    What vehicle do you drive?

    Thanks for this suggestion btw it's a little more than I wanted to spend but damn I think this is the one. I spotted a 2018 NX 300H at a restaurant earlier today and was checking it out until the owner came out. I don't speak japanese so it was pretty awkward trying to explain wtf I was...

    well I finished 5.3 which seat of sacrifice was a fun fight and seemed like a good ending for eldibus/shadowbringers. It seems like the next few (5.4, 5.5, 5.55) will just be setting up endwalker which follows all previous expansions format so, barring some crazy development, now is as good a...

    New World

    He was being facetious bro. 4mil x $40 is 160mil, less than 1/3 of their annual budget and the game was in development for 4 years.

    Your giving me too much credit im just paraphrasing from the search results of "most absurd shark jumps in modern media" Theres some interstellar in there, some vidja games like luclin, some poorly adapted twilight zone/black mirror concepts, etc

    Well not knowing which is which im going wih simulation. Let me guess, we're in the matrix? Morpheus is hydalaen? Its all just an allegory for trans? We're really a hideous, unpassable womxn trapped in a fat bearded man's body? Whats next? Rocket ships? Are we going to fly through a...

    well according to neramja if you see an npc once for a split second you should remember them and everything about them even hundreds of hours and thousands of NPCs later.

    Well crystal tower is required currently for ARR MSQ so everyone playing now has done it. I assume the prereqs change from time to time as they revamp/streamline older content so maybe players in the past who never did crystal tower wouldn't have known about it, since they have no idea what the...

    I do have one question about the exarch scene edit: Spoiler tag for....me? sure. I'm the only one who hasn't played this game. Nobody else starting this game now cares about the story, it's the worst part of FF14. Every other sprout i''ve seen just hits escape on cut scenes and clicks...

    Initial take? I liked him better when he was called Vitiate/Valkorian/Tenebrae. Hell I liked him better when he was called the black spirit. I don't dislike him as an antagonist, nor does he earn any overwhelming praise. I'm not exactly sure what you're asking? Like how am I liking him as a...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Nah i said used 2015-2020 range but looking at used cars online theyve jumped considerably. Ive never been a fan of buying new but looking at sticker pricesit may be worth it nowadays. Im looking at rav4, crv, and acura rdx right now.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Thanks for the inputs guys keep em coming. Ive never liked the look of a wagon will be a hard sell for me. But really the only thing i know for certain that i don't want is a convertible/sports car/coupe cus im at that mid life crisis age and i don't wanna be that guy. Budget is not a...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Aight FOH need recommendations for a good vehicle. I am returning to the us this summer after having lived in japan for the past 8 years. When i was younger Ive normally always knew exactly what kind of car i wanted next (sports cars) but I'm older now and woefully out of date on current...

    I won't score it yet but mid game of Shadowbringers is showing marked improvement of it's story telling compared to previous content. It's done a much better job of establishing stakes and overall atmosphere of the first. However the presentation of the general of degenerate homo town feels...

    Incorrect. Completely catatonic boy had only an hour or so left. Too bad for him he died weeks ago, days before anyone was able to kill a warden and even begin to change the aether of this world. It'll be months before anyone could rebalance the aether to the point he could of possibly...

    False. A little more time as in a few hours. Not months. The mental gymnastics you guys are doing to justify shitty writing is hilarious, cant just admit its bad. All these stories start off bad, this is no different than arr or hw or sb. Shitty writing til they find the plot. This one is...

    I save the world an hour after i arrive? Cus that's how long he had to live. If that's the case then yes, that is shitty writing. Oddly enough the msq has me returning to my room and sleeping several times. The whole "Shadowbringers" aspect of me driving back the light so that natural...

    Him living is even worse writing than i expected from this game, and i certainly didnt expect much. They pigeonholed in a ridiculous "sacrifice" scene and then realized later the only way to justify how completely illogical that was, was to have him live? Can't wait to see the retarded excuses...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Are you saying this shitty, illogical and wholly inconsistent writing was designed to make you feel empathy? Let me guess, you cried during air bud didn't you? There's zero logical sense to the entire arc. There's a handful of caregivers and they care for the inflicted in their final days...

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    Project E is the eastern continent with asian theme and TL (previously The Lineage, now Throne and Liberty) is the western/medieval continent but they take place within the same "world". surprisingly little info about the game that's been in development for 11 years and comes out in less than 6...

    yeah i'm killing lightwardens now in pixie land. i was talking about the caretaker lady dying for someone with minutes to live like the stupid cunt she is and then alisae getting all broken hearted and emo about it. Literally every zombie movie where the infection isn't damn near instantaneous...

    I certainly hope these introductory quests aren't a sign for things to come, they've made your character/friends/companions do some pants on hand retarded shit in order to further the "plot" but these alisae quests with the inflicted, man I've never rolled my eyes so hard in my life. This guy...

    No i mean the elf body he is currently inhabiting, was a ala mhigo resistance fighter. yeah ok I see he just merges with the primal. Not really a critical point but i'll cede that I misremembered that part.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I must of missed the scene when the elf had red eyes. Also thought he was just riding Shinryu (like gaius with ultima) didn't see him possess him. So his soul left his body and he possesssed Shinryu, so his body was just laying there on the ground the whole time? until the primal died and he...

    welp I have finished post Stormblood and started Shadowbringers. I was about to post a scathing review halfway through when Zenos made his miraculous reappearance, this being what the 8th, 9th time someone you killed/watched die magically isn't dead, but i'm glad I reserved judgement. The plot...

    In mmo space i don't think i'd call any story a 10/10. They're video games so will always draw comparison to similar media. They are at their heart rpgs thus they compete against single player rpgs, but with far more restraints (such as the necessity for multiplayer content, repeatable...

    about to finish stormblood, well on the last quest, royal menagerie part. Other than the ninja turtles and naboo/pineapple under the sea early on i'm not just sure why stormblood gets hate compared to heavensward. maybe the final cut scene ruins it? idk, i'll tell you after i finish it...

    You don't have to teleport around betweeen regions but throughout hw you will still do the alpino shuffle non-stop: you, off in far away lands, venture to the top of the mountain and discover X alpino: "can you believe we discovered X? lets head back to revenant's toll and talk about it" 4...

    ESO does this as well. You can start at level 1 in whatever current_expansion is and have a complete story/leveling experience. you can also go back and do other expansions if you want.

    fucking lol if you think i'm supposed to commit this garbage to memory. I've read every MSQ though I wish to fucking god I didn't. I can sum it all up right now "Is aught amiss? /headnod" The funniest thing is you think this shit is not only good but somehow deep and requires understanding...

    If you weren't one of the ones that was adamant that this shit was essential world building/back story I might even be able to forgive you, but you were, so I can't. The mythical "Good part" that starts when, again? Oh right you said final steps of faith back in HW, so lies or goal post...
