I love the FF14 poster who was mad that the game kept implying that your character loves to go on adventures because they roleplayed their character as a reluctant adventurer who just wanted to settle down. That poor catgirl who just wanted to go fishing and was forced to save the world 7 times...

I have a real-life friend who's really into FFXIV roleplaying and it was interesting to talk to her about it, since I don't really do any of it. (I guess I passively get in my character's headspace when I'm doing story stuff or whatever but I don't to actual RP.)

I was curious how the RP community deals with the really prominent story and every character being the Warrior of Light and the answer is: they don't. It's just compartmentalized. Sure, any given RPer's character is the Warrior of Light when they're playing the story, but then they have a different version of their character with a different background and story and stuff who they actually RP as with other players. Some communities treat the main story as something that's happening in the world but that they aren't necessarily involved with, others just ignore it entirely.

Just as good as the one guy who didn't want to upgrade to White Mage cause they roleplayed that Kan-E-Sanna broke their dad's kneecaps.

Then abandoned all that for the Unicorn mount even though they don't need to be a White Mage for that.

Moofia posts in the OF so it still tracks (in fact he posted about how we are worse for discussing the game than reddit).

Given Cythereal is a WoW refugee who hated the constant war storyline I can understand her. That said expecting a FF JRPG to not infinitely escalate is not very farsighted.

I used to play a lot of San Francisco Rush 2 on the N64, and that game had collectable Mountain Dew cans. Actually it was just called Rush 2, because you went all over USA, not just SF. Anyways, Dew cans. Every level had 4 hidden Dew cans that you seek and jump your way to. Often at the end of a long ramp, or way off in a remote corner that no one would ever drive by normally. If you got all 4, then you could drive the secret Mountain Dew formula 1 car that had the best stats. But you could only drive it for that level; you had to find them for each stage. It was cool driving the Dewmobile and you'd win every race with it. But since we didn't own a N64 save pak at the time, we'd lose the car every time we shut the game off.

It wasn't a huge loss, since i never bothered to do any racing in that game. I spent most of my time doing tricks in the stunt course instead.

Even as a huge dew head and member of dew nation. There's too many drat flavors coming out. I thought it was nuts when KFC and Dollar General both got one, but now it's LTO one and exclusives and energy drinks. It's diluting the brand.

I used to drink mtn dew when I was a preteen, and later there was a schoolyard rumour that the ‘dew had chemicals in it that would shrink your penis, but at the time I didn’t believe it and kept drinking. Huge regrets now ofc

I know that feel. LIke as a kid you chugged soda like nothing. But then you look at how much sugar is in a soda can and its like loving hell 70 to 80 percent of your sugar DV already.
