I'm sure he had the whole story structure in mind but he was waiting before he solidified certain elements. Like what bosses will be fought (not talking about the last ones), what music will be used, etc.
For example, I'm sure we got Knave, Hansel and Gretel because we were so hyped about the Dying Dragon bug. But...that's just guesswork.
I highly doubt he just made everything up step by step. But what can we realistically know what goes down in that head of his?
@wet crown Ok so this isn't as bad as it seems. I'm being told it's actually the pods that sense machine lifeforms, which is kinda stupid on its own but it's canon to Automata so I can't complain about it here.
just to play devil's advocate, but I bet that androids knew there was magic involved in the old war with humanity, so would these sorts of things really be that much of a reach?
Humans didn't grows limbs and other body parts through magic
I mean... [replicant spoilers] ||emil does, but he's not really human anymore||
@crystal arrow Did you play the new Replicant?
no, but I saw the "new" ending
Ok my question is || why is there a character that looks and talks like 9S, and is named 9S?||
I played the original but haven't really seen much of the new version
||I'd just wager that 9S and 2B are based off of those two?||
Something like that.
|| Makes sense but his name was literally "9S" ||
||especially since it's the same VAs||
Is that any weirder than say, the Facade peeps?
The mask people who are literally named after numbers
And it was a|| boy who looked like 9S talking to a floating book||
Like, ||maybe 9S is an android there because androids were around back then but the issue is that...coulda sworn 9S and all those models were YorHa exclusive unless yeah the YorHa version was based off of an earlier version||
||oh lmao that was the protagonist probably? you can name them whatever you want||
That would be hilarious if this was what happened
Oh my God please let that be why Lance is confused
replicant spoilers ||I mean, the "new" ending sorta suggests they were based off earlier versions||
Neat!
||yeah it has... two young looking characters who look like 9S and 2B, suspiciously voiced by 9S and 2B's VAs||
and there's a yorha skin you can ha- LOL
Ya he was dressed exactly like 9S too. I think that's what I was looking at.
like this?
I remember the shorts being light blue
Nier and 9S have nothing in common beyond both being young boys with white hair
Let me find a screenshot
2B/A2 on the otherhand
I think lance's source of confusion was that the person they were watching playing had literally named the protagonist 9S and was using the automata costume
Yeah the remake has Automata DLC, it's fucking weird
Yeah. Theres a costume that also changes the VA.
Thats the weirdest part
You aren't referring to dad Nier are you?
No, I'm referring to the 9s costume linked above. =p
Yeah okay changing VA for the automata shit is weird wtf
This entire discussion is a headache to read. Everyone drop what you're doing, go play both Niers
And see you in 2 months
ur not my dad u can't make me 
But while we're on the subject, Father Nier > Brother Nier.
I'm not buying a game I already played for full game price
Remake is amazing by the way
It plays very differently, though. Gameplay isn't jank ass.
The gameplay never bothered me in the first place
Calisaie this is like saying "I refuse to buy RE2 because I played the PSX one"
It wasn't awful, just wasn't good either
No, but it wasn't much to write home about either
Yes it is

New one is buttery smoof.
My memory was foggy. He isn't dressed like 9S but I definitely looked at him and thought it was 9S.
That's just the main character lol
Thats just Nier in his regular outfit.
Oh, yeah nah. Thats just the new MC.
He's the protag of NieR Replicant.
yo what's up with that human louisoix tho 👀
Baby bro Nier
Nier as an optimistic youngling sucks. Gimmie grumpy angry dad Nier.
New?
They originally made Nier Replicant, and then someone at SE was like "People in the west like big tough dudes like Kratos" so they also released Gestalt, which is the same game but you play as Yonah's Dad instead of her Brother.
Replicant didnt come out in the west originally
new for us
https://youtu.be/GL7rFmBFd2s daddy Nier
For Replicant Remake they opted to go with the Brother because well, canonically thats who the protagonist is.
But people like the dad too.
They're both canon.
I mean, people say canonically but there really isn't a difference
Just.. by the way. =p Word of Taro and all that.
Lip service
They went with young Nier because thats the one that was on PS3 in japan and so sold better.
I think Dad Nier is great but it doesn't take much to see which one was the original and which one was the result of publisher interference.
Brother Nier is the preferred canon, cause Dad Nier would never pick Ending D and thus isn't the optimum choice narrative wise
How.. why would he never pick ending D?
Whatever we're treading spoilers on a different game that people are actively playing, dont. =p
I think Gestalt was a neat novelty idea
... because a japanese publisher would interfere to make a character grizzled and old instead of a generic animeboy protag?
Yeah I dunno either
||Because as a Dad, he wanted to stay alive to protect Yonah, whereas Brother Nier and Kaine are on the same 'level' and thus will choose to erase his existence. This was confirmed either by Yoko or one of the devs in an interview.||
@distant sonnet Yes literally, there is a long history of this shit in game development in Japan "People in the west dont want your fucking soft boy protags" "People in Japan want young boys and not old men as protags"
||You really think, as a dad, he wouldn't give up anything to save his daughter?||
i guess the 3 weekly quests are just 3 quests that repeat twice
Which unlock the 3 continuing story quests
||He would, but the choice is to either save Kaine or not and he wouldn't have sacrificed himself for that as he lived for Yonah not Kaine.||
Ehhh I dunno. Like everything Taro does, its a mess. Heh
MGS2 and MGS4 are prime examples of Kojima provoking people in Japan and the West with these character archetypes
I'd find the interview if I got time, but basically they debated internally and came to this Papa = C, Brother = D, choice
Japanese people considered Snake an old Man, and the west fucking haaaated Raiden for the longest time
He is tho
You're an old man
Raiden was annoying. It wasn't because he was some soft boy
Raiden is pretty hateable.
