that's too far

tepid briar
#

watashia isn't shitting on the va's

#

... right?

worn bluff
#

it's hard to compare because watashia isn't a streamer

#

imagine if watashia had the reach and fanbase of xeno

torn mesa
#

Watashia is banned from every major FFXIV related Discord for a reason

tepid briar
#

okay I was out of the loop

torn mesa
#

and yes, Watashia does not make a living playing FFXIV, as far as we know

tepid briar
#

I didn't think they were that bad

clear plume
#

I was chatting with my static about watashia and people are like “why do people join his parties if people think he’s shit” and I had to explain the difference between being shit and being bad, he’s shit, but he’s not bad at the game

torn mesa
#

they're bad enough that several of their alts are banned

tepid briar
#

and I was like "these people are pretty good at the game"

#

and then the vc conversation randomly turned into wuk lamat...

clear plume
#

He has awful ways of looking at the game and is a complete asshole in communities and harass them if they remove him from it

#

But like, he is better than the average pfer by a mile

random needle
#

Watashia and Xeno are different flavors of deranged, Watashia is at least funnier to watch make an ass of himself though

Xeno is just... unpleasant in all levels

dear square enix please give me a media pass

  • I don't cause shit and I also omnicraft
  • I cosplay so I look kinda cute sometimes

Would probably be respected for his gaming if he wasn’t shield healer specifically

But ultimately watashia wants attention, not to be respected

tepid briar
#

it was kinda funny to listen to

#

Does he know yoship is on board of directors

stray forge
#

I’ll push ur agenda

clear plume
#

He is upper management he only reports to the president

tepid briar
#

and how wuk's va and the story lead were somehow super toxic that's why they were fired (did they even leave???)

craggy marsh

#

And the president at the time was too busy making crypto slop to dei hire their ffxiv voice actors

#

I know it's not gonna happen, but gosh I wish Lamaty'i ends up having a starring role in Evercold so the people being complete babies about it can make further asses of themselves

yeah not a story lead, lead localizer and lore consultant

I said story lead bc that’s who they obviously meant

But that is what twitter is for isnt it

honestly

#

it doesn't help that her arc kinda sucked ass too

amber fable
#

To be dumb and stupid

tepid briar
#

they had her power up in a Power of Friends fight with bakool ja ja

#

like what the fuck man

#

the patches have been a lot better, so hopefully the VA direction is back to normal for 8.0

amber fable
#

Shounen protag

tepid briar
#

you could've chosen any other way to have her power up lol

#

would've been nice if she learned some eorzean combat techniques or something

amber fable
#

Whole rite was dragged out

tepid briar
#

if it's longer they should've just made the whole of main DT tulliyolal

amber fable
#

The end result of rite could have been done much shorter

tepid briar
#

and post-DT should've been S9 onwards

mighty agate
#

She fights multiple times during the story and you can see her get progressively more powerful, I don't think her progress was mishandled that bad

I think wuk lamat was ok va wise, and it’s really se mo to work with smaller but known VAs before large ones with ffxiv (and ff in its entire history honestly, even Ben starr isn’t exactly an A lister for a multi hundred million dollar game even) so that conspiracy was always dumb to me, the character was just bad though but they obviously just wanted her to be ditzy like that

#

Back in the day they used to intentionally use stage actors for their VAs to save money and looked for people who’s natural voice just matched what they wanted

tepid briar
#

should've done memory wiped sphene or some shit

#

double sphenes took up so much of the story

whole estuary
#

Many (naturally) believe the name “Cait Sith” to be a reference to the corresponding Celtic folklore creature “Cait Sidhe.” This is typically pronounced like “Ket-Shee,” -

#

but in FF7R they pronounce it like that video

tepid briar
#

you spend like three, four levels of quests building up endless sphene before dumping her

loud venture
#

yeah but the fight is rad

clear plume
#

Most of like, ff10-13 era voice actors who are known said they specifically applied bc they wanted to work on ff and werent even approached

the extra sphene with calyx was pretty unnecessary

resurrecting her was really out of left field and unnecessary

tepid briar

calyx's arc was way too long

worn bluff
#

basically 7.0 through 7.3 should have been condensed into 7.0, IMO

mighty agate
#

But I like the "oh the govt lied" aspect of it. It's not that much of an asspull and introduces some measure of nuance

Zoraal ja was a bum

tepid briar

and then had to shuffle something together

I liked it when Krile hugged her aunt

i think the one bit in all of DT i don't like at all, in hindsight, is koana. that guy could've not been there.

