    YoshiP was giving a clinic on how to manage expectations. He would give examples of what he was and was not going to do, monitor chat in case people got the wrong message, and did a very good job describing how things would roll out. He also explained limitations, and why things were being done.
    I wish we could get realistic presentations like this during E3, instead of just trying to hype things to the moon. It would be good for the industry.

      Yoshi P is an exemplary project manager in a lot of ways. The XIV production schedule is the pinnacle of waterfall development cycle - everything is planned meticulously out, sometimes years in advance, and because this team has now been doing it so long, they are aware of how much work they can accomplish with the resources they have in the time that they have (classic Iron Triangle) which is why the request for 2 additional weeks for QA is quite acceptable. Testing an enormous system like a global MMO is an additive process, and each expansion has added new zones, new systems, etc. I'm sure much of it is automated, but it seems like every dev team member is expected to play through the new expansion and patch content as well. That takes time!

      I think the trust system will be good for new players. People in lower level MSQ dungeons can be negative or make certain content more difficult. I do think those lower MSQ duties (Prae for example) will likely be more difficult for a new player in a trust than with experienced players, but some may want that more genuine experience.

    It's really refreshing to see a company say "we're going to slow down the release schedule of updates." I know that sounds odd, because most people's reactions would be "what no I want my stuff." But in this day and age, I would much prefer having content that takes longer to release but comes out as quality and enjoyable. It's the polar opposite feeling from Blizzard. As it turns out, I really just want to have a fun game, I don't care *when* I get it. And if hell freezes over and I somehow get bored of what's currently available, I can play something else for a bit, knowing that when the next thing comes out it's going to be fun.

    The G shaders idea I got from this channel, I spent hours applying settings and shadows and bloom. It's like wearing glasses, It has been FANTASTIC visually. Sunrises have been amazing where I just have to stop and watch, faces have depth, and the 'fog' that convers the image was removed. I've seen a lot of videos where they over do it, less is more with these things. I've kept the artifacts to almost none. I've loved it, and when they add these lighting options, they should merge well with little fuss. I can't wait!

    In regards to XIV crafting, I know there is talk about "macros" as if they're a negative thing, but personally I derived enjoyment when leveling up in ARR, figuring out a "rotation" that worked for whatever my current leve target was, and making that into a workable macro to eliminate or minimize RNG. It was something that got a bit easier with every crafter at 50, because they'd bring new cross-class skills to the table. That last part isn't really there anymore but you can still try to figure out what works for you in terms of macro, based on your current level and stats, while you aim to hit the next Ishgard restoration collectable. And if you feel like spicing things up there's also things like the Moogle/Namazu beast tribe quests.

XIV's graphics are fine and they will be fine 5 years from now. I mean, consider this, FFXI is still being run and have you seen the graphics of _that_ game? Or how about games like Terraria and Stardew Valley? They are mega-popular on Steam, in fact Terraria just won the Labor of Love award ahead of several big budget AAA games a couple months ago. You _DO NOT_ need ultra 4k graphics for a game to be good. If you did, then WoW would have been dead years ago. What _will_ hurt an MMO, though, is people being forced to quit because their aging computers can no longer run the game. With the Parts Market the way it is... upgrading your PC to stay in an MMO might not be financially feasible. 5 years ago, you could build a new bang-for-buck tower for $900. Today, that's getting closer to $2k. Not everybody has that kind of disposable income laying around.

Those seem to be the 2 duties that cause the most issues. I've noticed people can be much more toxic in these 2 duties because they either feel it is too long (Prae - just there for the tomestones) or not enough XP (Castrum- there to level).
      That said, I don't think these 2 duties will be as easy as they are now either unless they purposely make the easier. People in a trust will be going in somewhat blind with nobody to guide or help. It will take longer if they don't know what they can or can't skip too.

If the idea is for a person to never have to party up while doing MSQ (other than 8-man trials...for now), then they would either need to drop the requirements lower, or make trusts.
      Also in command missions, all the mechanics go on you, so you can't really learn by observing the trusts. (Doing Sohm Al, you end up with quite a few mechanics on you at the same time in the last boss, not a single one of them on the squadron). This makes it less ideal for a person with anxiety.

    When a game team has a proper projection, checkpoint planning.. basically proper management and planning *before* the task, not month-by-month... you can project your deadlines easier and know where to cut. Which is what square does, and most other studios don't.

    saw the graphical update live and was freaking out with all of my friends while we were at an in-game bar. there was a lot of "GRASS" and "WEED" in our linkshell chat
    also i would agree that the trust system does punish more because the npcs are programmed to move to a certain spot with circles, and if you're not in the open spot they won't move at all to allow you to scoot in. it is a really good learning experience though, i always do trust the first time to ensure i don't ruin anybody's roulette lol

      Trusts have killed me a couple times while I was leveling alts, because I would get a stack marker and stay in melee range to hit the boss, like most players would. Meanwhile, the trust gang would stack somewhere behind me and just watch me get obliterated by the stack marker.

    I'm kinda worried though, if they start doing all of these improvements, I _hope_ they will let you play the game _without_ the graphical overhauls -- PC Parts are *not* cheap these days, and some of us have aging computers because of it. I'm running a Ryzen 1500x (first gen) and a 1050ti. I'm not sure I would be able to handle all of these overhauls. I'd hate to have to quit because they bumped the minimum requirements up too high. I just can't afford a new PC right now.
