yep
I never even tried to go in
you could enter their houses?
from what I could see from videos, they don't actually make the interiors lala sized
yeah they're more femra sized
they have normal height ceilings and make tiny doors
So lala houses still need stool to fix ceilings
yep
a real lala sized house would just murder the 3rd person camera
you can do it with player housing and have fun clipping through 3 floors of objects
idk if its get it done before kefka easy but its on the easier side for ultimates
your biggest problem is once kum is out everyone srs is going to be doing it
I have cure 3, cure 3, cure 3, and cure 3
"lf kefka party never done an ult before"
well at least 790
so
how do i put this
im just going to share an anecdotal story
I joined a top desrust party and I was blind ..group was fine with me and we saw p1 enrage in like 40 min
yeah not happening unless I find a super super super super casual static that's gonna take an expansion to clear
a Friend of a Friend ™ couldn't really do fru because whenever they'd join they would get kicked
in PF
well makes sense
do you want to know why
Were they in 690 gear
their total parses combined across the entire lhw tier didn't make it to green
if tha tmakes sense

Takes time to form and even more time to get prog
holy fuck.
I am not that bad
okay I'm not that bad at least
Not yet atleast
I got 76 for m11
yea thats absolutely fine
the reason I bring it up at all is he is the only person in my exp (admittedly not much since dt baby) that has ever actually been gatekept
I'm at 785 and I mostly need:
- mnemonics for weapon, have solvent already
- one more piece of m10 gear
- whatever augments the ring
as in "the community practically refuses to let them even attempt the content" kinda gatekept
not "my resume not good enough for a static" type shit
yeah the people doing week 1 are sweaty
wait what class were they
warrior
oh dear
Like i have seen bad play but people dont gatekeep
grey tank
need to beef up my 9 and 10
idk if oyu did light heavyweight but
I didn't unfortunately
And that tank still gets into pf
I started this tier
does the phrase "chain lightning" mean anything to you
I can't say i've ever experience someone being gatekept beyond the usual static rejection thing
Single digit is 0/1 btw
Not even above 5
it's very normal for early ultimate pf
yeah probably week 4+ wouldn't be that bad
I'm hoping I can manage the one more clear of m11 I need for a 790 weapon this week
I tried a couple weeks ago but got horrendous mental and had to stop, and last week I was traveling and didn't feel like raiding on steam deck, but I think it's doable this week
at least once there's an actual guide out
even now in ultimate pf if you prog lie out your ass you probably get kicked
I'm ngl the "passport check!!!" stuff is kinda cringe in pf
Just dont suck /s
I remember there was someone here last week who was like
"did I earn this uwu weapon"
1 or 2 mechanics ppl usually let slide but
"I kinda got... piloted"

if you're on like phase 2 and join a phase 4 or 5 party yea ppl gonna kick you even today on an older ultimate
saying you'll put it in desc is cringe
they stopped replying once everyone was like "either clear it yourself or stop using the weapon, if you don't want people to comment"
yea its the same as like, "chill vibes only" "be confident" etc like all of that isn't already implied
lol initially we were like "oh dw maybe you didn't have logs or your parse sucks, a clear is a clear"
Ya usually if you're 1 phase behind but on enrage of that phase it's okay
I had someone join a m11 reclear party who did clear...
on an alt job.
and they messed up every mechanic
smile ive done that before
and then it turned out they bought a clear 
I remember joining a bunch of FRU parties that were P4 prog when I was on P3 enrage
host said it was fine
Play multiple role
I told them I can bait Darkest Dance without issue
For max availability

I was curious and checked a few people in limsa yesterday and like 50% didn't have ult logs
Legend weps dont mean much
You can have top wep but if you die 3 times to silly shit
I will side eye you
my bad
When the Sex Legend in full bis can't do naught hunts

