i live the struggling freelancer illustrator life; if you'd like to help me towards getting a pc i need both for work and memes as well as funding my desire to buy out square enix and name every game's npc estinien weedboy varlineau, here's one way:

to the sprout astro today who used their collective unconscious bubble for its full 18s duration, standing still to protect the tank from the tankbuster in a normal alex raid, i want you to know you made me believe in the magic of video games again

every once in a while i like to fondly remember about how the warrior of light walked away from their highest stakes battle against the living embodiment of despair virtually injury-free, but nearly died because they agreed to a fist fight outside a denny's parking lot with zenos

stop telling yoshi you didn't like the wol taking a step back and playing mentor in dawntrail he's gonna give the wol so much to be depressed about next expansion it will make shadowbringers look like an extended holiday weekend

so the new patch gear's helmet isn't showing on viera? the very new gear you added to the game in 2025 in the newest ffxiv patch isn't showing on viera. the new helmet (new helmet) (new) (new contendt)isnt shwoing on a p;layable race in yo ur game ? hahathat's crazy girl

the low level dungeon i once had in pf where an argument between the healer and the tank boiled down to "you don't pay my sub", and the healer immediately responded with "you shouldn't be paying it either". some form of enlightenment happened that day

need help from all big brain ffxiv players to impart upon me the forbidden knowledge of obscure, side, or job quests that reveal lore not implemented or mentioned in the msq? something that feels important, that people should know, but only the wols having done the quests do

i love wuk lamat because you can visibly see the gears turning behind her eyes when she's thinking. two cogs going whirr whirr whirr behind her big ol' eyes. it's like a typewriter filling in a sentence slowly

the wol's pact with their voidsent HAS to be the safest one in the history of reapers. little guy is getting so much aether, he's turned into the 13th's jeff bezos. not only is he never betraying the wol, he'll refuse to ever leave

thought zenos always speaks in an overly, unnecessarily romantic sort of phrasing, but going back to StB you see he's very normal about how he talks to people. it's your usual baseline fantasy english every npc uses. it's only with the wol he starts being unfathomably weird

ffxiv villains don't put their whole gameussy into trying to kill the warrior of light anymore. we used to have a deranged 240cm virgin chasing us through three expansions just to gut us. a bunch of emo middle-aged men attempting to blow up the known universe. nothing's the same

every ffxiv black mage main i've met has three concurrent mental breakdowns while playing 7d chess with their skill bar and the boss and if you interrupt their train of thought you'll be killed on the spot. they wouldn't change their job for the world. are you ok

knew a blm who'd only use ice spells because they thought you can choose what type of dmg you do (similarly to warcraft) and when they were told you need all of your buttons, they went "nah i think this is cuter". and i genuinely think they're the only ffxiv player to have won

do you think zoraal ja, in all his 30 years of planning and scheming and making detailed battlemaps about eventually taking over the continent, ever thought his sister's new weird friend's friends have a fucking dragon on call

i think each ffxiv server should have the ability to vote if a max-level player on their data center should be forced to go back to arr and redo the entire msq
46
225
2,847
74,246
brave of ffxiv to imply through the narrative that emet selch has always been fond of his dear friend azem and losing them was part of the reason he went homicidal, AND THEN to have a whole side story where hythlodaeus spells out hades' love for azem for all to read

you can't go in low-level dungeons as a healer in ffxiv and expect it to be easy. not because the tank might be new or the dps don't have aoe but because you realize approximately 0.3s before the tank dies that you have no ogcds and you should've started hard casting already
47

i wonder if square enix never chooses a healer as the chosen representative job in each ffxiv expansion because they think that's not a good enough portrayal of a proper warrior. which is funny because all the bloodthirsty people i've met in game have been healers
57
391
2,482
86,607
i fully started and locked in with ffxiv at the middle end of shadowbringers so for quite some time i'd see incredible art of emet selch portrayed as a heartthrob, tragic prince. then i met him and realized you were all fucking lying to me and he's a clown grandpa with good genes

lowkey love how accurate to the characters the trusts are. running it with urianger means you'll get healed and regened the moment things go wrong while he one shots an enemy. running it with alphinaud if alisaie is in the party means you pop sprint and pray

i boot up ffxiv, i wait three minutes and thirty-seven seconds for the starting screen to appear, i log in, i make sure my wol is still cute, i jump twice, i see my onions are fucking dust, i log out. i remember i've forgotten to check my retainers

so you see not only do they make it painfully obvious the real golbez was a shard of the warrior of light but get this. right? *chuckles knowingly* durante's long blonde hair and deep voice as seen and heard in the lunar subterrane dungeon are clearly indicating he's a shard of z

i know it's probably because the ai can't handle it but the fact the scions can't max melee for mechanics or slidecast or the little things players do on the regular is a nice little detail to make the wol seem that much more proficient with combat
26

i just think it's whimsical that the endsinger says "You will be battered and torn and made to crawl. You will weep and wail and curse your impotence. Curse your life as it fades." only a few seconds before the man who told the warrior of light to endure, survive, live shows up

i know some people enjoy the scifi/futuristic glams ffxiv keeps pumping out and, unironically, more power to you because you're getting what you want, but can i PLEASE also occasionally get some fantasy fits too. i want to look like a realm reborn npc with better textures

"occult crescent is the same as eureka and bozja, just reskinned, they should be ashamed" that's what i've been seeing people want ever since endwalker dropped. that's EXACTLY what i've been seeing people complain about and wanting evewr since endwam i going crazy hello? hello???

