      I genuinely enjoy Bard more than a lot of the static jobs such as Samurai, Reaper or even worse fricking Machinist, I can't be the only one? I fricking HATE the idea of everything being perfectly mapped out with nonexistant procs. I actually hate that autistic design mentality and think jobs that stray from that norm and are more proc based but still have the usual resource building/management are just more fun. I genuinely hope Corsair and the other job in Dawntrail has something like that.

        It boggles my mind how they went from the fantastic saint seiya gear from aglaia to painfully mid sets for the other two. What the frick happened? Same deal with Abyssos being the only good raid set this tier by a VERY wide margin.

                heart of sabik was Ultima, which is its own sort of weird frickery I'm iffy about
                but to be fair as the primary antagonist beyond even the garleans and whole dragon war shit, it isn't very surprising that the ancients were behind everything. but the fact that they quickly, QUICKLY just brush all pretenses aside and go "yes yes, see it was us the entire time, we made the allagans and then made them fall, and we made the empire and now they're repeating their fall" was really just a bit much.

                then you find out the end of the world and the basis for everything in 14's plot ever, countless worlds destroyed afterwards even, was because one really depressed ancient guy made a dumb feelgood science experiment with a flawed thesis and question and then got so depressed that he was willing to let the universe die. and oh by the way, he was the one Ascian not part of the main trio that somehow wasn't tempered by Zodiark afterwards (or was and said frick it anyway) and then happened to be a fricking raid series boss from Crystal Tower and went "man you're fricking up the allagan empire I helped built? GUESS THE WORLD IS ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK HAHAHA"

                There is no content drought.
                The game has just stuck to a formula for so long it has gotten boring.
                The "content" that is lacking is more reused assets, less unique dungeon sets,etc.

          The concept is solid, but being constrained to a handful of quests every few months that needed to be resolved as quickly as they're introduced with the barest minimum of plot threads keeping them together killed any pacing it might have had. 6.1-6.5 has been a shitty mini-expansion dripfed to us over 2 years.

          It's not the concept people have a problem with, you illiterate Black person, it's the godawful execution. I've been wanting them to explore the Void since ARR and the 6.X series has been the biggest monkey's paw possible. Instead of getting an expansion devoted to the lore and the mechanics of the Void, we get rushjob flashbacks about nobodies and lame FFIV fanservice (aside from the songs, but Soken carrying everything is not new nor an excuse) including a piss-poor interpretation of Golbez.
          And even if something could potentially be made out of that poor premise, Zero's there to make sure that whatever nuggets of gold may be mined from this story are buried underneath her turd of a "what is friendship" bullshit character arc that is so contradictory to all previously established lore and even itself that it actively drags down the entire concept of the Void. Frick FFXIV's Lightning, and frick morons like you for defending anything even remotely related to her.

          It's a trial sidequest series laboriously stretched out to fit 5 patches of MSQ.

          Even better we didn't get a trial series at all, so there's just less story content on the whole.

            NTA but in hindsight I realized everything G'raha did in EW to "save the day" was shit put there literally so he'd do something at all. Like the fricking Tower of Zot banishes for no reason (the Tower of Babil didn't, it's still fricking there even now), and then it turns out that G'raha of all people has a spell no one else knows that he learned 5 minutes before while he was supposed to be looking for something else and that apparently he can now cast with enough proficiency to save 1000 elephants from falling. And you're telling me neither Y'shtola, Alphinaud or Urianger ever thought to look up this apparently super useful spell with no casting range limit that can be learned in a minute? Not even after Y'shtola almost died falling down a hole?
            And the whole "G'raha brings Exarch authority back" shit always upset me anyway because everyone gets told to run, they don't run because they're panicking, then G'raha says to run and they all run because he's standing a bit straighter now.

          Emetroons forever in shambles over Hermes being justified by the actions of WoL and Zenos. A sad researcher inadvertently saved humanity with his roundabout actions by simply asking questions no one else considered. This fact angers the shadowbabs and emetroons who thought his biased memory of Amaurot and ancient life was 1:1 with the real deal.

            Being justified in retrospect doesn't change the fact that he was meant to be the best researcher they had, given that he was up for promotion to head of the entire facility, but his actions directly contradicted his apparent 'experience'. If he was just some apprentice frick who made meteion secretly with many faults, this wouldn't be a problem.

          I do remember that theory, but I always found it a bit of a hard sell. In part because Emet-Selch would have had a different reaction to rescuing her from the Lifestream, in part because Hythlodaeus came across as more carefree than Y'shtola, and in part because Y'shtola getting kidnapped by Elidibus and brought into Amaurot probably should have resulted in her meeting the memory shadow and having some sort of acknowledgement.

              Since they actually talk about you using the crystal in cutscenes now, the more likely thing to happen is when trusts come in you still summon people with the crystal they're just generic "hero from another world 3"

      What's worse is I need one more as well, and have missed it 4 fricking times. I was online, I was there, but because of the Instanced nature of this game, the Instance was congested and I couldn't get to the fight....4 fricking times this has happened to me, of course it's not congested as soon as the fight is over.
      I know something that would solve that problem, have it spawn on all Instances at the same fricking time. FRICK.

                That's exactly my point. The debate is explicitly about whether Amarout has the right to impose its will on the "distant neighbors" which doesn't make sense if those neighbors are under the same government. No American politician is going to say that FEMA shouldn't help any states at all because they'd be depriving Floridans of the ability to choose their own fate - if the argument was "Amaurot must be defended above all else, frick those hillbillies" it would make sense but that's not how it's framed

                It didn't, this is already hard confirmed by Oda in the Nier collab in case it wasn't obvious enough from ShB where the people immediately after the sundering made cave paintings of what had happened.

