OnlyFans RMT inside XIV

I dread the coming invasion of the degenerates

[somber storm]

Baldung

[shrewd grove]

[tiny wind]

yes

[somber storm]

Only exclusive to Valve's upcoming brain tech headset

[obsidian pagoda]

Well we already lost the belt, next we'll lose the Pants

[gusty quest]

They call it: The Sexset

[somber storm]

Female characters already lost the pants

[gaunt star]

A prophet among us.

[somber storm]

They'll lose the skirts

[obsidian pagoda]

inject that straight into my brain

[gusty quest]

We walk around with our pants having fallen down

[somber storm]

Pants down because we are always ready to go down

[gusty quest]

The scions next quest will be to find where all the belts went

[somber storm]

Yshtola's belts

[balmy mesa]

tldr: Nomura took them all

[gaunt star]

Queue Fandaniel's entrance.

[dim sigil]

Norumas into plaid now

[gusty quest]

Fandaniel enters holding all the belts

https://tenor.com/view/troll-troll-face-ragememe-rageface-trolling-gif-4929853

[somber storm]

Collars gone when?

[obsidian pagoda]

Turns out Fandaniel is wearing no pants under his new robe

[dim sigil]

Did they tell us what we get for turning the belts in

[gusty quest]

"Looking for these"

[balmy mesa]

this is more likely

[gusty quest]

This is Valens in a nutshell

[somber storm]

Valens and his kinks

[gaunt star]

Seasonal prisms.

[gusty quest]

He's like Edna Mode except it's all about belts

[dim sigil]

A what

[gusty quest]

"NO BELTS!"

[unique verge]

I'm just going to desynth all of my belts the day before 6.0

before they have a chance to give something worse

[balmy mesa]

ye, I have no idea what they're gonna do

[gaunt star]

A special code to use on Mog Station that allows you to purchase a hidden item.

[balmy mesa]

with the calamity salvager

[dim sigil]

Im predicting those last five slots are going to the same space as egi glams

[shrewd grove]

[dim sigil]

Meaning the void

[unique verge]

Nah

its to expand the job crystal section when the time comes

[shrewd grove]

nah it'll be 5 new key item slots

[wary perch]

Key items slots are useless

[shrewd grove]

exactly

[dim sigil]

Would be nice to trade those

[obsidian pagoda]

Any of my Aussie friends can preorder FanFest merch from AitaiKuji: https://aitaikuji.com/series/final-fantasy

[balmy mesa]

I want those damn room diffusers

but it'd probably be troublesome to import here

[obsidian pagoda]

Sadly those ones you can only ship separately, even from the JP store

I presume Audrey just didn't wanna bother with doing a separate thing for it

[somber storm]

Speaking of shipping stuff from JP to Australia

[balmy mesa]

ahh, you had to remind me of the nightmare of shipping my copies of EE over here

[proper zealot]

I was fine with the Belt removal until I remembered that Speed Belt is a thing

[dim sigil]

Its gonna be gone poof

[obsidian pagoda]

Convert it to Speed Earring

[balmy mesa]

speed eating? 🤔

[dim sigil]

I am speed

[somber storm]

Speed ring

[hexed stirrup]

Glad i havent put any materia on belts yet

[gaunt star]

Ahem.

TP system, fatigue system, and AP points.

And dying from mobs makes you lose EXP by a certain %.

Please look forward to it.

[vagrant sinew]

back to GW2 then I guess

[gaunt star]

^

[vagrant sinew]

they always introduce new materias every expansion

[silver lintel]

steam ver ff4 worth playing?

[vagrant sinew]

you mean ffxiv?

[untold gull]

no

[trail steppe]

what is this "stat squish" i keep hearing about?

[untold gull]

it's just a numbers thing, really

[fallen girder]

you gain less stats from levelup from lv 51-80 than you used to

[vagrant sinew]

yeah

[untold gull]

everything's just scaling down, not just you

[fallen girder]

at lv 80 its about a 80% dmg loss

[vagrant sinew]

also steam ffxiv is fine, you will just be limited to buying expansions from steam.

[fallen girder]

normal stat gain from levelup apply from lv 81-90

[untold gull]

i still don't get the damage loss. it's not really a damage loss if it's gonna be at the same percentage if the enemy is getting scaled down like you

[trail steppe]

won't that make 71-80 content harded?

[craggy gale]

i'll remember you, 6 digit setsugekkas

[fallen girder]

it's purely for technical reasons

so numbers don;t overflow

[vagrant sinew]

I mean you'll prob get those 6 digit crits at lvl 90 again

[untold gull]

no, it doesn't make content harder

[gaunt star]

Yes, and no more jumping.

[trail steppe]

good

[fallen girder]

it does make unsynced content harder

[untold gull]

unsynced maybe

[vagrant sinew]

some people believe that it will make unsynced content a bit harder

but we have like

7 months minimum

before 6.0

[fallen girder]

you'll prolly have less dps at lv 90 than at 80 now

[untold gull]

well, aren't you still gonna be able to solo it at 90?

just like you do now with 80

[fallen girder]

so hw ex trials might be difficult to solo

[trail steppe]

god I hope so lol

[vagrant sinew]

I mean

[fallen girder]

but we'll see

[untold gull]

i don't see much of a problem. especially since they're keeping 80-90 the same as it is now. it's just 51-80 that's changing

[obsidian pagoda]

The old content will probably break for a patch or so, but with WoW as a guide for multiple squishes so far, they seem to fix them eventually

[vagrant sinew]

pld is still the only one that can still solo them all

[fallen girder]

war can too right

[vagrant sinew]

yeah war too iirc

but pld is the main solo job

[gaunt star]

This is what I expect, honestly.

I can't see them not nerfing some things to adjust for the stat squish.

I mean if they don't, they're wanting people to run them with more people or something but that probably won't happen.

[hasty totem]

As stated in #archived-lore-spoilers

After browsing back and looking at it again, I've pretty much finalised the unofficial interpretation of Endwalker in Japanese

New Expansion Name: Endwalker
Japanese name: 暁月の終焉(フィナーレ)
Romaji: Gyougetsu no Shuuen (Finale)
Subtitle Intepretation: The Lunar Dawn of Finale
You'll have to convert them into French or German yourself. Not a speaker of those languages.

[balmy mesa]

stat squish is 1% per level

[fallen girder]

do you happen to have the german title?

[gaunt star]

Stat squish is just them getting rid of crit.