Its hardest ex mech
Okay listen, chasers are hard man
I hate naught hunts cw-ccw but that's just me
this is gonna sound cope but
just because it's so easy to space out and go OH SHIT IT TURNED AROUND
there reaches a point you check out so insanely hard on normal content lol
expecting me, a trans person, to deal with chasers, is transphobic,
at the same time I think enuo is one of the easier ex's
just because it's super telegraphed
It is
Me on the verge of literally falling asleep in leveling roulette like
Super free
no random bitchass spreads like train
yea
I have yet to see enrage on enuo
OH BTW YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO SPREAD
or like alliance raid
expecting me, a gay person, to deal with mechanics, is super homophobic and I will be contacting the local authorities
And we memed the fuck out of it
also
Still killed it
adds phase is ridiculously lenient
Enuo has the benefit of being an off-patch extreme so the gear helps a lot. Apparently it hits like a truck at minimum item level.
yo I got my purple who wants me 
But its also super free
it's definitely savage
So its fine
trust me bro
I might join some parse parties next week if I have time
I remember some mechs of it
need to get my m9 and m10 to purple hopefully
if I can do m11 purple
I can do m10 purple
m10 parsing is mostly about understanding how to cleave
I don't really care about getting purples, I think my goal is just >50
see here's the issue
I'm a healer
which means I have to babysit everyone
"my team is why i'm hard stuck bronze"
also I still haven't gotten my timings down for blood lily
I think I have 65 in m9 and 64 in m10, my best logged m11 is 13 but I feel like every clear I have in that fight had Some Bullshit happening
every time it's snaking in m10
I always have a 50% feeling that cone is gonna go the wrong way
yea theres a lot of "close your eyes and pray" mechanics lmao
arena split is another, both m10 and 11
I was bard
you better have 100% uptime as bard bro
Should have done mch
I always end up holding my breath in m10 arena split because I'm just waiting to die to damage
all their shit is instant cast
And m11 split, I always glance at the party list waiting for someone to explode when damage goes out
and stampede
oh yeah it's reset tonight yay i get to play the game again
But as always the player with lowest uptime gets all loot
Age old adage
SURELY EVERYONE WILL BE COMPETENT
I fucked up stampede so bad a couple weeks ago and it's still haunting me (I went left instead of right with a tether)
We ended up getting a <1% enrage and I felt so fucking guilty
Main thing is boss better be below 13% when heartbreak starts or its gg
One more clear of m11 and i can say goodbye to it forever
It also bugged me that wtfdig only shows the final tether positions on the normal ecliptic graphic and not fixed ecliptic, when I also still want the fixed ecliptic 4-way bait spots, so I kitbashed them together for next time
idgi isnt that fixed
I loooooove puddle
Both fixed and standard have the same movement for tethers, but on wtfdig specifically, if you're showing the fixed images, it doesn't show the final tether positions, which stupidly is what got me bad enough last time to make that mistake
(I took the center of the left image (4way spots) and slapped it on the right image (tether positions))
I think this is what's happening in my brain and it causes just enough hesitation about where I should go to cause Problems (yes, I know which one is the correct one, but when my mental is frayed and I have to react under pressure, there's a high chance I do a stupid thing)
I did too, except we had to burn lb3 and got 0.39% enrage
I think a big part of it is that my mental in general got absolutely toasted a couple weeks ago and it led to me panicking in moments I had no reason to. If I'm able to just keep my head on straight it should be fine
I always say raiding is just as much a fight with yourself as the boss
Lord knows I've fucked up bad
Staring at a tank buster on top of me
everyone has those times where the fuck up a mech they normaly wouldn't
Usually if a TB is on me, it wasn't my fault, but it's more funny than anything at that point
nono it was during p5 topyesterday lmfao
major mech resolve into telegraphed tb and i just kinda
tood there
Pffff
they did LMFAO
i have 0 excuse obv but i think in that moment i was thinking, for whatever reason, we'd just stay on the side we resolved mech but like
even if that were the case move away from the tb

