Chocobo posted:Anyone have any suggestions for Endwalker alternatives until they sort out the queue issues? I was looking at meth or synthetic heroin? The Blue Reflection anime is, weirdly, very similar both in its emotional themes and the fantasy elements used to explore those themes

Ytlaya posted:I realized that there is in-game "proof" that the Warrior of Light is not a man. If the WoL - silent and stoic as they are known to be - was a man, then it does not make sense for Alphinaud to form a unique "big brother" relationship with Estinien. WoL as a sort of "big sister" figure to the twins just feels like it fits more. people can have two brothers

me thinking about dragoon changes: oh they just added an ogcd no big deal me playing dragoon: oh god the changes in cooldown times means that everything lines up by default, so every drift away from perfect is pure agony

Macaluso posted:Day number 6 in a row where I get disconnected between 4 and 7, effectively ending my night. Very cool this happens every single day. if it's that consistent, is there any possibility that some person or program on your network is loving with the internet every evening in some way? I don't know what that would mean, exactly, but that sucks so much it feels like trying to find the cause it worth it

I think a true fix to the 2002 issue probably requires rewriting the login client to the point where by the time they have it ready, the queues won't be an issue anymore. Right now it has the baffling decision for the client to close when it can't contact the server, rather than trying again. That just didn't matter before so there was no need to fix it (though I kind of judge them for not anticipating the problem). Unfortunately, it's just not the kind of thing they can deploy in a hotfix. Maybe it'll show up in 6.1?

Sinteres posted:Kind of related to that, is anyone planning on actually quitting the game now that the core story is over? I'm sure a lot of people have a 'wait and see' attitude to it, but does anyone actually feel like yeah that was a satisfying capstone to my experience with this game and I think that's a good time to check out? I'm not, but I could understand the impulse. I still got savages to raid

On controller it's really easy to tether people, though it takes a bit to learn the muscle memory to do it without clipping. Up->up->up->tether is something I press a Lotz and it sends me right back to the boss afterwards because the party member was only a soft target You do want to use it second when you double weave it with something else, though

The halves are disjoint in terms of the events that happen in the fantasy narrative but are extremely cohesive in their emotional theming imo

I'm sort of assuming that 7.0 will have you wander over to another continent, spend 10 levels learning about them, and capping it off by defeating a local, not global, threat If I had to guess, 6.1 through 6.55 will deal with the general malaise of not having an obvious direction and purpose at the moment Of course the writing team could upset this in any number of ways

bagrada posted:They should have released Endwalker weekly like a tv show, one story segment at a time. It would take care of the queue, let the bombs sink in and breathe, and people could water cooler the latest beats while waiting for the next story drop. it wouldn't fix the queue it would just extend it for months

Onean posted:Not only are they stopping distribution of the paid editions, they're disabling registration for free trials, too. fwiw, yoshida is producer on ff16, not director. So he's in charge of making sure the game stays on time and on budget, not in charge of creative aspects. For ff14, he's both.

Ixion actually made the game incompletable for late comers, because the Lochs was literally full on all three instances during peak ixion insanity hours

Regalingualius posted:For 70-80, is Bozja generally considered the best way to level alts once you get the roulette bonuses out of the way? I don't know for sure that there's nothing faster, but I do know that it's very fast. If you're far enough in the story to have the final zone of Zadnor unlocked, it takes around 5 hours to go from 71 to 81.

The limited job I want to see is Azem. Mechanic is summoning shades of NPCs you've met over the course of the game using the Azem job crystal, gathered and compiled similar to how blue mage works Biggest problem is, of course, that it's a minor spoiler to even say the idea

That said, money only really matters if you're buying the new glamour outfit every patch, outfitting a house, or maybe doing raid speedruns and burning through potions like crazy relatively normal play will give enough income for day to day expenses and the occasional splurge

Italics is my mechanical favorite of the alliance raid sets. CT and void ark are boring and Nier relies too heavily on weird indicators and also takes way too loving long

a fight where you have a visible dps race against the other parties, but also get to troll them, either intentionally or just because you have dumbasses in the alliance? but like, tuned so easy that it doesn't really matter and you can just laugh at it? perfect content