[balmy mesa]

unsynced parties would have an issue, but would be fine for synced

[gaunt star]

But tbh, it probably won't be that big of a deal for a stat squish.

[balmy mesa]

it won't be, just means you can't really solo extreme trials

unless you're really good

[vagrant sinew]

I meaaaaan

[gaunt star]

If they don't adjust damage output for older content then I'll be like "whoa" but otherwise.

[vagrant sinew]

you'll prob still be able to solo ARR extremes

HW extremes obviously only PLD or WAR

and some SB extremes only PLD

but we'll have to see how unsync is actually affected

[gaunt star]

Glad to be a PLD main.

[empty moss]

Sage reminded me of this https://youtu.be/PK6UaPnRYcc?t=46

[gaunt star]

But yeah, you're probably right.

We'll just have to see what they pull off.

Besides our belts.

[balmy mesa]

I wonder if we'll revisit the namazu's BT questline...

[vagrant sinew]

doubt it

[balmy mesa]

since they had a calamity in their future, of a sort

yes yes

[fallen girder]

that got averted in the questline didnt it

||like each rankup quest shows a calamity being stopped||

[balmy mesa]

it did... but what would happen if you didn't do the questline?

[vagrant sinew]

well I mean

they'd die out

[fallen girder]

then you can never do the namazu tribe ever again

[thick tinsel]

777 years down the line, there would be no more namazu to eat

[vagrant sinew]

wasn't it only 7 years?

until the calamities started

[prisma vine]

time bubble

[vagrant sinew]

wait I can't tell who's narrating the trailer

[thick tinsel]

idk there were a lot of 7s anyway

[vagrant sinew]

is it fandaniel?

[balmy mesa]

it's a bit (cat)fishy

[prisma vine]

if you didn't do them, time bubble keeps it Right There until you DO do them. like with cul and still seeing nanamo

isn't it emet narrating?

[vagrant sinew]

if it is he sounds so different

[thick tinsel]

recording from home

[narrow heron]

Retirement version Emet narration

[balmy mesa]

I bet this is why they decided to switch to role quests

[vagrant sinew]

oldmet selch

[thick tinsel]

everyone sounds different on zoom

[balmy mesa]

it got a bit too spaghetti-ish when keeping track of who did what

[fallen girder]

they did role quests cuz they couldn't be bothered making quests for every single class anymore

[vagrant sinew]

I mean that's understandable honestly

[fallen girder]

it is

[narrow heron]

Did like the PLD ending for this expac

[vagrant sinew]

better to do 5 questlines than do like 18 different ones lmao

[narrow heron]

Looking like a badass. Standing there menacingly

[vagrant sinew]

now my biggest question is

[rough kestrel]

I honestly never cared for most class stories anyway

[vagrant sinew]

what will the lvl 90 DRK quest be like

[rough kestrel]

I'm much happier with 5 meaningful storylines

[narrow heron]

We find the DRK side of the moon.

And fight it

[fallen girder]

will there even be lv 90 class quests?

[vagrant sinew]

I mean I don't see why there wouldn't be

[rough kestrel]

Though I will never not be mad they locked void story behind all of the role quests

[fallen girder]

i felt like the lv 80s were rounding up the stories

[vagrant sinew]

that's true

[rough kestrel]

I'm sorry but I dont need to fucking play healer to do cool Unalkalhai shit

[obsidian pagoda]

Are we finally going to be a man?

[fallen girder]

so unless you tell thjem about your new adventures again again

[narrow heron]

@obsidian pagoda Someone did a comparison of that song to all the expacs. Dark side was Shadowbringers, and EW is just the "MOOOON" part.

So, yes.

[somber storm]

Imagine the Kojin spell being our macguffin to breathe on the moon

[narrow heron]

Just like the trailer teaser. Both songs are too dang short!

[obsidian pagoda]

I said before that the Lunar Whale is gonna blow his breath onto the moon and create an atmosphere

[balmy mesa]

what bugs me about the role quests at 80 is that it doesn't give you a heads-up that "hey, you've got this void questline to do"

[lean adder]

I find that okay

[untold gull]

it's like a hidden optional

[narrow heron]

I mean if Elidibus and Ardbert could hold a chat on the moon, so can we!

[somber storm]

Lunar Bismarck

[balmy mesa]

I've completed all the role quests, but... ahhhh, I forget things, it'dd be nice to have that highlighted in the journal

[untold gull]

it's not bad, ye

[obsidian pagoda]

Yea but those are like dead people

[balmy mesa]

moon's haunted

[lean adder]

Anyone else find the meteor symbol on the moon a bit concerning?

[gaunt star]

The moon is going to fall.

[obsidian pagoda]

I think that's more of a crater... Zodiark has escaped

[gaunt star]

[scenic sun]

Moon's Haunted you say?

[somber storm]

Zodiark has been renovating

[narrow heron]

We got rid of one moon

What's another

[gaunt star]

But this is the moon.

[lean adder]

Also what is the moon named? Zodiark? Akin to the way the planet is named hydelin

[balmy mesa]

but once when we delete the moon, the planet has no tides

[narrow heron]

Fishers will adapt

[obsidian pagoda]

Yea what's gonna happen to the sea?

[gaunt star]

*adjust

[somber storm]

Moon fish

[lean adder]

Seas are going to look like kolusa's

[narrow heron]

Whaling on the moon

[primal sundial]

inb4 it turns out ||the moon IS actually Zodiark||

[obsidian pagoda]

I mean, he is imprisoned there

[lean adder]

Parts of him

[narrow heron]

Wouldn't it be one part of him at least?

[gaunt star]

So Zodiark housing.

[primal sundial]

Zodiark Housing

[obsidian pagoda]

Moon housing is just a bunch of white nondescript domes

[somber storm]

Zodiark transforms

[lean adder]

Seems odd hydelin gets weaker with every rejoining

[somber storm]

https://tenor.com/view/rita-powerrangers-welcome-surprise-gif-5303725

[narrow heron]

When your God is so fat he becomes a housing district.

[gaunt star]

Thanks Ascians.

[somber storm]

Ascians fat

All that lahabread

[lean adder]

NB4 zodiark is pretty chill and sacrifices himself to stop the moon crash

[primal sundial]

[spare warren]

big Assciasns

[narrow heron]

Then Hydaelyn is like "You need a diet" and then cuts your portions by 1/14th

Ascians like "Damnit let me eat"

[gaunt star]

Pulls off the 'ol Louisoix.

