Good Morning! Time to dig into the vod
3:10:02 "I can look after myself you know"
Looking forward to the next patch~
Only scrolling thru the vod cus I'm outside but did they finish 5.4? I swear there's more or are they gonna do a part 2 stream?
Never thought about it before but now that you mention GMM, other than the facial hair there's a decent resemblance. Another great bromance.
The true beginning and end of this patch 1:29:40 and ending in 2:28:09 .
4:11:00 So that's what the back room of a Sweet Factory looks like.
Graha basically repeats his lines from when you met him first time. When you were looking for aethersand to polish crystals to get entry into Crystal Tower.
So the description Y'shtola gives Matoya of "Stubborn, haughty, eccentric, irascible, laconic, annoying"… If you take the first letter of each of them you get the name "Sheila" which is the first name of Matoya's English VA Sheila Steafel who passed away on the 23rd of August 2019 while 5.4 released on the 8th of December 2020.
A nice tribute to a VA who voiced a character beloved by the community.
All the bar talk at the start of the vod has a single carved oak bar for 13k in the suggested things YouTube is shilling at me
I remember how gobsmacked I was at the time that they actually implemented the cure for tempering. Having played since 2.0, I'd long since accepted the in-universe statement that it couldn't be reversed.
And on a meta narrative level, the threat of tempering has always been such a great storytelling tool. Yet the writing team willingly tossed it aside here.
The balls to so fundamentally change your gameworld is not often seen in games, let alone in MMORPGs where old threats seem to show up again and again.
3:10:45 – perfect explanation! LMAO
Can someone please share the link of the second stream?
Catching up on what I missed on the vod and Kyle, Krile was mentioning archons knowing each other because of Paplymo. She assumed that at some point Graha and Papalymo had crossed paths, thus assumed Lyse would also know of him.
FFXIV constantly says: respect peoples chosen names, no matter why they change
I feel like I'm the only one who prefers unfrosted Pop Tarts. Finding unfrosted Blueberry in stock at a regular grocery store is like a rare antique at a yard sale for me.
2:09:08 What happens when you have bad kerning? You get keming.
3:07:24 it’s not the scroll speed that might be the problem, but the auto advance delay between text boxes. During any cutscene with auto advance on, press Tab or Shift Tab to adjust the speed.
This dungeon holds a special place in the hearts of my friends and I, as we discovered a bug that was hotfixed the next day in the first week. To quote my friend's tweet, "tl;dr died before the windy mechanic in matoya's, didn't bother getting up until after it and it didn't… cleanse the debuff lmao even released after the fight and the debuff is gone but the force movement is still there"
I was in call when this happened and trying to help troubleshoot. Luckily we had video evidence and the player it happened to has been playing since 1.0. It was mostly funny.
Nero is the Tony Stark of FFXIV. Remember his red and gold armor, after all.
Loved the voice during the allagan projection part. felt like u guys were playing SWTOR, haha!!!
the stuff with Owen gets me so bad, man
If I ever find myself having a chihuahua, I will name them Ga Bu without any hesitation
Garrett: I apologize for what you're all about to see
goofy discord profile pic pops up
This is really weird…but I think the reason Cid sounds different here is that they had Thancred's voice actor covering for him this time? I never would have guessed while it was active–at the time, my friends and I thought Cid's actor might have had a cold or some other issue affecting his voice. But listening to it without seeing their faces, it sounded VERY VERY much like Thancred's VA (Peter Bramhill) intentionally speaking in a much darker, rougher voice than his usual one.
Given this patch was so heavily affected by COVID, it's no real surprise that they had to make do with what they could.
I've always been extremely tickled by Insatiable kicking in when you're fighting a freaking giant porxie as well. It's just so ridiculous.
Amon is the name of a demon. Specifically, and feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, Amon is one of the 72 Demons of Solomon.
Fun fact: cats purr as a reaction to positive or negative stimulus. It is a calming mechanism and the frequency of a cats purr stimulates healing. Not kidding, y'all should look it up
. That said, per lore, unfortunately, Miqo'te do not purr. For the record also, the new map navigation is most advantageous to us controller or game pad users. Not necessarily mouse users. They did change MANY of the voice actors from A Realm Reborn including Cid. I think only a handful of voice actors remained from the original game. Small chance since you love all this pirate stuff, do you recognize a character called Eizen from Tales of Bersaria or Zesteria he was a character in both. I've got a character modeled after him named Eizen Van'eltia.
I'm so glad my friends and I aren't the only ones who don't make the Black Betty joke with Thanalan
I would love to have a series called Grinding Gear Comics
3:00:00 Shoutout to @JoCat for this part he almost spoiled in the podcast way back.
Amon is a demon from the key of Solomon, which is why it's usually used for rpg villains
i love zapp brannigan
I love how Garrett's Cid voice is just a Matt Berry / Laszlow Cravensworth from WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS
Ok, further on in and i hear the Zapp Brannigan, too
1:29:43
To be fair Miqo'te do purr if you ever seen some of the Miqo'te NPCs roll their R's actually. In the French dub of the game G'raha actually does in the talking cutscenes, my friend showed me the cutscenes of him talking
I'm like why doesn't he do that in the english dub!? Lol
I can't believe I forgot Tataru built her own airship.
