    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    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.

    NHL 2023-2024 Season - Arizona Stays Homeless

    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.

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    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.

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    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.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    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.

    Insane period from Kreider. Obviously some puck luck just being in spots for some dirty goals, but credit the Rags for making the push. Sweet knowing with the Canes being eliminated that the Pens aren't even going to get a 1st for Guentzel now.

    NHL 2023-2024 Season - Arizona Stays Homeless

    The craziest one I saw was that not only is the fastest (least games) player to hit 1,000 points, he's also the 2nd fastest...as he put up points 1,001-2,000 faster than anyone else put up their first 1,000. Oh...and he's the only one to ever even hit 2,000 points. Although in another 2 years...

    Maybe should have overturned, but Florida has been the better team by a wide margin last 3 games.

    I don't think Swayman is making the save either way, but Coyle isn't going into him like that without the push/cross check (kinda weak to call it a real cross check in the playoffs).

    Nah, Obi Wan/Anakin from end of 3 was the best fight of the prequels. Yes the one twirling scene and the high ground shit was over the top, but the rest is still best live action lightsaber fight. Also bless that throwaway line forcing war with clones...b/c it ended up giving us the Clone Wars...

    I don't totally agree the core is the problem directly...although finding consistent defense and goaltending to go with it (or more correctly, being able to afford it while paying that core what they make) has been their biggest problem over the years, imo. Any single year a 7 game series can...

    Honestly sometimes teams are just very unlucky in their match ups, bounces, goaltending, OT games, etc. You need all of it to go your way to have a Cup run. Very few teams are just so stacked where they can outclass everyone for 4 straight series. It always seems like change is needed when...

    That's why I said he fleeced the Ravens last year...and honestly Flowers almost had as good as season as Waddle did last year as a rookie.

    Realistically he was expected to be 3rd option for Ravens behind Mark Andrews and rookie Zay Flowers last year (Andrews ended up missing 7 games due to injury, or OBJ would have been 3rd in receiving yards).