[lean adder]

Also somone pointed out that venat means to hunt.

[narrow heron]

Ascians were so big cause of all the food

[somber storm]

Ancients had to offer food to Zodiark so they can live

[obsidian pagoda]

Cause she was made to break Zodiark, so with him getting stronger she gets weaker again until a balance is achieved... or something

[narrow heron]

Just imagining Dominos into existence

[deft burrow]

Moon's haunted

[lean adder]

Imma take a guess if were azim, then Zenos is venat

[deft burrow]

I'll tell you what Zenos is

Dying

[somber storm]

!faq juicy

[lusty shadow]

Juicy

[primal sundial]

the Sound was made by an amaurotine falling to the ground

[gusty quest]

Venat is the heart of Hydaelyn though

[cedar wadi]

[narrow heron]

Looking at it, that armor must be really awkward at times.

[lean adder]

We dont know how primal hearts work tbh...

[narrow heron]

Can't hold your arms close to yourself

[obsidian pagoda]

The sound was Zenos' fat arse colliding with the ground

[narrow heron]

on account of all the CHONK

[gusty quest]

So unless she left I don't think she's Zenos

[primal sundial]

Zenos so thicc he needs the entire moon

[cedar wadi]

Venat is Elidibus’s counterpart, no?

[somber storm]

Pretty much

[gusty quest]

Yeah. She is

She's Hydaelyn's heart

[lean adder]

Elidibus sole desire was to save the world

[cedar wadi]

Do we even know Elidibus’ name?

[narrow heron]

Zenos becomes Xenos, and starts the Alien invasion

[gusty quest]

Like how Elidibus was Zodiark's

[lean adder]

Venat possible desire is to destroy zodiark

[cedar wadi]

Or to keep it in check

[balmy mesa]

ah, we'll probably see what the Ascians are known as

oh whoops

forgot I accidentally tagged someone

[primal sundial]

I cri evertim

[lean adder]

See thats the big thing that is concerning hydeling motherly role seems rather odd because it wasnt what she was summoned for but has the trait none the less

[gaunt star]

It's us.

[somber storm]

Hildibrand Ancient when?

[lean adder]

Hilderbrand = hythlodeus?

[gusty quest]

Hildibrand must return. We need the gentleman of light once more

[balmy mesa]

I'm mildly curious as to whether Hydaelyn will have a bosom, in the theme of Lakshmi

[cedar wadi]

Hildibrand isn’t an ancient

[gaunt star]

Only he can save us from 6.0.

[cedar wadi]

He’s a ||manderville man||

[gusty quest]

We need comedy

[gaunt star]

Enter Hildibrand alliance raid.

[obsidian pagoda]

She totes does

[gusty quest]

We need laughter

We need HILDIBRAND

[gaunt star]

May the Light take her into her bosom.

[lean adder]

Imagine if next chaprer of hilderband is on the first

[narrow heron]

Somehow I kinda miss the ridiculousness of Hildi after all that seriousness.

[primal sundial]

ressssst your weary souls into my bosom

[gaunt star]

Hildibrand was too busy bringing the moon to us.

[narrow heron]

Wonder if he'll remember being summoned with the other Light warriors by Elidibus

[gusty quest]

I'm sure Hildibrand will return for 6.0

[primal sundial]

he will find a way to launch himself to it

[obsidian pagoda]

What are those if not boobies

[primal sundial]

he did it with Dalamud

[lean adder]

I want another crafter project after ishgaurd resto

[pastel coyote]

the ship is just a rock throw by Hildi

[gaunt star]

Garlemald restoration.

[gusty quest]

He'll probably pop out of the void he was sucked into along with Nashu and Greg

[obsidian pagoda]

Garlemald Restoration

[gaunt star]

[balmy mesa]

idyllshire restoration?

[primal sundial]

Eulmore Housing

[deft burrow]

Eulmore Housing

[lean adder]

Eulmore more likely

[balmy mesa]

that's the literal definition of a holiday house

[narrow heron]

Most technologically advanced civ on our world left in devastation.

CUL: I FIX!

[lean adder]

Or maybe an ahm marang one

[balmy mesa]

"oh, eorzea's going to shit, I'm just going to schlep to the first"
alt: "oh, eorzea's going to shit, where's truck-kun so I can isekai myself?"

[deft burrow]

Moon housing

:D

[gaunt star]

Ala Mhigo.

[narrow heron]

The prices would be astronomical

[deft burrow]

Garlemald housing

[narrow heron]

😄

[lean adder]

Animal crossing x ffxiv when?

[narrow heron]

Their architecture in the view times we see it is pretty bland tho

[gaunt star]

And so CUL picks up the frying pan once more.

[balmy mesa]

please no, we already are at the mercy of rowena

[primal sundial]

Tom Nook is an ascian

[narrow heron]

Isn't that the new Island Sanctuary?

[primal sundial]

Tom Nook paying you in scrips

[gaunt star]

Total Island Sanctuary.

[narrow heron]

Just put the Tanuki pet at the forefront and you got Animal Crossing

[lean adder]

If i undersootd it, yeah island sanctuary is definetly animal crossing inspired

Harvest moon / star dew

Isabell minion

[gaunt star]

Island Sanctuary but each world is limited to 5 islands and you have to click a placard to purchase.

[narrow heron]

Some part of me hopes that it becomes canon that the WoL is just fed up with it all that they just go off to be a farmer for awhile.

[cedar wadi]

Do we know where Thavnair is?

[narrow heron]

We need a vacation

[obsidian pagoda]

It's an island on the map

!faq worldmap

[lusty shadow]

Hydaelyn world map translated by Rommy 🌎

[obsidian pagoda]

lower middle section of the map

[sullen gorge]

They even added Thavnair's flag in the trailer

[lean adder]

Far west?

[deft burrow]

Its the island

The big one

[primal sundial]

hey that's the name of the new dungeon

[balmy mesa]

Thavnair = Sri Lanka

[obsidian pagoda]

Yeah the dungeon is an Amal'jaa stronghold

Kinda like Xelphatol I imagine

[lean adder]

Brotherhood of ash are from there...

[cedar wadi]

Wow ty

[deft burrow]

Which dungeon?

[cedar wadi]

I didn’t know where Carteneau was

[deft burrow]

The one shown to us?

The one with the ruins?

