I actually really enjoyed the whole unfolding of Lahabrea was just a stern father who wants the best for his son while Athena is a fricking batshit insane mother who gaslit his son plotline
That last conversation between Eric and Athena was pretty kino >you're useless >exactly as you made me
Hiroi clearly cared about Pandaemonium more than MSQ because apart from the Heart of Sabik asspull, it's really solid and easily the best raid story since Coils.
Can I get a QRD? I quit a little before DSR so I only have some inklings about post-Asphodelos story or MSQ. Is this an Asphodelos thing or a MSQ thing? I thought Golbez was the bad guy.
It's Lahabrea's prostitute wife who invented the Heart of Sabik.
So that creepy eyed b***h is Lahabrea's boo? Honestly, I can see where he's coming from. Probably a freak in the sheets. Who's to say Thordan didn't strike him down out of jealousy because Lahabrea got to tap that? You know, before the whole Hydaelyn thing anyway
it's a pandemonium thing and honestly in retrospect it's a very half baked story
>whole mess was orchestrated by lahabrea's crazy wife athena >athena encountered High Seraph Ultima (yes we're back to shoving Matsuno's bullshit in here pls play the Ivalice raids PLS PLAY THEM) and got her hands on black auracite (very powerful PLS PLAY IVALICE RAIDS) >throughout all this you're accompanied by lahabrea's son erichtonios (groomed as a vessel for athena just because they needed a plot device), themis (elidibus pretending not to be elidibus by wearing his white convocation robes, looking like himself and occasionally saying 'i'm not from the convocation and i'm not elidibus') and lahabrea's good half >lahabrea got grossed out by the weird merging shit he did with his wife and her insanity so he split himself into two and removed his bad memories alongside a large portion of his power >his early crazy self is still in love with athena and alongside some random useless nobody basically starts wreaking havoc in pandemonium (this is where you come in), in order to release athena >athena just wants to be a god which is quite possibly the lamest villain motivation ever >you beat athena up in the future because she gets resurrected by using erichtonios' reincarnated self and the black auracite from the Ultima weapon >for literally no reason at the end, AFTER the whole thing is resolved, lahabrea merges with his crazy self again and starts acting like a sociopath to show why the MSQ Lahabrea acts like a saturday morning cartoon villain and also unleashes athena via the black auracite (whom you beat up in the future)
The whole justification in the end for why Lahabrea merges with his clearly insane, corrupted self is just 'i need more power to do the best thing for the star', but it's absolutely moronic considering getting those memories and power back mean he's just going to release Athena again which he fricking does.
>Matsuno seether is too stupid to get that Lahabrea in the past isn't the Lahabrea memory that saw all the shit in the current day
No wonder Matsuno makes you melt down
I'm not talking about that you caveman, the Lahabrea in the past would have to be colossally stupid to immediately merge back with the thing that he specifically cast away because of how dangerous for everything it was, 15 minutes after it causes a storm of shit, takes over the whole of pandemonium and almost gets his son killed and the whole place trashed if not for the overly autistic nuclear weapon on two feet from another age that wandered in on a whim. And don't give me the whole ' well he needed more power to prevent disasters like that ' considering said power is literally the source of the disaster that happened and he KNEW how dangerous Athena was to the whole situation
>lahabrea merges with his crazy self again
It's because he realized that acting at half his power level is fricking moronic, and considering how much he jobs in ARR at full power he was probably right.
>let's just merge with my half self that's corrupted and obsessed with Athena, after said half self that's corrupted and obsessed with Athena shitwrecks everything and almost gets my son killed
Nah, that's just moronic writing. Or intentional writing to make him look moronic, which is about the same thing.
It was either accept his schizo side or be a weak b***h
Well the result was that Athena wasn't dealt with, and future Lahabrea asking you not to say anything to them in the past is a dumb and lazy cop-out considering Elidibus also asks you not to faff about in the past yet you tell half the people in Elpis about the future anyways back in the MSQ. But besides that, it was still a massively dangerous thing to do considering Hephaistos was also batshit and powerful to begin with, it's not just juicing up the battery, it's merging with a mad person that's just plain moronic from a supposed hyper rational intellect like Lahabrea, who just ends up acting like a complete moron after he re-merges.
I mean it didn't play out that way so he was right? Obsession with athena wasn't a problem with his merged self. He just kept the maniacal devotion to saving the ancient role which supports his role. He didn't know Athena had a backup save on the heart of sabik he just used it like a nuke rock so wasn't an issue there.
>Lemme just use Athena's weird magical rock that she conspicuosly left behind and started acting crazy after she encountered it, surely there will be no consequence
It's still insanely careless and moronic.

I'm more concerned that we just leave it with claudien now. Not about athena just the general danger of something like that.

Supposedly it's all out of juice now that Athena got blown the frick out.
If the game was finished I could count it in at least the top 3 but like the last 30% of the game is blatantly incomplete, the story jump cuts between continents FFIX style except somehow worse and apart from like 3 characters nobody gets any development or even interaction for that matter. It's loaded with potential but it'd benefit from actually being completed by the team that started it.
I honestly don't understand how autists like you play games with an ounce of story in them, because you miss so much of what's going on with your inept social capabilities.
Most gamers don't even pay attention and walk away from most games with a vague idea of how they think the game went.
Quality writing is wasted on most gamers, but even moreso if you put it anywhere except "front and center" where a player is likely to stumble into it.
>go to your house to frick your mom >hear grunting noises from the other side of the wall >go to check >it's you being fricked by your dad get an argument, moron, what exactly did that post miss

cool >map cucked into a tiny triangle >nodes now spawn infinitely and very rapidly >all teams just stay in their little corner smashing the same crystals over and over, no one actually fights
what was the fricking point
now it's like an inferior Seal Rock that takes longer
>The Black Auracite, also known as the Heart of Sabik, is an artifact of extreme power that both magnifies someone's desires to the point of insanity and gives them the magical power to achieve it if not stopped quickly >White Stone Black
>body-hopping too much and it made him go schizo
This and loosing power in each buddy hopping. Also doing that for tens of thousand of years with a miserable mindset.
HEY ANON GUESS WHAT >Auracite, known also as memoria, was used by the champions of the thirteenth reflection to contain the powers of primals, known as eidolons in that realm, that were summoned. As mentioned by Unukalhai, the primal energies gradually bled out of the auracite, warping its wielders into fiends of endless appetite for aether, devouring their world's life force.
Not necessarily next but in the future absolutely
This is the first time since 6.0 we've had any indication of a truly unknown player in the setting, and now we know that there is probably a whole planet of horrific soul-fragmenting abominations and they fricking hate us.