Or maybe..its fine he died like a bumass he was

then he just went poof

craggy marsh

That’s actually normal, they also changed shb post patch a lot they said in response to people enjoying crystal exarch so much and wanting graha as a scion

mighty agate
# tepid briar calyx's arc was way too long

Calyx's whole thing was my favourite part of DT lmao. Exploring the idea of a society newly introduced to the idea of death. I couldn't stop fantasizing about that setup in the hands of an aldous huxley or consort

lost sinew
#

if anything it felt like we got very little calyx, two patches no?

clear plume
#

They don’t finalize that before community reception is seen

amber fable

Calyx was post dt mainly

Solely, airc

#

Been a year since I did DT...

whole estuary
#

Calyx has committed the sin of not dying when killed

tepid briar
#

dt voice acting was just super mid in general I agree

craggy marsh
#

Yeah I hope 8.0 onward they use the normal studio again

tepid briar

on the other hand the cutscene people have been doing great

bc the one for DT was kinda ass

keep them

#

more like "endless"ly annoying am i right folks

mighty agate
tepid briar
worn bluff
#

having the capstone of the entire story be with endless sphene wasn't really satisfying. the design of original sphene is a lot better in general, so it seems like a waste to leave her for post-DT only (and we don't know how much we'll see of her in EC)

I haven’t played 9 and I figured he was on the way

oh I see they used a US studio

its a p good bit that 14 has a better implementation of necron than 9

Necron existence was just for fanservice just like enuo

all things considered

Enuo exists so we can get the ultimate raid in the future with every ff super boss back to back

necron in 9 may as well be what happened with enuo or doomtrain in 14, "look! it's this guy all of a sudden!"

i would never argue with this but i think for 14 i'm ok with us getting these kinds of fights every once in a while. just a "hey! adventure i guess!" kind of a thing

Wtf apparently I don’t remember Bozja at all

Doomtrain is the most egregious "AND THEN THIS HAPPENS" of them all though

yeah sphene's voice actor sounded very English like the Scions

Base ff5 talked about enuo as some god who could control the void, exdeath was trying to get a fraction of his power.

GBA releases, you go to an underground cavern added post game, there is no story to it, you fight him at the end of it as he yaps mid cutscene, you get nothing about how he’s alive or what he’s up to.

because if people get another dawntrail they might actually dip

They should hire me

It wont be yawntrail

but hopefully it's better since they stalled using dawntrail to come up with a good story

I’m told I sound like kronii

#

Play the game with the jp voices people, problems fixed !

tepid briar
#

dawntrail was meh because they were evidently only putting half effort

tepid briar
#

stalling for time while they got the next arc planned out

tepid briar
#

they had to cram everything into the msq and shaaloani was barely there

amber fable
#

Rite and shalooni should have been done by 95

tepid briar
#

it's the type of thing where imo if they had another few months to sit down and polish it, the story would have been much better

amber fable
#

But s9 wasnt that big for 5 level range quests either

tepid briar
#

trimming the fat, adding more detail where it's needed

boreal pumice
#

You could cut so much of it as long as you ended in heritage foundation at the end

jade nimbus
#

Rite was fine, just a slow starter. Shaoolani felt very filler

amber fable
#

Rite was padded out

tepid briar
#

to me it felt like they developed s9 and tulli independently

#

and tried to hastily put shaaloani as the transition

amber fable
#

It felt pretty filler overall

lost sinew
#

i think its a swing and a miss situation, not a lack-of-effort one myself

jade nimbus
#

They clearly wanted us to give downtime before throwing alexandria at us, but it feels very slow that's all

amber fable
#

I also feel that gulool jaja didnt had to die to make wuk emotionally more mature

