I will say this, when you can get past the bullshit, it's good content. Just did the first SB dungeon and had a great time.

this is the part that's killing me, I was not really into the overall aesthetic of heavensward and everything in stormblood looks so good and I just have to like... sit here and stare at the 90k screen

We can dream. I don't blame the developers for much, I blame the lack of a stress test(protip this is the stress test) and the abysmal communication. Mostly the communication. I haven't been that irked by it either because I feel like there's so many other things you can be doing to progress, but not being able to at least get in the new zones is pretty disappointing.

Just got a 90006 when leaving an instance, that's a first for me.

Also, what are the odds the 4.0 relics require Crystal Sands/Umbrite? Not sure what to spend poetics on for the moment.

He's sad you feel that way, but is at least happy to know you'll speak your mind on the matter.

Catgirl Japan is extremely good, unfortunately also lacking in especially many catgirls or horngirls. Mostly just lame humans.

Because it is still broken just less so. It still took me 3 tries to get through Pippin this morning, but at least I was able to get through it.

Finally beat Pipin. Savage raiding is a lot more difficult than I thought.

They give you a lot more dialogue choices this time around, or at least that's what it feels like. I dig it.

Is there a way to increase just the dialogue boxes in the UI? All the other UI parts are fine just those boxes are tiny on a PS4.

Virtual Mouse, right click the dialogue, continue holding right trigger, left click (trigger) to select scaling + size options.

The side quests this expansion are mostly good. They're more like short stories and thus far I'm actually enjoying doing them. Quarry Grandpa rules.

Almost all of them still lack actual quest texts though. I feel like it has to be unintended because it's real bizarre, especially since every quest that has a picture on it updates with text just like normal. I'm one of the 10 people who read quest texts so it's a surprisingly major bummer for me.

I wonder if it's the same in languages other than English.

Now that I can finally get past Father & Son, geez, the plot for Stormblood is already shaping up to be way better than Heavensward's. The Garlean Empire this time around is actually very hateworthy and I'm already looking forward to mounting the villains' heads on the end of my sword.

is the "get a piece of gear you don't have yet from completing a dungeon" thing just for HW dungeons, or stormblood too?

The patch notes denote the change as affecting 3.x and 4.x, and they specifically mention lv61-69 dungeons in addition to the lv51-59 ones.

Just curious. Does this apply even if you aren't actually the "proper" levelof the dungeon? I got Dusk Vigil (is the HW Vigil, right?) yesterday in LDR, but I wasn't paying attention.

At the Great Melee in Heavensward, does everyone fight Raubahn at the end or is it GC specific?
