A Thank You to the Final Fantasy XIV Devs.

I've played FFXIV since 2013. I bought my PS3 and PS4 just for FFXIV. It's been a constant in my life since then. For better and for worst. I also met the love of my life through Final Fantasy XIV back in Heavensward. I reached out to a random FC recruitment listing in the PF. They wanted members and I have a solo fc so I didn't want to join but I love helping people with stuff and so I offered to help them with content and stuff. The FC leader introduced me to the officers, his partner and his bestie, and said bestie and I have been together now for a long time! We became friends quickly, bonded over our love of Final Fantasy and other games, and before I knew it we were together and didn't wanna be apart.

I think a lot about how I would have never met him in the day to day. We're from different parts of the country and I feel so lucky to have met him.

It is because of FFXIV that I was able to meet him.

When Stormblood released we played early access weekend together as a couple, and since then we've done the same for every expansion. We always take early access weekend to enjoy together.

Life has had many ups and downs since then, I've been dealing with health issues for six years now and some times it feels like I'm just waiting for life to start again. But through everything, he's there, constant, reassuring. I am not religious. But I feel so blessed!

Now Stormblood is my least favorite expansion story wise, but it has so many great moments in it, and one of them is arriving in the Lochs and doing the instance solo instance with Songs of Salt and Suffering playing in the BG. It's a high point in the game for me, and I fondly remember doing the story with my sweet heart and us getting to the Lochs and doing the story while we chatted via Discord, him on his PC, me on my PS4. Songs of Salt and Suffering is still one of my favorite FFXIV songs. And tonight they played it at the Distant Worlds concert, and I got to be there to hear it live with my best friend and love of my life holding my hand the whole time. I get lost in sadness a lot. Chronic illness makes it feel like I'm waiting to die and not living sometimes, but I am so grateful that despite me feeling like I'm falling apart, I have someone that loves me and cares for me, and makes me smile and feel cherished ever day.

And though there is a lot about XIV that disappoints me sometimes, I really do owe a lot to it.

So a big thank you to SE, and the FFXIV devs. I know they'll probably never see this. But I am so thankful. But a SPECIAL thank you to Soken and Arnie Roth. Arnie said Soken was with them last week in Canada and that Soken personally picked out the song list for this round of Distant World, and I am so thankful to him, because it was such a treat to get to hear one of my favorite songs from the first expansion I played throught with the love of my life.

The WoL has just gone through so much that it's On Sight.

Give NO chances.

[terramythos]

the WoL: well ever since that weird digital scientist guy shot a giant doomsday laser at me On Sight you could say i'm a little on edge

[roegadynroost]

It only took me nine years.

i don't think people into the mech porn stuff think it's representative of normal mecha fiction any more than people doing FFXIV gpose porn think that the next raid is going to have a Mindless Hypnoslut debuff

Was organizing some of my files and came across a old gif of Mjna that I really like... and I was looking at how they ruined my Lalafell and Viera when I was doing moonfire stuff too. And man it's so depressing to think about how I'll never get to enjoy my characters in XIV again unless I want to play on PC and figure out mods to mod back in the old models, or if I want to go restart from scratch in XIV mobile. I have lost all respect and faith in CBU3 at this point. Decades of goodwill down the drain. But it's like whatever, cause I'm the only nobody out there that cares. I'm glad that I chronicled some of my adventures here, but I wish I knew they'd butcher everything so bad so that I had the forethought to get more videos. I just find it so unbelievable. And that's not even considering they've just ignored that the game makes people ill because they've turned up contrast and bloom x100 and given folks no way to adjust or toggle it. I had to turn the contrast on my tv all the way down to not get flashbanged into seizureville, and even then the bloom is so bad. And now if I wanna do anything else on my tv I have to switch the settings back because FFXIV it the only thing that has this issue. I can't even watch people stream, or look at my partners monitor if XIV is on because it makes me nauseous.

"I hope Zenos stays dead" well I hope he doesn't, I hope he comes back to life, I hope he dies and comes back to life 20 more times, I hope every time he comes back Zenos haters cry and cancel their subs in droves and have to set up appointments with their therapists to unpack the trauma and emotional whiplash of it all, I hope he dies and comes back once per expansion, I hope there isn't even an attempt at a lore/story explanation for why it keeps happening, I hope Zenos comes back to life for no other reason than this alone

I feel that if I don’t repost this somewhere every year at some point, I’m living my life incorrectly.

What is even..

Some backstory. In FFXIV, for a very short spurt of time, there was a glitch where the upper body of a model would lock and freeze in place while the rest would still perform animations from other emotes and attacks. The results were pretty incredible for those that could get the lock to happen.

It was quickly hot-fixed out, but not quickly enough for the above video to get made, un/fortunately.

Remember where you came from.

[roegadynroost]

I love glitches like this. My favorite that I miss was the one where is you dismounted your mount while strafing your model would be much bigger. My friend had a catboy almost as tall as a femroe and all my femroe were like a head taller.

Practice your Eorzean!

Saw this post and thought hey! Now that's a great idea! So I did it. On the left is the in game font, and on the right is what I'm calling "Simplified Eorzean", where I took the same theory as when you're teaching a kid how to write. My goal was to simplify the shapes and strokes as much as possible, while still making it the same letter. This way it (should) be easier to practice making it in your own handwriting! Under the cut I've placed a stroke/letter guide, and also a blank sheet(With some optional prompts) for practice. Happy writing!

OTL I soloed the Black Regiment critical engagement in a dead instance and it STILL DIDN'T GIVE ME THE RANGER JOB STONE.

Please give it to me. Please. Pleaaaaaase.

Characters who are so compassionate that it borders on self-sacrifice. Characters who are so broken by the cruelty of the world that they make it their mission to save as many people as they can. Characters who don't know how to and don't want to be selfish. Characters who are collapsing on themselves but still devote themselves to others' wellbeing. Characters who hate themselves but have an uncanny ability to see past others' scars and mistakes.

Just... characters who are so hellbent on being kind to others that they don't notice their own self-destruction.