It was all part of it
The game constantly reminded us that he looks feminine and "girly". It's deliberately rubbed into your face on top of the fact he was an annoying asshole
Yyyyeah I dunno how well they nailed that then, because if that was the intent he was awfully masculine.
Dude is jacked
He's not literally meant to be a girl, but he was designed to be super bishy
But he isn't especially bishy.
And in 2001, people did think he was girly as fuck
100%, the times have changed because modern society grew up as weebs
Yyyyeah I'm gonna have to disagree hard. Never once thought he was feminine looking. Just annoying. So if that was their intent, they failed hard.
There is a joke in the game that people think he looks like a woman
They literally have the President grab his crotch going "You're a Man!?"
Then those people need their eyes checked, or their design team didn't commit.
I'd say Adam and Eve in Automata looked feminine. Not Raiden though.
tbf he was being mistaken for a somewhat large, muscular woman in that scene
To you fucking weebs, he didn't look out of place, but in the era MGS2 came out in, that was 100% the intent and it worked on alot of people.
Olga, specifically.
Raiden was slender and had long blonde hair
Thats basically the extent of him looking like a woman
But this was 2001, that was enough
Anyone got a pic?
"Slender"? Uh.
Dat ass
Dem legs
Keep in mind that he's also limited by graphical fidelity and his concept art is his intended look. Yes, he does look somewhat feminine.
Char art.. more femine, yes.
Hmmm ya he does look more feminine than I remember but not enough for me to mistake him as a woman.
But in game that never came through at all.
tbf, the players aren't meant to mistake him for a woman
wow kojima really ripped off omega-m huh 🙄
He was designed deliberately to be the opposite of Snake, which people were expecting, because no trailer showed Raiden.
Could just be my memory but Snake is also very slim. He just has facial hair and a deep voice.
If you've ever played a japanese game, he's run off the mill bishy. If you're exclusively western gamers, he's definitely a pretty boy way back when. I still remember the many slurs thrown around when this came out.
And then MGS3 they play it up with his look alike being sexually abused by Volgin because hes a "pretty boy"
It's been awhile for me too but it was some sort of torture shit
How did we even get on this topic...
olga pretty
It was initially planned to be written in katakana as "ライデン", but was changed to the kanji form "雷電" because of a resemblance to Bin Laden's "Laden" in katakana, "ラーディン".
Errr what? 
That is a 2001 factoid if I ever see one
Talking about Nier and how Papa Nier was made because western audiences don't like slim pretty boys
Raiden got brought up as an example of Westerners Hate Pretty Boys somehiw.
They were gay and into BDSM, it wasn't abuse.
Uhhhhhh
From Nier, because I was explaining how in Game development, there's always been a weird issue where Japanese people didn't want gruff old man protags and Publishers thought the West didn't want bishy protags
Which is how we got Papa Nier in the west
We're talking when Nier was originally released not now of course
I thought Papa Nier was made because Western audiences would relate more to a single father struggling to protect his daughter vs a brother protecting his sister
So they're both named Nier?
I think character design entered in too, but yeah.
Yes, same character
One is the father and the other is the son or are they the same person
They are both named Nier. Their daughter/sister is Yonah, who is a different age depending as well.
We know Taroverse has multiple universes so yes they can both be Nier
They're the same person
They are the same character, tailored to different audiences.
In universe probably some Alternate Universe shit
Kaine is also a different age depending on the version, but her model and dialogue doesn't actually change
Different universe or different time periods
Universe
I see I see
It's a Pokemon Red/Green situation
Kinda like the endings of the games are in different Branches, so are the games themselves
Yeah it's just stuff that literally doesn't matter and you'd never actually know
Mmhm.
Its only because her birth year doesn't change and the game's year does. I think.
Yeah in the original versions, the initial year and timeskip seem to be slightly different
But it doesn't seem to mean anything
Its easier to just pretend Papa Nier never existed
He's great though
But Papa Nier is the better character.
^ fuck you Meara
There are definitely side quests that contextually make more sense as Brother Nier, but the opposite is true for some other side quests
Implying Rep is any better
It is
I mean hes kinda fugly, but both of then dress like blind idiots.
He doesn't wear a diaper on his head
His design is very last minute and this is particularly apparent with ||Shadowlord||
I found that Ending C/D choice thing, apparently out of Grimoire Nier
Meanwhile, novelist Jun Eishima expressed her opinion that Ending C would have been Father Nier's choice, while Ending D would be Brother Nier's choice, stating: "A father is responsible to his own daughter, so he couldn’t just give up his existence. He feels that it’s his duty to protect Yonah and raise her, so he’d kill Kainé and live on. On the other hand, a brother and sister both coexist with and depend on each other, so maybe he’d choose to disappear and be relieved from his burden."
h-he kinda do wear pants on his head
He wears a G-string on his head
Grimoire Nier is fuckin' wild.
Grimoire Liam is best book
I find myself muttering Matthew Mercer on every 3rd NPC I encounter though, but I like that everything is voiced by Crit Role people + others.
I mostly just miss Jaimeson Price.
"Thats his old man voice in the campaign" "Thats his generic guard voice in the campaign"
A few Sam Riegals are sprinkled throughout too
(Liam O'brien's IRL Husband)
Some of the short stories Grimoire Nier are absolutely bonkers. Its great.