This is the perfect opportunity to remind everyone to QUEUE FOR ORBONNE MONASTERY since some of the mechanics of the final boss might get recycled in P12S.
the cliff notes >ultima is from fricking space or something >ramza (old, good guy one) and the other characters you recognize from FFT frick up and can't stop her, best they can do is seal it and ensure nobody wakes her up unless they're tougher then they are (reason they fight you in orbonne) >through a series of scenes that don't matter ramzas (modern day, butthole one) and his sister come into contact with auracite which makes his sister get possessed by ultima and set in motion events to wake her up >you beat her up and stop this problem, surely. everything is okay. lets all go home >then in bozja some of the same npcs show up but it doesn't matter
why are matsunogays soigaping at ultima being from space, a ton of big important characters come from other worlds
omega's an alien
middy's an alien
the loporrits are aliens
the other shards are basically other planets
why is everyone :O at this
>Midgardsormr and Omega would likely get their shit slapped too
I dunno about Omega, considering just how many planets Omicrons and Omega trashed in general
>omega's an alien middy's an alien
these things are also cool but they're basically just flavor. the auracite has constantly been shown to be something way beyond what anyone can do. dragons and robots kneel to the dilatima that the heart of sabik can make
not enough people talk about how dragoons are powered by alien blood to superhuman ability but all this ultima/auracite shit has been consistently been shown to be a level above the other stuff
dragons are from space but they still had to kneel to hyedelyn. meanwhile the heart of sabik was enough that it could fricking burn up her ability to protect you.
>why are matsunogays soigaping at ultima being from space, a ton of big important characters come from other worlds >why is everyone :O at this
what are you talking about, i've seen nothing but disdain or lack of regard for both of those plot points, as well as pretty much everyone shitting on matsuno writing
the future of this game looks fricking grim with the absolute shitters who made ivalice at the helm. the story will hit the fricking bedrock if ivalice is made mandatory
Mate the ENTIRETY of XIV is Matsuno influenced, not just the story but EVERYTHING. Most of XIV team is made of Matsuno's former subordinates who idolise him.
man, I'm fricking losing it >90% of this whole raid storyline is just more pretty greek gays complaining about things >suddenly out of nowhere we're dropping all this crazy shit about how athena has a rock that nobody knows the history of that lets he make the best magic ever and do a bunch of shit the ascians would later do but also drives you insane, transforms into a boss with so many homages to orbonne ultima (who is a fricking space alien mind control thing) that they had to point it out and then they start fricking dropping the ff7 jenova music in the cutscenes as she starts breaking down before everyone >and then we just kind of give the all powerful space rock to some random guy and stop thinking about anything that happens because white hair anime boy is sad =(
what the frick are they going with all of this, its written like they're somehow closing the book on all this super fast and trying to set up all kinds of crazy shit for later
>and then we just kind of give the all powerful space rock to some random guy and stop thinking about anything that happens because white hair anime boy is sad
We also threw Niddle's eye into a chasm because surely, nothing bad could happen with that. I like Elidibus, and I thought his sendoff in 5.3 was good and the one in 6.0 acceptable. We really didn't need to do this again.
>greek gays complaining
We saw Athena being the intellectual b***h she was in myths but which Ascian is the gigachad Zeus who banged anything and everything and even transformed into animals for it?
don't forget how the endsinger already felt like they were sending up high seraph >You will rue the day you looked to the heavens

theres a directive on high to stretch out 2 patches worth of real story and make the players do 4 patches. i hope ff 16 being released fixes this dumb shit. at least they didnt make us do a follow npc stealth quest.

Funny how almost all the worst characters are female and most of the good ones are male. Although there are quite a good female characters but they are just stuck in side content.
We literally have to build a gateway to the 1st to stop Zeromus from consuming Etheryis.

Another overly rich twittergay in the vein of futacat paying a bunch of different artists, then uploading the work (or someone else uploading their character because they find it hot), it happens all the time
The 6.x MSQ would have been better spent doing some low tier adventures with the scions to spotlight them better, grow closer and just have some much needed character interaction like at the beginning from 6.1. WoL actually felt like a person for once. The void story does nothing for me and is worse filler than the ARR "primal of the week" stuff.
Yeah the 6.x MSQ is just fricking bad. It also doesn't help that they shove Zero in it. She feels like a Character from a badly written Shadow the Hedgehog fanfic. I realy fear that she will be a permanent companion from now on onwards.
the future of this game looks fricking grim with the absolute shitters who made ivalice at the helm. the story will hit the fricking bedrock if ivalice is made mandatory
>Ivalice >Zenos
I can't be disappointed again after 6.0, this game has become garbage for women, the Estinien scene this patch should have been reminder enough, 7.0 is going to be more Graha and ancient femboys shit
Raids were great mechanically, story was just inconsequential shit that led nowhere, it had absolutely nothing interesting to it >ancient heroes couldn't beat up evil so they seal it up >evil possesses girl >you go beat up ancient heroes to prove the trial then beat up ancient evil
it was the most cookie cutter story, just dragged out endlessly by unlikeable characters such as ramza and pointless fetch quests
I can't really argue with this but I thought it was kinda cool that the ramza you meet is the exact opposite of FFT ramza in an expansion that was otherwise full of "its just the thing from the other final fantasy game"
also them explaining that the flying theater trope is allowed to operate as freely as they do because emperor solus (aka fricking emet selch) just really enjoyed their work despite them being anti authority is pretty charming but only retroactively after emperor solus became a real character and not a name varis mentions in 1 cutscene every expansion
>wol makes friends with this old man grandpa >just old man regrets as he wants to settle shit like old men do. >just power through everyone with this guy while you get tard wrangled by someone who sees the big picture >help the old man and he becomes our grandpa like the garlean reaper is our grandma.
>when they cut an entire story and just need it to end.
Nah, it's just Matsuno writing, he always does shit like this because he can't write endings, so he says stuff like 'there are no endings in real life, things just go on happening'
Didn't he get banhammered from reality though? I thought the whole point of the nullstone was that it fricking erased voidsent.
Also, voidsent can't die in the void. They're perfectly mortal in the source.
cloud of darkness literally respawns in the cutscene after you beat her in the crystal tower raids and you have to run out of the void through a closing hole to escape her
there's a few but it's all either stuff that's an obvious meme like calculator or chocobo knight, stuff like geomancer/oracle that's shown up in the game by name as "asian version of other caster class" and doesn't have a lot ot really make it unique in this game
and chemist, which that went on record as saying they were considering it but couldn't think of a good way to make it work while still keeping its item use identity
The jobs from Heavensward (specifically MCH and AST) were originally inspired by FFT. If they really wanted an Ivalice job they’d probably just make one up.
Matsunogays are the next evolution of Lavosgays, that's just their headcanon. Of course MSQ is gonna be about something else but they'll be shitting up every thread for months now, then go quiet like all the other headcanon gays before them
Where are people getting this whole >There is a bigger rock of Auracite in space >And a whole planet of Dilatimas
From?
Did I miss something? Whats with all the Ivalice gays? Because you can mention Ultima in the raid questline or what? Or did you spergs forget to take your meds again?
Okay calm down Ivalicegays. You got your few lines of text this patch now back to your corner you little shits.
The copes have begun. Go look at Ishikawa's associated quests and what she was allowed to put into the MSQ.
The policy is that the lead writer gets to put in the side content they worked on and elevate it to the MSQ. G'raha Tia was a one-off side story until she was promoted and now he's everywhere. The current lead writer worked on Voidsent, Bozja, POTD, and Ivalice content, so you better expect to see that shit pop up in the MSQ. He's a huge Matsuno gay so now it's fricking Matsuno time.
ultima is specifically said to be from space and created auracite that is extremely powerful and controls people based on their desires. now it turns out the heart of sabik is also auracite and nobody among the ancients has any idea what the frick it does or where its from, only that it was something that athena found instead of making, it's super powerful and it made her (and possibly hephastios) go nuts based on her internal desires
it's a whole lot of things being implied to the point where if you did ivalice you're literally able to ask about if there's a connection here but nothing is being said outright.

