And another reason I probably won't play FF14. Not because it looks bad, it looks awesome, but it just is too much. It was too much before this expansion, and it is even more after.
Saw Haps's recap.
First full time I'm watching. Glad to share the experience with you Jessup!!🧡🧡🧡
As a massive FF9 fan seeing the Ark, Garnet, and Zidane made my whole day.
hmm I was really hoping the requirements weren't going up that much and it's not a huge jump so that's good. Hopefully will still be getting around 20 fps in busy areas/times/busy fights/etc. Can't afford to upgrade from my current laptop at this time as more important things are needing the money. But it's gonna be fun expansion, even if not playing at high graphic settings to enjoy the really craziness the game can look at high settings and not getting those crazy fps numbers/smooth running, if wanna play a fun game gotta settle on what can get with what have access to :).
Its in Boston, there's a Dunkin every block, and I think 2 in the convention center
So as a huge 9 fan and FF fan and 14 Fan here is some info and connections ive developed over the years.
Shadowbringers' Solus and Emet Selch (and Hades) and the sundering are both taken from the FF9 Garland story and Hades (the original final boss).
Amaurot the city and Dungeon were taken from the final zone in 9, "Memoria" where as you go through it, Garland narrates like Emet did Amaurot.
In general the original unsundered world is very reminicent of Terra from 9.
Spoilers for 9 but this is where i came from with these thoughts.
In 9 Garland was from long in the past, a Genome from Terra made to carry the souls of their people after Terra died with the soul goal of bringing back their people. They fused Terra with Gaia but there were issues and the Terrans souls were merged with the Gaian people. This is all very similar to how the Anchients were sundered and reborn into the new world and Emet wants to rejoin the worlds to save his peoples souls. Also Hades is in Memoria in 9 also and looks identical to his 14 version. Hades was ment to be the original final boss before it was changed last minuet to Necron. Perhaps having Hades as the end of Shadowbringers was their way of doing that original 9 ending they wanted to have.
With Endwalker patch content we did get Zero and the 13th to be reveled as being Memoria which is interesting and im curious where they do with that later. Is the 13th going to be FF9 world?
You do the best coverage of these types of events.
Thanks for the VOD, bro. I missed this stream. >_>
Wish you could have been there with us Jesse!
Given how mounts work for everyone, a mount that would let a lalafell ride someone, would thus also let someone ride a lalafell. 🙃
Just going to have a lala carrying a max height Roe like a sherpa.
Hi new xbox player here, when can I go Lalla hunting?
vaultroom is a JP clothing brand that does their new releases as drops… I pray to anyone who missed a drop and wants to buy stuff off the resale/scalper market.
“ELDEN RING DLC😏😏?”
I was there! I haven’t played 14 (yet), but I went to see Yoshi P & for my 14 playing friends! The passion and hype is contagious!
30 mill people paying what is it $15? D A M N
Can we just talk about how it looks like our man is getting some freaking SLEEP?
You can get a AMD Ryzen 9 7000-Series which is on par to an i9 intel for $350
Seems those “solution nine = ff9” theorists might’ve been onto something, in some regard, eh
I mentioned this when the first teaser dropped, and now that he's talking more about the gameplay changes, I'm so holding onto one thing. There was a stretch of teaser they had that didn't seem to show anything, so most people ignored it. Remember the standoff the WoL had just waiting for an attack, then he fails and gets lit of fire? That was weird to me. He did it again then viper pops out. I can imagine a parrying like system fitting in to keep people on their toes.
Yes, Dunkin Donuts was at PAX!
Such a great guy, setting the launch date so we have a week to play the Elden Ring DLC. You gotta appreciate Yoshida and his sense of humor 😂
edit: Jesse! Keep pushing that Lalafell perched on a Big character emote on the media tour. It needs to happen!
Meanwhile we have Preach pushing for the opt in chat bubbles. We can only hope.
cool
Maybe "improved rewards" will involve a bonfire to throw evil Lalafells into. By which I mean exclusively Dunesfolk. Y'all know what you did.
You gotta do the healer role quests in Endwalker if you want more Fordola and Arenvald!!! Their work and what they do during the final days is so good and so many people miss it because they dont heal :c
I think 9 is going to be the "main" tribute like 4 was for EW. It's not like there weren't plenty of references to other games in the series, but IV was clearly singled out and got the Digital Collector's Edition minion and store mount.
4:25 Your video comparing the game to WoW is what finally sold me on downloading the free trial, and I've been playing ever since. You definitely bumped that number up at least a little bit 🙂
I was playing before Jesse, but he can take credit for me if he wants.
went to this panel and my god it was great to see YoshiP T_T
34:47 I lost it when Yoshi said they delayed it by a week because of the Elden Ring DLC.
Honestly based. Enjoy the game then come back for FFXIV
This journal will be the next Deathnote for the next Ultimate from Zepla.
To answer Jesse's question, Dunkin' Donuts was at PAX. They were handing out $5 gift cards.
You mention how you dont want them to force you to be online more and not wanting to be like WoW, and while I totally agree, FFXIV has the polar opposite problem. There's too many times with too much of the playerbase that feels they have absolutely NO reason to be online at all. That's the issue. It's an MMO that you complete the patch content in 1-2 days a leisurely pace while you now.. have the rest of the month that you paid for with nothing to fill the time with.
For people who have been playing the game for a long time, it's even worse of an issue. And it's also more of an issue if you're not so interested in collecting content or craft/gather content. And want to engage with.. the core MMORPG aspect. There's a vast ocean between FFXIV not giving you a reason to log in at all (aside from maybe your house) and WoW having you log on all the time. People just want a reason to play the game more often and in particular engage with the combat system. Being made to log in more is the last problem FFXIV has.
They stopped doing veteran rewards because they made the very valid point that unless you started playing at launch, you would not be able to collect all the rewards and would never be able to collect newly released ones. That's why the capped it at 1 year and switched everything over to achievement points where you can choose what items you want when you want them.
Also, the Stormblood preorder earrings did work for EVERYTHING up to level 50. They also gave a flat stat boost, so at early levels (up to 35or 40ish IIRC) they hands down are the strongest earrings you can get. And since they work for crafting and gathering, they cost you a little bit in stats, but more than make up for it in exp gain. Great for when you feel the desire to roll up yet another alt for no particular reason…
Elden Ring… 😆 Yoshi-P is a man of culture.
"why final fantasy 9?" in the expac adding a literal zidane class
Jessie over here just wanting a LaLa Papoose.
Run run run jump I can be a backpack while you run
Luckily I get paid on the 26th so I know what I'm getting this month!
1:30 Can we just quickly appreciate that one person in the crowd who is actually mimicking the glow-stick emote?
All I wanted was for jobs to feel unique in playstyle again. From what I've seen, this won't be the case. I hope I'm wrong, but I guess the game isn't for Titanslayers anymore.😅
The earrings apparently actually will give you a bonus while you are at level 90 too, so it should help for at least 1 level on all the other jobs a bit.
To be honst, I'm only interested in that pencil case ^^° That cloth thingy… not sure where to put it… The statue? I already got the paladin one from EW ^^° The journal? Neat! Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut way to small ^^° I'd have that thing full within a week… maybe two…
Really hoping one of the questions the FFXIV team gets asked about is removing the job restrictions from glams
Jesse, they're in Boston – of COURSE Dunkin was there! Probably several Dunkins! 😀