[lean adder]

Cartanue is near cortheas and mor donah

[cedar wadi]

No, it’s between Thanalan and Mor Dhona

[balmy mesa]

Carteneau is south of Mor Dhona, I think?

[obsidian pagoda]

South west

[lean adder]

Very far off mentally ><

[balmy mesa]

I got the impression it was part of the southern bit of Silvertear Lake that didn't make it into ARR from 1.0

[lean adder]

That would explain the imperial fort at mor donah then

[primal sundial]

1.0 maps scare me

[lean adder]

They where mostly useless

[obsidian pagoda]

This one, it was from the Live Letter not the 6.0 announcement

[lean adder]

Due to how repetitve and winding and you cant move with it open and no mini map

[cedar wadi]

That’s on gyr abania no?

[deft burrow]

o yeah that's somewhere in the south

[lean adder]

Gyr abania is eastward

[obsidian pagoda]

It's east of Thanalan

[rough kestrel]

No thats just Thanalan

The most ARR looking dungeon ever

[cedar wadi]

Isnt the tower in thanalan in the middle of the desert?

Ohh

[primal sundial]

Bay of Dhaaaa'yum

[cedar wadi]

Right, the name

[balmy mesa]

yeah, the 5G tower

[narrow barn]

Bay of dha'yum, right next to ul'bruh

[pastel coyote]

i wonder if our amal'jaa bro will be here with the miqote

We need to help them

[balmy mesa]

side note, I wonder where Alisaie got the idea of the porxies from...

[obsidian pagoda]

Oink oink

[primal sundial]

Haamburger

[narrow barn]

Final fantasy britain

Final fantasy britain

[primal sundial]

"Oi you're the Wa'ior of Loite innit"

[obsidian pagoda]

There's a whale near Garlemald, we're gonna catch it and use it to go to the moon

[craggy pawn]

I wonder how long endwalker will be.

[balmy mesa]

it'll be meaty

[gaunt star]

Prophecy fulfilled.

[primal sundial]

there's also a giant

[gaunt star]

Another new mount.

[primal sundial]

16 seats mount

[balmy mesa]

24

[primal sundial]

an entire alliance raid mount

[pastel coyote]

or we go back to the first and... "bismark you're a faery too right ? So you can travel shard right ? I have a job for you"

[narrow barn]

48

Roll up to BA

[gaunt star]

This, tbh.

We will use this mount during the Hildibrand alliance raid.

[balmy mesa]

on the gold saucer?

[primal sundial]

Hildibrand alliance raid
well they DID say the new alliance raid would explain something of Eorzean history

[narrow barn]

This but unironically

[obsidian pagoda]

I hope since it's the conclusion of the arc it will be longer than the ShB MSQ'

[pastel coyote]

the giant is Hildibrand

[gaunt star]

Hildibrand saved Eorzea, don't @ me.

Hildibrand made 2.0 famous.

[primal sundial]

[pastel coyote]

Well if thing are supposed to end by 6.0 we can suppose it will be longer

[obsidian pagoda]

It's a statue created by people who think Godbert is a mythical god

[gaunt star]

Where is Hildibrand, best part of ff14 to be honest

[gaunt star]

It's not even his final form.

sad he is not in shadowbringers

ShB is too small time for Hildibrand.

[balmy mesa]

they said they wanted to give him a break, though

because it got boring

[pastel coyote]

here the final form https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/scale_landscape/mig/4/9/5/7/2114957-169_asuras_wrath_gameplay_x360_022212_m2.jpg

[primal sundial]

not really boring, more like they didn't have any ideas for him and ShB

[balmy mesa]

ye, it was repetitive

[gaunt star]

Hildibrand has too much light.

Can't bring shadows if he's around.

[obsidian pagoda]

would've been funny if we met the First shard of Hildy

[balmy mesa]

I enjoyed Hildibrand, but I could see how it could've been too much

[primal sundial]

who we actually want is Nashu

[pastel coyote]

well we kinda did

i mean hildi is in the final dungeon

[high swan]

"I can look after myself you know"

I hate this arrogance

I hope she dies

[weary smelt]

alisaies always been like that

[pastel coyote]

tsun-tsun

[gaunt star]

Looking after myself intensifies.

[high swan]

Yeah, but really hammered home in this cinematic

[primal sundial]

I'd say it's perfectly in-character for her

[high swan]

"Can look after herself"
Saved my WOL and then healed by Alphie

[primal sundial]

she's not arrogant

just tsundere

[gaunt star]

What SCH mains will say to their Sage co-healers.

[balmy mesa]

she's always been in the shadow of her brother

[craggy pawn]

She is an redmage

[high swan]

I suppose she can look after herself with her Vercure

[primal sundial]

Sage: "here's a shield"
SCH: "ye fuccin wat m8"

[craggy pawn]

Any other healers are an natural threat to her

[obsidian pagoda]

She's a teenager and she says teenage things

[weary smelt]

that as well ^

[gaunt star]

Sage: "Here's how barrier healing is supposed to work."

[primal sundial]

a teenager who wants to prove she can do stuff by herself

[balmy mesa]

she's been a teenager for like, 10 years

[obsidian pagoda]

By god if I have to list out the shit I said when I was a teenager I'd die of cringe

[weary smelt]

and she'll stay one :')

[primal sundial]

same

[gaunt star]

same

[weary smelt]

i doubt they're going to age the twins up

[primal sundial]

I die of cringe everytime I look a few years back

[gaunt star]

wrong REPLY.

[obsidian pagoda]

lmao

[balmy mesa]

same

[tiny wind]

what she said in the jp audio is more bearable tbh

[primal sundial]

what does she say in jp?

[tiny wind]

sec i forgot kek

[vagrant sinew]

shame that her jp voice sucks

[high swan]

Her one redeeming attribute is her dogged determination, but thats it. She needs to drop the negative streak and realize its a fucking team effort here.

[weary smelt]

yeah but that'd take her entire character away

[soft gyro]

She want's to catch up to alphinaud, cause now alphinaud is better than her.

[gaunt star]

"There are limits to what a solo player can do."

[pastel coyote]

no u

[high swan]

Shes pissed Alphinaud got the new job and she didn't?

[vagrant sinew]

she's too high pitched

[soft gyro]

She is the only one who has not changed yet, so she wants to be stronger.

[tiny wind]

well

[gaunt star]

True, sadly.