If not precisely well translated online
Isn't that new side story girl in 1.22 taken from one of the short stories? 
Yeah, The Little Mermaid I think.
Ariel
can't wait for a weekly quest to substitute Louise/Little Mermaid for Knave of Hearts
What’s the nier quest this week
Merchant
JUST GO PLAY IT NERD
so buy another month?
If you're that invested in the story it's worth another $15
Stop making sense!
do you want me to dm you the notes
Yes pls
like all of them or just this week's
This week is all I need
kk
This seems pretty important to nier right?
the eggs never showed up in automata itself right?
Kinda sucks that I still can’t grasp this entirely I’m only at the very beginning of replicant
Which means, that it isn't Ending D that goes into our raid series. But rather Ending E.
no they didn't - but it seems like this seed could've been what was shot out of the tower in automata
It didn't. But then again, there's more than just 1 seed. And their existance doesn't have to be erased ever since the Queen Beast came to Tokyo
The chances this is setting up the next installment of nier is how much
ye i know there were multiple seeds
Everything Yoko Taro works in is canon...sooo.
pretty decent I think - could be another drakengard game too?
was curious tho if one had been shown in automata cos this week's comment is like how did they tho
Goddamit yoko
This doesn't have to be canon for the next NieR title. But it's absolutely canon lore.
TIMELOOP 
No, actually.
||What this means is that 9S and 2B somehow found out and intercepted the seed before it even came to Norvrandt.||
especially considering (replicant ver 1.22 spoiler) ||the new ending e in replicant||, i am thinking ||the ark went back in time somehow and implanted itself into the tree and that is how the "admins" in the kaine scenario look like 2b/9s||
That's not new.
|| 🤔 how do they know what a "virus" is, let alone a technological one?||
Hate to burst your bubble but ||this "new" Ending may not have been in Replicant before, but it's already been in the novel. The game just added extras.||
The pod said so?
We talked about this earlier - ||I think it's more reasonable to assume that's an older version of the ark, as those administrators look very... analog, and are directly connected to it. Given how it was recording everything about replicant, it'd explain why we fight digitized versions of hansel + gretel and knave in paradigm's breach||
yeah, nevermind, its early and i tend to jump to crack theories too quickly lol
right but it's said in a way that assumes people know what that term actually means
which is odd because from a general technological viewpoint, normal people on the First and Source shouldn't know what a ||virus|| is without further explanation
because viruses weren't discovered until the early 1900s
think given the time frame, disease would be more appropriate wording
no one on hydaelyn would even know what a virus is, let alone how it relates to technology
Are you holding a fantasy world to real life science discoveries?
that said, he is exploring with a pod, maybe it explained things to him?
Part of me also wonders ||whether we'll end up encountering Accord, and if she's related to this particular seed||
we already know that they don't know about stuff like bacteria yet, so... yes?
There was a spell called virus in 14, wasn't there?
ye
If ||Accord's model || hasn't been mined, yet. Then I assume we won't see her soon. Or at least until a new batch of quests.
Virus and one other spell have been merged into Addle.
no, virus was just renamed
didn't virus only reduce INT? I'm sure we also had a MND debuff
no virus (with talent) reduced both
also "virus" comes from an old word for poison, so just having a spell named after it wouldn't necessarily mean they know what a "virus" is in the context of disease

why whm version of it was always shit version. and you'd only really want the smn/sch to do it
it's not a huge deal it's just
Yeah, I can just Hope
it's a moment where you can tell they wrote it under the assumption the player would understand without considering whether or not it would make sense in-story
actually i'm misremembering. Virus was split into addle/feint effectively. Because Virus reduced str/dex initially and the trait added int/min
Huh.
its easy enough to hand wave though, since he did take a pod with him. the pod iirc is capable of communication
Jet, honestly. Why do you insist on holding the lore to actual science discoveries when they have the Ancients with their super knowledge and Allag. Surely they know what a virus is.
And they can make the connection to a metaphor.
Allag would probably know what a virus is, yes
but Allag knew a lot of stuff that has since been lost
why do people apply real world science and timelines of discoveries to fantasy anyways 
ffs we have super advanced technology in this game
If there is a spell called Virus, then they know what viruses do.
stares in sharlayan
Does not refute my point.
eorzea pandemic mini arc that twins dad cures in endwalker confirmed
it does though
just having a spell called "virus" doesn't specifically mean they know about little packets of rna that infect peoples' cells to replicate
do they need to?
You're being silly about this. 
Virus bad, computer virus is also bad
ahh, pedantry
i mean i already said several times that it's not even a big deal
A pandemic to cull the cat thots plz
and you're the one coming up with all these reasons they could know what a virus is even though they haven't even figured out bacteria yet
i am not going to let my boy die that way
instead of just "hey maybe the writers accidentally used a modern term that the people of hydaelyn probably wouldn't understand"
We are going to cause it by bringing alien shit with us from The First
But yeah the tree in the fringes is just compared to the guardian tree in Central Shroud and that it was said to house a powerful elemental before the tree uh....drank too much Black Rose
poisoned tree
Oh shit wrong channel
Well we finally have an explanation for why 2B and 9s are good guys in this game now at least that's nice
Y’all hear about the data mine of the nier logs howyall feel about them
I feel like not reading them ahead of time
why would i spoil myself?
