    The Yakuza of FFXIV - though, I saw one advertisement the other day in chat. 5 million gil for 5 bucks on Coeurl. I put some serious thought into doing that before telling myself Im stupid. lol

    I'll make sure even little Timmy has a good time monetarily, but where the hell is this going to be at? Has any poll or anything been offered?

    I was ahead of the curve on content from they very beginning. Especially with the earring and such for prepurchase. I got to 74 and... couldnt progress in the story without grinding (just a bit). Nothing major, but it did put the breaks on the story a few nights. However, I didnt do any lore...

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    I believe he may have been confused on the names. Dave Georgeson is rarely called by his name. Where as Rob Pardo, Jeff Kaplan, etc. are called... just that. Not to mention Brad has such an illustrious reputation here that by calling him even by his life style choices, hes well known.

    Final Fantasy XIV plays remarkably well on the PS4. You just have to spend an extra 15 minutes unclogging the GD user interface that takes up 80% of the screen. I wouldnt play BDO on the PS4 simply because I know load times would be horrible and the graphics would be middle of the road at best...

    Everything Ive heard and/or read has said that PLD & GNB were good, WAR was above average, and DRK was average. All can perform the job, some just do it a bit better. First time Ive heard someone say DRK was comparable to GNB, both were alright and the other two needed ... something more...

    Ive finished most everything up as a Warrior Tank that the game has to offer, except the newest Savages. I just dont know enough people (that play the game well) to build a group for one, much less do I really want to be obligated to a static group on a set schedule. Not that I'm averse to it...

    I think it would be cool for a Healer to have a defensive, yes. A defensive that I have to depend on as a tank, though? No thanks. Healers are already expected to keep everyone in good shape, DPS and now.. cast a defensive. I'm not sure I'm on board with that. Maybe if I had more experience...

    If I only have a choice between beers, I'd much rather drink White Claw than most of the trash beers that are out here in the country. I saw some nasty looking stuff the other day on the lake called Naturday and I got a hangover just looking at it.

    Thats one way to put it. To me, they just saw WoW take a lot of their players and their answer was to mimic WoW and change the game to be more casual friendly. When that wasnt what a lot of .. at least vocal.. players wanted at all. If they wanted WOW mechanics, they would have just played...

    I just went through and bought a mouse keyboard combo for the PS4. Setting up the base UI is by far easier using a mouse. The game is completely playable with the controller though, so dont get discouraged about using it. You can map several trigger buttons to use a laundry list of abilities if...

    I'm currently about a third into Shadowbringers, but if you want to message me your handle / server I'll shoot you a friend request. I'm a tank if you need that, and after I'm done with the MSQ in Shadowbringers, I'll be bringing up a healer. Which should fly considering every wait I have is...

    But arent you still in like.. Heavensward content? My interest peaked significantly towards the end of the Stormblood content. Now that Im doing Shadowbringers - there is just so much shit happening in the MSQ that I'm like... wtf is going to happen next?!?! Only thing that bugs me is that a...

    I'll have to remember all this stuff about crafting. Within the last 16 quests of Stormblood and I dont see Shadow taking more than a week at most (I work a lot *sigh*). When I play on the days I can actually take off... Usually, no ones online in my FC. If they are, they arent paying...

    Seed by Klang Games - Colonization SIMMo

    Game comes off to me as taking the concept of Clash of Clans and E-sim and tying it to Simcity-lite as a graphical interface. Im not opposed, but if they are going to put "threats" into the game, like raiding parties etc. that is hinted at at the bottom of the concept article - then I hope it...

    Honestly, that raid leading shit is not a one person job. Ive had my hand at leading a guild several times over the years as with raid groups, but it's always been based around a core group of friends. When in Legion, it was the same way. I organized it, filled the slots the best I could and...

    Would be cool if they had something that would use RNG for telegraphs with levels that get harder and harder. Maybe the first handful of levels it just pulls random telegraphs from current fights. Then as you progress, the computer starts to randomly pick chunks of each telegraph from...

    SWTOR

    There was so many parts of the game that I just sat back in disappointment for what could have been. Old code/graphics left over from when they wanted a seamless station to space experience. A type of non-scripted launch from a planet surface to the space stations etc. After being involved...

    Everquest Mysteries

    The trolling/hazing in EverQuest was some of the best fun Ive ever had. Usually in good spirits between both parties, too. Trying to die to a mob and shaman casting slow on it, or a cleric casting CH. Turning mobs on the unsuspecting. Trains between guild rivals. Good times that make you...

    I dont know. Something happened.. it seemed like in my early 60's(?) as a tank. My health just stopped fluctuating like a heart beat. Ive always had up-to-date gear as I've leveled. But now, whether it's a low level ARR dungeon, or higher - I just dont see my health sky dive that much...

    I just think they should go back to having one dungeon with an Ulduar/naxx/ICC-esque layout that has multiple bosses in the raid that have varying difficulties. With only 4 out of the 12 (example) being required to complete the raid/story. I personally just dont get the point in doing Mythic...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I mean, it’s not THAT bad. I think that if they wanted to fix anything regarding ARR - they should just rewrite bits of the story that really don’t make any sense. They have a room in waking sands that never gets used. Instead of writing out the option to port there - they should have just put...

    I think we were all a bunch of assholes in the ARR launch time frame. I don’t remember a bunch of manginas, but I specifically remember a couple undesirables here that influenced us all into crashing a RP “play” in Gridania amphitheater. The videos are sure to be found back on our old old...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Seems like we're all spread out. Mostly due to the fact that creating a character on our original launch server is damn near impossible unless you wake up at 4am to create the character. Or, related to that fact.. I dont want to wait in a 15+ minute queue every time I want to play the game...

    Im "thinking" its the option "Turn to Face The Mob When Attacking" or something similar to that. My UI was super cluttered, so I set it to Default and cleaned it up from there. But last night, I was noticed that sometimes when running out of a telegraph, I would jerk to a position and eat the...

    I can appreciate SE's stance on ACT and how you shouldnt express how terrible some people are at the game.

    Its the way the damn thing is coded right now. The damn skill should default to on, instead it defaults to off. So when you log on, its off. When you switch classes, its off. Its nice to be able to turn enmity generation off, but the thing is coded backwards. So I can see how it can be a...

    I havent cared enough to look into the bot situation all that much with FFXIV. I dont know how their security works or anything. Got pretty familiar with WOW's at one point, but I had always heard that FFXIV really didnt have much detection. So a ban wave like that kind of proves otherwise.