[vagrant sinew]

en alisaie is best alisaie

[primal sundial]

cue her talking about character development in 5.3

[weary smelt]

jp alisaie sounds at minimum 7

lmao

[tiny wind]

she says the same shit in jp VO basically but the nuance is less arrogant

[balmy mesa]

to be fair, she got rdm while alphie got stuck with sch forever

[obsidian pagoda]

I actually love EN Alisaie cause that's how I imagine a stubborn teenager sounds like

[high swan]

@balmy mesa Good point

[soft gyro]

"UGH, STOP IT, I CAN DO IT MYSELF"

[tiny wind]

no man lmao

[vagrant sinew]

yeah exactly

[gaunt star]

[primal sundial]

uhrm actshually Alphinaud is an ACADEMICIAN adjusts glasses

[vagrant sinew]

en alisaie is stubborn

[high swan]

She doesnt know how good shes got it

[balmy mesa]

"you don't need to make a spectacle of yourself, gosh"

[gaunt star]

Academician is what you call yourself while still attending.

[primal sundial]

didn't they graduate already

they got the SMARTS

[gaunt star]

Maybe not mentally.

[soft gyro]

the only one who mentally graduated was thancred

[primal sundial]

^

[soft gyro]

and yshtola

[rare sinew]

Now he's a sage. So he'll be even more pretentious

[primal sundial]

nah Y'shtola just got more powerful

[gaunt star]

Y'shtola became brave.

[primal sundial]

and got sick of healing

she came to the RIGHT COLOR of magic

[tiny wind]

y'shtola #1 waifu dont @ me

[high swan]

^

[soft gyro]

sage sounds better than red mage

[high swan]

What about Red Sage

[gaunt star]

Red sage.

[primal sundial]

SAD MAGE

[gaunt star]

Next melee DPS.

[primal sundial]

ah no

[high swan]

😮

Actually, #1 Waifu is Adelberta from the Miners guild

[primal sundial]

Sad Mage will be my BLM because I'll never see a 130k crit direct hit again

[tiny wind]

what about serendipity from gold smiths

[gaunt star]

She's a gold digger.

Be careful.

[primal sundial]

HA

[high swan]

No

[tiny wind]

[primal sundial]

the true gold digger is the highlander woman from the miners' guild

[high swan]

ADELBERTA REMEMBER HER NAME

[primal sundial]

I WILL

[gaunt star]

She's just mining for the right gem to call her husbando.

[primal sundial]

Adalberta and Mylla from the Gladiators' Guild

Mylla is hotter ngl

[gaunt star]

Mylla def. tsundere.

[high swan]

So, i have never kept tracking of stuff leading up the an expansion launch until this one, even though i played at launch for all expansions. How soon before the expansion do we get the Job skills showcase?

[onyx sundial]

i subjected myself into only bozja for 3 days

and this is as far as i get

[obsidian pagoda]

@high swan the May Fanfest should have a lot more info for us

[balmy mesa]

past 5.5 launch

May is probably the best bet

[high swan]

Nice

Those videos are pretty hype

[tiny wind]

i loved the SB one

[vagrant sinew]

how many hours per day

[gaunt star]

Keep going, you're just two away.

[vagrant sinew]

I mean p sure it was obvious from the get go that CT was gonna be objectively better

[empty moss]

Wrong

[primal sundial]

RIGHT COLOR

[empty moss]

BLUE is the True colour

[primal sundial]

[gaunt star]

BLU to be optimized as tank mage.

[primal sundial]

I'll try BLU out once I've levelled the 3 jobs I've left

[balmy mesa]

excuse me, the correct colour is octarine

[empty moss]

BLU to be the Ultimate Heal DPS

[gaunt star]

That's Sage.

[next marsh]

it already is

[gaunt star]

😡

[ionic flicker]

Someone might have said this before but... Sharlayan is confirmed to be in 6.0

[balmy mesa]

sage = green magic

[empty moss]

BLU be like https://youtu.be/3JbMyJStc5I

[gaunt star]

6.0 to optimize heal classes as the following: Sage + 3

[balmy mesa]

idk, they handled tanks pretty well

[next marsh]

I don't mind this just as long as they don't nerf my AST too hard

[balmy mesa]

are you fine with losing noct?

[primal sundial]

I'm very afraid of losing noct :(

[gaunt star]

Make Gravity have stun effect.

[balmy mesa]

I was sad when SCH got beat into the ground

[next marsh]

not really as long as we keep neutral sect

[primal sundial]

but I also like Scholar so if they buff scholar to take it on par with Sage I'll be fine with it

[balmy mesa]

scholar hopefully will get some of its class flavour back

[gaunt star]

Eye for an Eye. 👀

[balmy mesa]

I don't like playing WHM, tbh

[primal sundial]

I joined this game a month after ShB so I never knew what original SCH was like

[vagrant sinew]

is it?

[next marsh]

although it will make PF quite infuriating

[balmy mesa]

they basically gutted SCH

[gaunt star]

Future PFs will only want Sage and discount Sage.

[balmy mesa]

I'm fine with that tbh

[next marsh]

who is discount sage?

[balmy mesa]

sch

[primal sundial]

get ready for Sage to have instant oGCD shields while Scholar still has to use half MP for one cast of Adlo

[gaunt star]

Or WHM.

Or AST.

[obsidian pagoda]

Where'd you hear this?

[balmy mesa]

it may be the "city icon" thing

[gaunt star]

"But we have a fairy at least..."

6.0 to enable Eos to fish for freephysick.

[balmy mesa]

man, fuck that, they killed her

[primal sundial]

6.0 to give Benediction to Eos

[gaunt star]

SCH is now best healer.

[primal sundial]

btw I'm currently leveling DNC, GNB and WHM left to get every job to 80

I'm curios if I'm gonna like GNB and WHM

DNC is fun

[gaunt star]

I'm looking forward to PLD in 6.0 tbh.

[primal sundial]

Job Action prediction: Paladin gets Raise at 90

/s.................?

[gaunt star]

And now OTs will be kicked for not raising.

[high swan]

So i watched the Moonwalker trailer for about the 28th time just now
On the final shot as the Warrior of Light turns around he looks like he is protecting the planet

POG

Gave me goosenipples

[primal sundial]

goosenipples

[high swan]

I may be slow on this one

[gaunt star]

AOE Cover or AOE Clemency.

[primal sundial]

Hallowed now lasts 60 seconds

[gaunt star]

Actually AOE clemency please because we're going to get a bunch of Sages not knowing what they're doing.