Bit ironic considering the channel we're in. Huh...
hey it's 5.5 spoilers not 5.56 spoilers
yea but not all the logs are out 
That makes sense
Oh can you like hmu because I'm bored of waiting tbh
Dm me if need be ya kno
data mine 
If they're talking about the weekly quest, it's on garland. The weekly messages from konogg has to be datamined tho since it's not on garland
Or they know what a slimy, virulent poison is.
virus did not always refer to a dna-infection germ, it once just meant poison or slime
Aurum Vale is really just virustown
All of it just chillin trying to live their lives and we kick down the door going 'TIME FOR SOME HORTICULTURE' and that just makes them go 'rude'
what nier logs
Weekly quests
the start of aurum vale is the most fun part of it as it either goes smoothly or you go through 4 tanks, great fun
it's pretty smooth if you make a beeline for the first boss by hugging the left side
It's smother if you rp walk along the side and fight nothing.
So neat detail, after finishing Tower at Paradigm's Breach, the list of currently active YoRHa androids updates to state all of them are offline:
This is what it was after Puppet's Bunker:
are we sure that krile is gonna be back soon from sharlayan or not really?
Idk, we are going there in 6.0 so we'll be seeing her soon regardless
itll be funny if fandaniel blows it up in 5.56 just to spite everyone that wants to go there
probably some "oh no something happened in sharlyan, we should go look for krile"
to kickstart 6.0
do you think we'll find out in fanfest if we are definitely going to sharlayan, could be a bait for all we know atm
or we'll find out that sharlayan was founded by ascians because we cant have anything in this game that isnt an ascian plot
Yeah, I noticed that too later - those are the two Operator-types we fight in paradigm's breach
iirc the one with the hood becomes jack, the one with the hat becomes hansel and gretel
Anyone figure out any easter egg behind their designations?
I'm still wondering as to what the "P" designation means - maybe protector or "purified" or something?
puppet
ah
it's weird that the operators were denoted as -P then, while 2P wasn't - though she could've just been lying
YoRHa No. 2 Type - P(uppet)
Yes
Anyone have a chat link the data mining from 5.5? Trying to get one of the images
I always assumed the operator designation is simply a relic of past models. Like A2. But the operators are still in full use.
Also, wondering why there were so many named/numbered operator types in the raids
Wanted to ask have we seen what this is for yet?
maybe
It's the only icon found that I can't think what it could be,
Someone said 'possible new teleport icon' but idk
probably a lost action tbh
1 sec,
Here lie the hopes and dreams of a Scholor.
Looks like butterflies
The bear is definitely a mount or transformation action
Really just the butterfly that's gotta be a Lost Action or a slipped EW icon.
It's probably the polar bears action
If it's a lost action, wouldn't there be more? Weird to just have 1 lost action in the coding
They might have just forgotten to remove it. Not the first time they put in something early.

Coulda said it was an extra blue mage action and I would be fooled
Might also be
Maybe the real extra Blue Mage action is the friends we made along the way
or it's just a placeholder
Might be instance-related actions like the nier ones, from Bozja
something about Ice Crystal thing
||The polar bear mount from summer event.||
The Purple icon could be a fashion item
Im more into the pizza emote 
tbh, maybe it could be sch related 
Maybe pizza the food will actually have a model and not just another bread roll placeholder
kinda looks like the art of war icon
Oh...the pizza icon might be part of that as well then
idk, just the first thing my mind went to
the one thing SCHs have perfected - The Art of Depression

My friend said something about it being a teleport icon, which would be awesome 
But I doubt we will get anything special like that till after/during 6.0
looks like a butterfly to me
It IS a butterfly,
But the question is, what is the icon for
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/742643125981413447/836696535239753799/unknown.png
If it isn't used in the game yet I'll wait till 5.55
crackpot theory : this is the new AOE that replaces Art of War
Could be a duty action for Lunar Ravana since it looks like a little butterfly and Ravana loves his butterflies
Dont worry about it. You'll see it when its time
Plot twist YOU are actually lunar ravana
It's on the side with duty actions so obviously not a emote
!action art of war
Man imagine if this is just a cooler art of war lol
it could be art of war II 
Scholar needs it to look cool
I also doubt it’s art of war 2 but it’s funny to imagine yknow
honestly i don't understand why sch effects don't go more into the butterfly thing anyways
because most of it is Nymian military magic
SCH isn't even the right name for the job. Should be (War) Tactician
What a lame ass thing to base a job around
then they need more tacticool effects 
COME HELLS OR HIGH WATER
Hi, I just start the game for the first time today and i have a little question: Did i must do all secondary quest? Or only the history please? 🙂
a lot of the side quests are just around as filler lore for areas. there's not anything that's must know from a side quest (not associated with unlockable content)
Ok ok thx a lot !
There are butterflies in the same scene with the glowing figure outside Keeper of the Lake in the trailer.
hmm, they don't really look the same tho
The other possibility is a duty action against Lunar Ravana
those're crystals in the distance,
I'll tell you what, that pair in the middle solidly look like butterfly wings tho
but they don't move in the shot, beyond the slight panning to reveal the figure
We are gonna become Lunar odin
And now that we can filter out a bit more from Part 1 and Part 2, I would imagine the Carteneau instance goes: G'raha and Alisaie v Ravana, Urianger and Thancred v Odin, Estinien and us v Ifrit.
final battle atop the Heliodrome as well, 
Urianger thancred and yshtola vs odin
I'm gonna assume alphanaud is with graha and alisaie
Wol doesn't need a healer with them. We carried by brilliant conviction
we see Hydaelyn use her power to summon a Primal Venat
callin it now.
