be a drag but less. Usually is until lvl 50. lvl 70 is where it starts to really pick up while current endgame stuff is some of the best content I have ever seen in mmorpg/rpg game. Honestly, I could see Asmon enjoying current endgame content. If he wants hard content, yeah, there is a ton of that. I think he just needs to get past the braindead "ew weeb game" argument.

Probably. And he'll hate it. XIV's big selling point is the story, and if you're not sitting down and paying attention through the whole thing, even the best moments fall flat. He could absolutely pay attention and go through the whole thing, making funny commentary on the story and it'd probably make for good streams, but I don't think he himself would enjoy it much, since, like he said, he only wants to fight the strongest bosses and get the best loot, which is hundreds of hours into the game and not something he can just PUG into.
