R'ollo is CORRECT AND HE SHOULD SAY IT
Eulogia was basically just Eden's Promise again
Easily a Mamool Ja stan. Vanadiel us still the superior world and lore. Ffxiv is so steeped in crossover and selfsuck content it lost all its identity.
Scholars 'eating' the fairy is basically what the guy from the ARR Summoner questline does to his egis to get more powerful and it kind of drives me nuts that SMN will never get to do but SCH gets when it's not relevant to their job questline at all.
I didn't like a large amount of things in this patch. The aether balls definitely being one of them. The Ironworks are being used as an excuse to not tell more story. I didn't like it because of the lack of struggle or process. It was yet another "we needed to do the impossible so I just went and asked Cid and he did it". Similar to the "armor" for the warding scales that wasn't even present on the models they showed later.
I was unhappy about 6.5 basically being a re-dressed copy of 6.4 and they even made us to the "talk to the locals so we don't scare them when we shoot aether from a tower". That was not only a serious waste of time and pure filler but it was also just plain stupid. Amh Areng connects directly to lakeland geographically. We were forced to go to the equivalents of Limsa Lominsa and Gridania to ask permission to do something thousands of miles from either of them. Neither of them would have known. "We don't need to worry about the Viis because the light isn't going through their territory". It didn't go through either of the other's territories or even time zones either.
He's also 100% correct that G'Raha ignoring Lyna is a serious oversight and no, they aren't dead to each other, it's just a dropped plot.
31:56 I've encountered this bug. I kind of looks like Zero is rubberbanding a bit in a cutscene. Apart from ReShade, I have no third party apps or modifications installed. So I suppose it has to be something else, because ReShade is quite non-invasive as far as I understand.
Maela's avatar is how I felt about all of Endwalker. I blame Shadowbringers.
As one who did not play before FF series… I feel always as if I miss out on nostalgia moments and recognitions/catching references and I don't like that >.<
Ivalice was terrible for me for that reason…… So I hope they stop doing that…….. But then again, people complained FF16 was too unique without nostalgia, so nobody is ever happy.
Also… it is so obvious the guy in the end is somebody from new job because it was similar to Gosetsu, and once the MSQ comes out next, it is already known.
I really like the final alliance raid .. but every time I see the final boss I get flashbacks of that one Friends episode where Joey wears all Chandlers clothes 😀
I liked Eulogia's design, the maximality reminded me of Bhunivelze (even without the checkerboard motif)
1:05:00 I've thought Durante was Zenos shard since we saw him, and I liked that idea personally!
1:22:30 oh shit Maela, I never thought of that!! I kinda like that!!!
1:29:40 lmao I do get that, but that happens to us to! And to me I took it as she is the Warrior of (Literal) Light to save the 13th, which I liked!
I think Durante has more G'raha Tia similarities than Zenos
XIV servers are like that spiderman scene where he is holding a train, cept spidey is holding two strings of code that prevent the servers from exploding.
but hey this has precedent, remember back in HW when dungeons could get a 5th member randomly because servers were melting? I guess they never actually fixed it completely afterall.
SPEAK YOUR TRUTH ROLLO, THE UWU-IFCATION OF GRAHA HAS GONE TOO FAR