Chops a piece of herself off and reforms it into Venat
So she pulls an elidibus
That's what the gummint wants us to think
Those are literally the crystals from mor dhona that have been there since forever
They're trying to cover up what's happening at Area 51
silvertear is area 51 with big ass dragon dude
Exactly
Lunar Primals are actually all made by hydaelyn and shes actually evil and Fandaniel is actually her in man
No that happens at the end of EW and danfaniel is in both z and h
Venta's group caused the finla days mwhahahahaah
The real Fandaniel were the dicks we beat along the way
i still have it in my head that he's way more involved with something else then just burn the world.
it seems to be a façade to me
Dis out of context
I saw that cal
Well yes, he also wants to flood it, demolish it, blow it up, and then do the riverdance on the largest chunk.
the gif tab didn't show any bottom text 
And he's probably gonna get what he wants in the end anyway.
so....
please square let us brutally kill him the way we did emet but while he is in his humanoid form. give us a stormblood blood cough effect. please
my point being is he wants to die. Him dying is him winning in a weird way.
so, we must seal his ass on another planet
kill zodiark, seal him inside zodiarks corpse, in the moon 
better if zodis heart contains the memories of the lost ancients so he can suffer watching his friends die over and over 
thats if Fandan had freinds.
for all we know he's part of the original problem
not as much an attack as the butterfly adds in ravana
The moon kana and spirit kana
are u sure those are butterflies and not crystals from far away
its swamp gas reflecting the light from Menphina
There's that butterfly attack from kugane trial as well
yeah although i dont think 5.56 msq will have much to do with othard zones
5.55 and there is a tower in othard so I wouldn't be surprised if they had stuff there
I imagine fandan end game he wanted it to happen in 5.56 but somthing happens that sets it back to 6.0
Fandans plan probably involves having the Lunar primals being destroyed over and over again
And we'll see that he wants that in 5.55
The plan is to lure us into going to Garlemald.
Any plan that doesn't involve an endgame of 'And then Zenos and WoL have a sick rad battle' won't get Zenos' support.
Zenos was pretty upset about Lunar Bahamut being destroyed so I don't think that's supposed to happen.
I wonder if that anger is more
"Well you made me change my plans by coming into my life and you can't even fucking do a good job?"
My interpretation was that Zenos is annoyed that all this waiting around is being met with Fannydan being incompetent.
Yea but that's bahamut. Those worshipers are harder to find
OKAY
In before Lunar Ifrit and Lunar Ravana being destroyed leads to a stinger where Zenos goes "You know what, get fucked, I'm done with you" and kills FD
Nah
If that happens it'll be because FD wants it to
FD isn't Aizen
that we know of
I'm not saying that as a "FD is a master puppeteer" thing, I'm saying that as a "Fandaniel has a baseline level of competency" thing.
Plus EW has fandan still seemingly working with zenos
And then FD chuckles and the army of Solus clones become story important
Oh no
Though I dont know if Ishikawa could write a Aizen type character?

i dunno im probably being stupid xD
Just fill 'em with Voidsent
Seriously those clones HAVE to be getting used
But what power would they have
Felt like a big Chekhov's gun
They're clones
Idk, what Void said sounded good
Dungeon mobs, please look forward to it
Well I think the plan was more 'use Lunar Bahamut to motivate the WoL to coming to my bedroom fighttown' but then we killed Loonie B so you know.
Stone I mean
I mean Zenos knows we're on the way.
Void Lich a little too edgy, even for me
The solus clones will be a beast tribe
The new job is puppet master and the clones are v his puppets
Although Stone Void has a neat ring to it
I'm tired :(
Wheres the pic of the lala emet again
the clones are just emet's alternate accounts and Fandan prob shacked them

@teal geyser What's the worst that could happen?
Also yet another reference to SPQR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aulus_Cornelius_Cossus_Arvina
Aulus Cornelius Cossus Arvina was a Roman politician and general who served as both consul and Magister Equitum twice, and Dictator once in the mid 4th century BC.
Very cursed
HAHAHA YES
oh right, embeds are broke
Wow.
I don't get it, it's just a still of Limsa with the theme playing.
if only garo got the same treatment
Garo didn't have sexy big boob/butt outfits, unfortunately.
garo has multiple main villains that have their boobs out full frontal
uhh this channel is still a thing?
For some reason
mods and mentors said because 5.55 is so soon and fanfest coming as well
Makes sense
patch-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-spoilers
probably something like 5.55Spoiler/Fanfest discussion
5.55 is soon? 😮
may ™️
ouo
OuO
So basically this channel is just better #archived-lore-spoilers until sometime in June.


Lore spoilers unchained.
15 seconds is 5 seconds too many and they know it!
Lore Shitposts

Here we shall post big slappy boys!
Wish the devs would've been at least a bit sloppy and leave Zadnor stuff in the base patch
I want to see the weapons
Though I guess the armor above all
man i wish we get a outfit that looks similar to zenos second outfit with suit and hanging jacket
we will hopefully get more garlean gear in 6.0
Considering we may have a dungeon in Garlemald I wager the set we get there will be very much inspired
We're absolutely getting a dungeon in Garlemald.
At least one. Before Lv. 90 that is.
the more pressing question is whether we'll get anything other than that one dungeon
If we don't fight Zenos in Garlemald I'll be very disappointed. I can't imagine we'd be "dancing round the pyre" on the moon you know?