blame the tanks
i blamed phsy range yesterday for me being a chort and literally just seeing the arena wrong, that was bad too
gaslight gatekeep getkickedfromthestatic LMFAO
bro wtf
It's probably for the best that I'm not progging TOP 💀
nah deadass TOP is free (at this point)
the fight is free yet alas i am in debt..
i still have like 14 TOP totems i have no idea what to do with
even if i got a weapon for every job i think i have like 3 extra
I want a TOP clear bc everyone and their mother puts it as a requirement for joining statics
top is fun
i didnt even do it on patch i did it on expac though 
most fun fight in the game
I like it
6.5 ulti PF was a fun time
Some funny datamines
I just hate how I can't find a group that wants to stay together once we get to P5
ah yeah makes me wonder like since we get kum how long the time period between kum dying down and next expac there will actually be for the ulti pf to pop off
2 months maybe
i think ulti pfs actually been doing ok atm actually
depends on how hard it is
since everyones bored out of their fucking mind
dude i'd be so happy to not play ff for the next six months rn
minecraft is eating my life away
we're mid pull in top and i'm thinking about how to set up my next automation line
and prime sure footed in 5 days 
I’ll tell everyone I’m Chiyo shiomi when they passport check me and no one will be able to refute it
i haven't played this game much in the past few months and it feels nice
do i even enjoy this game?
you're not toxic enough to be me
where's the hatred
the vitriol
we cannot suffer it again
All directed at Bapple
IF THIS PARTY CANNOT BE MY CLEAR, THEN NAUGHT IN EXISTENCE HOLDS ANY MEANING
that's a little shitter mentality, don't you think?
OUR PARTY DISBANDS...
bro, why is installing ff11 its own boss fight with multi step phases
Bapple Trees
Gilgamesh >> never join my party again you griefing fuck
you gotta beat the enrage
you installed xiv
TIL the JP VA for meteion/endsinger also voices frieren and anya
why did you think ff11 would be different
xiv is way easier, imo
you gotta earn the right to play such a gem, if you cant beat playonline you dont deserve it
you either have no problems installing FF14 or all of them
like nowadays you just install the launcher for ff14
ff14 is like 1990s software so 11 gotta be some ww2 analog punch card shit
thats what im saying
flash back to me as a kid not knowing about different parts, only to find out after like a 30 hour download that my PC could not actually run FFXI
you're installing something from the stone ages
if you're playing ff11 you basically need a controller
it's like extracting the venom of a prehistoric bug inside of amber to make a pain killer
eeeeeeeeee disagree
i never used a controller in all my time on xi
i will never use a controller
we make do
then again I haven't even made it out of san doria yet on the xi private server because I have no fuckin clue what I'm doing 
everything in FF11 is harder than FF14
DO U JP ONRYSTAND?
I made a mnk and I'm getting my ass mauled by worms outside san doria because for some reason they can cast stone and that does 1/3 of my hp
i just think of bapple telling me about some bullshit that happened back then bc the devs are sadistic fucks

your character can't even 1v1 a random enemy in the overworld
you're not the WoL you're just some random NPC
whatever the opposite of mc syndrome is
npc syndrome
expendable side character syndrome
even the "guides" on the private server's site don't offer that much help in terms of getting started or getting my bearings
i do think that playing with kbm is suffering
but playing with just kb is fine
rookie mistake, gotta macro /check
you can easily beat the enemies just outside the gates
you can't even teleport to fast travel unless you have a WHM

bapple trees
thats bc bunnies r nice
i request your advice
sup
mr bapple trees
if i wanna make a char on xi do i need someone whos a higher level player to be with me
or am i fine solo
also whats the hottest race bc i dont wanna be ugly
its xi everyone is ugly cuz u have like
the free trial is getting bigger soon for 11 so
boy i have terrible news
i haven't partied up once and have gotten like 5 jobs to 99 and done three full expacs worth of story 
I don't think they have au ra in 11
4 customization options and thats it
GULP
yeah there are no hot races
I guess private server is good enough for a first run
so basically everyone is ugly
wallahi im finished
do private servers have trusts though
the character creator runs on a completely separate engine btw
bad news: no femra
good news: no malera
perfectly balanced...
and the character creator looks way better than the actual characters do
You will be chopped and you will like it
what the fuck is that
i'd just play retail tbh. there's a lot of qol there that private servers won't have
a mithra
i know what it is
its crazy ffxi is only 2 years older than wow
character creation vs ingame look btw
i am saying that bc she looks ugly as shit
but it looks like it stayed behind in 2002
your options are human, elf, lala, miqo'te, and roegadyn with a tail
they are all painstakingly rendered in the best possible PS1-era graphics
wasn't there some guy that admitted to jorking it to the mithra character creation cutscene on a youtube video
and yet I'd still crack everyone in 11 before anyone in WoW
wow is ugly af but at least it's modern ugly af
there are some ppl that do like mithras that much so

