Bonfire Lit posted:Yeah, if you want to make specs a semi-permanent choice, you'll have to make them all similarly useful (and not have a trap spec like CUL). I'd rather they did away with the specializations though - they're not really interesting in itself and the "real" crafter barons already had an alt or two to cover all 8. CUL is a difficult one. It seems like if they make CUL specialization great then they're ultimately enhancing the consumable grind for raiding. I'm trying to think of interesting things they could do for CUL, because giving them the 4 star food that most people couldn't afford sure wasn't the answer. Sharkopath posted:She's the main character of the Bahamut raid. The game acknowledges your relationship if you either did part of it or finished it completely. Compared to most of the cast in ARR, she's actually getting poo poo done. Countblanc posted:Zhloe sucks because Zhloe refers to Zhloe in the third person forever and it's very tedious. I like the idea of the bonding system or whatever it's called, hopefully it's a bit more fleshed out in SB It's a reputation grind Am I crazy or did Gotetsu's VA start trying to sound like he had more of an Asian accent as the recent patch quests went on, compared to his introduction which was just full blown Scottish? nuru fucked around with this message at 18:08 on May 28, 2017 |

I've forgotten how to craft properly without using all my CP and getting nowhere. I have full HQ Ironworks so I can still button mash some HQs out though.

Thundarr posted:Old Middy voice really bothered me with just how long and drawn out the end of every single sentence was. With the new one I felt like at least I'd be able to hold a conversation with the guy. Cryptic and vaguely assholeish conversations, but still. I hope he keeps running commentary on events despite having no real personal connection to them. I think it'd be funny.

Alphinauds new VA is really good, it along with his story in HW pulled equal weight in making him a good character Tataru and Pipin are Fiora and Shulk from xenoblade respectively so the potato casting is on point

Most of HW being about Alphinaud making up for his inexperience-induced fuckup was okay but I'm ready for him to gently caress off to a corner forever now that Alisaie is in the main party.

I like that not only is it about Alphinaud trying to apologize for his mistakes, but it also includes everyone taking the piss out of him for existing.

Lemon-Lime posted:Everyone's VAs changed in HW. Nearly all of them change for the better, Alphinaud was jarring but ends up being real good, and tragically, the one character whose voice gets straight up worse is Merlwyb. I disagree if only because Merlwyb's ARR VA reminded me a lot of Fran from FFXII and I just do not like nasally-voices. My ears are all like 'SPEAK WITH YOUR MOUTH NOT YOUR NOSE GAWD.' Everyone did grow into their roles splendidly and I don't see any reason why they don't stay with this studio for the foreseeable future.

Thyrork posted:While I appreciate that the majority probably agrees with you, having FF9 be my darling means they're both awesome to me. So Alexander did keep up... mostly, even as the deck is stacked against it. Mide is forgettable, within the context of FF14 alone Bahamut is a huge deal, and Alex kinda feels like a victim of the ruthless dev cycle Heavensward had*. I think they did the best job they could have done with a time travel plot, although Mide really is the worst. I kept wanting someone to ask her how she got that scar and her response would be "What scar" and we find out that it's just the mark left from her running her finger over it all the time. The song that hits me the hardest is still Dragonsong/Contention. There was a lot more to the dragon war storyline than answers to me, mainly because I didn't play 1.0 and don't really care about what happened in it. It's really cool that they timed the music and everything for t13, but the song itself just doesn't evoke as much.

Fridurmus posted:I wonder if they should start doing an aggressive catching up mechanic with weapons. Nothing too crazy, but "oh hey you hit 60, here's a weapon that will at least let you keep doing something relative to everyone else". When SB comes, or in an early patch like 4.1, will likely include changes to the HW storyline loot to give you gear up to i240-260 similar to how the ARR storyline gives you i110 or so gear (and you get full i90 from the ARR job quests IIRC).

I'm thinking something like this for a Samurai glam. A bit of a Samurai Champloo style. But I may change my mind. They've said SAM will share gear with MNK, right? I may go full techno samurai and keep the Ironworks set for awhile. I'm assuming we're getting Magitek weapons for RDM and SAM, right? Everything except Coil and ARR/HW relics?