Would prefer to fight in the destruction to really feel the weight of the fight
First Lv. 90 trial in Garlemad. Second Lv. 90 trial and final boss on the moon
The pyre is the planet and the moon is always dancing around it
we can't dance around the pyre on the moon because there's no oxygen 
No that's fucking stupid
level 89 trial but also
lance stole the joke i was gonna make so i had to come up with a different one
keep in mind Zenos did say he was gonna gorge himself upon the - oh wait
He said around the pyre not in the pyre or on it 
I don't see Zenos being the 2nd trial, ngl
Cal didn't watch the trailer nvm
On my dick
Ring Around the Pyre
I'm outtie anyway dw continue
FLESH PILLAR

he said he's gonna drink of a sea of souls and gorge himself upon the darkened moon
a sea of souls
Which literally means, he will take over Hydaelyn and Zodiark
More like dorkened moon
Because a dork is a whale penis

What is that?
hey romm
please do not
you are all at my mercy. i will post longface if my demands are not met.
pls 
first, i declare today International Zenos Day.
What demands?
all rise for the Big Slappy Anthem
Ruh roh, rommy's gone Rampant
number one victory royale
rhalgr's reach we bouta get down
ten kills on the floor right now
fordola killing meffrid now
y'shtola goes down
lyse attacks me, and pipin inbound
concentrativity takes them out see
warrior of light make me horny
take me to shinryu to fight the wol today
you can take the storm and swell but not ame
i really love to
fight fight with you
we can tower above the gods
That's it, that's the anthem.
A song based on parody based on a song this is too deep
garlean boy
Kanye would be proud
Estelle deserves better than this 😔
delete kanye
Soul Chuggin' Jug
Ok, will do soon
the rogue kanye must be destroyed to restore the harmony of kanye north, kanye south, and kanye east
the traitor seeks to harness the pour of the four kanyes
You’re only gonna make things worse
good
Uh oh
I will absorb the power of the four Kanyes
Then what are you gonna make Garlean Boy a smash hit?
yes
I cant argue with that
She will gorge herself on countless Kanyes.
Is Kanye on the moon?
She take me tomeys when I'm in need
Yeah, she's a frightnin' friend indeed
Oh, she's a gil digger
Rowena's town, that digs on me
An instant classic
I’d pin it if this channel wasn’t temporary
honestly my favored one is the one I did for Vauthry
purely because I managed to use Radisca's Round in a verse and make it make sense

I wonder how Garleans in paris will sound like
number one victory royale
yeah eulmore we bouta get down
sin eaters in a swarm right now
they just wiped out radisca's round
that man just got downed
ardbert can't help so we're heading westbound
look at lyna, now she's crying
taunt the sinners while i'm flying
take me to mt. gulg to eat some meol today
you can pet forgiven obscenity but not that way
i really want to
eat meol with you
we can be pro lightwardens


Everything changed when the Kanye nation attacked
There can be only one.
Kanye-Senna
ye
Glue
Watching you and uour friends try to figure out a system update is funnnnyy
small part of a much larger shitpost that's killing me to make.
please enjoy it!!!
Did someone hack that in or something
apparently people are already digging
This was datamined a while back it’s the pre order bonus
Ik it was on garland tools
ah ok
hah. moon.
is all items like this regarding pre order items earrings?
There is a 3rd party tool that let's people Link items that are unreleased
Its how people linked things like blue mage soul stone before it released
I imagine that's probably not a good idea to go flaunting around in game
Yeah I've seen people linking the Cruise Chaser mount consumable ingame as if they are just begging to get in trouble
Iirc you can get perma'd for linking unreleased stuff using third party tools
It makes sense as just because a file exists ingame does not mean SE are ready to release it soon. Things can change at a moment's notice
Rip old Cerberus
Right? That's a good example
The data clearly displayed it as a 4-seater until it actually got implemented... as a single ride mount
That the player awkwardly stands on.
I believe it's still a four seater but the players aren't carried in the mouth anymore
Just ride on top
It is a 4 seater
Wait what? I have never seen more than 1 player on one before. I'm shocked haha
Well I get that, all multi-seat mounts are like that. I just haven't actually seen more than one player on one before.
Ah
So much so that I was under the impression it was a solo mount
Glad I was wrong there.
CC according to files is a 2 seater. Tho the actual size of it is fuckin massive
Theres room for 4 but its 2
Room for 8
Still crossing my fingers it is added for FanFest
ffxiv collect says is 4 seater
oh, not cerberus. cruise chaser
i can't read im stupid 
The fanfest mount is the whale. CC is something we dont know from what. But we know it isn't pvp
tbh this isn't really the first time they've done that. the normal whale mount could probably seat 4 to, but its a 2 seater
could be the fanfest map event
People speculate it'd be tied to the limited mogtome event, or maps yeah
we have the datamined list for the next moogle event
We all know about the Lunar Whale though yeah
its not the moogle tome event
Best worst case. You need to win a community event to get it. Which means every like 3 months 100 people can win it
It's gonna be from Zadnor
Also it's not moogle tome as kael said
Oh we have the mogtome list?
Best case it's a reward in zadnor
like not contest, Yoshi already mentioned that Zadnor would have an item EVERYBODY would want
Is it.... any good?
And who doesn't want Cruise Chaser?
Ah, yeah if that is the case Zadnor makes sense. It'd be the new Ozma
Mogtome we know through datamine. Go to that link and you'll see it
Cruise Chaser in zadnor might not make narrative sense
Technically cerberus is the bozjan ozma. But CC would probably be a mount reward in Zadnor.
