Once again seeing people have horrendous takes of "they should work on a way to cut down on expansions so you can just start playing end game content right away"

Go play a shooter game

Go play Fortnite

Literally go play WoW which has you thrown into end game content

I don't understand why all games need to satisfy this need for immediate gratification while basically building absolutely fucking nothing

You wanna press shiny buttons for 8 hours and get a reward each time? What is this, a gambling arena?

If they cut down on expansions, why even play the game anymore? Taking the meat off an entire organism and leaving it as bare bones for yet another instant gratification video game

It's an RPG for fucks sake! It happens to be online as part of the concept. ROLE. PLAY. GAME. THERE'S GONNA BE ROLEPLAY IN THE ROLEPLAY GAME. YOU PLAY A ROLE. OF THE HERO PROTAGONIST. IN A STORY.

If it was a take that talked about ARR content and needing some further refinement or reworking here and there to draw the audience in, I'd understand. I tried FFXIV 4-5 years ago and ARR put me off. I gave up in the post patches. I came back for the Viera last summer (and because I could afford a sub) and forced myself to push through ARR and eventually came to really like the story and the game itself after being a literal hater for years before.

But to outright ask that they let you play the game without the story and just have you jump into current content while being a completely new player with no knowledge of your own class? Do you also not care about all the other people forced to play with these newcomers? It's bad enough they can job and story skip to 90 right now. Next year they'll make it 100 probably. You'll wanna run an Extreme for DT or something and suddenly you have a guy who doesn't know how to use either of the gameplay modes available, but oh it's fine cause they just wanted to play with their friends so they bought a skip, the expansion and the game license and a sub.

Playing THROUGH the story with your friends is an even better experience! Makes the way to the end worthwhile instead of throwing over 60€ away on a subscription based, expac based game, just to play with your level 100 friends for a week and then dump it cause you didn't actually enjoy it even with endgame fully available.

Zenos yae Galvus lines that you can say in bed:

A TEST OF YOUR REFLEXES!

Have you the strength?

It fills you even now, doesn't it? The hunger, to bite down on my jugular, to feel the warmth fill your mouth and run over even as you drink deep.

REND!

COME! LET ALL CREATION BE CONSUMED BY OUR RAVENOUS FERVOR!

Is this truly all that Hydaelyn's chosen can muster?

YES, YES, JUST SO!

What I desire from you isn't succor. It's satisfaction.

Aye, let us indulge in the only worthwhile pursuit, and burn our lives to their ends!

GIVE ME SOMETHING TO REMEMBER!

THE CONFLAGRATION OF OUR CLASH WILL SCORCH EVEN THE STARS!

I know you feel it too. The inferno swelling within you.

Show me your vaunted fortitude!

MINE FOR THE TAKING!

This is the beast I have longed to face!

SHOW ME YOUR ALL!

Don't stop now...

I made lowpoly locs just to see if I could

I dont think I ever clarified that I just went in and modeled her locs vertex by vertex. I placed every single polygon by hand. No curves and nothing procedural about it. Im too picky for that

and then i went in and manually placed Every bone

AND THEN I WENT AND TEXTURED EACH INDIVIDUAL LOC

ONCE AGAIN, the bar has risen for professional gaming companies!!! If our friend on Tumblr can do it, they can certainly do it while getting paid to do so!!!

[screamingvikings]

it really is a shame that zenos and wol never got to live out their primal play/Most Dangerous Game fantasies without the fate of nations or the whole star hanging over it. These two should be stuck in some kind of Predator situation. Mad Maxing it up in the wasteland. They should be two cursed soulsborne characters eternally hunting and killing each other in a giant abandoned cathedral somewhere. It would be good for them. Whose idea was it to put the immovable object and the unstoppable force in politics. They should be smashing against each like a supernova, not stressing about the price of ceruleum
