Making the pixies genderless actually makes them less creepy, considering in-game they are the spirits of dead children reborn as fae

Who, Kate? You do realize she was lead localization starting in Shadowbringers? Localization has had input in the story, but the main writers are in Japan. Ishikawa not taking lead story in Dawntrail and letting the other writers run loose has more to do with Dawntrail's story woes. The 7.2...

The rovers that have testing facilities on board are usually very specialized and also limited. So for example on this rover, it can analyze the composition of a material and take microscopic images of some samples. However, it isn't as powerful as machines on Earth.

Can complain about the price, but any 2 way trip to Mars (manned or unmanned) is going to be expensive because of the technologies and R&D involved

It's fun to play - like Zindan said, the "endgame" is usually just a +gooderer grind. It can be fun to build into some OP build and the various events and new player bonuses they give make it pretty viable to unlock enough slots to build a powerful gun or character As for unlocking characters...

This isn't from the moon or an asteroid, it's from Mars. While Mars does have lower gravity than Earth and the atmosphere is thinner, it's not insignificant (it's something like 38% gravity and the atmosphere will still offer resistance to any launch). You would a) have to fly the thing to...

I mean it was a complex mission. It would have to land, retrieve the samples, launch back into space, then reach Earth. We haven’t done that with a planet before

Regarding Demerzel

On a side note, there is a free weekend that has started - full game minus DLC. If you decide to buy, game is 20% off also I also finished story for the DLC and the new main quest - I actually quite like the story so far. MSQ especially. One of the bosses in the DLC expansion quotes Satan...

Only thing that sucks is it would probably take a direct sample retrieval to confirm, unless they stumble on a stromalite next

The patch had some nice qol stuff but did little to address the end game. Outside of smaller patches, we probably won’t see anything substantial until the end of the year or early jan

That's just normal production. Anything with a budget of note is basically on par with producing and shooting a feature length film. Not surprising it might be years before we see anything

It's a parody mixed with absurdist humor, like the hallmark "take a statement or word literally" gag

Huh, where did you read that? I haven't seen anything about the show getting canceled, just still being in production

Season 1 was good in a 90s adventure show kind of way Then it went down hill

People kind of expect red mages to be the backup res at this point - it's been one of their reliable niches, so it wouldn't make sense to remove it from them

Part of the issue also is they also listen a lot to the Japanese playerbase, who have their own quirk and which can have knock-on effects. One common complaint in Japan was rotation complexity, mostly because it is a pain in the ass on a controller since consoles are probably the biggest...

Interesting interview with some new tidbits. They apparently have a class overhaul planned for next expansion to help counter class homogenization https://www.pcgamesn.com/final-fantasy-14/yoshida-interview-strength-of-the-hero

If you're still unlocking crap, difficulty 7 isn't that bad. You get the benefit of more rewards but it is still completely doable even if you're still unlocking all the base stuff. Recoilless rifle (the shoulder mounted RPG thing with an ammo backpack) is probably one of the most versatile...

Years from now

I mean you could do worse than something reminiscent of Xena

Last thing I remember him in was the tv show Defiance - he owned the mine and was constantly at odds with that alien guy who kept scheming to get the mine

Last night server shit the bed and booted people. Guild mate was flying in DD and worried he would lose thopter. We said it should be on ground when you can log in. He logs in and thopter is floating like 300 feet in the air lol

Just spice sand

Some of the changes are interesting. The change to thopter missiles - no more trick shots, but they're faster now. It also means gaining altitude to avoid getting shot will be much more viable, as scouts can't maintain speed, leaving only assaults with boosters as a threat.

They key will be a good mystery, but we can already figure out some details

There is a ton you can do with that - Tiamat, Allagans, even Omnicrons Real question is how much will they build towards that

https://www.techradar.com/gaming/final-fantasy-14-naoki-yoshida-interview-gamescom-2025 Interesting interview. Biggest nuggets 1) No Mericydia yet. They know when it will get introduced in the story, but it won't be soon. 2) Beastmaster you get a beast and then have to grow it, which sounds...

That was technically a plot point in The Expanse lol

Carrier has no cargo (yet). The only way to bring in materials is on your character or in the cargo hold of a scout or assault. They're working on letting carriers bring stuff like buggies/crawlers across the world map with cargo inside, but that is still a work in progress. The patch on the...

What achievement was that again?

I mean at that point, it is basically just a non-nuclear ICBM The military is interested in rapid materials deployment capabilities of Starship if they can get it functional as advertised - being able to load various logistics into one and send it across the globe in hours would be a pretty...

Cool summary of ship building with the new update Rip Starfield lol

People overlook another reason: movie theaters were one of the few air conditioned buildings at the time - spending a nickel or dime so you don’t sweat your balls off for 3 hours would have been a pretty good deal for people in hotter areas

PTS has some nice changes, including doubling the storage on an assault and making shoulder mounted launchers have lock on functionality as a base ability (not just Ancient Way)

I agree that is an insanely optimistic time table, especially if they needed to do or test mid-orbit refueling as part of that plan

Even at the government level, long term planning frequently goes out the window for manned missions. I think it was Bush Jr who got the ball rolling for a possible lunar mission after the shuttle got shut down, then Obama pulled back on that a bit because he wanted a manned mission to...