But... sometimes... 'fuck it, have a cool thing'
CC item is stated to be untradeable and unique tho. So it might be a achievement in 5.55 and not a loot box. Or it could be from some chest drop in 5.55
i mean does cerberus really make sense for DRS?
i mean
final dungeon chest drop
dino horn from anemos was untradeable, just not unique iirc
It should of been unique hate getting duplicates of the dino
I will not rest till I have CC
and every relic, but I mean as long as I don't have to do DR 255 times AGAIN that's easy
question is though....will it have forward and back as its music
Yes kael it does
As an FFIX fan getting Ozma was a must. Cruise Chaser will be no different
good, cos i was gonna say. if it didn't...it would be a fucking sin
Sadly it isnt the primals forward and back like I wanted. But I mean need a reason to buy the primals albums cant have all of them in 14
nah borderless 
im so tired of borderless. i hope that we get a new generic mount song with endwalkers we won't
Or the ability to change from a pool of songs
Borderless was supposed to be a cool special theme since it's a remix of middy theme
Wonder what excuse they'll give us to fly on the moon
Twintania and Behemoth need to both play Thunderer when you ride them. Fenrir should play snowcloak or gold saucer theme
Zodiark
Moon trolley
There should be a 8th lanner that plays the warring triad theme and have all the triad glows. And the warring lanner name changed to fiend lanner. And play the fiend
I believe if brought to sokens attention he will change up mount themes and give them more unique themes
it was already brought to soken's attention though for fiend
and the mount theme variety in general has also already been brought up
iirc yoshi-p said there's only so much space
What happened to the ARR generic mount theme that disappeared
i mean still exists 🤷♀️
a rider's boon and borderless were basically ground mount generic music and flying mount generic music
but since everything is flying now all new mounts that have generic music are borderless
I think a issue is how its worded
Sometimes the way people word questions will often times result different answers. Like nothing wrong with boarderless it was just a mistake using it for every fuckin mount. And should of been Middy only theme.
=_= i can't find yoshi-p comments but I KNOW it was asked and answered before
wait, mounts besides middy use Borderless?
it's a remix of Primogenitor, why would anyone else use it 
Imagine being that blissfully ignorant not knowing borderless is used on everything I can tell you don't use Mount music ever
At least we get some cool ones
Like the hollween theem for the eyeball
i wanna say it was a QnA with soken but i'm not entirely certain
i wish the mount from a12s played Rise instead of moebius
If anything soken should put the Dueling theme from pvp as the generic mount music. Or make a new remix of like a fan favorite song.
so i found someone else's comment about it, but t hey don't like the source for it
Yoshi has made comments a few times that make it sound like all the different mount music tracks are loaded at once whenever you're in a zone, and changing mounts just mutes everything except the appropriate one. So they have a finite amount of space to put separate tracks, and thus are saving what space IS there for things like raid mounts, trial mounts, etc.
sounds like it was mentioned during a LL but i can't find anything in #translations-and-liveletters
I have no game developer so of course I have zero knowledge on how things work but I feel like if it's hard to change Mount music that is probably not a good thing
Don't forget, spaghetti code
this is really fucking frustrating
OwO
who's ready for the new melee job tomorrow
i am
You mean the limited melee class
I'm ready for Chemist yes
if it's chemist i'll be surprised
So would I
Yoshi-p playing the long game
isn't the new melee job supposed to use the maiming set?
yes
Though dont know what it would have to do with death
Yeah maiming, Very likely scythe using
it's going to be necromancer xD
Fuckign chemist
ngl I'll feel a bit sad about DRG not having unique armor anymore but oh well
Play ninja
INB4 hammer
drg still could
It'll be a god send since i wont have only one job using the damn armor set
i hope theres more better maiming style
what do you mean
i dont like most of the maiming sets looks
Man I hope they show final fantasy fourteen shadowbringers at fanfest
they will
when does it start?
i wonder what shadowbringers will bring us
tomorrow 6pm pst
Reeeeaaaaaaaaaperrrrrrrrrrr
it's in #translations-and-liveletters
I'm betting the new class uses nunchucks
Will they announce vanilla FFXIV?
haha no
no
imagine its another lesser known ff job
it's a joke folks
Man I cant wait for the YoshiP exclusive figures to go on sale
uwu
im not ready.
because i have to choose between the fanfest and the pso2 ng beta
why not both
fanfest is only on two days
use 2 monitors
thought about it but..... reee
play the beta
but ffxiv > pso2
Woah new chat
why does it have the start at the exact same time T^T
because it's friday night
Geomancer announcement, 1.0 classic, and bangaa race incoming 😎
nah this is NGS. NGS is more fun from what ive played of it
the music on the menu is pretty T^T
soon
Also lunar whale available in just over 12hrs
Gross
whats gross?
The incoming price of the lunar whale
A small price to pay to crash PS3s and low-end pcs
oh this place is up
any leak or info about the price on the whale?
Produced by Garlond Ironworks based on mysterious tales from a distant land, it not only resembles a whale on the outside, but shares its voluminous belly. With enough room for the pilot and seven passengers, it stands─or rather, floats─in a class of its own.
Digital Fan Festival (2021) (Premium)
looking forward to the wild theories 
!item lunar whale identification key
A thin rectangular piece of what appears to be cermet. Placing it near the Lunar Whale will grant you access to its voluminous belly, which is not nearly as awful as it may sound.