oh yeah, and the weapon trial series is all about auracite based on the heart of sabik that stores memories and is then used to imprint those personalities/memories/skills over the body of someone else essentially hijacking their brain, which is exactly what athena was doing with the heart of sabik
Did I miss something? Whats with all the Ivalice gays? Because you can mention Ultima in the raid questline or what? Or did you spergs forget to take your meds again?
>morons don't see the connection between the heart of Sabik and Ultima the High Seraph >P12S P2 theme is literally a remix of UHS theme
I knew there were smooth brains in this community but not this smooth...
I was already going hmm when they let me bring ultima up by name in the dialogue but then p12 literally has the flying helpers from high seraph doing the exact same big line aoe/tether mechanics
you don't need to see the connection, it's flat out shoved in your face 30 times in the last quests
the real morons are the ones who think this will actually go anywhere, let alone be used as the lead into the next expansion
>Be god of the ancients >Just rotate a table 90 degrees
The gods in this world aren't very intelligent.
unironically a pretty kino way to showcase that a character can manipulate reality like a godly figure while still having a video game boss fight that has rules and isn't just "I make you blow up lol" is to have them manipulate the literal (game) world
if making the ground unable to be stood on because of aoes if what normal tought things can do, making it so there isn't a floor at all is a step above. it's kinda silly if you think about it but I get the idea
>Guy just fricks off with the heart of sabik
I can't tell if they rushed things a bit and didn't give a shit or if its some sort of setup for a future plot, specially after the ultima stuff.
7.0 being Ivalice themed would be nice and would filter everyone I hate, but there's no way they would actually force the playerbase to do a bunch of 24man, bozja and pandemonium, the majority of the playerbase is far too adverse at playing the game
>Ivalice themed expansion
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I DON'T WANT TO GO IVALICE ANYMORE
I WILL FOREVER WEAR 100ish ilvl TO ALWAYS GET LotA AND ST IN ALLIANCE ROULETTE AND YOU CAN'T STOP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
STOP STOP STOP STOP Was Borzja Ivalice? In that case ignore everything I said, the 48 man Savage Bozja raid was the best content I've ever done in this game, and I've done everything including Ultimates. It's just so much fun. My FC was big enough to do it by ourselves
Bozja is in Ivalice or is on its border. It's pretty much Ivalice content.
bozja literally has the other ivalice eidolons that weren't made bosses in the actual ivalice raids showing up here and there and constantly drops music and characters from it, it just has to share the stage with stupid hrothgar shit
you will always be the comic relief race
you will never get any representation in main quests because you have meme animations and your height prevents characters from doing any kind of meaningful interaction with you
it also prevents everyone else from having meaningful interactions
Can’t carry Y’shtola when she comes out of the Lifestream because of Lalafell >Can’t hug Alisaie when she’s breaking down over Ga Bu or in Coils because of Lalafell >Can’t carry Y’shtola again when she comes out of the Lifestream again because of Lalafell >Can’t do anything to support Alphinaud over Arenvald because of Lalafell >Can’t hug Alisaie in ShB because of Lalafell >Can’t headpat Ryne because of Lalafell (interview confirms they had to remove this after planning it) >Can’t support G’raha when he’s faltering because of Lalafell >Can’t hug any of G’raha, Alisaie or Alphinaud before they leave you, can’t even shake their hands because of Lalafell >Can’t have Hydaelyn die in the WoL’s arms because of Lalafell
You should have at least been able to give her a hug before leaving Elpis.
It bothers me to this day that at no point are you given the option to show her affection, even though it is so heavily implied during every moment your character speaks to her during EW.
"Sorry lalafell players, it's impossible to implement all those actions for your race but there's no need to gut other races".
Potato Black folk deserve nothing.
I am also just about completely sure the reason Y'shtola and WoL had a random staring contest in the moon is that that's the absolute most the animation team could do to show affection.
the point of skip soar or disband isn't that soar is hard, the point is that people saw really tryhard groups being able to skip soar so they assumed they should too and would throw a fit if they couldn't, then over time potency creep meant skipping soar became very possible so the meme changed meaning
No one told me monk story foreshadows, even more, à la Mhigger revolution and the Twelve (assuming that's the secret of Silvertear they keep bringing up)
as someone who rushed the msq to see golbez asap he basically says >yeah we'll get you your aether to fix this problem but hopefully you haven't forgotten about this crazy shit in the aitascope
and then they move on
>thought the WoL being Azem was the end of the rabbit hole >nope >athena wasnt the only one who came upon a weird alien thing >once upon a time, a woman named Venat stumbled upon a falling rock >and in the crater she saw a child >(You)
OMEGA WAS WRONG
YOUR STRENGTH IS NOT JUST DYNAMIS

I WILL BE RIGHT COME 9.0
They're Amiibo crystals, maybe auracite.
They enhance and store abilities of those deemed worthy, left behind memories of old masters. No they're not dead people or anything at least necessarily, MCH crystals were recently made.
the garleans literally, genuinely made auracite in a factory and used it for all kinds of attempts to make the ultima weapon 2/turn themselves into primals in the bozja/werlyt questlines
It's garbage. You can feel the drop in quality as soon as EW's MSQ is over and they switch writers. It's absolutely palpable.
None of the characters are interesting or memorable and you don't care about a single thing that's happening. The main party member NPCs seem dumber and less charismatic than usual.
The whole thing feels like a Trials sidequest series that somehow got shoehorned into the MSQ.
>Grew up with her single mother (warrior) >Only taught how to fight and never trusted anyone else >Just want to fulfil her mother's wish after her death >Referenced in every cutscene as she or her
There is no mystery here.
When you did it for Zodiark I thought well ok, that means you won't have the crystal by the end of the story. When you did it for Barbariccia, I rolled my eyes and realized it's just gonna be like this forever now. One of the coolest moments in the game which mirrored the Exarch summoning has now been reduced to plot convenience for every 8-man piece of content.
>How much juice is left in this fricking thing anyway
If it works like job crystals, an infinite amount since you're the one actually fueling it, all it does is shape the aether into the summon spell.
Didn't Elidibus say he had a vision of it happening, so it had to happen.
And how we came to know about it was that the kid sent a "help me Obi-wan" message we only got a part of.
I think.
More that Elidibus of the future suddenly remembered seeing your dumbass at Elpis when you brought him back at the crystal tower. You can imagine how he must've cringed to know he was just meant to job to you all along and his real purpose for millenia was to send you back to the past to potentially frick everything up or fix everything or both at once and ensure the timeloop happens.
>jobbed
he literally wasn't fighting back. jobbing is at least pretending to put up a fight.
he's a siscon, of course he's going to lose to his sister regardless of how much weaker she is than him.

