    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I still want them to make emotes of some of the custom animations they did for the Hildibrand stuff.

    It does, but the animation most certainly does not, and that's what makes it seem like you're "out of it" but you "get hit" at times.

    I'm also lurking around on Gilgamesh as Jaen Mandar. Been on a kind of hiatus, but I really need to get at least Zodiac done before 3.0 heh. I'm still half-assing towards trying to finish Turn 9, because I suck and haven't gotten around to doing it religiously in hopes of a clear. Mostly...

    They're both mythic for reasons I think are fairly straightforward. I shouldn't need to explain for Soulfire Facerape, I think. I think Monastery Mentor is mythic simply because the tokens also have prowess, and because of Jeskai Ascendancy, its theme, and the sheer support white and red...

    Binding Coil of Bahamut and beyond were very interesting healing experiences, so you have that to look forward to, especially learning Turn 2.4 / 9 and beyond. It was a very different, more intense experience healing Coil for the first time, when I started Turn 1 and beyond before 2.2 came out.

    [Manga] Bleach (spoilers to current)

    You mean like how various people look like each other throughout the entire series?(We're incidentally at two Aizen lookalikes, by my count, those being the Soul King and the "D" Sternritter.) Plus, he "previewed" the Soul King a while back ago in the arc as a complete non-sequitor.

    Second boss of Sastasha (Hard) still gets people killed because 'omgdps check' is serious business when the boss builds up to 1900 dps on one person and they can't be bothered to pay attention to when he goes pewpew mode to switch from the add swarm.

    Interstellar (2014)

    Not replying to say I disagree with this post, just to make an observation: The only reason there's a perceived paradox is because we, in how we interpret the world, can't reconcile the fact that, to our minds, "somehow it happened originally in order to happen again." For instance, how...

    Late to the party, but totally called Juliette ending up a hexenbiest. They were heavily implying that for a short time shewasAdalind, plus the use of the word "reversing", and when the midsection pain came along it really made me think that she was reliving Adalind's life backwards all the way...

    I'm still thinking that's where our Squad Uno is off to do: to get Aizen released so he can send Aizen against what would be Aizen's competition there. Keeps things busy up there, and a good chance to remove Aizen from the board at the same time.

    This, but I also vaguely recall reading about them having a 2yr plan from the start. (Firefly had a 5yr character plan, which I recall reading evenmorevaguely.)

    Finally got around to seeing this. Was certainly worth the price of admission, though I agree some parts were logically questionable (going to a planet with such a massive time dilation factor).

    My rule of thumb in the past (when I opened more product) was to get rid of foil Legacy/Vintage movers asap, because you could generally trade pretty well due to supply and demand. If you're really feeling adventurous, get a hold of a second one and sit on it as an investment for the future...

    And because it's obvious, this whole "I am the darkness" thing is playing into the old man's hands. If not, then his #2 is going to come along to rebalance the board, because special ability.

    By 'stuff', you mean the (unborn?) fetus of Skye's brother/sister, if I saw that right. At least, it sure looked like they excised a fetus. Rewatched this, and boy did I see that wrong the first time through. Nothing to see here, was just him turning her head when I thought he was doing...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    This, but it makes the assumption that Raina told Ward a LOT about Skye's family tree, combined with what he knows about Hydra operations, and using deduction to put it all together.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Mother and father both, based on the ending, so likely Skye's inherited the time-lock if such a trait can be passed on. Also, yeah to Dichen Lachman being such a short role, though I did like who she was. Still a chance for flashbacks but unlikely.

    They're definitely upping the supernatural side of things. Stupid DVR recording was cut off in the final parts so didn't see how things ended.

    I've been wondering about that also. They were referred to (it was in writing) as the "Grimm Royal Families" somewhere. I want to say it was on the official site, but I can't recall where I found it at.

    Grimm

    They've been hinting at a strong 'supernatural genetics' thing the entire series. Hexenbiests have been the most prominent example of this, though, specifically the moment in S1 when Adalind's powers went woosh out of her like an exorcism.

    Can't speak for desirability, but roughly speaking (I'm not current on the numbers, everything I've read is relative): Single Target - MNK >= NIN >= SMN/BLM >= DRG / BRD AE - BLM > SMN > BRD > DRG > MNK/NIN

    They need to bring Reggie Lee's character into the loop. They've given him some lolsy lines in the past, so adding in Wesen jokes on top of that I can only imagine the snark.

    It's not listed, no. If I had to guess, it's Heavens' Eye. Why? Every other secondary stat is used by two other jobs except Bard which is the only Heavens' Eye thus far.

    I was pondering whether the Desynth reset books were going to be viable or not, given the materials to make them. I'm leaning towards initial rush to reset, but will peeter out into the low 5-digit values.

    50% echo after repeated wipes fixes a lot of things, if not bads. That said, people can generally clear it without Echo in the times I've gotten it on Trial roulette (which was an entire week, at one point).

    24 hour maintenance for 2.4, starting Monday bright and early (midnight) and ending Tuesday. Guess I'm going to bed at 3pm. :P I'm surprised they haven't put up preliminary patch notes yet, though. Weren't 2.2 and 2.3 up roughly a week prior? I can't recall.

    afk fapping to trailer. Anyway, as far as Atma->Novus go, I imagine it'll be rather faster, but this is heavily contingent on the Myth expenditure going down by 75% when the changeover to Soldiery as the main currency occurs. (IE - Animus books = 1500 Myth -> 375 Soldiery; Alexandrite Maps =...