[primal sundial]

Cecil has AoE healing so

[next marsh]

based off the trailer i feel like the next threat if we don't reunite the worlds will be aliens

[gaunt star]

https://tenor.com/view/vince-mc-mahon-falling-in-chair-surprised-wwe-gif-7810711

A wet dream.

Unless the cooldown is doubled.

Then

[primal sundial]

the aliens from NieR Automata will invade after we're done with the Alliance Raids

[high swan]

Cosmic horror @next marsh

[formal agate]

Well 6.0 is already leaning heavily into FFIV it might as well include the plot from the FFIV: The After Years

[gaunt star]

They're coming to revoke some clause in a license.

[high swan]

In the Shadow Bringers dungeon, the one Emet Selch is talking in, the mobs in that look very....cosmic

[gaunt star]

And then SE will have to cause another calamity and re-release the game after licensing is dealt with.

[balmy mesa]

goosenipples?

[rough kestrel]

It's really apparent now that WoL is aging.

[primal sundial]

Bloodborne CONFIRMED

[unreal wadi]

Like us?

[primal sundial]

"Grant us eyes, grant us eyes"

[next marsh]

i believe it especially with all those minions announced and lunarwhale

[obsidian pagoda]

Hotlander

[gaunt star]

Dadlander.

[rough kestrel]

Well the thing I find weird is that the Twins dont age but WoL has aged 10 years in real time

[balmy mesa]

I prefer his monk haircut tho

[rough kestrel]

He's like early 30s there

[high swan]

^

Hes in the prime of his life right now

[obsidian pagoda]

Nah I like the scruffy DRK hair

[primal sundial]

after 6.0 there's gonna be a timeskip and next thing you know the twins are now fully grown elezens

with their elezen faces

and height

[obsidian pagoda]

If there was a time for timeskip, 7.0 is definitely it

[high swan]

WoL will be balding

[primal sundial]

I won't be surprised if they actually do it

[rough kestrel]

They need to give him CGI Aymeric hair so I can see the WoL as my character.

[primal sundial]

WoL becomes a fat boomer with receding hairline

[high swan]

Koji Fox leaked WoL hairstyle for 7.0 at the showcase

[obsidian pagoda]

Still want this look for the Twins

[primal sundial]

that's Griffith

[rough kestrel]

We want the twins to be Elezen like Hilda is an Elezen, not like actual Elezens

So Hyurs with elf ears

[balmy mesa]

alisaie's legs, though

[next marsh]

thats actually pretty great Art

[kindred rampart]

Aliens? Thats nothing. . .

[balmy mesa]

better that it goes to her legs than the neck, though, like every elezen

[rough kestrel]

Goddammit Furiae

[high swan]

Alisaie wont look like that, she dies in 6.0

[rough kestrel]

You die in 6.0

[high swan]

for being arrogant

[gaunt star]

Finally.

[high swan]

[balmy mesa]

moon's haunted

[rough kestrel]

Its just MGS4 all over again, ends with a gun in a graveyard.

[next marsh]

aliens

[rough kestrel]

And a hug from dad

[obsidian pagoda]

This is how their dad looks

[balmy mesa]

hrmm, looks like he's been on meth

[rough kestrel]

No they'll give them unique models like Aymeric

So they dont look so Elezen'y

[open verge]

[kindred rampart]

can't hide that neck growth spurt from happening for much longer

[gaunt star]

Rename Elezen to Aymeric.

[next marsh]

I could actually picture the PuPu being a beast tribe if Aliens enter

[primal sundial]

Giraffisaie and Giraffinaud

[rough kestrel]

The quest will be

"What a load of PuPu"

[next marsh]

XD

[gaunt star]

With an appropriate reward item.

[balmy mesa]

900 koroks.

[rough kestrel]

Feculent Flood

[coral kite]

Meh considering the weird passage of time in game, given up any hope of characters looking radically different

[next marsh]

PuPu minion and ufo mount tho

[rough kestrel]

I mean SHB did age up thancred but ingame he looks completely different.

He uses the ugly Hyur face

[balmy mesa]

they probably just use a healthy dose of handwavium as part of their normal skincare routine

[gaunt star]

He just needs to fanta again.

[rough kestrel]

If you give Thancred Face 5 + WoL Stubble, he suddenly looks like CGI SHB Thancred

[coral kite]

thancred do be having a weird ass hyur face

[rough kestrel]

His hair hides how weird it really is

[next marsh]

Thancred just needs to retire with his husbando Urianger

[balmy mesa]

speaking of, I should fanta back to my old char from catboy

[coral kite]

We could always have hobocred back

From hw

[rough kestrel]

What I find curious is, do you think we will see any other scions in the long trailer?

[next marsh]

most likely

[balmy mesa]

ofc

just needs to be finalised

[rough kestrel]

It might be we only get the Twins and maybe Estinien

[obsidian pagoda]

Krile and tataru please

[rough kestrel]

But no one else

[silk dragon]

i guess theres wont be a gaius trust or a fordola one

[next marsh]

in the shadowbringers teaser it was just ystola and urangier

[onyx sundial]

i think about 6 hrs

[rough kestrel]

Gaius trust will be later

[balmy mesa]

o shit, what if tataru takes up the melee dps role

[kindred rampart]

we got possible candidates for who actually live on the moon from FF4

[balmy mesa]

why not both?

[primal sundial]

Naming way to become Endwalkingway

[balmy mesa]

drag queen sage, and moon bunny

[rough kestrel]

The rabbit princess descending from the moon is a common JP folklore thing

[silk dragon]

that would make Gaius a trust tank using the same GNB animations

[gaunt star]

In 6 hrs. you'll have 15, you can do it!

I believe in you.

[silk dragon]

so a white viara?

[rough kestrel]

He'd have a hybrid set

[obsidian pagoda]

Tsukuyomi specifically have rabbit ears

[rough kestrel]

With a unique stance

And his X attack but then regular GNB shit

[balmy mesa]

so definitely a rabbit BT

I'd be ok with that

[gaunt star]

Trust and he gives a lot of monologue during combat.

[silk dragon]

a bit ironic for gaius to team up with us aganst garlmald

[rough kestrel]

If he dies to a TB

You get

[gaunt star]

Unskippable dialogue in-between pulls.

