>final hrt xiv
Nanamo was much sadder if they actually kept it that way
who? another irrelevant character we're meant to give any shit about?
Honestly the only person that doesn't know who that is are people that bought the story skip. You didn't do that, did you?
no, i didn't skip. I think you one should remove her from the game. And moonbryde. And a dozen other characters.
Lmao so you do know, you were merely pretending
I don't really agree. She's integral to the story and our window into the perspective of the "cultists" and dragons. She's like the first person you meet that introduces the idea that the Ishgard monarchy isn't telling the whole truth
>Lmao so you do know, you were merely pretending
Yes, but I don't give a shit about her. The only key, one could argue npc character is the Emet-selch. And obviously the crystal mommy. They even fricked over and failed the Empire. Biggest disappointment in the story is the Empire.
>I don't really agree.
Fine. You're allowed to have an opinion, obviously.
>She's integral to the story
Absolutely not. kek. She is a minor NPC that becomes absolutely irrelevant precisely one quest after she is ded. Which means she was irrelevant all along. Like papalymo.
>our window into the perspective of the "cultists" and dragons.
Which is wrong. Cultists are irrelevant and dragon perspective turns out to be wrong as we learn later on, in the following expansions. Which is also obvious during Heavensward itself, because you get to talk to dragons yourself too.
>She's like the first person you meet that introduces the idea that the Ishgard monarchy isn't telling the whole truth
Well, it should be obvious to the anybody, who has a functioning brain, that the monarchy is not good. Ofc it isn't telling the whole truth, we can see it in the end of ARR, when we learn about some of the families of Ishgard.
>Cultists are irrelevant and dragon perspective
homie that's like half of what Heavansward is about. It's not irrelevant at all
They named half of the expansion Dragonsong FFS
>it should be obvious to the anybody, who has a functioning brain, that the monarchy is not good
Lmao that's not even what I said. I said it's the first hint that the monarchy is based on a lie and founded by power lust which is obviously a bit different from just seeing them treat their people like shit
>homie that's like half of what Heavansward is about.
And I'm that anon, who believes, that half of MSQ should be cut out and thrown into the dumpster. It's too overstretched while not having any real influence of any of the events later on in the game. Just for this particular reason. This bs is not part of MSQ, because it turns out in the later expansions, that MSQ is about completely different shit anyway. And dragons.. well, you know what dragons do in SHB and EW yourself.
>It's not irrelevant at all
it is. it has no influence of any of the following events AND we would do it ourselves anyway. With or without those NPCs or quests. We just get to watch "their" irrelevant story inside of a bigger story. Do 1 quest instead:
>that b***h thinks she dragon primal
>group up and kill
>move on.
>They named half of the expansion Dragonsong FFS
yeah, boring, overstretched, no influence. turns out dragons can't do shit anyway, not in the face of the true story anyway. Not even powerful dragons like Tiamat play a role. All side characters to stretch the boring shit out.
> I said it's the first hint that the monarchy is based on a lie and founded by power lust which is obviously a bit different from just seeing them treat their people like shit
A random NPC on the street could tell you that. Any Garlean could tell you that, to thicken the plot. Lucia could have told you that, it wouldn't change anything in the story.
Problem is, the entire Heavensward is irrelevant in the bigger context of MSQ. What's worse are the dragon balls.. eyes. Because what's the fricking point of all of it? Stormblood be like: >dragonballs? lel kek gaygets
HEAVENSWARD HAS FALLEN
BILLIONS MUST DIE
We get it, you're incredibly triggered by her for some reason.
>We get it, you're incredibly triggered by her for some reason.
No. She is a useless character. I'm triggered by the shitty writing and god-awful MSQ throughout the 6 expansions. Even WoW wasn't that bad with their continuity and the WoW's story is moronic as frick.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chekhov%27s_gun
you know.
>Even WoW wasn't that bad with their continuity
you have absolutely no clue what it is you're even complaining about
too much useless bloat in the FF14 MSQ. Not even the Stormblood MSQ has any relevance in SHB and EW. But SHB and EW are directly tied to the fricking ARR for example.