tepid briar
#

yeah maybe I misunderstood

#

to me it just felt like they were preoccupied

mighty agate
#

In the middle of this all I think we should all have a moment to think on the fact that we're playing an MMO that has enough of a story that its quality can even be a matter of debate instead of a flat "what story", and that's already a win

tepid briar
#

yeah lmfao

#

like for most games this would be called a decent story

#

we're just so spoiled

amber fable
#

I mean

#

Thats not a good reason to say its fine

mighty agate
#

I've made my peace with them never reaching shb highs again

amber fable
#

Se pride itself for msq

#

I expect better

tepid briar
#

yeah I know, but I'm thankful that we have a msq in the first place

#

I hope they don't fumble evercold

mighty agate
#

I think they know they can't lmao

jade nimbus
#

Overall DT is fine, altough it has more lows than highs in the base expac

mighty agate
#

The game felt on the verge of collapse because they dropped the ball a little bit

tepid briar
#

from the fanfest presentation they seemed to have everything locked down already

#

in terms of plot, content, etc.

jade nimbus
#

But ye, of course I feel they need to do better given msq is their selling point

mighty agate
#

EC has to be a hit

I also really like the zones lol

because i could not stand the desert

You gotta lift heavy to make deserts interesting

#

I dont think any biome would make zones not boring af

valid solar
#

which is different from a desert

jade nimbus
#

The fun part is you skipped the part where it was not a desert

whole estuary
#

FF14's desert environments always have the best storytelling pieces, because the focus is more on the architecture

That's not for everyone, but it's certainly a joke to complain about it

does that bridge even exist other than as a reason to keep us from going across

whole estuary
#

Greg died on the way back to his home dimension

clear plume
#

And 61-63 was still mostly Doma and hingashi

#

Like the actual msq of stormblood always was so skewed away from the resistance bc the resistance story was lyse growth, not the land itself

tepid briar

I needed to be with my catboi quicker

You get to Hingashi at Lv61, I think you hit the Doman mainland around 63 or 64 at worst, and you don't leave until midway through Lv67

depends on the job but most are using caramel popcorn

Some might use sps food instead

The Balance will have BiS sets or you can use xivgear to check which food options performs better.

Current food is the ilvl 770 HQ foods.

ok. thankyou so much. i just cameback from a year a go

tepid briar

well depends on the class

oh most use popcorn

deep gale

Popcorn (det/crt) is probably the most commonly used food but if you're investing into sps or sks the crt / sps/sks food may outperform it.

tepid briar

some of those pages seem outdated though...

the whm one is still il740

right now for whm I'm using potage

if you're really picky about bis you can put stuff into https://xivgear.app/ and have it choose food / melds

Bc of how frames align

deep gale
#

bis adjusted for rising pc costs

clear plume
#

So if you’re on lower than that you need to either use a plug-in for fake frames for alignment, or a faster sks

#

(And this implies you’re ok locking to 60 fps above that, as some like 80 fps also misalign from the frames you want)

deep gale
#

incredible

What's the acceptable numbers like 60/90/120

fps?

Idk off top of head, I just use 180 when I don’t have plugins

bro has jarvis as a gaming pc sheesh

What is that supposed to mean

clear plume

But it isn’t normally that tight that a single should effect it

I think 91 is better than 90, but obviously that isn’t a lock you can just set in game so

#

Frame alignment plugins are something I heavily recommend though, great tools to avoid microstutters in your gcd

(For those who don’t know and may be confused, you can only take an action on a new frame, even if it’s queued beforehand, the server doesn’t handle it)

"I was not aware ToS applied to outside of game" bro when the ToS is "don't be a shithead"

It’s not his first suspension for outside of game shit so

acting like SurprisedPika

he thought the xiv devs were CUSHYYYYY with him

ppl feigning ignorance to spin a narrative

#

#

In stormblood he got a 1 week for posting somebodies twitter in his chat and telling them to attack him, and arthars obviously got the ban back in the day for making fun of somebodies dps on stream

tepid briar
#

now I have to find the clip where he got banned

worn bluff
#

his entire career and income hinges on him acting the way he does. he's not going to back down from it, his only path is to spin the ban as unjustified

