The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent
vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums
here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules
document is now in effect.
The current plan is to attempt to start the Holiday Forums on December 23rd sometime during the day. During this time, the Future State Planning Center will remain open. The Holiday Forum merge will last (if Vanilla cooperates) until January 3rd.

"Relocation to land that is not yet ready to purchase will no longer be available as of 6.0."
This site has a good bullet point overview of the live letter.
The housing changes are nice in a vacuum, but unless they’re also planning on increasing supply by a LOT, even more than just putting in ishgard housing, it won’t actually get any ‘easier’ to buy a house with the new system.
The changes seem focused on making it so players can’t get angry with each other. People are already figuring out ways around the new FC limitations.
There are some particularly rare enemies such as King Arthro and Copycat Cassie that drop low% items that go for millions of gil on the market board.
Traditionally my experience with similar WoW content has been rush to kill it with as minimal a group as possible because why should other people also get it? More in circulation devalues the one I might get!
FF14 someone announces the rare is up and everyone waits for as much of the zone as possible to get there before pulling and it's like "good luck on your drop!"
It was at first a surreal experience to be sure.
I did do all that with three days of roulettes and 1-2 extra dungeons so I suppose that's the answer. And if it doesn't count the completion bonus XP than I can see that lasting a while, I'm not sure how much dungeon xp is just from killing the mobs
saw one of my static members just wall leaning in Limsa, so I went over and leaned next to them while I was working through a few videos.
Gives me time to "finish" my lala's story in preperation to play my fresh Bnnuy once they open.
The live letter had a short thing after the housing section that gave a tentative Feb date, but no set day - so anywhere from the start to the end of the month. We'll see if it sticks, but much excite in the meantime.
What was your hp though?
That hunt trains most work, even cross-world, is genuinely amazing to me.
I have so many screenshots with the camera turned around to see the horde of players flying to the next spot.
oof. I didn't see that.
There will be teeth gnashing, but honestly it's not that much of a setback. Especially 79-80 since I'm assuming the "legacy" XP buff (my term) probably will include 79 to 80.
Apropos of nothing, I may just unlock FSH and BTN since they are the only ones I can't casually buy stuff off MB to level.
I think if they need to stretch out their content schedule a few months more to avoid crunching they definitely should, I get the sense they're definitely crunching right now and will be right through release.

Eureka didn't do it for me but Bozja absolutely did. There's some seriously cool battles that happen there.
Being able to dye armor is great, but the fact that dyes need to be in your immediate inventory to use, and the fact that you can only dye items on your glamor plates while interacting with the glamour dresser, AND the fact that, the dye interface doesn't even display that you HAVE a dye unless its in your direct inventory, and the fact that there are SO MANY different versions of dyes, including a lot of 'duplicates of the same color, one version for in-game, one version for cash shop' just leads to a lot of annoying back and forth between inventory, retainer, merchant/crafting, and glamour plate. Just a lot of weird back-and-forth for what should be a pretty mundane task
as a healer, I really appreciate that all their hard work gets me more commendations, and I am sure to toss them one from time to time.
As a system, WoW's transmog has FFXIV's glamour beaten.
The actual options the game gives you to work with are far better in FFXIV, of course, but WoW makes actually using them a lot nicer.
They're definitely on opposite ends of the spectrum, but honestly, I'm not sure which I prefer. It's definitely more acutely frustrating to go through the motions of 'oh that person has a cool glamour...I wish I had the spare space for the items!'
I think FF14 just has a LOT of incredibly impactful database issues, that's causing a ton of friction between design ambitions and design execution, that can be felt in pretty much every avenue of the game.
Absolutely. They've been open that there's technical issues getting in the way of things they'd like to do, which you can probably blame on 1.0 and the rapid rebuild of the whole game for ARR.

There is a minuscule variety of good looks in WoW and if you don’t like OTT huge-shoulder armor the variety plummets from there. I would pay money for either game to get the quality of the other but I’d pay so much more for WoW to get XIV’s look variety.
WoW community vs FFXIV community is a really good example of how game mechanics can affect community. WoW is known for having a toxic community, and a lot of this has to do with how WoW is ultimately designed as a competitive game. From the faction system to the Race to World First to even how mob tagging and gathering nodes work. WoW is a game where seeing other people out in the world makes your life more difficult, and that mindset influences how the community operates. FFXIV, on the other hand, is designed such that more players makes things easier, not harder. Yes, there's competitive elements to the game, but they tend not to be promoted as heavily as the cooperative elements are. The pressures in WoW that would disincentivize helpfulness and courtesy just don't exist in FFXIV. And that creates a mindset that affects the larger community.
