This fight looks super cool, but honestly having played the game for 20 levels so far, I still hate the movement and havent been able to get used to it. Since the game has controller support Im not sure why it doesnt allow WASD movement. Hoping that changes but not holding out for it.
this is normal mode, there is hard and hell mode.
jeez, why do games require a PhD and an insanely good memory nowadays ?
There are some cool mechanics here, but overall this really makes me appreciate how short FFXIV raids/trials are.
I would rather have a really hard fight with constant mechanics, but keeping it short.
This fight is basicly one mechanics for like 5 minuntes, then burn, then one mechanics for 5 minutes, then burn.
Funny to see people complaining about LA's camera angle, meanwhile everyone in FFXIV zooms the camera out to max distance and tilts the camera at an angle anyway…
It's overexaggerated by the guy to just showoff look how hard this game is etc
There’s just to much visual vomit going on for my liking in this game tbh it sound crunchy and I guess it looks cool but meh not for me. Glad people are finding enjoyment in it though.
game looks aweful
I'm playing lost ark right now but man, I think FFonline is game I should try
Compare to FFXIV, LA raid diificulty seems against the devs rather the boss, as they are throwing you annoying punishments for the sake of just being difficulties rather than actual combat mechanics from the boss. For example the math one, and if one dies it is wipe, etc.
I know i'll never be good enough to clear this raid but holy crap does it look cool as shit
This fight looks incredibly cool, I just wish it wasn't attached to one of those korean scams.
FF14 is a single player walking sim with countless hours of unvoiced cinematic. There is no Point to loot progression as dungeons DELEVEL YOU. Combat is trash and story is worse.
I dont know who ever said something about Gw2 Raids being better,, as one who did wing 1 to wing 5 and wing 7 Qtp, i would say Lost ark Raids is wild and awesome compare to Gw2, even as it breaks my heart biasnesss XD
Lost Ark makes me wonder what FFXIV could be if they dropped all legacy support from it and went completely next gen for console (and consequently for PC as well).
I'm too autistic for this game x.x
Glad that destiny 2 raids are nothing like this as i doubt i could ever finish one
I will never ever play this game but damn it looks so amazing the music and graphics. I bet the storyline is pretty good.
"Raids". You can solo everything incl. tier 3.5. Been playing on RU since beta in 2017 till 2021 and you can solo everything because its all scaled and yet the same rewards. You dont get pushed into 10-25-40 men content, there are NO RAIDS. This is a MMO _A_RPG. Therefor the P2W part of the game isn't P2W if you want, because nobody will notice your gains from paying, this is a sologame. The official launch was in 2019 and today in 2022 there still are no raids on RU servers, you can solo everything. Therefor many of the Western playerbase will be dissappointed when they realise that this is just a ARPG and no MMOARPG, the only MMO part about it is meeting others playing (rushing) in leveling zones and the global (area) chat, but it's a ARPG like Path of Exile where it doesn't matter if you play solo or with a 5 men party. There is no such thing as 10-25-40 men parties in this game. Western people will be disappointed so hard, I follow asmongold and he also never talks about it because he thinks there is a difference between tier 1 or 3, there is none except that you need tier 2 gear to clear tier 3 raids, but you do it all solo. This isn't the game people were waiting for, the hype will die fast when people realize that. Chaos, soloable, Abysall, soloable, Towers, soloable, Guardian, soloable, everything = scaled & soloable with same rewards. Western MMORPG players want to get PUSHED Into doing content (read: raids) to "complete" content, this game doesn't have it and never will have. Tier 4 is coming in RU and it's the same like the previous tier 3's. I find it surprising that streamers don't talk about it, or maybe they are paid not to.
The HP bars allows for mechanics that otherwise wouldn't be applicable.
idc about multiple health bars, we had them in 1.0 too, but only on Nael (Hard) if i recall, and it was only 2 haha.
1:30 it's because that way you can skeep dopamine high because the bar keep being deleted over and over again. instead fo showing something that barely move
Lost Ark's Combat is so good, and visually i think Lost Ark is miles ahead of any other "mmo/rpg" in how they deliver it.
Considering the game is Isometric by nature, the way they make use of other camera angles when delivering great visuals are among the best i seen.
1:20 I don't even play the game and I lost 200 braincells because of that question. Why would he think it is easier to calculate 2283647852*0.8 rather than remembering that at 120x phase XY starts and looking at the top bar and seeing a 121x and knowing "ok one bar remaining till phase starts"
HP bars is way easier than % since its more specific
The isometric camera in this game really gives the devs more creativity with mechanics. If this game was a regular mmorpg like WoW or ffxiv then most of these mechanics would not work as smoothy
Did he actually say, at the end of the raid "and that's it."? Seriously?
I like using shapes to communicate numbers with the number of sides, that's better than FFXIV's method of just putting a number of dots above your head imo.
No idea why a circle is 2 instead of 1, though. Really creative mechanics as someone who's never so much as tried Lost Ark before.
Click to move is really bad thats ehy I play with controller
Helth bar lets it mark new mechanic more precise if its splits to lines
his chat is a bunch of idiots "ALL DPS" "ALL DPS" thats untrue. Bards are 80% support/healing and 20% dps, and paladins are about 50 50, and gunlancers have a taunt and self shields that make them incredibly tanky. There is ABSOLUTELY A tank / heal / dps dynamic in end game in this game.
the click to move isnt even that bad, you just hold down your left click. It lets you do attacks while moving much more easily because it completely frees up your left hand QWERASDF are all hotkeys.
If it was % base the HP bar would look like it as moving so damn slow it would be annoying. This makes the progress feel much more satisfying,
What a fucking waste of time. Who literally wastes time memorizing this shit?
im obssesed with his beard i cant stop looking
I spent 2 weeks to beat this raid boss 🙁
So hard to understand gimics
"And then there's a transition"
Jesus imagine progging this and seeing that transition over and over and over agian. I'd want to go back to E8S
Korean games like big numbers. Just like their currency.
1 USD = 1193.70 WON
:p
I am playing Lost Ark, but I am not sure if I wanna do an entire ape intelligence test to kill a boss. This could just be too much to be enjoyable for me.
I just dont like the diablo perspective for a mmorpg. Gonna stick with FF
