Xeno Reacts to Final Fantasy 14 Mobile Gameplay - Class Showcase

[@kyoai]

When a mobile spinoff game has a more complex damage rotation for healers than the main game.

[@BeckyBucky3]

I think the funniest part is the mobile version will have better netcode than the ancient engine used by FF14

[@puppetstudio4989]

no it does not at all

[@IceboyMyName]

Why does mnk have better animations in this than the game itself? lmao

[@FoxNightDream]

Dude like it's so boring

[@robotom6595]

I really think they need to go through most of the ARR jobs and redo a LOT of animations, especially some of the idles and walking animations. MNK really shows it where there's the 3 new combo attacks in DT that look and sound cool, but you're still hitting the other 3 og attacks that are meh in comparison

[@AlexCole272]

Hell pally have lvl 60 skills in arr mobile. I’m hella jealous

[@EccleezyAvicii]

MNK animations in PC are abominations. The ones in this mobile game look 100000% better and more interesting.

[@SkyboundLight]

"class showcase" - is the morbol gonna move?

[@symphonixblades]

yeah some people still don't understand that class showcase is different from combat showcase, it's just to show the class skills therefore they use unmovable objects to show it better

[@MastatmastaT]

waiting for xemos world first coils clear on mobile

[@1241-c4e]

some chinese guy would somehow manage to do more dps using a phone than 80 percent of the brain dead people in dungeons LAWL

[@NuchiAsaki]

It will be easy with the pay to win gear.

[@muovikallo]

How do you get ACT on this xffing

[@NatiiixLP]

If it releases on Android? Relatively easily. :)

[@Catbot_0004]

I bet they'll just built it into the game

[@richardwicker8456]

Did anyone else notice during summoner showcase how the carbuncles were switching in accordance with the primals? Emerald carbuncle came out when Garuda, then switched to ruby carbuncle for Ifrit, and then to topaz carbuncle for Titan.

[@winspyy]

Before you unlock the egis at lower level it does that too

[@richardwicker8456]

@@winspyy yes, but not at the same time as the primals. I'm saying the different carbuncles are popping out alongside the primal summons.

[@jaquanepatterson2537]

oh! that would be fun thing to have our colored carby's come when we call the big prims.

[@ddbs9415]

​@@jaquanepatterson2537I agree!

[@the7blargs]

Some of these animations while a little rough do have sauce. Monk animations id rather have than what the main game has.

[@kuri_curry]

Agree, it has the 'shinies' but the actual movement is bland to ok. It's new, and people like the new things. But Monk movements are pretty cool in the main game.

[@hokagejason4732]

Dawntrail ruined the aesthetic of monk abilities. All three of the core rotation abilities that got updated versions for DT levels have fire, or wind, or some element tied to it. A flaming punch or two is cool, but at this point half of monks tool kit appears to be elemental. You spend more time shooting fire and rocks at people than you do actually punching or kicking them. Trying too hard to be flashy has ruined the job that is supposed to be anything but flashy.

[@Moneymaker864]

So, mobile paladin has intervene at level 50, yet PC paladin mains have been expressing their feelings for years now about intervene.

[@JustHeal]

SE really pulling a small indie dev company just like Riot Games making the mobile version of their game have the new and better animations. Hopefully we don't get the middle finger too with the designs later on.

[@MechaMeister]

same with destiny mobile. this and mh mobile looking good. tencent also working on elden ring mobile. its the future

[@mchero323gaming]

If there’s only thing I know about FF mobile games is that they eventually get shut down. So hard pass for me on this

[@bluezhift]

I don't know if anyone is really mad about this. It's really a separate game. But if they borrow/steal some ideas from it for the main game we play right now, I won't be unhappy!

[@victorpurificacao2855]

I think this is kinda cool, it might be a chance to experience some kind of "classic" ff14 and replay previous expansions through the mobile game somewhat.

[@Ephremjlm1]

Ngl more excited about this than I am about the rest of Dawntrail lol

[@andrewclear8905]

I’m guessing mostly only Android would have addons / mods, as most people wouldn’t jailbreak their phones for that on iOS.

[@Incensement]

The buzzsaw flip move on Warrior also looks like it was ripped straight out of the NieR VFX mod for Warrior that was made back in Endwalker.

[@klabence]

The big weapon button seems to be your 1/2/3 and the role icon is probably your Limit Break? For BLM it looked like Scathe.

[@carbonide1290]

That Battle Litany animation in 14 when?????