                Hey homie do the people of republican Rome still exist because some of their descendents happen to be alive? No moron they're dead. Claiming the Sundering "didn't kill" the ancients lost all validity the moment that generation of people died from their shortened lifespans and the following generations lost all knowledge of them. There's zero continuity there.

                Hey homie, first of all stop typing like you're a mutt zoomer on twitter. Second of all, I'll remind you that Hermes was concerned with the survival of the inhabitants of the planet. They died from shortened lifespans but they would have been extinct from suicide if the Final Days and sundering hadn't taken place. Life continues on, their descendants still exist.

                So, as we both now agree, the Ancients were not killed. They continued to live on (for a much shorter time albeit) and had children, and their descendants still inhabit the planet. And therefore Hermes averted their extinction.

                They were killed. If I punch you in the face so fricking hard that your physical and mental capabilities become crippled and you die shortly thereafter at 1/10000th of your natural lifespan (essentially the next day in human terms) then I've killed you. And again, there is no continuity, the civilization was destroyed and future generations had no memory (sans echo bullshit) of it.

                What you're saying is essentially claiming that the very first lifeform to ever exist is literally still alive because it progenerated all the future forms of life. That your own great great grandfather never died because you exist. By that logic you could say that when the ancients killed themselves they didn't die because their souls were just reborn in a new body, or that the Ra La Black folk never died because actually a bunch of them now still exist as recreated Dynamis beings. That's fricking moronic and you're a genuine brainlet, so I can see how you think a lobotomy is no big deal.

            The problem he diagnosed with their society was absolutely correct, as it was the exact same problem that made them want to feed everyone to Zodiark to go back and ignore all the bad stuff. And it was also the exact same problem that killed the Nibirun. He was a hypocrite because he also showed a selfish disregard for other lives when he released all the animals in Hyperborea, and when he was only concerned with his own emotions as Meteion was experiencing the others dying. But he was absolutely correct about the issue he was intending to fix.

              They're Primals, the dialog in the trailer basically states that outright.

              Primals don't "change" shapes once taken form, other than certain transformations baked into their conception, they form a "soul" that's remembered by the star. Hell, doubly so since they've never been "unsummoned". The Source's Titan can't be summoned into a different form by faithful who believe in a radically different image, they'd still get the big chicken nugget. At best he gets a different personality depending on the summoner.

                No, they did not. Thordan and Ysayle were humans who summoned a primal into their soul. Elidibus was himself already a primal. First he was the heart of Zodiark who shifted into an image of Elidibus per the wishes of the other Ancients. Then after the sundering he was starved of Zodiark faith so he replaced it with Warrior of Light faith. So he took on a new image. He didn't summon a WoL primal into him at Seat of Sacrifice, he already was the WoL primal and he took off his limiters.

                There's no mantle. Elidibus himself, the real Elidibus's soul, had already become a primal when he became part of Zodiark. He never regained his body, he just regained the familiar shape of Elidibus while remaining a primal. He then became the primal of the Warrior of Light when he began diverting that faith to himself.

                >he fully sacrificed his form to take the shape of Zodiark's heart
                Ascians shed bodies like people change clothes. The contention was always the question of his soul, and Pan confirmed that it was his own real soul inside the WoL Primal, not some Primal recreation. I can't believe you're really in denial over this shit, haven't you been arguing this point for like four years?

                Dude, listen to me. IT IS HIS SOUL. His soul, which became a primal. And never stopped being a primal.

                He took Ardbert's body, which has nothing to do with him being a WoL primal except that it was helping to focus more WoL faith onto him. He had become a WoL primal long before that.

                Except his soul was not itself a primal, it was just a normal soul. Notice how he's not a fricking primal at the tower in EW or in Pandaemonium?

                Except it was, because it was the heart of Zodiark. Again, the game outright confirms this in plain English. Y'shtola says he's a primal, he says she's correct. It's that simple.
                >Notice how he's not a fricking primal at the tower in EW or in Pandaemonium?
                Because he died, and the primal was vanquished. The same way you kill Ifrit and the aether used to summon him returns to its original shape.

                They don't. Now you're just being delusional. The only example we have of anything like this is Shiva, a mantled primal, being stained onto Ysayle's soul. You are proving the opposite of what you want to prove.

                Primals aren't real. If it was his real soul, then that soul was just mantling a primal concept such as we've seen before

                He wasn't mantling anything, he fully sacrificed his form to take the shape of Zodiark's heart. And he remained Zodiark's heart from then on. He never stopped being a primal, he just changed forms. The game confirms this outright when Y'shtola says "you are a primal" and he responds "correct on all counts", so I'm not sure why there's even a debate here.

                The game already said that only one Primal concept can be summoned at a time long (i.e. can't have two Ramuhs) before this and it can't be changed so frankly I'm not sure what anybody's trying to argue to begin with.

              • 8 months ago

                The argument is about whether a primal can change its image after being summoned, and Elidibus shows that they can.

                Ascians shed bodies like people change clothes. The contention was always the question of his soul, and Pan confirmed that it was his own real soul inside the WoL Primal, not some Primal recreation. I can't believe you're really in denial over this shit, haven't you been arguing this point for like four years?