>All raid bosses this tier voice acted (never seen before) >We got even a voiced cutscene, last time we got one was in Final Coil
Did the budget suddenly increase?
Yeah I was surprised for them all to be voiced as well as the last cutscene, but Elidibus's VA is also the grumpy Garlean guy in the MSQ. It seems that since EW they've been reusing VAs where possible in order to get more lines, at least with ENG.

Speedreader-kun, they litteraly explained this, while also showing her insanity. How could a flawed person like her create a perfect world. The best example for this was litteraly the last exchange between her and Erichtonios.
I'm not sure if I get this right but... Did that epilogue imply that the real Golbez died and that swordsman dude started impersonating him so that history remembers him as a hero?
The real Golbez ended up turning into darkness/something because the 13th lost a against the ascians, which activated the flood of darkness. he was turned into crystal to stop him from dying.

Why didn't we at least have the option to tell aethereal sea laha that he becomes a mega schizo? It's not like it would effect anything since he's basically a ghost and with the looks WOL gives him it doesn't seem like they care about sparing his feelings
I like how there was the option to say >Uhhhh... bro? I played the Ivalice raids, I know where auracite comes from
And Bread is like >Y-yeah I know too, totally, but maybe there's another source
No cap, I could fix her. fr.
No you couldn't Lahabrea.
I actually really enjoyed the whole unfolding of Lahabrea was just a stern father who wants the best for his son while Athena is a fricking batshit insane mother who gaslit his son plotline
That last conversation between Eric and Athena was pretty kino
>you're useless
>exactly as you made me
Panda is the only reason I haven't decided to shit on the MSQ yet.
Hiroi clearly cared about Pandaemonium more than MSQ because apart from the Heart of Sabik asspull, it's really solid and easily the best raid story since Coils.
I found the last part a bit packed and it fricked the pacing.
Lore wise it was pretty cool
He probably just doesn't give a frick about FF4. I know I don't.

she knew she was preggo there are obvious signs. she's just a sociopath prostitute.
Long as they don't pull a Sylvanas and have her get away with it in the end.
Well you did finish the story?
>It's okay to kill it if its inside the stomach
>it's a serious crime to kill it the moment it leaves
I don't get it.
Can I get a QRD? I quit a little before DSR so I only have some inklings about post-Asphodelos story or MSQ. Is this an Asphodelos thing or a MSQ thing? I thought Golbez was the bad guy.
Literally this
I don't know who those are.
I don't know what that is. I know I'm not being very appreciative here, but it's been a year and a half since I watched a cutscene in this game.
The heart of the Ultima Weapon he used to cast Ultima way back in ARR
It's Lahabrea's prostitute wife who invented the Heart of Sabik.
She only found the thing
Lahabrea wife is batshit insane and was basically gaslighting him into believing he was a shit dad and their son eric into loving her.
So that creepy eyed b***h is Lahabrea's boo? Honestly, I can see where he's coming from. Probably a freak in the sheets. Who's to say Thordan didn't strike him down out of jealousy because Lahabrea got to tap that? You know, before the whole Hydaelyn thing anyway
this is Pandaemonium second part, Abyssos. Post-Asphodelos.
I see. So this bawd is why my man Hesperos went nuts? Isn't that a good thing? Hic svnt leones is a top fricking banger.
it's a pandemonium thing and honestly in retrospect it's a very half baked story
>whole mess was orchestrated by lahabrea's crazy wife athena
>athena encountered High Seraph Ultima (yes we're back to shoving Matsuno's bullshit in here pls play the Ivalice raids PLS PLAY THEM) and got her hands on black auracite (very powerful PLS PLAY IVALICE RAIDS)
>throughout all this you're accompanied by lahabrea's son erichtonios (groomed as a vessel for athena just because they needed a plot device), themis (elidibus pretending not to be elidibus by wearing his white convocation robes, looking like himself and occasionally saying 'i'm not from the convocation and i'm not elidibus') and lahabrea's good half
>lahabrea got grossed out by the weird merging shit he did with his wife and her insanity so he split himself into two and removed his bad memories alongside a large portion of his power
>his early crazy self is still in love with athena and alongside some random useless nobody basically starts wreaking havoc in pandemonium (this is where you come in), in order to release athena
>athena just wants to be a god which is quite possibly the lamest villain motivation ever
>you beat athena up in the future because she gets resurrected by using erichtonios' reincarnated self and the black auracite from the Ultima weapon
>for literally no reason at the end, AFTER the whole thing is resolved, lahabrea merges with his crazy self again and starts acting like a sociopath to show why the MSQ Lahabrea acts like a saturday morning cartoon villain and also unleashes athena via the black auracite (whom you beat up in the future)
The whole justification in the end for why Lahabrea merges with his clearly insane, corrupted self is just 'i need more power to do the best thing for the star', but it's absolutely moronic considering getting those memories and power back mean he's just going to release Athena again which he fricking does.
>Matsuno seether is too stupid to get that Lahabrea in the past isn't the Lahabrea memory that saw all the shit in the current day
No wonder Matsuno makes you melt down
I'm not talking about that you caveman, the Lahabrea in the past would have to be colossally stupid to immediately merge back with the thing that he specifically cast away because of how dangerous for everything it was, 15 minutes after it causes a storm of shit, takes over the whole of pandemonium and almost gets his son killed and the whole place trashed if not for the overly autistic nuclear weapon on two feet from another age that wandered in on a whim. And don't give me the whole ' well he needed more power to prevent disasters like that ' considering said power is literally the source of the disaster that happened and he KNEW how dangerous Athena was to the whole situation
Speedreader-kun you forget Claudien says Athena's memories are no longer in the Heart of Sabik so she can't get resurrected again.
moron-chan, read what I wrote. I am talking about Lahabrea re-merging in the past in Elpis, not anything that happens after you defeat Ultima
*Athena, not Ultima
>lahabrea merges with his crazy self again
It's because he realized that acting at half his power level is fricking moronic, and considering how much he jobs in ARR at full power he was probably right.
>let's just merge with my half self that's corrupted and obsessed with Athena, after said half self that's corrupted and obsessed with Athena shitwrecks everything and almost gets my son killed
Nah, that's just moronic writing. Or intentional writing to make him look moronic, which is about the same thing.
It was either accept his schizo side or be a weak b***h
Athena was dealt with. His other side was too soft for her.
Well the result was that Athena wasn't dealt with, and future Lahabrea asking you not to say anything to them in the past is a dumb and lazy cop-out considering Elidibus also asks you not to faff about in the past yet you tell half the people in Elpis about the future anyways back in the MSQ. But besides that, it was still a massively dangerous thing to do considering Hephaistos was also batshit and powerful to begin with, it's not just juicing up the battery, it's merging with a mad person that's just plain moronic from a supposed hyper rational intellect like Lahabrea, who just ends up acting like a complete moron after he re-merges.
I mean it didn't play out that way so he was right? Obsession with athena wasn't a problem with his merged self. He just kept the maniacal devotion to saving the ancient role which supports his role. He didn't know Athena had a backup save on the heart of sabik he just used it like a nuke rock so wasn't an issue there.
>Lemme just use Athena's weird magical rock that she conspicuosly left behind and started acting crazy after she encountered it, surely there will be no consequence
It's still insanely careless and moronic.
I'm more concerned that we just leave it with claudien now. Not about athena just the general danger of something like that.
Supposedly it's all out of juice now that Athena got blown the frick out.
He almost killed WoL in fixed ARR solo instance until mommy hax showed up.
WoL had to be bailed by so many times in Praetorium.
>how much he jobs in ARR at full power
no longer canon after the msq roulette changes.
>Matsuno's bullshit
oh, you mean FFXII? the best game in the series? fricking philistine
If the game was finished I could count it in at least the top 3 but like the last 30% of the game is blatantly incomplete, the story jump cuts between continents FFIX style except somehow worse and apart from like 3 characters nobody gets any development or even interaction for that matter. It's loaded with potential but it'd benefit from actually being completed by the team that started it.
>BEST GAME IN THE SERIES
I'm captain moron from dalmascha!
I honestly don't understand how autists like you play games with an ounce of story in them, because you miss so much of what's going on with your inept social capabilities.
Most gamers don't even pay attention and walk away from most games with a vague idea of how they think the game went.
Quality writing is wasted on most gamers, but even moreso if you put it anywhere except "front and center" where a player is likely to stumble into it.
>pandemonium
>ffxiv in general
>quality writing
>go to your house to frick your mom
>hear grunting noises from the other side of the wall
>go to check
>it's you being fricked by your dad
get an argument, moron, what exactly did that post miss
Do you guys think turn based combat can work in XIV as AA mini game or something like that? I really miss old JRPGs.
turns already exist in minigames like mahjong and triple triad so clearly it can work
>people in game doing this
>versus world of warcraft writing where literal npcs are doing this