[@Lemongh3]

Looks ok, id have to see some active combat to really get any idea how it plays

[@Oliverph0enix]

1:08 a Florida man finds out about smartphones for the first time

[@denixboi8004]

i like the animations better than the actual game wtf add these as an option SE !!111

[@Faylee]

Gotta be honest. I think the concept is cool. They even have major different Cooldowns for stuff. 2 Minutes for Dragoon is bascially a 1 Minute. More action.

[@ek9750]

that moment when the mobile game combat looks more exciting because the main game got dumbed down so much

[@Mimz670]

As someone who played Kancolle mobile. There are definitely going to be parsers still

[@Koushin9915]

bro, the dragoon looks cooler in mobile

[@SmileyCurse]

Can you post a link to the video you are reacting to?

[@lyconxero457]

I'm actually a little surprised that the game actually looks decent. I like the speed of the action even if I still don't quite understand how the game itself will play. If there's a way to play this on my PC instead of my phone and use a controller then I'd at least check it out.

[@temetito2942]

Will this be available on PC?

[@LaHoraDeWesker]

i love it, the gameplay looks like 11 mixed with 14. seems fun for a mobile game

[@D-Havoc]

Warrior gets circle saws for they attacks?!

[@ZeroTTTempest]

1:08 ???

[@KnightKingofAdClear]

So viera don’t have hats yet but they coming out with a mobile app….

[@IWLGaming]

why did like, none of them walk at all?

[@kilowhiskyforge4337]

Looks like a Spell Rotation Simulator kinda deal, wait so how does long range work and why didnt anyone dodge anything

[@klabence]

It's the equilavent of the Job Action trailer, where nothing moves. You can see a hidden virtual joystick top-right of Xeno's head.

[@yeahnahmate7]

People over exaggerating how "better" it looks than the main game. Plus the main one was made over 10 years ago lmao what do you guys expect, phone or not that's a bit of time.

[@_Crowuh]

They probably expect the updated animations to be added to the main game if they've made improved ones for the mobile version

[@harithwijesinha6747]

Summoning primals in arr content

[@ZansoT]

These animations should've been implemented in the og game when dt launched..oh yeah, iam fucking pissed!!!.....

[@NatiiixLP]

Never mind the Morbol not moving. I'm more concerned about the player characters not moving. Average mentor standing in every single ground AoE incoming. Also, why does BLM have Ley Lines at level 50?

[@klabence]

"Class Showcase", Have you ever seen the player or enemy moving in any of the job actions trailer for retail?

[@NatiiixLP]

​@@klabence I haven't watched them, so... no idea. But if I watch a community-made video, the mobility of a job is one of the most important aspects, considering that XIV PvE experience is 80% dodging AoEs, 20% pressing buttons in a fixed order.

[@klabence]

Also there's a hidden joystick top-right of the shiny bald head.

[@NatiiixLP]

@@klabence Yea, I know how movement works on touchscreen games, but I'd like to see it in practice. Does it have camera lock like Elden Ring? How do you swap targets in dungeons? How do you target as a healer? That's the class gameplay. Who cares about how shiny the skills are if you can't aim them and/or position yourself.

[@paranoiadie4770]

idc . i'm hype for the game

[@CasualReaper]

Black mage looks more interesting in this than the actual mmo. Idk if I’m shocked or surprised

[@1337penguinman]

Different studio with the ability to basically build the classes from the ground up.

[@roronoazoro7317]

Does it really though? Lmao

[@senbujohns4489]

A gapcloser on my stationary game ? AND IT STILL DOES DAMAGE ? Take my money

[@IKIGAIofficial]

They got a faster GCD 😂😢

[@LumiereInfinity]

the only thing im mad about is dragonsight being in Mobile was it was taken from us ;n;

[@xanderc4732]

Yeah.... you have to "Touch the button" for any button to work.... "Is it dead A.I.?" as other mobs walk and run accross the screen. SMH bots must make up most your views I'm guessing.

[@Makkle4000]

Reminds of how Wild Rift for LoL has better animations than the actual PC game oh yeah something something he's still bald everyone

[@JohnStamR]

Not sure who exactly this is for. I feel like there is not that many people that want to play ff14 but do not have pc/console. Unless they think there is a large Chinese market for ff14 that is untapped.