thats the neat part you dont
put a paper bag on
play a tarutaru so you get the urge to punt yourself after every cutscene
i'm ngl even though i played FF11, i felt zero hype about any of the alliance raids because everything in that game is ugly AF
Honestly the humes might be the best looking characters and that's. Shocking to someone like me
there's barely anything i feel nostalgia for
shocking to a furry
meanwhile gw2 is a much more recent game and like 70% play humans
I remember watching a clip of 11's ark angels after doing jeuno in 14 for the first time and I couldn't even tell if anything was happening
because everything else is... acquired taste
it was like 18 people standing still with things popping up in the chatbox
11 combat is nothing like 14 combat
okay
you had an input maybe once every 20s on xi
but the timing was extremely important
there's an evolved joke to be made here I think
it took me years to like sylvari, i thikn they are fine now
but i found them gross back then
yeah xiv is evolved xi eVolVed
the norn look cool
charr are furry bait, norn are just bigger humans
eXoIVed
asura would be ok if it wasnt for the creepy shark teeth
oh my heavens you werent kidding
is that a playable race
That's Charr and Amuro
yes
ew
amuro like the gundam pilot?
sitri is typing...
something is very wrong
euuagh
EW
ewwwww
GET IT OFF MY SCREEN
bro
that's so uncanny valley
asura > lalas
Charr is the best
Holy hell those things make the antitower dolls look cuddly
I learned the other day that you can’t be black in ff11
Which I found pretty funny
Gw2 is so fucking ugly man
They remind me of the US desperately trying to make cute things in the 80s and coming out with stuff like Trolls and Cabbage Patch Kids instead
they took my melanin bruh 💔 can't have shit in final fantasy
and Furby
also the charr players always wear the most ridiculous shit
furby unironically creeped me out as akid
Goku!!
XI combat is... weird
it's closer to old FF games?
where it's more about buffs/debuffs and using your abilities at The Right Time than rolling a gcd and sending things off cooldown
and there's no real positioning after a fight starts
ff11 is just old school mmo
😭 square are dickheads man
if im playing im choosing sylvari bruh
Ew man
im too young for those
Why does that game look like that
wuh
ew
I think furries should stop being appealed to thoughts
they all look like walking lightbulbs
to get certain bis items for your LS you had to:
- track the time of death of an overworld boss
- send someone out to the spawn point beginning 21 hours afterwards for 3 hours
- boss randomly spawns at each 30 min mark in that 3 hour window and you have to spam an attack to claim it before other people
- if you do, you have to kite the boss around and not die while 17 people spend 15 mins sneaking past enemies to get to you
- if you don't your LS still shows up in case the other LS dies
actual amount of gameplay: 0-1 hours
Brooo
completely unacceptable gameplay
all races (except humes) are tanned at least
can't be black but at least you're not forced to be #FFFFFF
Why does the game have a constant bloom effect on
trauma bonding
"Please schedule your life around me" design
ff11 is less action and more like grind/rpg from my understanding
They should make a version of ff11 where you can experience the game without playing it
@sleek moon can i have big tiddies in GW2 this is important please answer
Because the lore and story sounds so fucking good
ok this is the last one i can find
Fucking cloud of darkness just ||gobbled universes up ||
their clothing is very MMO
uhh they are decentlly sized
wait do people c tha about xi spoielrs the game is literally odler than you
spoilers
not on sylvari though, you'd have to go human female or norn
I do not
you know there's a website (multiple even) for those...
Cmere
you saw nothin
how long does it take to play ffxii story
12
not super long
i'm already past that luckily
but yea please mark spoilers past like, the base game probably?
I kinda wanna play it now because of the raid
maybe 20-40 hours if you are chill
I GUESS im playing as a human.
is there raiding like in ffxiv
oh yeah you can solo the story now with trusts

(they mean 11 but said 12)
i forgot about that
it took hours to even find a party to level your jobs sometimes
And the trust system (along with a fuckton of other early boosts, like RoV) makes it a lot easier to go solo
Kicked for playing DRG
loldrg
Isn’t that the meme
dawg it could sometimes take like 3-4 hours just to travel to the new levelling spot, and if you die otw? lol
yes loldrg was a meme
because being unplayable increases job identity
its cuz DRG's 2 hour ability was summoning their wyvern, if it died you were basically not a job
the story isn't super long, it's the handful of tedious quests that drag it out
after around 240 hours i've finished the base game, first three expacs, and am about halfway through the fourth
but i've gotten sidetracked a LOT. you can easily do it in half that time
they're one hour abilities now
fucking nerfs <//3
what kind of mmo is ffxi
basically things that are 2-7 minute cooldowns in FF14 were 2 hour cooldowns in FF11
hour long cooldown, they usually last about 1-5 minutes
LMAOO
old mmos are more of a job than actual employment
your raid night would literally end after a certain number of pulls due to EXP loss on death, so you had like 6 chances per night
only PLD had an invuln and it was on a 2 hour cooldown
Maybe I'll play ffxi after I finish clair obscur
I Miss when MMOs hated you for playing them
NIN's 2 hour ability was literally just to blow up and die
They're chock full of those anime MMO ideas that are like "wouldn't it be cool and immersive if we did this?" and there wasn't enough industry experience and competition for someone else to say "no you dumbass"
there are people playing XI private servers just to relive all this mess
wait, all current expansion for xi are only 10 dollars on steam rn
the only part of FF11 gameplay i liked was skillchains and magic bursts. certain combos of abilities/spells that did a bunch of extra damage