I would've guessed that it was the Heart of Sabik that turned Lahabrea into a mustache-twirling lunatic in ARR, but they never actually implied that
Wasn't that because he'd been body-hopping too much and it made him go schizo?
>body-hopping too much and it made him go schizo
This and loosing power in each buddy hopping. Also doing that for tens of thousand of years with a miserable mindset.

Chances they are the next big bad guy of the next arc?
If the word "auracite" ever appears in the MSQ then it's Matsuno time
HEY ANON GUESS WHAT
>Auracite, known also as memoria, was used by the champions of the thirteenth reflection to contain the powers of primals, known as eidolons in that realm, that were summoned. As mentioned by Unukalhai, the primal energies gradually bled out of the auracite, warping its wielders into fiends of endless appetite for aether, devouring their world's life force.

So Zero is confirmed to be our shard?
She's still in the race but Golbez just pulled ahead.
>implying that zero is not the Ardbert of their world
she will rejoin with the world in the last fight, thus making us even more overpowered
Not necessarily next but in the future absolutely
This is the first time since 6.0 we've had any indication of a truly unknown player in the setting, and now we know that there is probably a whole planet of horrific soul-fragmenting abominations and they fricking hate us.
You just know they're going to pull a "oh yeah she was crazy, we're not all like that lol" if we ever go there.

>you beat her up and stop this problem, surely. everything is okay. lets all go home
>then in bozja some of the same npcs show up but it doesn't matter
why are matsunogays soigaping at ultima being from space, a ton of big important characters come from other worlds
omega's an alien
middy's an alien
the loporrits are aliens
the other shards are basically other planets
why is everyone :O at this
The loporrits are of the source like any other ancients creation
they've lived long enough on the moon to count as basically aliens at this point
No. Don't be moronic.
Because the Ancients were the strongest beings around only to get owned by a tiny pebble from these auracite frickers
Midgardsormr and Omega would likely get their shit slapped too
>Midgardsormr and Omega would likely get their shit slapped too
I dunno about Omega, considering just how many planets Omicrons and Omega trashed in general
>the loporrits are aliens
moron
>omega's an alien middy's an alien
these things are also cool but they're basically just flavor. the auracite has constantly been shown to be something way beyond what anyone can do. dragons and robots kneel to the dilatima that the heart of sabik can make
not enough people talk about how dragoons are powered by alien blood to superhuman ability but all this ultima/auracite shit has been consistently been shown to be a level above the other stuff
dragons are from space but they still had to kneel to hyedelyn. meanwhile the heart of sabik was enough that it could fricking burn up her ability to protect you.
Middy was able to take her shit off you but I think that was because they were partners or something.
Probably because robo and dragon planets have been btfo and glorious golden ultima land is still ripe with possibilities
>why are matsunogays soigaping at ultima being from space, a ton of big important characters come from other worlds
>why is everyone :O at this
what are you talking about, i've seen nothing but disdain or lack of regard for both of those plot points, as well as pretty much everyone shitting on matsuno writing
>ultima is from fricking space or something
Didn't we already know this?
Yes.
Yes but all the Ivalice stuff was almost non-canon fanfic tier shit right up until the 6.4 raid
It now has MSQ potential

Oh god please no, I don't want another unfinished story that doesn't match anything happening in the gameplay

>90% of this whole raid storyline is just more pretty greek gays complaining about things
>suddenly out of nowhere we're dropping all this crazy shit about how athena has a rock that nobody knows the history of that lets he make the best magic ever and do a bunch of shit the ascians would later do but also drives you insane, transforms into a boss with so many homages to orbonne ultima (who is a fricking space alien mind control thing) that they had to point it out and then they start fricking dropping the ff7 jenova music in the cutscenes as she starts breaking down before everyone
>and then we just kind of give the all powerful space rock to some random guy and stop thinking about anything that happens because white hair anime boy is sad =(
what the frick are they going with all of this, its written like they're somehow closing the book on all this super fast and trying to set up all kinds of crazy shit for later
was it the jenova music?
>and then we just kind of give the all powerful space rock to some random guy and stop thinking about anything that happens because white hair anime boy is sad
We also threw Niddle's eye into a chasm because surely, nothing bad could happen with that. I like Elidibus, and I thought his sendoff in 5.3 was good and the one in 6.0 acceptable. We really didn't need to do this again.
>greek gays complaining
We saw Athena being the intellectual b***h she was in myths but which Ascian is the gigachad Zeus who banged anything and everything and even transformed into animals for it?
don't forget how the endsinger already felt like they were sending up high seraph