Digital Fan Festival (2021) (Premium)
so no word on price ok
Yea we wont know price until its on mogstation
You team up with Sam and Dean Winchester to take down God Zenos with a special doctor who collab
Which is in 12hrs 13m (if my math is right)
guy can always hope. i'm figuring it's gonna be very high and honestly betting that's why its price was not released early, so fanfest hype can drown out any frustration lol
Remind me do pre orders go up the same day as the last fanfest?
Considering everyone just disappears into the mount id be annoyed if its an exorbitant amount. At most 70 dollars, but thats still ehh
That’s how it’s been the last couple times

What happened with 2019
What didnt happen at fanfest 2019
I- no really, what happened
Oh yeah the audio problems at the start of the keynote lawl
Some people had a rough time preordering, especially the collector’s Ed.
@maiden lodge The trailer for the lunar whale has a remix of that
Audio breaking peoples ears, no healer, race fiasco, etc
There's a trailer?!

Thankyouthankyouthankyou
IV was one of my favorite ff, 2nd to ffx
Okay that gave me the tingles
Also I find it funny the ironworks created the lunar whale
That looks like Nero's side of the business
This was so fuckin hype when it got announced
'I made the airship for the scions, the Excelsior!' 'Oh... that's quaint cid...' goes off to make a spaceship
Home
oh i can actually stay up fgor it thats awesome
Lunar whale....lunar primals...Bismark is a whale... lunar whale is Bismark 
The real question is what the collectors edition mount will be
ah yes the 3am fanfest
A star destroyer
I need to practice......I was right ! I was RIGHT ! I WAS RIGHT !
Who needs sleep right 
true 
I am interested to see more sage...my heads been brainstorming ideas for their Shields.... Like "augmenting" them to give them effects when they break like TBN
IM DANCIN NAKED LERS GOOOO
@bold condor I made a similar shitpost on another discord. But instead its Vitiate from SWTOR and he caused the final days and will be the final boss.
Final boss is actually the same fight from ass creed 2
lore too deep, joke would've been lost
the final boss is Ganondorf, he was controlling Zenos the whole time
final boss is the moon from majora's mask
The blade of Light is just the helix sword
Will They Fix Alisiae's Double Hair Ties In The Full Trailer: the most important question
nah
The second hair tie symbolically represents || Lyse after she dies ||
@unique verge you still think new job is not Scythe?
Hi everyone,
Are there any Rules about Re-Streams from the Live Event? :sadcarby:
like streaming it while they are or?
Nope
What time Eastern time for start of famfest?
why is this channel NSFW 
because discord doesn't have a spoiler tag thing for channels
so nsfw tag is used as a "HEY ARE YOU SURE YOU WANNA BE IN HERE" barrier
I thought it meant not safe for wedgies
6 West coast, 9 east coast
PM
Discord really is made by cooders cause they're lazy as shit
i got bored
memish bingo sheet
what mascot is this?
or perhaps its a reference to something
beavers nice lol
those are beavers
“Is it ok to eat these sandwiches made by the crystal exarch?”
I don't see audio problem in the bingo
No music in the trailer just loud booms
some of these things we would not hear about in fanfest stream 
bass boosted force lighting
At long last this channel ishere
I mean you could get a "Spoil me" role, that has access to this channel
that's way more work than necessary, especially for a channel that's only active for a few weeks
Or just don't come into the channel
True dat, could be used for #archived-lore-spoilers too, and put the role in #831381743927033906
also or...discord could just make two different things for different purposes instead of forcing stupid ways of dealing with spoilers
Besides, people posting on spoilery stuff kinda should know what they're getting into
dont think like a manager thats not on the floor and has to deal with moves every damn day
think like an empolyee
Ok I hate my life and I drink my problems away
im tired of my manager if you couldnt tell
I mean who isn't
Last time I wasn't tired of a supervisor was when I had the powers of an acting supervisor.
Seems like management is lacking a lot of places
6.0 is actually just a Yakuza game.
dance, sing and pachinko ?
cant wait to sing baka mitai again
Don’t forget micro circuit
Dragon Kart racing
Yakuza also has mahjong in it 
Mahjong, Poker, Black jack, dartz
things ive never touched when i played the games 
Yakuza crossover in 7.0
I play all the minigames
It's ok no one play mahjong
atleast Yakuza you have a Cheat button for Mahjong for people who don't want to learn it
cba to play mahjong and shogi
the final boss of 6.0 will take place ontop of a big tower
lmao
are we fighting shirtless ?
time to just tiger drop the final boss
Zenos everywhere system
Your just doing a dungeon, and then Zenos invades you at the final boss
You mean Zenos invade like in dark soul pvp
Zenos performs a backstab on you while your afk waiting for your healer to stop taking care of their cat
Zenos does the well, what is it? emote.
its funny, the Femroe /welcome emote looks very much like "Well, What is it"
giantdad pose
Duuude, Zenos' new weapon will be a chaos zweihander
ok i just wanna confirm since i'm bad w/ timezones and such
does the fanfest start tonight or tomorrow
Tomorrow
i wish he had used a pop filter
Better beards or butt slider plz yoship
the lack of pop filtering is a key part of the shitpost aesthetic
inb4 new job
no
yes
whatever it turns out to be, I hope its new
The new job better have cupholders
new job smell
One of the boss themes in 6.0 is going to be something that people will find very unfitting but will become a classic. Its gonna be some Dubstep music with like Aztec noises and Rap singing.
The new, stinki melee smell
can i have him
yes
reaper is just a farmer turned into a battle job
hades isnt my kind of game but its art style is so good
same kael
WHA
Rogue likes aren't for everyone
Fuck is a rogue like