to put it into XIV terms it would be like if sch faerie could take dmg, and if it died you just couldn't use anything faerie related for 2 hours like dissipation etc
beastmaster has sort-of-skillchains right?
There r people nostalgic about all kind of games that are unplayably bad by modern standard tbf
in 14 i mean
Yes
Like the original tomb raiders
It does
that's fun
wait am I dumb
the one with tank controls?
XP loss on death before endgame is massively nerfed now, btw
even at lv99 you'll only lose like 1000 XP on death, if you release back to your home point
once you start getting master levels the punishment is back in full force, but nobody in this chat is gonna get to that point 
and the blue pyramid tits
Yea but the shooting is honestly worse
every mmo has private servers with very old versions
imagine the chaos if regular jobs in FF14 had skillchains. like someone else uses an ability and something flashes on your hotbar
For a game that wants a decent amount of combat it’s really fucking bad
give everyone a personal limit break and combining them for diff effects letsgo
Even Wildstar?
wildstar was ahead of its time
real talk, would I enjoy ffxi only storywise or is the game at least decent
i like it when an indie game has tank controls. its neat.
even my childhood kmmo does, and one of the biggest private server networks for that plans to release a server that will last 7 years+, going thru every version from 2003 to 2010
I've heard it mentioned positively a few times
gw2 again coming in with combo fields/finishers that nobody every pays attention to because people just press random buttons
Oh yea? Fucking watch this
by most modern metrics xi is a fucking dog shit game that completely disrespects your time and energy as a player
my impression is "it had everything you could want except existing"
I wish people in Gw2 pressed random buttons they’d do way better than they do
They press no buttons on god
oh....
mb im tryhing to deal negative dmg
running a parser in gw2 is actually depressing
i heard gw2's ultimates are like extreme level in xiv at best
you have like 30-40 people "attacking" a boss and doing like 2k dps while 6-7 people do 40k dps
this sounds awesome
i gotta get into this game
Who wants to play my ff12 modpack sometime though that’s the real shit
i've always been told gw2 raids are easy af
i'm having.... some. fun. in XI
but once im done with the story i'll probably unsub
So ff11 with all expansions is a relatively short story?
looking back at my gw2 character she's so fucking dead inside compared to my wol
but old ones are relevant forever since level cap never goes up from 80
gw2 also has no photo mode btw
that makes sense
gpose is highkey what keeps this game alive
gpose was only added to 14 because it was some dev's pet project that he worked off the clock
gw2 (when I still had my dogshit laptop) vs xiv
it's shorter than 14 for sure
still fairly long though. base game and first expac have short stories, everything after is pretty beefy
there's so much shit we have in 14 that only exists because some dev was bored and working on it on their free time
are both modded?
pretty crazy to think that its now the main way a significant number of people engage with the game
this game always had a budget issue lol
you can't even mod gw2
not a majority ofc but its wild
hmm
gw2 only has addons/plugins and that's it, no actual mods like xiv does
I didn't expect glasses to fit poorly on a human face, of all things
I can’t blame se for not investing too heavily into it after it already failed once at the start though
Are there any bosses that are like, in terms of savage/ultimate stuff?
your laptop will return.
yep, master trials
they're the baseline, if you can't fit anything to them, just give up
But the mid hw recruitment surge was def needed yeah
you're done as a modeler
Dogshit game then
GW is really hard to look at lmao
master trials are the equivalent of savage/ults basically, the latest one took ppl nearly 2 years to clear
How have they not done a graphical update yet lol
the first alliance raid (jeuno the first walk) was a reference to how once you hit level 20 or so you had to make a journey to jeuno, the central hub of the game. to get there on foot was like an hour long but the thing is there was monsters that would 1 or 2 shot you along the way, resetting you back to home town. depending on your luck (eg mob spawns) it could easily take liek 4 hours. it got to a point where player escorts were a p common thing eg pack of 10 level 20's pay some high level ppl say 50k gil each to walk them to jeuno
diff kinda game
I wanna face ff11 absolute virtue
Probably nerfed now
Wait what.. hair is that??? It’s amazing!
Modded
you're telling me level 20s in ff11 had 50k gil???
modded
Ah that makes sense 😭
i understand how this is probably offputting for a lot of folks but it sounds like my jam
have you ever played outward
easily