[rough kestrel]

SUCH DEVASTATION, THIS WAS NOT MY INTENTION

[balmy mesa]

it makes sense though

[primal sundial]

[next marsh]

I mean Garlmald does have that civil war going on

[silk dragon]

more like being destroyed from within

[coral kite]

Fordola trust might happen

[rough kestrel]

Gaius is on our side now though, with no Garlemald and nobody on the planet with skills worth jack shit, he has no choice.

[primal sundial]

Gaius is a garlean Who doesn’t want to see his homeland burn

[balmy mesa]

yaaaargh

[gaunt star]

It is up to the WoL to restore Garlemald.

[coral kite]

It's not out of the realm of possibility

[gaunt star]

Take up the hand and craft Garlemald back to it's former glory.

[rough kestrel]

We will rebuild Garlemald with Gaius at it's head.

[next marsh]

Garlemald restoration

[silk dragon]

then what for gaius to take the throne ?

[narrow heron]

SUCH RESTORATION

[gaunt star]

^

[obsidian pagoda]

$20 this is the route they're going for

[rough kestrel]

Garlemald housing, all that factory nier housing stuff will finally fit somewhere

[gaunt star]

Such restoration but it's our intention.

[next marsh]

Garlean Housing but the whole neibhborhood is night time forever

[rough kestrel]

I really think we would get Garlemald crafting fates that meme his Dialogue

[gaunt star]

[gusty quest]

I say we become Garlemald's ruler. How hard can it be to rule a nation?

[violet maple]

then dalamud 2 happens and garlemald goes boom

[silk dragon]

more like poluted sky

[high swan]

The tower in the trailer is the tower in Garlemald btw

[rough kestrel]

Yeah

You can see from the Garlemald zone art

[narrow heron]

That tower is so odd.

[rough kestrel]

That has a big fucking tower in it

[obsidian pagoda]

That tower looks nothing like Garlean architecture

[narrow heron]

Is it gonna be the spaceship we see in the logo

[obsidian pagoda]

The one Zenos is on that is

[narrow heron]

Cause it looks alien

[gaunt star]

Star Trek crossover.

[high swan]

People predicted it might be the spaceship or one of those towers

[rough kestrel]

It looks too sleek

[obsidian pagoda]

Aliens crossover cause of the Giger aesthetic

[rough kestrel]

That ship looks Allagan sleek, not Fanny Dan Alien tech

[next marsh]

oh definitely, it will be rebuilt as midgar and after we complete it we will live in the slum portion

[narrow heron]

Well, Emet did found Allagan

I think?

[primal sundial]

That tower is the tower from The Lord of the Rings

[rough kestrel]

Maybe Sharlayan is just literally fucking Esthar from FF8 and they have ships ready

[primal sundial]

Fandaniel is Sauron

[silk dragon]

you think Cid will be involved with spaceship restration

[obsidian pagoda]

The ship is basically a Star Wars Star Destroyer

and Zenos' tower is like the place in Prometheus

[primal sundial]

Btw the architecture looks like the void ark if anything

[gaunt star]

6.0 pulling out all the 3rd party stops.

[obsidian pagoda]

complete opposite look

[balmy mesa]

aaahhh weaver quests

[rough kestrel]

Mark my word, this will be Sharlayan architecture now.

[silk dragon]

or alag

[balmy mesa]

guessing this is what we'd expect costume-wise from Thavnair

[gaunt star]

Phantasy Star Online.

[rough kestrel]

Thats just Esthar City from FF8

[gaunt star]

Final Phantasy Star.

[rough kestrel]

It exists without context

[balmy mesa]

well there was mention that the FFXIV side of PSO hadn't occured

[primal sundial]

Phinal Phantasy

[next marsh]

FF9 refrences

[rough kestrel]

Meat dimension from P4

[kindred rampart]

though if Lunarians as a race do exist it would be funny to make it a twist that they ||look similar to pureblooded Garleans with a more pronounced third eye ||

[silk dragon]

irony

[coral kite]

Meat dimensions yuck

[balmy mesa]

with some rather meaty dialogue

[coral kite]

But cool

[balmy mesa]

but void ark kinda had the meaty feel down

[rough kestrel]

Black mage casts spells "Hey what smells good"

[balmy mesa]

"what's the rock cooking" = geomancer reveal

[gaunt star]

^

[silk dragon]

i think conjer is the closet thing we get to geomancer

[balmy mesa]

it's still a meme tho

[gaunt star]

D'wayne Johnson the geomancer.

[kindred rampart]

https://tenor.com/view/watch-for-rocks-the-rock-dwayne-johnson-gif-14871339

[rough kestrel]

You know, we could literally get a Fordola cameo in the 5.5 dungeon

[gaunt star]

[rough kestrel]

Because picture thisd

She's already there because of shit popping off, like the resistance in Ghimlyt

[next marsh]

what race would he be, a Roe?

[high swan]

The best part? We will hear FF4 OST "Another Moon" again

[silk dragon]

with estien joining us it kinda makes sense with ryene being stuck in the first

[balmy mesa]

fordola as tank trust npc would not be a horrible option

[rough kestrel]

I hope 6.0 ends with Gaia coming out of no where and just killing Zenos with her hammer, like the E8N cutscene

[silk dragon]

what as comunty service?

[balmy mesa]

yes

[high swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czw4UJ64zos&ab_channel=symphonicremasters

[regal lantern]

Why do people think Lunarians exist in ffxiv?

[high swan]

Because

[rough kestrel]

Because they forget Allagans may be in space

[next marsh]

would explain allagan tech

[silk dragon]

maybe sage would be a Alag job

[kindred rampart]

hope they nail the four fiends
https://youtu.be/C8vz186pjY0

[balmy mesa]

reference to this, really

[regal lantern]

When did this get released?

[rough kestrel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LQR1sEm9-0
@high swan It weirdly reminds me alot of this.

[primal sundial]

110% there’s gonna be allagan stuff on the moon

[high swan]

I hope the Lunarians dont have ears like that. I had just about my fill of humanoids with rabbit/cat ears

[next marsh]

would also be a cool raid

[silk dragon]

virea maybe?

[gaunt star]

I see your 110% and raise 120%.

[high swan]

@rough kestrel Yeah same feel

[primal sundial]

MOON VIERA

[silk dragon]

as a sub race

[next marsh]

wait what if the thing from the logo is the Lunatic Pandora and thats the 24 man raid?