#

either that or he goes to stream wow where they welcome him with open arms

tepid briar
#

can we fundraise to get him to leave

rapid whale
#

im of the belief streamers like this dont mean like, at least 50% of the shit that comes out of their moouth

tepid briar

but once you do it enough it kinda becomes you

ur not wrong

even if the Real Human ™ means something else at a certain point to the public thats what you are

a lot of people i know say something along the lines of, "having a kid made me want to be a better person, to be a good example for my kid"

so they stop drinking etc

clear plume
#

You also just run out of a lot of time for shit that’s unhealthy tbqh

#

When I was caring for a kid I had a lot less time and you had to choose

But I have full confidence he cut back on his gym and steroids when he had a kid and that helped him stabilize

so they frame it as "i'm just chill/don't want drama" but over time on a larger scale these platforms become filled with people who don't really get feedback about their opinions

Maybe I'll make a list of things to do before 8.0 and maybe that'll motivate me

#

I just want to make myself play some video games lol

vestal hollow
#

what i will also say as someone who was into discourse and drama like that

#

is that it's an addictive high

#

and a slippery slope

#

no matter how good your intentions are being all consumed by drama will eat you alive

loud nymph
#

especially for people who are sorta disconnected from reality because then you get to feel like you're part of a thing that's happening

#

you're not just watching people act like shitheads on the internet, you're part of a community pointing and laughing at people acting like shitheads on the internet

vestal hollow

not disconnected from reality so much as in a bubble

yes very much so

I know we're talking about xenos but like besides him getting banned did anything actually happen?

he was also tempting fate by playing with a shitton of mods on stream

The trick for arms is to check the arm that's transforming after you're in the safe spot, and that'll be the second arm to go off, right?

dusk sky

I need 12 pages or weapon coffers for 8.0 jobs but that can wait for 7.58

Pretty much, yeah. It’s the visual noise especially on knockback arms + the explosions on stack side that’s a killer

There is NO reason to EVER turn it off in the middle of a pull, unless you realize one melee is a dipshit and the other will do better

Also the music there sucks

when i started phaenna it actually got fun after a while

Oizys is straight cheeks

visual geyser

i mean i can literally buy all the rewards from cosmic

i think what makes oizy extra ass is the no flying when you got thoese stupid drones making you go in stupid places all over the map

and then i have no reason to do the planets lol

maybe I should do cosmic to level instead fo what I have been doing to level crafters

Subnautica 2 is awesome

why is it that when my party fucks something it's always me that dies wtf

no tank in lp stack? i die. my partner dies right before i actually need them? i die. one person dead during party stack? i die

hits blunt

#

anyway the ex was boring as fuck

loud swift
daring pine
loud swift
#

the intermission was so boring

#

dps only mechanic is a gaze they can easily counter by just hitting the main enemy instead of their add

#

tank can kill before tank buster and healers only need to esuna

daring pine
#

but kbitty we must give the dps something to do in order to rub their braincells together

#

i can probably kill before gaze i'm just lazy

#

and it's an intermission so nobody cares

loud swift
#

the only difficulty in the fight is if u play healer

#

lol

daring pine
#

ex5 repeated

loud swift

and even then

use eyes

but i actually liked ex5

so idk

oh

glad i got my wings early

necron intermission at least made you do something

idk i just wasted my 1min

died instantly

oh wait

that phase

i was thinking of the solo adds phase

daring pine

thats what i was thinking of actually

loud swift

ohhh

daring pine
#

not the other thing

#

the other thing was honk shoo

mimimimimi

solo adds was funny because you'd finish it in like two seconds then stare at your healers on the party list

loud swift

i think the only exes i really liked was ex4&6

daring pine
#

i only did ex4 like

#

idk twice

#

but i thought it was okay

loud swift

zelenia yes ppl suck at but the mechanics r pretty neat

ex6 was tolerable enough that i got over 100 totems in it

i server ticked one of the mechanics (no i dont remember which one) when i was in the wrong spot and my static were like "wtf how did you do that"

loud swift

ive been doing that in m11s

it's like that phenomenon where things will just pass through other things if the atoms line up perfectly
