Love this format. Great dress, Evi! More FF14 videos, please!
how you guys can lost a email/account in the mog station? Back in my day in the 1.x I need to buy the key in a shady 3rd party site, because the game don't sell officially in my country, pass to all the process (how at the time is mixed with the FFXI account) to finally have it. And at the time my English was 20x worst that now.
Not a fan of FF, bit still a nice video.
Has Tali made it through Shadowbringers yet? I didn't expect anything to top Heavensward but good lord, it's sublime.
Loved the content and how you made the video (just a chat)
Great video
and her answer was Naaaa makes sense lol
If you can pass this to Square Enix. I stopped playing because returning to the game is impossible as you can't log in, retrieve your account, or pay for a subscription once you stopped logging in every day. So I won't play this game ever again. Thank you
I want this video again once she gets through each expansion. Do a Heavensward video, then a Stormblood video Ect..
Yay Dancer! They are so much fun!
lvling a Arcanists will give you a 2 for 1 both healer / dps lvl at the same time and you get a mount like not sure why they get so much love but worth lvling first i think .
Wait tickets!?
Tali, are you going to head straight into Endwalker MSQ, or will you level Reaper/Sage first, and then do the story? What are you doing first thing?
As someone who skipped all of the ARR story and so had to pick up the pieces in Heavensward onwards. Hearing this discussion has me thinking that it may be worth going back through it on NG+
Good to see you guys branching out – hitching your wagon just to Wow would be a mistake.
I absolutely love this video! That’s a long time final fantasy 14 player, it always gives my heart some joy to see people playing the game, especially new people. I might check out that stream every now and then, best of luck!
Finally…
The moment the story clicked for me was when SPOILERS YA KNOW the Waking Sands was raided. I was just merrily trotting along, granting wishes as you do, then bam, mass murder! and check the bodies to see how many of your friends are dead. That was the moment I sank right into the story with big feelings. Then of course, Ul'dah also being my favorite city, I was gutted at the end of ARR. I quite liked ARR, I wouldn't call it disappointing at all – of course, I'm only halfway through Heavensward so I can't make comparisons, but my main thought was if long-time players kinda crap on ARR as the most inferior part of the game (and I liked it a lot), this is gonna be awesome.
Allright, i bought it 😀 havent really played wow in more than a year.
cant wait to try it 🙂
Cool new format.
All the people talking about loving the story in FF14 makes me, once again, really want to recommend The Secret World. Please try it, the stories, all the quests, even side ones, just amazing. (combat not great, but eeehhhhh)
i forgot to get the magiteck key too the first time. lol
If you wanna see credits every 5 minutes play Metal Gear Solid 5 LOL
What I loved most about this videos is that it was almost podcast-like. I listened to it in the background while I got some work done. Love it!
They never touched the Dessert!
T&E, you might’ve answered this before but I’m curious if either of you played RuneScape (old school RuneScape). Evi said she didn’t play JRPGs but I’m curious about RuneScape and what your thoughts are! (Also your British so pretty sure you legally have to have tried it at least once :D) /s
I'm amazed anyone got past the first 10 levels of FFXIV, I get motion sick within 20 minutes and annoyed by the leveling mechanics/character movement/animations within 30.
This was incredibly charming and loved hearing y'all's thoughts. Hope to see the format again!
As someone who had BAD tanking/healing anxiety due to how WoW pugs behave toward people learning the role, FFXIV has been therapeutic by comparison. I've gotten to where I'm genuinely excited for Sage so I can heal dungeons and raids, both in Trusts and with other players. Every time I log in, my FC greets me and we jump into roulettes or Heaven on High or Palace of the Dead, or just chitchat while I do my gathering or side quests (or progress in MSQ on my lalafell who'll be my new main in Endwalker). It has many, many things I've missed in WoW for a long time.
There are tickets to teleport to the waking sands?!?!??