[balmy mesa]

Namingway came with Encyclopaedia Eorzea vol 1

[rough kestrel]

@next marsh That'd be fucking cool

[kindred rampart]

@rough kestrel I imagine Pandemonium will be quite the amalgamation of all FF variants

[gaunt star]

Male moon viera!

[rough kestrel]

But then that'd be two FF8 based raids

[gaunt star]

As a beast tribe only.

[next marsh]

yeah be quite the overkill

[silk dragon]

i wasnt kidding about the idea of Sage being a alag orgin

[kindred rampart]

hope their LB looks like a space nuke. . .but it HEALS

[rough kestrel]

Since FF8 also deals with going into space I could see some fun nods.

[gaunt star]

BLM drops meteor, Sage drops the moon.

But instead it heals.

[primal sundial]

FFXIV be like

ALLAGANS

[gaunt star]

^

[balmy mesa]

kinda had that vibe from Akademia Anyder, I think

with Quetzalcoatl as the final boss

[regal lantern]

I swear to God, I hope they don’t make 6.0 another expansion to praise Allagans

[rough kestrel]

A little bit

[gaunt star]

Every explanation circles back around to the allagans.

[regal lantern]

It’s a dead civilisations, couldn’t even survive 1 calamity

Look at eorzea surviving 3

[balmy mesa]

we may meet the Mhach Street Boys thouh

[next marsh]

also the sand skipper was a nod as well

[regal lantern]

How so

[kindred rampart]

https://i.imgur.com/qj4GFRP.gif
AETHER
GOD
PRIMALS

[balmy mesa]

it's a joke

[next marsh]

they really haven't touched on FFX really other than the Ramuh/Ixion/Bahamut hybrid and the thunderplains

[balmy mesa]

but a lot of the HW/Void Ark/Mhach stuff seems prominent in this trailer

[rough kestrel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNg7pwqIVf4
I hope you guys are ready for the Lunar Cry

[silk dragon]

i bet the Sage Job questline is about a NPC discorving the sage job with us

[balmy mesa]

he could be enthusiastic about gardening and misinterpreted the sage job as what it was

just in thyme

[kindred rampart]

Lunar Cry could literally be Lunar Bahamut calling for back up and his brood floods Hydaelyn

[gaunt star]

He originally thinks he's teaching you SCH.

[silk dragon]

or a archaeologist

[balmy mesa]

so fond of gardening

[next marsh]

still see this as a possability, would give us a new threat to keep it going

[rough kestrel]

In FF8 its lore is that "Every monster" was originally from the moon.

[next marsh]

basically yes

[rough kestrel]

Shit just keeps falling

[kindred rampart]

the moon takes a dump on earth every so often

[next marsh]

Another route they could go is

[kindred rampart]

oh boy

LUNAR RECONSTRUCTION

want housing ON THE FUCKING MOON?

[next marsh]

thats what i was thinking

[balmy mesa]

so we gotta fill the moon hole?

[rough kestrel]

That moldy old moon hole

[next marsh]

bravely second was a really good game

[balmy mesa]

I didn't enjoy the demo, was the actual game better?

[next marsh]

oh yeah defintely made the orignal game feel like trash

[balmy mesa]

nice

oh

... that was bravely default II

enjoyed bravely second end layer a lot, though

[primal sundial]

I have a friend who's a huge Bravely fan

and she said the demo for Default II is

very bad

[balmy mesa]

yeah

[primal sundial]

she's not sure she's gonna like the game

[balmy mesa]

I forgot about bravely second

[primal sundial]

I still have to play it

[balmy mesa]

even though I enjoyed that a lot

[next marsh]

thats what i said XD

[balmy mesa]

that's why I got so confused

[next marsh]

their naming scheme is confusing

[balmy mesa]

it's like they doubled down on the KH naming scheme

[next marsh]

kinda did

what do you mean this is KH3 what about all the other previous games?

[primal sundial]

they're spin-offs obviously

wait until you see how the Metal Gear Solid numbers work

[kindred rampart]

@balmy mesa man I wish they called it something different because people will constantly get confused when mentioning Bravely 2 now lol

[balmy mesa]

yeah lol

[next marsh]

I mean if its a contiuation call it bravely third, you know like the game we been waiting for

[kindred rampart]

yeah

[balmy mesa]

tying the name to the battle system never ends well

[kindred rampart]

also I wish the game went with a different art direction since slapping more detail on the super deformed models just doesn't feel right to me lol

[primal sundial]

my friend has the same exact complaint

way too detailed for basically puppets

[next marsh]

you weren't a fan of the chibi models?

[kindred rampart]

I imagine it would have just went for the more proportional models they used in the FMV's

[next marsh]

oh

[kindred rampart]

oh I like the style but once you start putting too much detail on it

it kinda loses me

[next marsh]

yeah i can see the point

[balmy mesa]

realistic models on the backgrounds would have been fine

it worked for the DS, cos low resolution

[next marsh]

also the 3D feature helped clear it up more

[balmy mesa]

that gave me headaches

[next marsh]

oh it does

[primal sundial]

I liked the 3D on the 3DS 😔

but it was clear it was an experiment

[next marsh]

but its also an eye sore if you play without it XD

[balmy mesa]

it worked, but the screen should have been higher resolution

i'm honestly suprised they didnt try to enhance/improve it for the switch

[primal sundial]

I have a 3DS XL so the size made up for it a bit

[balmy mesa]

it was the weird interaction between the low resolution and 3d models and the screen that gave me headaches

[primal sundial]

even though the resolution was the same

[balmy mesa]

if it was just standard 2D sprites it would've been fine

[next marsh]

but then again 3-D movies have become such a fad

[balmy mesa]

no attempt at anti-aliasing needed there

[primal sundial]

I think 3D on the Switch with the same mechanism would have been difficult

also you can't have a touch screen with it

because it's literally 2 screens on top of each other, one gets shifted a bit off center when you activate the 3D

[next marsh]

mhmm, true true

[kindred rampart]

doesn't help 3D outside of headset tech just flat out died too

like all does 3D TV's needing to take a hit just to sell them to most people lol

[noble escarp]

what is this channel

[primal sundial]

it's because your head needs to be in a very precise spot in order to see the 3D

so they put a headset on you

so it moves with you

it's the channel where we talk about the next expansion

or rather where we SHOULD talk about it

[next marsh]

we kinda derailed it a bit >.<

[kindred rampart]

from the moon to bravely to nintendo to 3d technology

[primal sundial]

[kindred rampart]
