I've fallen foul of a misinfo! Misremembered info that was explained to me re post 3.x & beyond patch content XP. It's edited out of this video now, but it can take YouTube a little while before changes hit the life video. ARGH! Sorry!
"I do have a 65-incher" Bellular – 2021
Something to know about the ARR patch quests: in 5.2 (I think) they trimmed it down A LOT. about 20%-30% of the quest content has been cut entirely when they revamped ARR to streamline the leveling there. Before 5.2, there were a few level walls and a loooooot of clearly garbage quests. Older players remember the feeling of those still, and that heavily colors their perception of that slog, because back then it was. Now it's pretty smooth but it used to be very, very rough.
Also something I recommend not doing is leveling multiple jobs at the start. Reason being you get better exp when you have a job maxed out or decently above the rest because armory bonus. If you’re not enjoying the job you’re playing yeah try something else out. Getting out of ARR at a decent pace highly recommended people who stay in that content too long end to burn out and quit before they really get invested because you’re just stagnating your own experience

“Sure, Ill watch this”
Wanna know what a big filter for me was?
The Heavensward expansion. I just wasn't getting into the story. There's, like, one good House, and the rest of the politics stuff was just horsecrap douchebaggery, IMO.
I'm just now getting into the post-credit, pre-Stormbringer stuffs now.
I loved the ARR voices of Merlwyb and Urianger, and I liked Alphinaud as well. Merlwyb because she sounded so perfect the role of a pirate captain turned maritime nation leader. Every line of her dialogue was written perfectly, always using maritime phrases. Urianger I think I loved mostly because the voice actor is the same as Lor'themar Theron, and he's doing the exact same voice for Urianger, but with ye olde speak to boot, and I loved it.
Personally, I was terribly disappointed that they'd entirely changed the voice cast in Heavensward. Alphinaud and Urianger's voices are different but not worse, still taking some getting used to. But most of the others are quite a bit worse. (except Minfilia, haven't gotten to her post-ARR voice yet, but there is literally nowhere to go but up from ARR Minfilia) Merlwyb sounds so much worse, Raubahn sounds somewhat worse, and so on.
I will say there are a number of other voice actors in Heavensward that are amazing, such as the obviously amazing Count Fortemps, as well as Lord Haurchefant and Aymeric.
I too wear my rings on my head, Belluar.
Don't stress too much.

TL;DW: Try to overcome your wow-brainrot and read
If you want to level crafting and gathering, do them all at the same time to reuse the same gear.
Ideally keep gatherers (Miner, Botanist and Fisher) 5 levels above your crafters, because some recipes require items slightly higher level.
I just call the meteor survivor trailer guy.
Because he is trailer guy
When you are in vesper bay do the blue quests to unlock glamor and using dyes and some dungoens
yes! understand the ARR trailer immensely help you at the beginning of your adventures. I honestly didn't skip the MSQ dialogues, but I was having a hard time understanding why the NPCs glorify Louisoix. The only thing I know was, he is the twin's grandpa. And to make things worst, I didn't do coil until at the end of heavenward. So, I didn't know how he looks like. I started to know who he is, and how crucial he is in ARR when I saw Louisoix minion, and I instantly watch youtube to find a video that explain the ARR trailer.
Gaius maybe an antagonist but he is a good guy.
(1.0 he helped us)
outro music??
Retainers are free trial limited. A note would help the trial players.
As you level your chocobo enough, itll hit a point where it doesnt gain more exp unless u do a certain thing to make it level up. You can search up what that is, but it involves having a house or fc house with a stable.
These videos are so lame. Just a grab at cash
@Bellular , do you love GoT? check it out!…. you will be pleasantly surprise at the familiar voice as you go through the MSQ. "Wait… what?!!!" I got that happening to me. As myself is an avid fan of GoT. this is no spoilers since i'm talking about GoT and VA. Not any of FFXIV content…. thats to show just how committed the devs are to deliver a master piece. This is for the english voice over, obviously.
The real reason why voice acting was terrible in ARR was because of budget (they have to literally remake a bad game into a good game), and when the game did alright and got in the money the invested it back into the game hence better voice acting. You can see an ongoing trend of things getting better because money are invested back into the game. Unlike some games, who thinks about profit and keeping profit for themselves.