What are you even sperging out about?
"iceheart was useless and irrelevant and FFXIV has bad continuity" is him stringing completely random and irrelevant sentences together and asking to be taken seriously as criticism
those are facts. I don't care, if you personally dislike it. There is a reason the 14th story is considered mediocre at best.
alguem br?
>alguem br
Black person, you wot?
because they're only there to stretch the balls of the story for no good reason. with or without them we'd kill ascians. with or without them we'll defeat dragons. we or without them we''ll defeat primals. those are all instances anyway.
Shame they lost the balls to kill characters after heavensward.
They even went back and unkilled characters heavensward killed. FFXIV is better if you just stop playing after heavensward.
Haurcefant's death wasnt that sad. He went down fighting.
His dad's reaction to it was sad though. Excellent voice acting.
RIP
yeah he delivered it so well that I wasn't really sad until that moment and just his speech with his back turned away got me choked up
Edmont's VA is absolutely brilliant.
HW still has the best narrations because of him.
Are you serious? Ysayle's death was terrible written and executed. I have no idea why people jerk off HW so much for its writing.
If the EW team wrote HW, Ysayle would live, Haucherfaunt would live, some squire introduced 5 mins ago would die, Hraesvelgr would be convinced with a speech about hope, Ishgardians wouldn't need extra convincing to accept peace with the dragons, Nanamo would step down and introduce her naive merchant republic with 0 consequences or nuance
>Nanamo would step down and introduce her naive merchant republic with 0 consequences or nuance
How many more fricking cutscenes of garleans b***hing that we're saving them too fast do you need?
I liked Heavensward's story despite some of its shortcomings. I hate that Haurchefant's death gets so circle jerked and overhyped. He was a bro, but people take it too far.
People like him because he's our only ally at the worst time for us in context. He takes immense personal risk in vouching for us and dies for it.
This c**t bard sat on xer friend's grave just for a tik tok video
Haurchefant helped us in a really bad time, vouched for us, when he saw Ser Charibert attacking us, attacked Charibert instead of branding us heretics and killing us.
Haurchefant wasnt just an ally, he was an unquestionably loyal friend. I am sad at the fact that we couldnt kill Ser Zephyirin with our own two hands for the crime he committed against us.
he also wanted to pipe us
god bless his soul
Should have joined the scion instead of the homosexual dragoon
I felt sad after Tesleen, even if we didn't spend much time with her. It was more like feeling bad for Alisaie
This game is so embarrassingly safe now it actually disgust me.
One thing that especially grind my gears is how all new jobs must begin in ARR zones because crystal players scream and shit their pants whenever they have to leave ARR cities. How dare jobs starting at level 80 be from Ishgard, Kugane or Eulmore, we could have had a job from the First they love so much, but nah, Uldah again. All because of fricking DRK starting in Ishgard, a city from the same expansion as the job, like they'd be forced to do that again during the fifth.
Viper is supposed to be techniques from the new world, I wonder how they'll justify putting it in Gridania.
same way they justified a hingan samurai in ul'dah or a bozjan gunbreaker in gridania
I felt bad sacrificing Ejika
I will never feel bad for any of these guys, frick 'em, they tried to kill me.
>b-but it's for le good cause
tell your copes to the edge of my blade.
troony guys queue popped after 76 minutes
i figured most "troony troony troony" posters were just underaged after seeing it take off swiftly on kiwi farms
It was cool having a primal help out for once instead of being a trial and then dead
venturing around with estinien, alphi and ysayle was cozy, hope dawntrail can replicate a similar feeling.
time is running out
I have a pvp title that's twice as rare at this point. I might grind it out when they add more courses but for now I'm happy with the 20 wins I got in the first few days
>add more courses
bro, it's going away at the end of the year.
