Obviously it didn't lag, if it lagged with a 3080 either there's something real wrong with my card or I'm playing 1.0.

Oh yeah, I saw in Limsa it dropped to an steady 80 FPS, but good to know I can cap even cities. Although I'm gonna recheck some settings since Aglaia dropped to 120 FPS for some moments and that's unacceptable now /s

Visited a few restaurants to see what people do with housing, and they didn't take gil. I run an RP venue (a pharmacy/bookshop hybrid, basically 'one-stop shop for when your character needs someone smart to move the plot forward'), and while I've never demanded any money and take pains to make sure people know they don't have to pay for anything, some people do just to show thanks for good RP or a good venue, basically a tip jar. I'm doing all this for fun, I don't care about money. I wouldn't say I'm making a lot of gil off it, but I'm definitely in the market for a Medium or Large plot in part because of those tips.

Most RP venues will not ask for gil, they just provide a space for people to have fun with RP. Sometimes cafes and such will ask for a payment for drinks/food, but that tends to be a few hundred to a few thousand gil at most. Usually a gil transfer wil be mentioned in the RP without any actual gil changing hands. As mentioned tips are the main ways these venues get gil. Though there are places where you can hire someone to sit and chat with you, or provide a service like a tea ceremony or something. Those do tend to ask for gil so they can pay their staff. ERP venues are a bit different, there can be costs for the private room and costs for the time of whoever you've hired. Though even here there are places where they just let the customer decide what they want to pay (if they want to pay at all). It's all very dependent on the person running the place.

Big venues also run auctions where you can hire people to decorate your house/craft for you/rp with you/erp with you/whatever service someone can come up with to sell and those cost gil that the house takes a cut of (the rest goes to the person selling the service).

Those communities thrive by basically being an underground scene and know that if they get overexposed their hobby could be jeopardized.

GiantRockFromSpace posted:Mhm, I just let GeForce Experience sort out my settings, then disabled low poly LOD (I want less pop in!) and that's that. Probably it's the character number? Since it was night Limsa wasn't as crowded as usual and that does affect a lot of FPS. Oh, I don't think GeForce Experience necessarily maxes out all the settings. I'll give it a shot, though, if it looks good!

Subjunctive posted:Oh, I don't think GeForce Experience necessarily maxes out all the settings. I'll give it a shot, though, if it looks good! Nah, it doesn't, it adjusts based on presets: it turns on Low poly LOD even on my 3080 since it's a free boost (despite inducing popin which I find annoying). But it's a quick way to set up your settings based on your card. I still gotta check some settings to make sure stuff like Aglaia doesn't strain too much, once the hail and thunder stops... Edit: Hang on, forgot about a possible CPU bottleneck since that can also affect performance. I have a i7-12700kf so no problems there, but if yours is weaker it would make sense for a place with lots of models to run worse.

Xerophyte posted:Squeenix's issue with the nightclub people likely isn't "they use 3rd party mods" as much as it is "they provide and advertise phone sex services in our video game". There are marketing departments trying to shape the public perception of FF14, and the Rain Nightclub is far away from what they want that perception to be. From their perspective this is someone using the Squeenix & FF names and logos to anti-advertise their game. They're 100% fine with ERP in private spaces, as long as everyone's consenting. Directly from their Prohibited Activities: quote:Example 2 Now, the chance of getting a report if they openly ERP during the event is pretty high since there's no heads up given ahead of time if someone's only aware if the billboard, which would normally make me think they'd be keeping it private only during the duration of the event. With what's shown up, though, I'm less certain they're planning that carefully now.

Yes, the Levelieur fortune was their financial backing, but I'm pretty sure (supposition) only Tataru knew that and she wasn't telling. We learn that Ameliance was the one funneling the fortune to them long after the incident. The comedy is exactly that though: Alphinaud comes from a family where money is no object and he's never really had the cause to consider the price of things. Just because you have money doesn't mean you can't be Bad With Money. And I think that's hil-arious. fake edit: The opening of the custom deliveries was the best though: Student: "Wow! This school is so cool! I can't wait to learn here!" Ameliance: "This is my house and your dorm." Student: Lethal levels of embarrassment and awe. WoL: "Yeah I had the same reaction."

That explains it. Yeah, watch Blues Brothers if you like good music and their style of humor. There's some great behind the scenes stories that pretty much all sum up as "I can't believe we got permission to do this." It's a love letter to music and Chicago.

Do not judge your system by its performance at Limsa's aetheryte. For your own good look at the ground and run away as fast as you can. Read nothing you see in your chat window.
