Hi Gamers!
They've made some big changes to the companion app, and in my mind it's absolutely worth the download - and for most players, maybe even the $5 a month. It even has an unbelievable feature not available in game! Watch this video to see what it can do now!
Thank you so much for watching Gamers, and I'll see you in game!

they should totally let us play the toy chest games on the companion app :p

@gamer_debbie 12 дней назад

That's a good idea!💜 I don't see why they couldn't add that in, sometime in the future. But they've been very tight-lipped about any work they're doing (or have done) on the app. I wish there was a bit more communication regarding their plans for it.

Didn't know they updated the app! Thanks for the video.

@SaltRockStacker 11 дней назад

That is pretty cool. I wish they would implement a system with Companion where you can order your retainer to tend to your garden instead of having to do it yourself in-game. Even if it costs Venture tokens to do so.

@gamer_debbie 11 дней назад

Oh gawd yes! 💜I can't tell you how many times I've been away from home with no access to the game when I realised I won't be able to save my plants. It would be a lifesaver!

@TrTai 10 дней назад

Glad this came up, got it updated and it finally feels like an app. The inventory and retainer management is so nice now. I wish it would let me use my actual ventures to send them off but it does make it a lot easier for me to keep up with them

@gamer_debbie 8 дней назад

Awesome! And totally agree! 💜 Can't wait until I can keep sending them out on some hunting ventures for in-demand crafting items for DT. The gil. Think of the gil! Looks like you can't repeat quick-ventures more than once, but hunting you can keep doing and the items can go right onto your retainer.

Thanks for the video, Debbie! Ill def check it out again, havent looked at it in YEARS. One small note, back the mike up an inch or two, it is way too close to your mouth as the "mouth" sounds come through very clearly (the saliva sound....idk how to explain it LOL)

@gamer_debbie 11 дней назад

I updated the app but I'm not able to change the background image. Only the theme of the menu. Your video skips over where Style Settings is located.

@gamer_debbie 11 дней назад

I'm sorry! 💜 When you're on the homescreen of the app, there is a icon with 4 boxes stacked in a square in the very top left of the screen. Click that to enter the layout editor. Next, there is a phone icon with a gear on it next to three vertical dots at the top right of the screen. Click the phone. The menu it takes you to is the style settings menu - with text, menu, and wallpaper settings. I really hope this helps!

Yay! You're stronger than I am! I don't think I could ever, for any reason, let go of that extra saddlebag space. But even worse to see your items there and not be able to get to them!

@evandavis5223 8 дней назад

I was very excited to hear about the handling of retainer ventures via the app but I ran into a problem. Once a retainer has finished a venture, the only option it gives me to send them back out on is hunting. I've been sending them on quick ventures because there's specific gear I've been trying to get that only comes from the quick ventures. If I can't select the venture I want then there's no point in doing it through the app. At least the inventory management has been useful.

@gamer_debbie 8 дней назад

I think I know the reason why this is the case... It's because quick ventures can potentially bring back items that are 'unique' and it could run into issues putting it into your or your retainer's inventories. So it has to hold it as pending so you can deal with it in game. However... Hunting/Gathering ventures bring back an item that is immediately placed onto your retainer so you can do them however often you like. Personally, I'm doing those ventures now because new leathers/rocks are selling so well because of Dawntrail... But I can understand how it wouldn't be helpful for people doing quick ventures. 💜

@spriggzz7z 5 дней назад

Unfortunately the one reason I would use this is not available which is quick exploration ventures. Be nice to lvl my retainers easily when not at home.

@gamer_debbie 4 дня назад

Yeah, I understand. 💜 It will let you "complete" your quick venture and do any number of hunting ventures in the meantime... if you wanted to make any Gil while not at the computer, though.

@Slamfist00 12 дней назад

Can you use ventures to send quick exploration missions? Wouldn't ten nuts every hour get very expensive?

@gamer_debbie 12 дней назад

You *can* do it. Whether or not you *should* do it is another question. lol For people with 2-3 retainers, 10 nuts can go a long way towards keeping them venturing a long time. As for my 10 retainers, I'm usually hovering around 8-10 nuts at any given time so if I wanted to I could send them all out, but I definitely wouldn't want to sustain it by paying for mog coins! Thankfully, right now they're all leveling to 100 and are doing those 17 hours exploration missions (so finding the nuts to flip them isn't too bad).

@thedoomlord5853 12 дней назад

Why updates the game with quality of life futures when we can sell them

@gamer_debbie 12 дней назад

It's hard to fault them for making money on the side when everyone is doing it. And it's hard to complain about the game QOL updates when they *just* released an expansion. But I understand your point.

@raventhorX 12 дней назад

Thought communication in the app was separate from in game communication. Did they finally change that? Thats the thing i want the most. Back in the day world of warcraft had something like that in their version of a similar app. I coud litterally chat in guild chat when not logged in and see what everyone in game was discussing.

@gamer_debbie 12 дней назад

I do remember that for Warcraft! Fantastic for guild leaders and others who want to keep an ear open at all times to the community. There are FC / Community group chats in the app, but you're right - it's not real-time FC chat synced to the game as the other members all have to have been registered to the app for it to work at present. But it's not beyond the realm of possibility that they can change it in the future...

@benmorrow1701 11 дней назад

The Kupo nuts though…. WOW had a good companion app, at least when I used to play. No limits on maintenancing auctions.

@gamer_debbie 10 дней назад

I do remember the one for WoW. It would be nice to have something similar, but I imagine the reason why we don't has something to do with RMT or bots.

@JoeyJSawyers 11 дней назад

IMO, paying for the service to even use the app, to then be asked to pay per transaction for retainer stuff, it’s a no from me. I’m gonna sub for 1 month to get the stuff off my extra retainer and then not sign up for it again. :\

@gamer_debbie 11 дней назад

I understand your point of view. I find that the kupo nuts free from logging in usually take care of anything I really want to do, so there's no *need* to pay for transactions if you don't want to. I haven't made a purchase from the app in the years that I've had it.

Honestly hate additional paid featured and microtransactions in an MMO game that's subbased + base price + expansion ... That's kinda ridiculous.

@gamer_debbie 8 дней назад

Sub + base game + expansion + Addl purchases has been the MMO format for over 20 years now. It's hard to think of a large game that doesn't follow it. Now, buying the same reskinned FIFA game year after year for full price is absolutely ridiculous. 🙊

I also use a 1-time password, but it keeps me signed in nearly all the time unless I log out or there's an update to the app - so it doesn't make me use it too often. If it's making you use it frequently, there should be an option to keep you signed in on the device you're using.