For your dicklet middie maybe
Rule34 is seeing an influx of Y'shtola getting pounded by a futa lamia. And not from one artist, from several different ones. Why?
probably someone made a futa Lamia OC and pays artists?
Another overly rich twittergay in the vein of futacat paying a bunch of different artists, then uploading the work (or someone else uploading their character because they find it hot), it happens all the time
Some fruit really proud of their OC commissioning it.
The 6.x MSQ would have been better spent doing some low tier adventures with the scions to spotlight them better, grow closer and just have some much needed character interaction like at the beginning from 6.1. WoL actually felt like a person for once. The void story does nothing for me and is worse filler than the ARR "primal of the week" stuff.
Yeah the 6.x MSQ is just fricking bad. It also doesn't help that they shove Zero in it. She feels like a Character from a badly written Shadow the Hedgehog fanfic. I realy fear that she will be a permanent companion from now on onwards.

>ancient heroes couldn't beat up evil so they seal it up
>evil possesses girl
>you go beat up ancient heroes to prove the trial then beat up ancient evil
it was the most cookie cutter story, just dragged out endlessly by unlikeable characters such as ramza and pointless fetch quests
I can't really argue with this but I thought it was kinda cool that the ramza you meet is the exact opposite of FFT ramza in an expansion that was otherwise full of "its just the thing from the other final fantasy game"
also them explaining that the flying theater trope is allowed to operate as freely as they do because emperor solus (aka fricking emet selch) just really enjoyed their work despite them being anti authority is pretty charming but only retroactively after emperor solus became a real character and not a name varis mentions in 1 cutscene every expansion

No he feld and now has a bounty on his head.
he killed Gabranth and then captured evil science man and gave him to the good guys. Then just fricked off somewhere with his lalafell wife.

Nah, it's just Matsuno writing, he always does shit like this because he can't write endings, so he says stuff like 'there are no endings in real life, things just go on happening'
his career ended for sure. hes a washed up hack.
Well isn't he right?
Character development is a thing of fiction too.
Do it.

>Diabolos is back
explain
Voidsent can't die on the source they just get thrown back into the 13th meaning his still alive back there.
Didn't he get banhammered from reality though? I thought the whole point of the nullstone was that it fricking erased voidsent.
Also, voidsent can't die in the void. They're perfectly mortal in the source.
Diabolos somehow showed up in Bozja and tripped and fell into the Diabolos bait machine
Nullstone was a "go directly to jail" card iirc
Powerful Voidsent like the cloud of darkness die for good.
cloud of darkness literally respawns in the cutscene after you beat her in the crystal tower raids and you have to run out of the void through a closing hole to escape her
Current MSQ writer wrote Bozja and Mhach, which featured Diabolos
ROUND 4 homie
Are there any jobs from ivalice that we haven't seen yet? I only played Ogre. Like I'm interested in what jobs they can add.
there's a few but it's all either stuff that's an obvious meme like calculator or chocobo knight, stuff like geomancer/oracle that's shown up in the game by name as "asian version of other caster class" and doesn't have a lot ot really make it unique in this game
and chemist, which that went on record as saying they were considering it but couldn't think of a good way to make it work while still keeping its item use identity
Chemist .
The jobs from Heavensward (specifically MCH and AST) were originally inspired by FFT. If they really wanted an Ivalice job they’d probably just make one up.
Where are people getting this whole
>There is a bigger rock of Auracite in space
>And a whole planet of Dilatimas
From?
Matsunogays are the next evolution of Lavosgays, that's just their headcanon. Of course MSQ is gonna be about something else but they'll be shitting up every thread for months now, then go quiet like all the other headcanon gays before them
The copes have begun. Go look at Ishikawa's associated quests and what she was allowed to put into the MSQ.
The policy is that the lead writer gets to put in the side content they worked on and elevate it to the MSQ. G'raha Tia was a one-off side story until she was promoted and now he's everywhere. The current lead writer worked on Voidsent, Bozja, POTD, and Ivalice content, so you better expect to see that shit pop up in the MSQ. He's a huge Matsuno gay so now it's fricking Matsuno time.
tbf I was kinda tired of all the FF3 wank, now it's time for the Matsuno wank
It is unironically fricking over
>The lead writer works on content he worked on previously and knows more about than others work
You don't say.
ultima is specifically said to be from space and created auracite that is extremely powerful and controls people based on their desires. now it turns out the heart of sabik is also auracite and nobody among the ancients has any idea what the frick it does or where its from, only that it was something that athena found instead of making, it's super powerful and it made her (and possibly hephastios) go nuts based on her internal desires
it's a whole lot of things being implied to the point where if you did ivalice you're literally able to ask about if there's a connection here but nothing is being said outright.
>"Lahabrea look at this rock I found"
>P8S face.png
oh yeah, and the weapon trial series is all about auracite based on the heart of sabik that stores memories and is then used to imprint those personalities/memories/skills over the body of someone else essentially hijacking their brain, which is exactly what athena was doing with the heart of sabik
Did I miss something? Whats with all the Ivalice gays? Because you can mention Ultima in the raid questline or what? Or did you spergs forget to take your meds again?
just matsuno dickriders trying to force a shitty meme.
>ivalice gays
it was two fricking posts speculating
Talk to Claudien again
>morons don't see the connection between the heart of Sabik and Ultima the High Seraph
>P12S P2 theme is literally a remix of UHS theme
I knew there were smooth brains in this community but not this smooth...
I was already going hmm when they let me bring ultima up by name in the dialogue but then p12 literally has the flying helpers from high seraph doing the exact same big line aoe/tether mechanics
you don't need to see the connection, it's flat out shoved in your face 30 times in the last quests
the real morons are the ones who think this will actually go anywhere, let alone be used as the lead into the next expansion
Who is confused? The story explicitly makes this connection and WoL can ask about Ultima when they first mention black auracite.
Someone said something about BLU meter in a frame kit and still havent posted it. WHERE IS IT