It's coming back periodically, though no clue if they're actually going to add anything to it
They won't, they already spent a lot of dev budget on it. It'll come back once or twice per expac as a filler event, which will be good, but not with changes
there's the non-zero possibility that the fall guys event will outlast the actual fall guys game
Because you're a waifugay. Haurchefant was the first character in the setting to treat the Warrior of Light like a person instead of like a weapon to be directed at their enemies (even Minfillia was guilty of this and she was probably the most empathetic otherwise, and Estinien called Alphinaud out on this later). There's a reason why the WoL tends to remember him the most when it comes to the losses in their life.
They did Ysayle dirty.
What's even more dirty is releasing her outfit on Mogstation and not even giving you the hair style.
1 - you could already closely resemble her outfit using pre-existing items
2 - Her hairstyle has been available as a mod for years
>as a mod
bro you can literally use anemonoenmenemonemeonemeoneomennesis to use her hairstyle.
i wouldn't really discount anamnesis as a mod since it's still mucking with char data
Speak like a human or don't speak at all you dumb potato Black person.
are mew angwy wiff mew?
Yeah I'm sad too, thinking they could sell her outfit in the mogstation even though it's just a regular outfit.
>ruins ur gear
Who do these belong to?
Fending, maiming and scouting
aiming striking scouting
Glad more people hate how every armor set is a long coat or robe nowadays. I remember bringing this up and it was like no one noticed it before. My supposition is they do it because long coats are unisex and they can just reuse the same basic model for both male and female characters, but once you see it you can't unsee it. The coats are everywhere.
*every armor set for casters
We got a metric frickton of plate armor for tanks and maiming, same as we usually do
Buttcape optional
I want to impregnate a Lalafell
pregnant shortstacks are god tier
My wife Krile
I really hope her new outfit is cute
Ysayle was so based and her death was a big factor in me burning out early into SB and never touching the game again
Stormblood really goes out of its way to make Garleans the most miserable, deluded, insanely evil faction in Hydaelyn, huh? Save for a few, I'm shocked why the world at large has not created an alliance to wipe these dogs from the face of the earth, Magitek aside simply learning it would be a 20 year affair at most. Ilsaberd was filled with fricking farmers for fricks sake, they managed to learn it. Honorable and noble Garleans are too far and few to be suffered to live
finish the story
it's ok because the writers retcon it all anyway by saying garlemald is a big empire with lots of provinces and legions that don't all share the same goal. not all garleans and all that. too bad we'll never see it in the end because the writers got too tired of writing about garlemald and decided to randomly abandon it to start writing the end of the hydaelyn zodiark arc instead
the "provinces" are just conquered nations who would probably prefer their freedom to being icechimp slaves.
i'm obviously not talking about the provincials themselves since the topic was about actual garleans. what i meant was that not all provinces had garlean overseers that treated them as badly as doma and ala mhigo
Why try to complain that a real-world empire's logistical workings (keeping all territories and provinces on the same page politically and ideologically) is fricking impossible, especially when nearly every territory held by Garlemald thoroughly resents them. Go look up Roman history you stupid homosexual
you will wear the circlets and butt capes.
you will wear the asymmetrical melee gear.
you will play fall guys and say trans rights.
and you will keep subscribing to the game monthly.
you will worship trannies and obsessively demand everyone talk about them every waking second of your life
well yeah, I play FFXIV! We all support our brothers and sisters here.
>auto-saged
He strikes again.
might be time to ask what the frick is going on in IRC
It's likely the same person who's spent years removing XIV threads because he's a massive WoW fanatic
even with that in mind if it's brought to the attention of other mods it should be pretty simple to get him to fricking behave, think I_AM_ABIB getting curtailed when he was being a gigantic penis head about SCP threads (sadly not quickly enough to prevent him killing the game's presence)
Generals go on /vg/ will be your answer.
i will get banned from the IRC if given that answer because i will ask to know why the frick so-and-so other threads are allowed daily and they will talk shit about me being uppity once i'm no longer around to see them
Weird how this rule never applies to all the other games and franchises with generals that are constantly talked about on Ganker. They don't even remove Pokemon threads and threads about old games despite them having their own entire boards.
VIDEO GAMES?
ON MY Ganker?
Bye bye thread