isn't the jeuno section of the first walk based on dynamis and the walk of echoes
if you ever see something that looks particularly good or high quality in ffxiv
if you want that kind of jank in single player/coop version
the answer is always it's modded
wait, is the ff11 map actually huge LOL
it's pretty big
is it not smaller zones with teleportion sections to the next
tbf you can tell cause none of the modded stuff fits the way the game looks
it is zone based like 14
fast travel was not rly a thing in xi no
but the zones are pretty big
iirc you had to actually wait hours on air ships
it probably is nowadays but
now they removed it
and yeah fast travel wasn't a thing for the longest time
but nowadays there's home points and survival guides everywhere
Imma take advantage of that steam sale and buy the game
xi very much asked you to live in their virtual world
it is one of the games of all time
id wait for the expanded free trial tbh
I should buy dead as disco
airships arrive like... every 15 minutes ish?
you can buy the game now and activate it later tbf
new trial gets you to 75
i have not played outward but adding it to the list based on this, ty!
my childhood kmmo has fast travel but ofc it costs money, the further you are from the intended destination the more it cost
and it also had this strat for humans
Is the free trial time based, or lasts until you buy the expansions
There's a lot more QoL in the game now, but it definitely still feels like a way older game than XIV
is that lineage
fuck im old
rn it is 14 days, but it will be up to lvl 75 later on with no time gating
you're so old
lineage 2
but you also only can do base expac stuff
lineage was the first time i heard a story abt someone dying over a video game
bapple I'm gonna be like you one day about 14 and that scares me
the wonders of downloading a single file at a time
WHMs had to use a scroll to learn spells that teleported their party to specific towns. you would sometimes need to shout in town offering gil for someone to teleport you
yeah ppl took lineage very seriously, both 1 and 2 ngl
you gonna tell people about how good we had it in ffxiv or how shit the fight design was
tbf mmorpg like ff11 are relic of another time
also to return to your home point you needed a BLM to cast Warp II on you
TLDR you had a chance to drop your equipped items in lineage (idk about 2) so if ppl camped you they could literally just steal all your shit and someone was really happy because they upgraded their weapon to a stupidly high degree and got camped until they lost it and they uhh Found Them ™ irl
nowadays mmorpgs are a dying genre
oh yeah that was a thing in VERY early versions
mostly cause there are so many more games/someone time is that much more valuable
well with how games are going nowadays maybe they won't improve enough that I can complain about 14
I think in either C4 or C5 they got rid of that?
lol
I hope the expanded trial is soon, the whole game down to 10 dollars from 30 is such a deal

and the private server I was playing on was on C5, I think they might be on interlude at this point
tbf just get it, and store it for later
Yoshi P probably slaps the devs everytime they make a hair with a filesize above 8MB
you guys remember when games ran reasonably well on sub-top tier hardware at launch
insert modbeast post
lets b real by the time you are my age you will still be on xiv because they aren't ever letting this game die
probably
the main strat was making a rogue class with the fake death skill, aggroing a bunch of mobs, using it next to someone and letting them die, dropping their stuff

even with FF14 being way more streamlined than FF11 i find myself not wanting to spend that much time in it. prefer games that i can just jump in and out of immediately
ffxiv is prob gonna last another good 5 to 10 years at this rate
bapple if I am still on xiv in like 15 years I will find the nearest suspension bridge and do a backflip
even PKing enough players made you drop your gear on death
You can rest in peace at that moment knowing the schizo with over 10 years of this shit ass game on you it’s ok
that one asian unc streamer exists
and some ppl got insanely op stuff off of that
would you yell at your kids if they caused a wipe in 2041
i forget wasnt it like, the more you pk the higher the drop rate was for both you and the ppl you killed
I think it was only for you, the PKer
now the question is
My ex fiancée told me that teaching our kids league at 6 years old wouldnt be good for them
"back in my day we played this game where we sat in town for an hour waiting for a party to fill and then we went in and died over and over to the same boss for 2 hours straight"
but yea a lot of old kmmo the friction wasnt from the content but from the pvp elements, i think aion leaned into that the most
if I download ff11, can I just close the window, and it at least keeps half the files downloaded thus far
yeah lineage and aion were really pvp focused above all else
well when you put it like that we sound insane even in the present day

hyper marathon games with huge pvp focus
is that why they are an ex
"so when you finally beat the boss you moved on and did other stuff right?"
"well...."
you could buy it and not activate it until later, but chances are there will be another sale by the time you get to 75 in the expanded trial
idk the answer to this but i wouldnt do that
its a very ancient piece of software
No highly personal reasons on her end plus my mental health meaning I couldn’t live in the states caused an amicable split (met her in LA)
"you see after we beat the boss we would kill it every week for a chance at loot. and then sometimes we would kill it more just because"
"because you found it fun?"
"well no"
We still friends tho
some things never change
now we just use PF instead of /shout
I was around wow for the discourse around them adding dungeon finder
"back in my days we had to go to north shroud to raid because you couldn't queue into savage"
wait until we have to explain parsing
we've all heard of the parse monkey but have you heard of a parse orangutan
what of the tales of the parse gorilla
tbf it wouldn't be TOO bad for dawntrail. raids are in s9
endwalker though
the parse gibbon
Furious Parse Rajang
parse primate
imagine having to move to Pandæmonium every single time you had to raid lmaooooo
teleport to anagnorisis > fly for 2 minutes to the gates of pandaemonium > walk all the way to the end
Wasn’t too bad back then, adding cross world queueing just meant they had to stop doing it
are those the ones with like a pouch in their throat to shout louder
dude late for raid rushing through elpis to get to panda
Time to Sub my Nautica till I 2
oh yeah that game came out huh
Early access
people who hate playing the game but love forced chatrooms would love it
I have no idea we just had to memorize the entire primate lineage in the anthropology elective I took
i see i thought you were making like a wk reference because they yell at people
Ye heard some good things about it
same people who like arbitrarily waiting 15 minutes just to travel between cities on a boat
i heard a few bad things about some forced pacifism stance they took compared to the first one / below zero
Babe wake up time to afk at the jeuno summoning stone
you cant kill anything even if it's harassing you nonstop
like I can now call toby a homo florensiensis because they were an island hominin species that was famously short as fuck
You get a hammer that stuns things I think

