  1. Couple of us often ended up there after doing things. It's kinda fallen out of favor due to HW dropping.
  2. 1. I'm probably the worst RPer on the website seeing as I haven't RPed in weeks if not months. Nah I don't count rando shit over a LS as proper RP.
  3. We also cannot forget that synthesis might be more efficient than the RL methods of that era.
  4. That top with the Mariner's Bottoms is love for the men
  5. Ladies and gentlemen. Here is the dankest of knights
  6. More importantly, it shouldn't be up to a crowdfunded initiative from the community to add more bandwidth available to the one of the most densely populated datacenters of the game. Ultimately, if they want people to move out of Aether's Data Center so it's hammered less hard, they'll have to offer hella incentives to do that, or just straight up put Balmung under extended maintenance and put it onto another Data Center that's far less crowded. However that would require Square-Enix to want to do anything about this situation, which precedent shows they don't so essentially anyone rolling on Balmung has to pay 18$ for the privilege. Not saying that's the reason they're not doing it. Just that it's probably in the 3 digits on their list of things to do sorted by priority.
  7. Crow's best in game right now in terms of damage. Dauntless is dog shit.
  8. It really is, but since it's a technical alpha not all the bits and pieces work yet. E.G. : I play Dauntless almost exclusively, and normally I'd have a loadout to fight against my two worst matchups (Talos - Grappler and Chel - Shoto) but since the game's missing quite a bit, I've nothing for these two.
  9. I'd need Sylvie Noiret invited to the Pats & Crumbs LS as soon as I'm in the game again (editing a bit of her appearance).
  10. I think it'll remain PC exclusive since it's designed with keyboard in mind.
  11. It's mentioned once or twice, but there's an actual FATE in South Shroud at Buscarron's Druthers that starts off this concept, I believe.
  12. oh man i can't wait until mlg finally puts ffxiv in their roster these dudes are gonna make EVERY THE MONEY.
  13. when will you people learn there is no such thing as a community in a mmo and that everyone is an asshole just out to get +2 dps
  14. Kell does not compete. Kell plays the course.
  15. No adventurers do not have to be more "progressive" but they're not all concerned with cross-racial ties or differences it seems. Just as others -are- very divided by their tensions, others are not. http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/world/#!/races/content?lalafell Some peoples, based on the information provided by Koji and the racial lore, have a general more open-minded and less racial-tension relations with the others. Adventurers and lalafells. Again, make a claim, source your shit like Kage did.
  16. Hildibrand actually shows proof of how dark the setting can get because every single thing in that questline is a direct result of how Ul'dah treated Sil'dih. Yes, it's shown in a very silly manner, and gets resolved rather peacefully considering what was about to happen - Still, you want proof of darkness? You got it. My problem with that is essentially that even in NPC blurbs you barely see it. Even a throwaway line would be good, but they specifically go out of their way to not mention it. Other than for Duskwights in Grid, there's barely anything. Ishgard is actually better in that regard in that it does showcase what the setting allegedly is (two young kids struggling to read a simple memo in the Jeweled Crozier showing that literacy isn't exactly a strong point, etc.) but in so far as racism is considered it's still not that very well shown. I'm saying, he might have said it in a Q&A or something, but it's certainly not something that came up during discussions on what they should have NPCs say, or storylines, etc. Else it'd be there more often, y'know. It'd certainly explain why Ishgard is actually showing how hard life is for the average Eorzean and the other cities aren't - it was developed after them. To me, this whole "Eorzea's racist as fuck you guys" screams of "Dumbledore is gay". Something that was said by the author/someone prominent enough to make that call after the fact, that has absolutely no impact on the story in any significant way, that only serves to make a few people thumb their noses at others for not being on the hunt for every single possibly significant piece of lore ever. And the most important part... Koji Fox said that? Source it. "Go look in the lore Q&As" isn't good enough.
  17. When a prominent developer states something like that and continuously refuses to do storylines that involve what he just says, that says more about the developer than the world he created. And I'm contesting the frequency and intensity that this happens, not that it happens at all. If it was important, it would be shown and it would be prominent. We barely have mention of a very specific racial conflict (in this case I was citing Hyur/Elezen specifically). We have more examples of Hyur/Elezen collaboration and tolerance than of outright hatred/racism. Gridania would be fucked without the Hyur and the Elezen who live there know it. Ishgard is a whole other story.
  18. have you seen how they handled end-game? if that shit ain't enough to make you depressed congrats. why am i even trying to get everything to 60 at this point.
  19. if they intended otherwise they would have put safeguards against this shit.
  20. Same - I'll want a cheat sheet just so I know what to expect coming in, but beyond that I'm good.
  21. There are no official RP servers in FFXIV. There are a few burgeoning communities on other servers as well as a fairly significant community on Gilgamesh.
  22. You mean that thing that is barely shown in-game? The only times I've seen it would be that part and the barring of one of Gridania's areas but mechanically it's off-limits to adventurers period (with the implications that only the high-ranked/padjal would have access). Honestly y'all clinging to his words a bit too much - if it was that important they'd show it or use it as a backdrop to something significant. They haven't, yet.
  23. "Huh, must have mistook me for someone else." "Why do they want to kill Phantom? He's a good bird!" Kell'd be utterly oblivious.