Prease do savage for true finar boss.
Are we still pretending the actual final bosses in savage are what if scenarios at this point? They've been all relevant to the plot since E8.
unironically a pretty kino way to showcase that a character can manipulate reality like a godly figure while still having a video game boss fight that has rules and isn't just "I make you blow up lol" is to have them manipulate the literal (game) world
if making the ground unable to be stood on because of aoes if what normal tought things can do, making it so there isn't a floor at all is a step above. it's kinda silly if you think about it but I get the idea
>Guy just fricks off with the heart of sabik
I can't tell if they rushed things a bit and didn't give a shit or if its some sort of setup for a future plot, specially after the ultima stuff.
he says it's out of juice and used up
it's not gonna be relevant at all anymore
7.0 being Ivalice themed would be nice and would filter everyone I hate, but there's no way they would actually force the playerbase to do a bunch of 24man, bozja and pandemonium, the majority of the playerbase is far too adverse at playing the game
The game needs more Ogre stuff, Ivalice is good and all but the Ogre series is still superior.
>dogshit tactics necro and gay edda
no thanks gay.
Okay calm down Ivalicegays. You got your few lines of text this patch now back to your corner you little shits.
Wow you people really like crying.
WHERE ARE THE LEWDS!!!!
Here.
Was it kino?
The Valens doppelgänger was kind of a weird subplot
Agreed. And it ended as suddenly as it began. What's the fricking point?
I wouldn't have minded it if it were just one of his soldiers, but having him be some moron who changed his face was fricking dumb.
I liked it.
Would have been better without the weird doppelganger shit
the worst tataru israelite adventure.
I mean it's just a screenshot with a quick photojob.
We deserved a G-Warrior mount and not a stupid painting.
Fricking this, why go to all the effort to model and animated a giant mech and only let us use it once.
It should at least been a fricking mount.
And they should also add some content to use it. Like an arena where you fight Godzillas.
they will add it... on mogstation
I will fricking burn SE headquarters to the ground.
It'll be Cruise Chaser outrage volume 2
Yes. Hopefully Gaius let me add his daughter to my harem.

Was Borzja Ivalice? In that case ignore everything I said, the 48 man Savage Bozja raid was the best content I've ever done in this game, and I've done everything including Ultimates. It's just so much fun. My FC was big enough to do it by ourselves
Bozja is in Ivalice or is on its border. It's pretty much Ivalice content.
bozja literally has the other ivalice eidolons that weren't made bosses in the actual ivalice raids showing up here and there and constantly drops music and characters from it, it just has to share the stage with stupid hrothgar shit

Thats good to hear. I couldn't even be fricked clearing rubic**t after seeing enrage once because the fight was so fricking boring.
It's a pug killer.
Elidibus fight was kino even if he's just Fatebreaker p2.VA in raids needs to be standard.
Your 7.0 party member
No thanks
we need more lalafell representation in our main stories and side quests.
you will always be the comic relief race
you will never get any representation in main quests because you have meme animations and your height prevents characters from doing any kind of meaningful interaction with you
it also prevents everyone else from having meaningful interactions
Can’t carry Y’shtola when she comes out of the Lifestream because of Lalafell
>Can’t hug Alisaie when she’s breaking down over Ga Bu or in Coils because of Lalafell
>Can’t carry Y’shtola again when she comes out of the Lifestream again because of Lalafell
>Can’t do anything to support Alphinaud over Arenvald because of Lalafell
>Can’t hug Alisaie in ShB because of Lalafell
>Can’t headpat Ryne because of Lalafell (interview confirms they had to remove this after planning it)
>Can’t support G’raha when he’s faltering because of Lalafell
>Can’t hug any of G’raha, Alisaie or Alphinaud before they leave you, can’t even shake their hands because of Lalafell
>Can’t have Hydaelyn die in the WoL’s arms because of Lalafell
>Can’t all this because of Lalafell
Every other race kneels
Based
Hydaelyn was pretty huge by any of the races standards.
You should have at least been able to give her a hug before leaving Elpis.
It bothers me to this day that at no point are you given the option to show her affection, even though it is so heavily implied during every moment your character speaks to her during EW.
WOL has autism please understand
too hard to animate lalafell, sorry stupid gaijin
I'm sorry we spent all our budget animating lalafells doing karate with Zenos prease understandu
>Thank you, Venat.
It's not enough.
IT'S NOT. ENOUGH.
i actually seethed a lot for several minutes for not being able to even hug her in a cutscene...
>That Krile waddle in the msq
God I hate them
They need to allow every other race to interact with people. But not lalafells. Lalafells will just stand there doing nothing.
the mentally ill who play that race will throw a chimpout that will vastly eclipse the one over the lalafell lifter
"Sorry lalafell players, it's impossible to implement all those actions for your race but there's no need to gut other races".
Potato Black folk deserve nothing.
I support, hate lalas so much.
>(interview confirms they had to remove this after planning it)
I didn't know how bad things really were
>Can go in lala house because lalafell
feels good
I am also just about completely sure the reason Y'shtola and WoL had a random staring contest in the moon is that that's the absolute most the animation team could do to show affection.
Let's see those thighs
why do they call her pagaga
nah i rather have her be a bratty grandaughter to lyon while i do old man stuff with him.
People were memeing Soar but no one told me the shitty fricking seals could be such a big problem.
lomao, seals are so cancer, soar was never an issue even back in HW, I hate Zurvan so much
The soar meme was popular because many pf parties got filtered by it hard and they never got to seals.
the point of skip soar or disband isn't that soar is hard, the point is that people saw really tryhard groups being able to skip soar so they assumed they should too and would throw a fit if they couldn't, then over time potency creep meant skipping soar became very possible so the meme changed meaning
ATTENTION AETHER-BASED LIFE FORMS YOU ARE EXTREMELY CRINGE AND UNBASED
HERETIC
JUDGE BROS, WE"RE BACK IN THE RING
I have been playing since HW and never did a single EX-trial or Savage raid.
EXs are the best content in the game. Busy enough to keep your brain on most of the times but not hard enough in PF to make you want to kill someone.
No one told me monk story foreshadows, even more, à la Mhigger revolution and the Twelve (assuming that's the secret of Silvertear they keep bringing up)
that's because monk quests are ass
raids are not canon
msq is not going to be about ultima or ayylmaos, sadly
just like ryne and gaia fricked off and we didnt use eden to go to the void
Gankeraut mentions Pandemonium in MSQ. Cope and seethe.
I may have to check what he says if you never touched Panda
as someone who rushed the msq to see golbez asap he basically says
>yeah we'll get you your aether to fix this problem but hopefully you haven't forgotten about this crazy shit in the aitascope
and then they move on