hammer and flares distract them for like 5-10s and they go back to attack you
oh yea
Good enuff
seems poorly thought out
I saw reddit blow up about that
Ya I assume they'll add a way to actually force them to leave you alone at some point
wouldn't be surprised if that ends up being the most downloaded mod lol
killable creatures
In 1 you had the heated knife
You had a little knife
But you could still knife fishes and wrestle the leviathan with the suit
like even in the original subnautica killing was mostly a pain in the ass and not worth it but if you were REALLY dedicated to solving a boneshark problem or something you could do it
Which was specifically to do more damage than the regular knife
I thought that was a pretty good way of handling it
its not even leviathans tbh its everything else
And shit like ur drill damaged creatures
it also cooked fish when you killed them with it
if you bonk anything enough times in the first game they leave you alone
What’s subnautica
which was the good part tbh
but here they never do
didn't have to bring it back to a fabricator to eat it
Subnautica is a drug for me bc i'm scared shitless of the ocean but I can't stop going back to it
It triggers my phobia so good
Does the game have not a suit yet?
yeah I love og subnautica
the whole eating fish thing is funny too, they want you to be a pacifist and not kill things, but you have to eat fish (alive apparently?)
It might do the same here tbh
That answered NOTHING mango 💢
It’s ok though, you merge with fish dna to get the capability to do that
Little survival game in the ocean
There's a story but idgaf about the story
survival game, if you havent played the first I would suggest to play that one instead since its feature complete
I just like the atmosphere
subnautica is underwater survival horror but the horror part is mostly unintentional
2nd is EA
the ocean is just scary as fuck
Nah
Oh I see
thats as far as you need to know
I spent three hours a day in a pool for about six years so I might be part fish now
Not a below zero recommender hate to see it (nobody is)
the rest is better to find out
So you’re like scavenging
yea
the planet you're on is like
not civilized
wild ocean planet
and you crashed on it
Subnautica is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean planet. A massive, open world full of wonder and peril awaits you!Dive Into a Vast Underwater World
You have crash-landed on an alien ocean world, and the only way to go is down. Subnautica's oceans range from sun drenched shallow coral reefs to treacherous deep-sea trenches, l…

