  1. Disclaimer: I hate FFXIII. Post Disclaimer: I'm all for this.
  2. They're all terrible. I'm living in the post Half Life 2 era and this is still the best Square can give me. Although, Yshtola isn't bad, her voice is just too deep for her character. Actually I'm just in love with Yshtola. Can we Tron rez her out of the game and into reality??? :love::love::love: The three city leaders aren't bad, but of the lot, the admiral is the best. Kan E Senna isn't bad but her take is lifeless, flat and dull. I fall asleep listening to her. The Flame General is amazingly over the top. Love it. Yid, PAPALIMO or whatever his name is, those two are the worst. THE ABSOLUTE WORST, though, are the guys who don't get much voice time like Biggs and Wedge. Minfalia seems to be forcing it. I'm pretty sure she doesn't naturally have an accent.
  3. Get with the times kids. If nobody hates you you're not doing life right. It's unrealistic for an introvert. Don't push that on extroverts. People like me have no issue jumping into other conversations or striking up talks with people they don't know.
  4. The Goobbue is the greatest mount in all of MMOdom. Mine is named Goobbue Sr. My pet's name is Goobbue Jr. They are also known as Goobanza and Sir Grassington.
  5. Character: Sin Darius Primary Weapon(s): The Great Axe, His Fists Class-equivalent: Warrior/Marauder/Gladiator/Badass Style: Viking/Israeli Commando Offense/Defense/Versatile: Primarily Offensive Strengths: Stamina, Vitality, Strength Weaknesses: Agility, Range Summary: Sin Darius is the reincarnated spirit of Daishi. Both men grew in the desert and practiced their arts on the shifting sands, learning to fight against raw beasts, massive worms, dread antlions, Anticans and Amaal Ja. Trained to endure weeks without food and days without water, to exist under the most stressful of conditions and one of only ten babies that survive to adulthood from his tribe, Sin Darius is the ultimate survival machine. Gifted with immense survivability, he prefers a one on one combat, though his tactical abilities gifted from years of warfare allow him to use a variety of debilitating moves that weaken his foe. However, as with all people of his tribe, Sin Darius' greatest gift is the willingness to lay his life down with his friend, and uses the intimidating lure of his weapon to keep his enemy's attention. Defensive- Sin Darius' great weapon allows him the easy attention of his foes. With his years of training in harsh conditions, on constantly shifting footing against stronger foes, Sin has learned to parry a great deal of his enemy's attacks using the length of his Great Axe and its reinforced shaft. Given the great width of its blade, he need not worry about where to strike in most cases. However, when pressed, he can strike the leg of his enemy to hinder their movement, or strike at at their side to release a constant flow of blood that will debilitate them over a long term battle. His ability to summon inner strength grants him increased defensive capabilities and the stamina to absorb what would be devastating strikes to lesser warriors. Offensive- On the offensive is where Sin Darius is most comfortable. A mad man in battle that summons a berserker rage, he draws strength from the blows he lands upon his enemies. He will use every element of his environment to his advantage, circling around his enemies, crushing them with downward strikes, leaping from the direction of their blows, swinging wide, at moments elevating his rage to such levels that he can summon powerful offensive strikes in succession, raining them down with unrelenting fury. Parrying each blow of his enemy he will use Axe, tomahawks, the shaft end of his Great Axe and the bikes in its head to impale his foes. Sin Darius uses every element of his weaponry and his environment to move forward UNTO GREAT VICTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Extra: Sin Darius will do anything that is required to kill you. While many others see an undisciplined madman, in truth its is two lifetime's worth of discipline, tactical training and nonstop combat that have been honed into what only seems to be an unpredictable style. In truth it is highly regimented and thought out, with each blow known beforehand after a second's worth assessment of his foe. Double Extra: You bleed, he drinks it. You tire, he smiles. As you wither, he takes your life force for his own. He is Sin Darius, Daishi, the Deathbringer!
  6. There is very, very, very, very, very commonly RP happening in Drybone. All the time.
  7. What about the lore suggests to you that labor is safe? I am not trying to be argumentative, just understand. It seems to me there is plenty of dangerous work: adventuring, military positions, mining, piracy, etc. If we don't want to compare to eras past, how about the recent past? According to the US's Social Security Administration, life expectancy at birth in the US was 58 for men and 62 for women for those born in 1930 (this includes infant mortality). In FFXIV, are we to presume that magic and alchemy inflate the life expectancy from what it was in a post-industrial first world country? Do you believe health care is available to everyone? (These are questions for everyone.) ^ ^ ^ As much as I LOVE pretty young people, it would be so nice to have some variety. Of course you can always RP as an older person but having an avatar that goes with it is helpful. Yeah! I've had a few IC complements admiring Salty's face, calling her pretty etc. and I'm like, "Eh? Pretty wasn't what I was going for but OK!" Maybe I need to use that phial of fantasia to add some scars. Magic. It all boils down to magic. The life expectancy of a person in Eorzea is, according to me, 200.
  8. Sin Darius has a strong memory of his previous life in Altepa Desert and has an aversion to oceans and ants.
  9. Yes. I took many naps in WoW on the upstairs floor of the inns. I can't do that in FFXIV. WHY NOT.
  10. YOU ALL LAUGHED WHEN I SPENT ALL MY TIME WOOD WORKING AND CHOPPING TREES in 1.0. WELL WHO'S LAUGHING NOW! HUH!? WHO'S LAUGHING NOW!!! :geek::moogle:
  11. How do I hit on the women in this thread without being creepy. Sorry, impossible mission. :cactuar::chocobo:
  12. In the RP community I'm not sure you can meet the threshold, but I may be wrong.
  13. My weakness? Mary Sues. I wither away and refuse to roleplay with the majortiy of people because they all think they're Billy Bad Asses.
  14. Let's be real clear. FFXII and FFXII sucked. SUCKED. SSSSSSUUUUUCCCKKKEEEDDDDDD. Nobody cares about Square Enix or considers it a relevant story teller in the current era. They have to do a total overhaul of what thye consider story telling to even grasp a straw finger at a remote glimpse of their past glory. The world moves on, and they kept milking nostalgia for money. And that's why they're not artists. If they were, they'd give up the FF franchise completely and do something new and dynamic. They never will because they died around 2007.
  15. It's not leveling you need worry about, it's the fetch questing to progress the story missions.
  16. Can you be a Samurai even if you're from America? Well, according to the Last Samurai...
  17. The problems are just absurd. Being able to communicate is the single most important thing in an MMO, and the fact that chat isn't working properly—even if just for a matter of days—is really unbelievable to me. My continued faith in SE is conditional upon a quick resolution of these issues. Did you play 1.0?
  18. They're like a Hydra. For every one you strike down, seven more appear in their place!
  19. The RP hub is officially Aleport meet at the mermaid statue at 6 EST Wednesdays. Problem solved.
  20. It'd be a meet up point, nothing more. That said, I'm not married to the idea. Someone else can do it.
  21. I'd even be willing to do a weekly myself and post the calendar.
