  • Re: FFXIV gets a 4.0 from Gamespot and other reviews & hilarious discoveries about FF

    I don't know what's more disturbing, the news or the source.

    The news is actually predictable.
    The fact people are ashamed of the source makes me question why they go for the news there.

    I mean sure, it has anime and manga, but I have to ask myself - what's the appeal of that other stuff there?

    Also, Time Mage cookie - people are waiting on this.

      Eh? I assume you think I'm ashamed of the source because I didn't link or cite it. I stopped linking it because of its other content. I arbitrarily didn't bother to cite it this time because I assumed people would rightly guess it's from the same source I've been using, as you did. I'm not sure why I started visiting the site in the first place, but I continue to check it semi-regularly because they post XIV-related news that isn't just a parroting of official releases. Not that I'm criticizing outlets that do the latter, I'm just saying that's 95% of the XIV reporting. Why I want to continue reading the downer XIV coverage Sankaku publishes would be a fair question, though.

      I will make three hats this weekend. Interest rates are at a record low. Any additional requests within reason?

        Well, the downer thing would be my follow-up. I think there isn't much left of the horse to beat here.

        As for the cookie hats, I believe user requests pointed to the notion you'll have to post pics

        Hey, its not me that holding you to this bet so much as its YM and everyone else. YM just won't let it go.

          To be fair I don't think there is anyone that takes Sankaku seriously with all of the lolicon hentai splashed over the banners and the owner's blatant disregard for actually researching the things he posts about.

          I've always had the theory that it started as a troll site like Encyclopaedia Dramatica but people actually started taking it seriously.

          To stay on topic, I still have fun with FFXIV, but between my RPLS falling apart, Cataclysm and FFXIV having no endgame to work towards means that I only really seem to pop on to go my leves for an hour or so then go and do something else.

          Same thing happened with Aion's release really though Aion did have an established PvP system to tide you over until they released actual content for the game. Then you have games like Warhammer Online that still doesn't have any content but the game is purely PvP (and you can hit 80 from nothing but PvP) anyway then there's WoW that likes to destroy it's content a year or so after releasing it but does have other things to distract you like Arenas or expansion hype events. The Cataclysm event was a MASSIVE rip off of FFXI's besieged but it was entertaining once people learned how to win at it.

            ^ If you're looking for a linkshell, you're welcome to join mine, its casual but the folks are alright.(Lately I've been coming across alot of people in dead shells, that needed a new home, its nice that mine is getting new blood but kinda scary that so many shells are losing their people.)

            Though the game won't be so lonely if the all those 1-4 people shells started clustering into bigger shells, so its alright.

            ----------------------

            I'm somewhat bummed that there isn't much if any coverage on what is happening to the game patch-wise, I'm hoping that SE starts advertising the game more after the Dec update.

              I insist on VIDEO EVIDENCE WITH WITNESSES of said hat eating. All I'm saying. And if they are not Red Mage pimp hats, then I will be all /disappointed.

                    I will submit that my knowledge of the actual terms is not as great as yours and as such I will concede that this is the case.

                      They're more like conical hats. But here's hoping!

                        It's not as easy as it looks though. So let's ask Konata for help with this.

                        After all Choco-Time Mage hats should be pretty much the same.
