I always level Bard first, then mix of crafters/gatherers and a tank for hunts. After that usually one of each "role" for whatever new quest content the expansions have for that (at least ShB and EW have had this). Being able to just level one of SMN/SCH while getting both helps shorten this.

Part of me will be massively impressed they could fuck up something with this kind of budget it doesn't deserve that will be seen by such a smaller amount of people to the degree it could be worse than TLJ if that youtube guy is right. It might be like watching a train wreck, can't look away.

He's just been hurt a higher percentage of the time than Lamar Jackson. Crazy that's a fact but it is.

Honestly while I do think Edmonton has flaws, McDavid getting a shot at the Cup isn't a bad thing for the sport...and Florida is just solid as fuck. Should be a pretty good Finals, I hope.

Getting a little hyped, there's no better time on XIV than when X.0 expansion drops and you have all that MSQ to play through.

I remember hearing somewhat recently that Shadowbringers 5.0 cutscenes totaled 15 hours and change, while EW 6.0's were 23 hours and change. Granted, that's just cutscenes, not normal questing, combat, dungeons, etc...but that's a significant jump.

Curious if we'll hear the length of 7.0, especially in comparison to what 6.0 was. Obviously we will get a launch trailer in a couple of weeks, too.

Can't believe the cutscenes they manage to put in for it.

I think the raw number leaguewide is something like 33% success rate in shootouts/penalty shots. Definitely big swings for certain goalies/shooters, though. It is definitely a thing to have a couple guys on your team who are shootout specialists for the extra potential points during the season.

Definitely seems like there won't be a pure turn based FF for awhile, although I'd push back on the idea on not having tactical choices anymore.

I would definitely say play VI. It's the absolute best game of the pre Playstation era, basically takes everything good they did in the earlier 8 and 16 bit versions and takes it to the max it can be (even if I think they could have done a stronger 2nd half of the game narratively). I still...

They're just never consistent when the goalie is actually in the blue paint but the player is outside of it, and there is stick contact that moves the goalie at all...especially when the D man is at least in part or fully causing contact to occur.

My only issue with this is his stick getting tied up by Dallas player and it causing him to not be able to make as much of a play as he normally would.

Fucking so great as neutral fan. Live for this shit.

I wonder if 16 ended up being rushed (either didn't have time to finish the DLC content for the main game, or just in general). There's definitely stuff to build on from that game. The lack of RPG elements is a legit complaint, though.