don't care if you like/hate dawntrail but coming to me when i make a dt-positive post with a "it sucked actually" comment genuinely makes me wonder what you want me to do about it. hope you have better luck with the next one? we can try praying together? what do you want from me

i will say, being a DRG when you start the game/by heavensward must hit differently, having a whole ass enemies to comrades arc with estinien, meanwhile when i unlocked DRG at the end of shadowbringers, it was just estinien pretending not to know me because i'm too cringe

i get not everyone liked Dawntrail, themes/structure/npcs may not have been your thing, but seeing such an alarming amount of people try to push their opinion as the only correct one and that it dictates foundational change in ffxiv is toddler behavior. have some apple slices

so you're telling me if your warrior of light originated in 1.0, they either canonically spent 5 years in stasis between the battle of carteneau & a realm reborn, or were sent 5 years into the future by a grandpa. is that what you're telling me. that the canonical lore is

wuk lamat would have fought zenos, bested him, befriended him, and made him mentally healthy. and that'd be the first day

as someone who hasn't experienced this fight or heard this song, these are some insane lyrics. "no one said that life'd be easy, working hard from nine to five, grinding daily, nightly, weekly, turn to the left to the right, ain't no end in sight" is my green guy ok??

i mean this with all the kindness in the world but some of you have to re-examine your incessant need to go under every dawntrail positive post to write how much you hate it and its characters instead of celebrating the things you enjoy about the game

every scion you bring into the aitioscopia dungeon has a variation of "are we doing this again" to comment before every boss, but even better, when you reach amon the immediate collective response is "bro. come on"

they gave zero and krile minions approximately three nanoseconds after they were seen in a cutscene, meanwhile zenos is tposing across ultima thule's floor and i never even received a mini recreation of his stupid stormblood airfryer armor

ffxiv has managed to make the token human race just as fantasy-like as any other race in the game and i don't know if it's because most players aren't hyur, or their lack of frequent prominent msq roles? miqo'te feel more like they play the part humans do in most other games

dawntrail was tasked with bringing an entire cast of new main characters into the same space as a decade-old story strong enough to leave the first crumbs of something that will unfold in the next many expansions, and it did it masterfully without erasing the past

DT made me ponder how people hating a female character's personality would love them if they were male, and then i came to the realization zenos being female would have absolutely no consequence on whether the fanbase likes/hates him more. feral creature beyond gender's touch

the exarch moment raha had in endwalker taking leadership in a time of panic is the kind of thing i want to see more of in future content. he's got a second chance at life to be a silly little red tabby but 100 years of experience and life stick with you

you don't understand how much i love their dynamic how much they clash and don't go together that it goes full circle and they become the perfect comedic duo. funniest character dynamic in the entire game

that it took a man's pure hatred and sorrow to have the alliance finally decide to help with ala mhigo, that they'd have stayed their hands had ilberd not orchestrated shinryu's birth, that it took countless sacrifices for a change to happen. kinda. it kinda. it. a little bit

the truth is ffxiv reached peak cuntness in its gear with the neo-ishgardian designs and we have lost the good teachings of the bible ever since. not only are we godless, jesusless, and spiritless, we are also (worst offender of all) ugly as shit

i love estinien because he never knows what's going on outside heavensward, partially because he tends to fuck off mid-msq

1,883
38,308
idk man i think it's a good thing we had lamaty'i take the lead in dawntrail because knowing most wols, mine included, the moment the first bitch started acting up there wouldn't be peace talks for further understanding but the story ending right there with an extreme trial

final fantasy xiv is in dire need of stupid villains. the narrative NEEDS a dumb evil guy trying to pull his evil plans through at all times and keep failing or the game loses its soul

ffxiv needs more player agency. random example but during the dinner scene in endwalker i would've chosen to start slurping the soup super loudly while fandaniel does some exposition and i think not being able to do that really took me out of the experience

the fact the only reason we were able to breathe and move in ultima thule was because thancred's dying wish, so fervent it became reality through dynamis, was for us to survive. the way this fucker is so badass he was the last one standing through meteia's aether-depleting attack

i log in ffxiv, people complain the glamour system works a lot better in wow because all pieces get saved with no hustle. i log in wow, people complain the transmog system works a lot better in ffxiv because you can dye armor and pick your fashion despite your class. me? i yodel

how heartwarming that alisaie and g'raha, the two scions who have always looked up to you as their big shining hero, are also the ones to often take a second and point out the constant burdens thrown at you yet again in the name of others, and how they'll be there to help

when i very first got into ffxiv and i wasn't even done playing ARR, i mentioned in the novice network how pretty the golden cloud mount was and a mentor gifted it to me less than four minutes later without saying anything. that's really stayed with me

modern clothes are great and all and can be explained away with s9 but by god we've had enough. we've had enough. i have a full 21st century wardrobe in hit mmorpg final fantasy xiv a realm reborn and not a single non-neo ishgardian corset. just a corset. give me one corset. plea

nvm
ffxiv villains don't put their whole gameussy into trying to kill the warrior of light anymore. we used to have a deranged 240cm virgin chasing us through three expansions just to gut us. a bunch of emo middle-aged men attempting to blow up the known universe. nothing's the same

always impressed at ffxiv's ability to add horror to certain aspects of its story. if they ever decided to go all out... frothing at the mouth at a possible expansion fully focused on this unique type of horror endwalker and dawntrail have given us a taste for
23
204
1,532
43,318
i gloss over it too much for how mind-boggling it actually is; estinien being nearly on par with the warrior of light's fighting prowess as someone who hasn't had a shitton of shards rejoined into their soul like an esoterical disco is insane. give him a gun and any threat's over
26
133
1,707
48,524
the possibility of ffxiv ever implementing different cutscenes for personal moments of reflection instead of using g'raha for most of them is interesting because i think if your bestie is estinien he just offers to hit the blunt with you. no matter the circumstance or who died
