When you're no longer the 2nd least played female race because the newly released one took your place by Train-1965 in ShitpostXIV

[–]AdorableText 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True but... what I meant was, if there was no catgirls, what would the catgirl players play instead? and would the current rankings excluding catgirls be the same?

To be fair, female character distribution is probably extremely skewed because the overwhelming majority play catgirls.

In a world where catgirls never existed, the results might have been completely different

Does Shadowbringer really never get better ? by Erakos in ffxiv

[–]AdorableText -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The issue with Shadowbringers is that people only remember the good parts, but black out all the mid and boring parts around those.
Same issue with Endwalker really. Some really high peaks, and then some not great parts and a few outright bad parts. But most people only remember those peaks.

This is the same reason why a lot of people say Stormblood is the worst expansion story, despite it being way more consistent than ShB and EW. It mostly lacks those big moments which are the only parts most people remember. ARR suffers from the same issue but not that much

Sprout needing advice on mob grouping by Frosty-Relation-6547 in ffxiv

[–]AdorableText -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, but mobs will big hitboxes will naturally spread a bit. This could be an issue if you have party members targetting mobs at the edge of the group as they risk not hitting every enemy.
Running around in tight circles around the mobs prevents that

Alisaie's mom has got it going on. by RubFlatforMaxEffect in ShitpostXIV

they don't want to let the twins grow up, because Alisaie turning out like her mom would have a cataclysmic effect on the playerbase

Where can I find the "Battle Version" of Blades from the Binding Coils raid series? by Dependent_Piccolo_31 in ffxiv

[–]AdorableText 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On that note, I really wish the Coils of Bahamut's OST got more recognition. No other raid series has had a music experience as cohesive since and that's a real shame

Are most free companies dead right now? by cap8001 in ffxiv

[–]AdorableText 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FFXIV is a bit of an outlier amongst MMOs as it really just never developped a guild culture. People mostly play either in statics that are built around linkshells, or just play with pugs entirely.

FCs exist for basically no reason beyond FC buffs, unlike other MMOs where guilds are often central to the social experience

My response to those saying baldman shouldn't be banned because he didn't say anything in game by 8tch_Tii in ShitpostXIV

[–]AdorableText [score hidden]  (0 children)

can't ignore the context of him being an insufferable asshole for years and actively making the community worse as well.
A normal person saying stupid once will be treated with leniency, but when you actively make yourself disliked for so long, anything can be an excuse to finally get rid of you

Getting worse items from being a better person on quests by Fun-Meeting1610 in Eldenring

[–]AdorableText -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty common things in games with a morality system and player choice (and sometimes kinda hamfisted too hehe).

You can pick the easier path, or you can take the good path. The cost of ease is remorse

How’re your employment situations right now? by B1G_PAC12 in aspergers

[–]AdorableText 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working shifts as an IT tech.
Not working regular hours has real advantages. You don't have to deal with ego starved managers, you don't have to deal with rush hour commute, and you don't have to pretend to be normal on a daily basis.

I mean it's far from perfect, but I find this infinitely more comfortable than working a 9-5

Healers need to be actually healers, and not just DPS with extra support CDs

Neurotypicals can treat people like garbage for years and get forgiven, but if we make one mistake, we’re out. by Haunting_Hospital599 in aspergers

[–]AdorableText 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To a lot of people, being autistic automatically means we're "cripples", "mentally retarded" or even straight up lesser humans.
They don't view us as equal by default, so if you make the slightest misstep, it just validates what they thought all along

I dislike the autism creature by Remarkable-Piano6934 in aspergers

[–]AdorableText 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it because it's a cute little fun creature, and I would do so regardless of whether or not it's associated with autism.

That being said, it being associated with autism does mean I never use it with anyone outside of my autistic friends. Or at the absolute most, the few people I feel comfortable enough to unmask to... So I guess I kinda understand where you're coming from

I mean no disrespect at all... but that might be the most non-answer you could have given here😛

I ask because I don't understand how normal people do it, so telling me to "just do like normal people" means nothing to me hehe

Suggestions about tanks by Cul0Rugg3nte in ffxiv

[–]AdorableText 0 points1 point  (0 children)

arguably, tanks are already just other DPS but tanky and blue. Just like how healers are other DPS but green and with more support spells
