Two years of adventure! - Merri - 01-09-2013

So the other day I sat down with some friends and we started to dig through some old screenshots taken over the years. I thought it was a lot of fun to find all those old memories and was pleasantly surprised to be hit with such a huge amount of nostalgia. It was awesome to see how much my character, and all my friends had grown over the years.

Figured it might be fun to carry that over here to the forums and to see what everyone else has to share. I have some 4000 screenshots taken, but I figure I'll throw down a few of the more nteresting moments in my XIV career. I encourage everyone else to do the same!

Re: Two years of adventure! - Folken - 01-09-2013

I have tons of screenshots myself, though none of them are anything particularly exciting given my short stint in playing. Most are from beta events and the like.

But still, I'll share a few humorous or interesting ones that I particularly like.

So many screenshots to choose from for this.

Re: Two years of adventure! - Eva - 01-11-2013

There were way too many screenshots for me to post them all, but I found a handful that spanned back a couple years from my various times with a number of different linkshells. Most of my screenshots were from one-on-one RP talks over the years, but I tried not to include so many of those and included more group pictures here. There were so many wonderful memories with so many great RPers~

Re: Two years of adventure! - Aysun - 01-11-2013

..I have too many. But it's been an awesome two years! These are just some of the ones I like.

2010/1570
Open-beta, on my shoddy laptop, the days back when I had one "i" in Aysun's surname. FFXIV became my new MMOhome at this point despite all the problems.
Show Content

Around launch time. I was in love with Ul'dah. No LS in those days, just a couple of RP pearls that fell apart before even really getting started.
Show Content

And then I met these guys. Sanctus Refero. This was the night I met them and was recruited.
Show Content

First Starlight celebration in Eorzea! Getting the Santa suit was such an ordeal back then!
Show Content


2011/1571
I started getting out more. Though I didn't level CNJ again after this for nearly a year. o_o
Show Content

Corbin (aka Aoixin) was being inappropriate with Sterne.
Show Content

My first time to Ishgard (and it was IC, too!).
Show Content

Sanctus Refero after an official induction ceremony for new members (mine included!).
Show Content

First annual Mavanix fashion show I got suckered into ICly.
Show Content

Sanctus hosted a ball of some sort (Alona had silly uniforms for the hired help as you can see from mine and a few other Miqo'tes attire). I left names on because I was overwhelmed by the amount of people who came. I miss these days!
Show Content

First NM hunt. I became the ritual sacrifice for Dodore because I was under-leveled. x3
Show Content

IC moment in La Noscea. Sterne was so surprised that little Weaver-Aysun was an Archer.
Show Content

Another fun NM hunt. And I wasn't dead this time.
Show Content

Sanctus repearling event.
Show Content

The beginning of the end. Who remember meeting this guy in person, rather than as an NPC? /raises hand
Show Content

Nothing needs to be said on this one..
Show Content

My (and Aysun's!) favorite cliff overlooking Ul'dah.
Show Content

I swear that little moon looks bigger! Doesn't it? No? ...Yes it does! You're crazy!
Show Content

Friendly doe.
Show Content

My first chocobo ride. Rent-a-bo.
Show Content

Fun in the mines. I just like this shot.
Show Content

With Nebulous! In Toto-rak, a place we spent a lot of time IC and OOC..
Show Content

My super secret CNJ-leveling days.. and a growing problem in the background! No denying it now!
Show Content

Mom and Dad- I mean, Sasha and Navei. These two taught me the ways of the CNJ.. of course, they were also pro THMs.
Show Content


2012/1572
I learned me some Ifrit.
Show Content

Memorial service for Corbin/Aoixin/Kayleen, who passed away on December 24, 2011.
Show Content

Adventuring with Blue Skies.
Show Content

Another pretty adventuring pic!
Show Content

This looks romantic, but it wasn't. Aysun with one of her favorite people, Galvadan.
Show Content

That problem just keeps getting worse.
Show Content

Suddenly, jobs!
Show Content

Fun endgame stuff with.. this shell changed names too often.
Show Content

Bard badassery with some moogles.
Show Content

Exploring Mor Dhona again.
Show Content

That time I broke Gridania..
Show Content

Dalamud is confused. That's the sun, stupid dog.
Show Content

I think this was my first Garuda (hard) win.
Show Content

We found a body here ICly, but OOCly, what the hell was the little settlement? Sylph village? Can't remember.
Show Content

Probably my favorite fight in all of 1.0. I don't know why.
Show Content

Exploring the Shroud with Selene, trying not to piss off the drakes.
Show Content

Everwatch gathering. The doe did not shit on Turk ICly, unfortunately. It would have been hilarious.
Show Content

Status update with Dalamud.
Show Content

Mor Dhona: Worth the trip.
Show Content

Dance time at the Cieldalaes!
Show Content

Auroras in Thanalan.
Show Content

The new assault tactic at Castrum Novum.
Show Content

Praying at the Anchor Yard.
Show Content

Ishgard auroras.
Show Content

Shit's getting real!
Show Content

Hat hunting with Omni.
Show Content

Eva's prayer at the Gala.
Show Content

Praying to Nald'thal (post-final save).
Show Content

Visiting the stones. Oschon is Aysun's guardian.
Show Content

A bow I hope to one day have legitimately~!
Show Content

Time for the final battle.
Show Content

Told you I had a lot! Aw.. the memories~