Is there any actual evidence of this Ultima race or more than 1 black auracite rock or is this just wishful thinking
BWO????????????
That's Kloeh's face.
The Heart of Sabik even has the same brown things in the bottom
Isn't that just Chaos, the esper
>That part in the msq Zero and Estinien were fighting a bunch of things and you were nowhere near them
I don't get why they don't just place you near the edge of the screen and have the attack animation play
GUYS
WHAT ARE JOB STONES EXACTLY
Memories of previous use- oh...
Relic from 1.0 They don't know what to do with them in-game or gameplay.
not all crystals that have memories in them are auracite, that's why the aetherial sea is full of crystals full of memories.
those aren't auracite, right?
The same type of crystals as Ancient memory crystals, probably introduced into the world by Emet or Lahabrea at some point.
The exact same thing as Convocation memory crystals. Azem's has a spell stored in it, the job stones just expand on that capability.
They're Amiibo crystals, maybe auracite.
They enhance and store abilities of those deemed worthy, left behind memories of old masters. No they're not dead people or anything at least necessarily, MCH crystals were recently made.
The size of the healer AoEs now is so fricking funny. I can't even see kerachole's ends within my screen.
t
Why is it when we are worshiped as a god all our followers are a bunch of dipshit lizards that live in a field and frick horses?
Proof?
Job stones aren't auracites, you can literally factory make them and sell them for cheap to scam people (mch, blue mage)
the garleans literally, genuinely made auracite in a factory and used it for all kinds of attempts to make the ultima weapon 2/turn themselves into primals in the bozja/werlyt questlines
It's not really the same, job stones are blank until you imprint memories into them
Where IS the Cloud of Darkness anyway? Why isn't she chimping out at Golbez?
Because she got glomped
Still busy literally pulling herself back together.
I did not care for endwalker post msq story
No one likes it. People are only talking about Panda
There's nothing to care about.
It's garbage. You can feel the drop in quality as soon as EW's MSQ is over and they switch writers. It's absolutely palpable.
None of the characters are interesting or memorable and you don't care about a single thing that's happening. The main party member NPCs seem dumber and less charismatic than usual.
The whole thing feels like a Trials sidequest series that somehow got shoehorned into the MSQ.
Nobody does. It wouldn't have been so bad if it lasted like 2 patches instead of the whole post expansion. The pace is fricking horrendous.
>the only mystery left we need to know in 6.5 is why zero is an androgynous c**t.
i guess thats the cecil thing?
>why zero is an androgynous c**t
>Grew up with her single mother (warrior)
>Only taught how to fight and never trusted anyone else
>Just want to fulfil her mother's wish after her death
>Referenced in every cutscene as she or her
There is no mystery here.
uh yoshi said theres some reason. im thinking its more embellished ff 4 ties.
That's the obvious thing but that entire "Hero of Eld" shit is complicating things.
Remember how cool it was the first time we had to summon a party for a boss fight? Then we did it another 15 times.
Who the frick do we canonically summon anyway? Wols non npc friends? Randos?
Pandemonium raid dialogue said they're illusory phantoms. Fake friends.
That was the case for 1-8, when Elidibus and Lahabrea helped you. The last 4 fights are you just using the stone like in the MSQ.
>No one wants to be friends with wol because at any moment you could be teleported to them and told to fight a god
kek
Other WoLs.
WARRIORS FROM BEYOND THE RIFT, COMMENCE THE DUTY
Wasn't that just when graha/elidibus did it?
I'm not annoyed that we use it, i'm annoyed that we use it all the time.
When you did it for Zodiark I thought well ok, that means you won't have the crystal by the end of the story. When you did it for Barbariccia, I rolled my eyes and realized it's just gonna be like this forever now. One of the coolest moments in the game which mirrored the Exarch summoning has now been reduced to plot convenience for every 8-man piece of content.
Naked catgirls?
How much juice is left in this fricking thing anyway
It's clear we have to keep using it forever because of how convenient it is for explaining how you find party members
It has infinite charges. The only ability it has lost is Mommy's one time miracle.
>How much juice is left in this fricking thing anyway
If it works like job crystals, an infinite amount since you're the one actually fueling it, all it does is shape the aether into the summon spell.
I liked it better when everyone just pretended the WoL soloed bosses.
Did i speedread or did they not explain how Azem knew we would come as he told Elidibus?
"It came to him in a dream."
Didn't Elidibus say he had a vision of it happening, so it had to happen.
And how we came to know about it was that the kid sent a "help me Obi-wan" message we only got a part of.
I think.
More that Elidibus of the future suddenly remembered seeing your dumbass at Elpis when you brought him back at the crystal tower. You can imagine how he must've cringed to know he was just meant to job to you all along and his real purpose for millenia was to send you back to the past to potentially frick everything up or fix everything or both at once and ensure the timeloop happens.
>vtra jobbed hard to his weaken sister who got some void energy at the least
LMAO. you fricking dumb shit vtra. i keep losing respect for you
They absolutely fricking destroyed Vrtra in the post expansion story.
Golbez DO NOT REDEEM MY SISTER YOU BLOODY BASTARD b***h
>jobbed
he literally wasn't fighting back. jobbing is at least pretending to put up a fight.
he's a siscon, of course he's going to lose to his sister regardless of how much weaker she is than him.

I wonder if he's doing a bucket list and maybe we'll get Raid/Savage, Trial and Ultimate Diabro
Don't forget a fully voice farewell speech at the end of the new raid tier.
>the only reason they had estinien come up with that dog shit reason to not fly to azadalls island was because they didnt want to blow their wad animating it and saved it for 6.4
LMAO
unfortunately not even close to the Hraes vs Nigg fight
finally done with 6.4. The msq was amazing and I loved the raid tier ending.
>liked garlean padding . like the golbez NO U after the boss fight.
you have shit taste.
>All raid bosses this tier voice acted (never seen before)
>We got even a voiced cutscene, last time we got one was in Final Coil
Did the budget suddenly increase?
It's to make up this being half an actual expansion
Yeah I was surprised for them all to be voiced as well as the last cutscene, but Elidibus's VA is also the grumpy Garlean guy in the MSQ. It seems that since EW they've been reusing VAs where possible in order to get more lines, at least with ENG.
probably. I expect all trial bosses in 7.0 and dungeon bosses to be voiced.

>giving BPD women power under any circumstance
I'm not sure if I get this right but... Did that epilogue imply that the real Golbez died and that swordsman dude started impersonating him so that history remembers him as a hero?
Exactly. Question is if Golbez was actually killed in battle or betrayed.
The real Golbez ended up turning into darkness/something because the 13th lost a against the ascians, which activated the flood of darkness. he was turned into crystal to stop him from dying.
Yes. Real Golbez is dead and you poked his memoria stone.

Can you tell she's crazy by her complete lack of human body language?
This game is a subtle as a brick
Why didn't we at least have the option to tell aethereal sea laha that he becomes a mega schizo? It's not like it would effect anything since he's basically a ghost and with the looks WOL gives him it doesn't seem like they care about sparing his feelings
He knows he'll become a schizo
You can. Even if you chose not to, he still puts the pieces together himself.
He asks if he was the super hitler and you can tell him yes or you don't know but he accepts that he becomes that regardless.
why cant I create a character like this?
No self-inserting.
norfman manga?
What the frick is the Heart of Sabik and auracite anyway? Just alien rocks that behave like the one ring?
Yep, it's a corrupting rock that mindbreaks you
Rocks from an alien world.
There is no possible way this could become a problem in the future.
I like how there was the option to say

I avoided Panda raids because I'm a wowfugee and hearing the word Panda gives me PTSD flashbacks and panic attacks.
panda raids were good (throne of thunder)
