Final Fantasy XIV Has to Face the Reaper Sooner or Later

Final Fantasy XIV is going strong after 10 years, but one must wonder how much longer the critically-acclaimed MMORPG can last.

I can say the same thing about a lot of games 🤔 Why just mention Final Fantasy 🤔

GoodGuy09397d ago

WOW, Warframe, Runescape, Path of Exile are also oldies and still going. Don't see ff14 slowing down.

Name Last Name397d ago

FF14 wrapped up it’s Zodiark saga last year firing on all cylinders. They’re just getting started with the next one.

CrimsonWing69397d ago (Edited 397d ago )

Why? Where’s the World of Warcraft article? If anything, FF14 expansions look better than the base game and feel like an advancement. Aren’t they doing a visual upgrade patch as well?

It’ll face the reaper when people slow down support for it. Until then just sit back, grab a coke, and have a smile. I do t get the point of an article like this.

So, many people love FF14 and each expansion I hear is better than the last. Why would a game journalist feel the need to right an article to say eventually the game has to die?

lodossrage397d ago

Exactly,

World of Warcraft is older so why not go for that? Hell, Wow is the one with declining numbers while FF14 is still rising.

Michiel1989396d ago

cause it's been known for 5+ years now that wow is gonna suffer a slow and painful death, we can't make articles about a game now because another game (supposedly) suffers from similar issue?

lodossrage396d ago

But that's the problem,

FF16 ISN'T suffering the same issue. FF16's trajectory is the polar opposite of Wows. I'm trying to figure how they even come to that supposed conclusion when data clearly shows otherwise.

I get what you're saying Michiel, it's just if someone is going to make an article, they should really have their facts straight

Let’s see…. I played final fantasy 11 for around 3 years. My brother however started on the Xbox 360 and still plays today. It’s that packed on there. Final fantasy 14 vanilla I played from its initial launch on PC. Switched to PS4 when realm reborn started, and played all the way till the 2nd expansion. A few years again. My brother? You gusssed it. Plays it still WITH 11! MMOs only have 3 levels. Dead and searching news to hear about a closure, just scraping by, and thriving. Final Fantasy is definitely in the thriving category. I haven’t SEEN 11 with my eyes since last year, and it was packed then, but me and my brother will be in a PS4 chat and he will be on there.

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_drake45d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK44d ago (Edited 44d ago )

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

RedDevils43d ago

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.

TheGamingHounds44d ago

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

Eidolon44d 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

Aphrodia44d 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.

shinoff218344d ago

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA44d 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.

NOMATICENIGMA44d 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.

CrimsonWing6944d ago

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

NOMATICENIGMA44d 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.

CrimsonWing6944d ago

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