Subnautica is an amazing drug
very fun and very scary
recommend playing with curtains closed lights off and a change of pants
Why is it scary
like jump scares?
ima link this just to see the usd price, i got hit with the canadian dollar curse https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/10076/Subnautica_Deep_Ocean_Bundle/
someone tell me the usd price lol
The second one is multiplayer which means I can trigger my phobia with the homies
this ain't the island sanctuary ocean
I can’t do jump scares in video games
my bf is still trying to get me to play it in VR
there's predators
$40
basically a death threat
that sale is pretty good then, all 3 for $40
Like I can play bioshock (thriller scary) but I literally uninstalled silent hill 2 15 minutes in
PLAY SUBNAUTICA
it's the kind of scary you get playing minecraft
well its not constant fear
but scarier because it's underwater
just you might find things in the dark and might have to run away
i am a wuss and terrified of the water but its a very cool kind of scary where its fear of the unknown
if you piss yourself in the ocean nobody will notice so it's okay
and the vehicles you get later on kinda reduce the fear factor
yeah most of it is (relatively) chill resource gathering and crafting and most of the shit that will attack you is pretty trivial and can either be smacked away or run away from easily
unless you have thalassophobia or whatever its called
i have that but i actually used subnautica as exposure therapy kinda 😭
once you get the final vehicles you're not immortal but it hardly feels like you're in much danger anymore imo
because realistically you're not
early and mid game is where it peaks
the scariest part about subnautica is exploring a zone for the first time and having no idea what to expect
but god is the game fucking beautiful at the same time
I still think ||the spot by the Aurora|| is the scariest place in the entire game
real
oh there is a mod
what if someone with thalassowasowoaspawoawphobia became a surfer and ened up becoming godlike because they didn't want to ever be underwater like that
i dont really get the whole thing people wanna kill the creatures
i just want more ways to fend them off
it's more about having options
cuz in og sometimes beating off a shark or something was less annoying than having it come back to eat your ass again later
and the flares were pretty useless
if there's actually better non lethal options I wouldn't care
yeah i just dont think specifically everything needs to be killable but thats a lot of what people are shouting for
there just aren't really any
i feel like the second i got to one of those dark voids going into the deep sea i'd just turn around and never come back
ok my tip for this game is to never use the in-game data sync
because it just
doesn't work
i think its more fun if they add other ways to fight them off
like make some fishes scared of the lights so you flick them off and on to make them turn or some shit
id be fine with other ways to get rid of them that isnt killing, but that should have been available from EA release if they were going down this route
agreed
i always wonder if the whole, "punch a shark in the nose" thing works irl but I'd never want to be in a position to find out yfm
do the "get rotated idiot"
I enjoyed the shit out of sub1 and am looking forward to buying sub2 once it is out of early access
in like 3 years
honestly you generate like very little force in a punch underwater anyway
whichever dev worked on this should be fired from SE
idk that it would do much maybe sharks just have sensitive noses
once again plugin devs ar ethe only people who work on ff14 who know how to code
i feel like actually being in the dark doesn't creep me out as much as seeing the void and having to decide to go into it
wat hapen
the most scared I got in subnautica was getting jumped by a warper for the first time tbh
if you want to upload hotbars and configs wouldnt doing it from character select be better
it was probably ai
twice now I have reopened the game after using this feature and had my keybinds completely reset
you can copy from one char to another
happened to two of us in static too
im gonna catch you
I just copy my character config files I don’t trust the features they give
yup
am I going in a tank or on the grill
a tank
Btw how many fates would it take to level 🧐
six se
67
this is going to sound really lame but swimming down into the deep ocean to unlock shisui of the violet tides creeped me out
i do have pretty bad thalassophobia
SIX SEVENNNNNNNNNNN
nah me too lol
our dna remembers the hellscape that was early life in the ocean
its why i struggle with games like subnautica
im terrified of the deep ocean
I think if you're not scared of the ocean to some degree you're just built incorrectly
ok but what game do you not struggle with
wow ok that was mean of me mb
wow
cuz fear of shit that had a high chance of killing you is like
you're an ASSHOLE
wow rude
supposed to be a feature
im telling the mods.
i wonder if I'm thalassophobic
bro just fucking toasted me what the helly
dont make it sound like a hate crime
im cisphobic 
call me normie like it's a slur
no way
if I discriminate against everyone am I really still discriminating
it's just equal opportunity hate
said the white mage
its true equailty at its finest

no seriously for some reason i get unnerved by the deep sea in video games lol
like i was actually kinda bugging out when I had to unlock the shisui of the violet tides lol
based based based
I like that WHM barriers don't overwrite anything
you're thinking two steps behind
if I play white mage the pf monkeys can't
you can at least pick up for their slack instead of being actively sabotaged
if i started maining white mage would you guys hate me /j
I love that sticker
it's probably a phobia for me because it gives me this really unsettling feeling that i don't get from other types of fear
god bless jp twitter
its great i use it often
water + darkness + muffled sound underwater + fear of the unknown + water pressure or something idk....
no
what doesn't kill you makes you soil your pants
i'm tempted but my pooter is poop
I think that's how the saying goes
wait
white people in the chat do you yall think eating seaweed is weird
i was just made aware apparently some find it really weird to eat seaweed
I've never had it before
like raw or as part of a dish
what's weird about seaweed
i feel like most people have had roasted seaweed by now at least
is it any weirder than eating any other veggie
Reason: dont use schizo in an degratory manner
?
!mute 270811610795343885 6h
See weed? I'd rather eat it
No not really? I never had fresh one iirc? Only the dried one
i have never gotten to try seaweed with other stuff
breaking news: local schizophrenic man muted for calling himself a schizo
heartbreaking
I'd imagine it probably tastes salty/fishy
i could see some people not liking the texture of regular (non-dried) seaweed
not really fishy
some of it can be slimy
i wanna try the bull kelp pickles
im confused too like ???
idk why it'd be particularly weird either way though
it's just a plant
we eat plants all the time
that's an insult to seaweed
no that's a hyur