[@jqkm2420]

Automarkers on a mobile game is crazy

[@racoonnoocar333]

Is this game gonna be the next wild rift experience where the mobile ver is better on animation than pc ver

[@jopet216]

This shit looks better than the regular game!! 😂😂

[@DarkMichael9]

lmao bard gameplay looks better than the real game looooooooooooooool

[@medslk9753]

ofc they gonna be mad millions of players subbing everymonth for the same shit no graphic upgrades no better animations no nothing just the same thing over and over again

[@Sockscalibur]

nahhh naahhh NAAAAAUURRRR WHAT ARE THOSE MNK ANIMATIONS? im tilted lmfao

[@GarredHATES]

Can’t wait for my phone to melt

[@stealthcheck]

Chat is 1head.

[@FrEnZyfoX42079]

Im not mad, but im disappointed. Was the development of this one of the contributing reasons why Dawntrail was absolutely trash? We had to suffer with that dogshit exapnasion so square enix could churn out a shitty more than likely riddled with predatory microtransactions fuckin mobile game to recoup their losses.

[@Dracobyte]

Thanks for another reaction!

[@MrNat0z]

Naw bro you use telepathy to activate skills...

[@nelieltu9730]

This looks terrible the enemies don't even flinch at all. It just looks like your are attacking air essentially.

[@NuchiAsaki]

AI is turned off, it's just to show off the skill animations.

[@gmb3682]

why does the mobile app have better graphics than the main game? LMAO

[@KevinSatron]

Nah thats a stretch

[@PareSM]

It might be time for you to upgrade your pc, big bro

[@AvengingFossilx]

You and the 21 people that liked your comment need to seek an eye doctor ASAP

[@thomasnguyen4427]

Copy Paste: oh hey look its xiv/pvp combo mod/add-on! damn, didn’t know the chinese devs don’t mind being open about their love for ****cheating****, amiritefellas??? (says the rangede red tar)

Feller cleave xffing

[@blairwang7572]

pc version‘s VFX is too annoyed

[@KAZITOKI97]

😂soooo now when release?????

[@KrazyBean14]

The fact when the mobile game has better animations. Fucking sad lmao.

[@FoxSiR]

Ayy

[@Jozaros]

Wow, this is garbage boring gameplay. But what do you expect from a mobile game?

[@isthathingsharp]

Waste of time and money.

[@madlinkers8595]

it will still be stale and boring just another tome farming simulator

[@xierotron]

Just give us XIV classic

[@yeahnahmate7]

Why want a worse game

[@xierotron]

@yeahnahmate7 my point is if theyre gonna release this weird ARR thing you might aswell just do classic, instead of this kinda its ARR but not ARR. Also ARR was fun, well after 2.1 but HW is peak for me

[@cool2bekeith]

Maybe its me but the graphics in this look like shit

[@Ypsila]

Is this even legit? Probably just another Chinese bootleg like all their games are.

[@NuchiAsaki]

It's officially licensed.

[@gildias2556]

I just don't get what the point of this is.... Who wants to play this? It looks like shit gameplay. But they dished out the money for better animations I guess.... I'd rather they put those resources into the ACTUAL game though lol.

[@fardin.fkr3]

who is it for? you know mobile gaming is a billion dollor industry right?

[@shiroalter8975]

Also SE didn’t put resources into this, the dev team and its parent company reached out to SE and wanted to do it

[@dawgatemybrain]

@gildias2556 Just because you’re not the target audience, it doesn’t mean there’s no point to it. I’m still waiting for Vanilla WoW mobile.

[@dawgatemybrain]

@@fardin.fkr3 Yeah, it’s bigger than PC, PS, XBox and Nintendo *combined* .

[@AgentNoun]

Keep in mind this is the equivalent to the job action showcases we get for regular expansions. I doubt enemies will just sit there doing nothing in the actual game.

[@gainward2]

if only ff14 pc had combat like this, it might actually feel good to play.

[@peachy7776]

i wish theyd spend money on the real game and content instead of this stuff.. cmon man.. or is this created by a separate company?

[@zabuza3663]

Separate company in China with oversight from Square Enix

[@nightcliff5411]

@@zabuza3663 yes this is for china and mobile players, why would you play this if you can play the og game

[@gildias2556]

That's what I'd like to know

[@SuuMyyDii]

Most "Mobile" versions don't actually come from the same developers. It's likely SE gave permission for another company to use assets.

[@Rogsnutle]

[@EarthQuaKKi]

Chinese dev studios be winning lately.. SE dont give af anymore

[@vergil443]

Nah these animations are bland, uninspired Tencent bs.

[@YuriTardedTarded]

@@vergil443 Cope, Game already has a 1 minute meta, better code, more polished graphics and animations than the PC Version, The original game is cooked if they also drop this to PC.

Looks like a visual upgrade compared to PC, this is a case similar to LoL Wild Rift.
