Saint Freak posted:Honestly lets talk about the real much-needed change in the game This actually got asked in a Q&A from the Chinese FanFest fairly recently: quote:Q: Why do the scions have so many white/grey haired members? Basically, it's an accident that as they cycled characters in and out of the Scions they got rid of the characters with other hair colours and brought in characters with white hair.

I should probably finish levelling my crafters at some point. I got all of them to 40, apart from my BSM & GSM that I got to 80 before focusing on the rest.

The start of Eureka was so miserable for me trying to get the hang of it solo that it stopped me from trying any further and then hearing that the second zone is even worse before it gets good means that I probably never will. It's been a few years since I touched it, but it started out with you needed to get a drop of a crystal or two to unlock the whole element swapping mechanic, right? Right at the start it took so long to kill one mob right outside the starting town that I was on the verge of death and needed to stop to regen health, which then meant I lost the chain bonus so I got less XP. Also the drop rate for the crystals you needed to unlock the elemental wheel was so loving low when solo that I swear I must have killed like ten mobs before the first crystal dropped. Just said gently caress it and never went back. I get that it's intended to be group content, but they letting you do it solo and seemingly making it so punishing just felt awful.

I never got out of zone 2 in Zadnor. I popped in there after EW launched to try to level RPR a little and it was loving impossible to do anything. I swear in like the 30 minutes I was there only one FATE spawned in the zones I had access to.

It'll all be in Japanese, except the slides that will have both Japanese and English. The FFXIV subreddit discord has a channel devoted to live translation for these things, it's usually pretty good. It's locked down so it's just the translators posting without any bullshit.

Shame that the codex only gets unlocked with 6.1's MSQ. That would be neat to have at all levels. The "Calling Cards" are, as far as I understand, like the profile banners or whatever you can make in Call of Duty and the like. A customisable banner that people see in the killcam when you kill them. Don't know where people would see it in this game though. Maybe when inspecting you?

I do think Nu-Totorak is kind of souless, but then the original was poo poo on many levels. It is weird they overhauled the progression of the dungeon, but didn't really touch the bosses. Nu-Copperbell's bosses are fantastic and I know the bosses were Copperbell's main problem while Totorak had other issues, but it's weird that they barely did anything to them.

HackensackBackpack posted:So, what I understand is Estinien's English VA Robert Vernon did a Subway ad in Britain and then I guess he did it as Estinien later as a joke. British actors just do everything, pretty much. Theatre, TV, adverts, VO, movies if they're lucky. Anything that pays, really. So a bunch of actors who have done voices for this game have probably done an ad at some point using a voice similar to one they use for XIV.

I think we might have been told 6.25 at some point, but the site has only been saying 6.2 sine it went up. Since they're hyping it up on Twitter I'm guessing it's changed or we were told the wrong thing.

I think the tower is the same, but they added an extra route that has no platforming. The alternate route has the bombs from some of the Gold Saucer GATES that blow you off the course

The main reason why raid and side stuff isn't usually super important to the MSQ is because they don't want to force people to do them, they're supposed to be optional. Crystal Tower used to be optional, but they decided to rip the band-aid off and make it required so they can do stuff with it in the MSQ. There have been cases where some side stuff has been required for other side stuff, however.

Warmachine posted:I dunno. I think "another island" is real premature considering how many QOL improvements they could make to this one first. Spend some time letting the new feature mature a bit before adding a second identical mechanic. I mean, if there's another island coming it's slated for 6.4 or 6.5, that's two to three patches away. That's plenty of time to make improvements to the current system, unless they wait until the patches for the next expansion.

What happens if your pasture is full and you try to capture something? Does it just not let you or does it ask you to release something after capturing? I've been leaving a slot open just in case I see something I want to grab while out gathering.

I'm giving nu Summoner a try and does the Carbuncle not auto attack anymore after 6.0? I didn't really play SMN before the rework, just Arcanist to unlock Scholar, but I remember it attacking once I did (and pulling additional mobs in the overworld sine it did AOE attacks), now it just seems to wonder around the battlefield waiting for me to summon the Egis.

I have no clue realistically how long the recording sessions take of course, just a stray thought the talk of cat people brought up If it was the Japanese actor then I wouldn't be surprised if they retired the character or something, but I doubt they care much about the non-Japanese actors to influence the direction of the game. They already recast everyone once in HW, after all.

Honestly, the best of both worlds would be to leave housing as is and find some way to give everyone an apartment, or make them unlimited. There's no need for apartments to be attached to housing districts, just put them in the main city or something. But improve apartments so there is like a balcony or something for some small outside space. Of course, that doesn't account for whatever server stuff you would need to deal with essentially giving an apartment to every player (that's not on the free trial)
