"emet-selch is GAY he CANNOT POSSIBLY like women bc he is FLAMBOYANT" if only there were some kind of magical sexuality where you could like multiple genders and still be visibly queer bc how you behave has nothing to do with who you are attracted to 🤔

What is your least favorite elevator in SWTOR and why?

My vote goes to the elevator impside on Quesh that you have to ride as soon as you get off the transport because you aren't allowed to quick travel.

Sun coded this. Moon coded that.

Give me someone who is a blackhole personified. That someone, no matter how hard they try, get stuck on a ending path to a point of no return and inevitably consume anyone who catches into their gravitational pull. That their destructive tendencies mold into everyday life and eventually seep into the lives of the people who are close to them. Because that is what a blackhole does. It consumes whatever gets close to them.

reading the wrath of darth maul has been very interesting bc it shows you how sith training from a very young age truly breaks your spirit, your mind and your body. it's so crazy to me that some people in this fandom think the sith are "more free" than the jedi when sith are physically and emotionally abused into submission and loyalty.

ffxiv is so fucking funny because relatively few people in this playerbase understand how good they have it (which is a fine thing overall because it means the game isn't horrendously flawed). like in my browsing just now I went from a long discussion about roulettes and whether they should be tweaked to change player incentives to a destiny 2 postmortem where someone's explaining that part of the game's problem is they just straight up ripped out large chunks of it as they went and you simply cannot play "the main story of destiny 2" in any meaningful way.

like on the list of things that make FFXIV insanely good to play is "most content except seasonal events should be evergreen and always playable, and there should be incentives for endgame players to go back and do it." you would think this is the most basic player retention and growth thing ever and yet the other mega-successful mmos don't actually do it (which is not to say it's totally unique, waving to my eso friends here). class dps balance issues which make people frustrated here wouldn't even register as issues in most games, which have significantly higher deltas in damage output between the best and worst performers.

which is not to say people should not complain about and critique FFXIV! only that sometimes, listening to the complaints, I feel a bit like I'm in the front room of a nice house, and someones pointing to and complaining about a crack in the window, and it's not that they're wrong—the crack is real and should be addressed—but they don't even realize the finger they've pointed at the crack is also pointed at the dilapidated apartment building across the street I used to live in, which I can see through the window, and I can't really follow the complaint anymore because I'm just like "wow it's soooo much nicer not living there anymore"

like, could FFXIV pvp be better? Yes! Was the feast really bad for a really long time? Sure was! But imagine if FFXIV had a mode that's like crystalline conflict only you have to win SEVEN MATCHES IN A ROW for the really desirable stuff, and also some of it is still random drops, and despite everyone repeatedly pointing out that winning seven matches in a row is a completely unreasonable goal that makes it impossible to have good matchmaking, they refused to ever change it. AND your gear affects your damage. This is a real mode destiny 2 players suffered through discourse about for years!!!
