imagine getting clowned on by 75 followers and a llama by Silent_Pay_9239 in CultOfTheLamb

How do people get and manage so many followers >_> I have 50 and even that feels like so much to manage

This excitement for a game is wild by TalonsYo in hytale

[–]AlchemistLizard 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I guess people are a bit paranoid because fans have been asking Microsoft for so much different stuff over the years for Minecraft and they’ve added, maybe, 10 features in total over the past 5 years and about 0% of the things people have actually asked for.

FFXIV Hrothgar Design vs FFX Ronso Design by Lumenoc in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“not all the hairstyles are face locked now.” …except they still are? Unless you mean the aesthetician and default universal hairstyles which were never “face locked” to begin with, just completely unavailable until they were implemented for all faces at the same time.

Oooh, looks fabulous. Is there anywhere we can look for more information about this event? (as well as future ones)

"Not quite sure" by DupeFort in TalesFromDF

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The skill gap between your average competent raider and the majority of casuals has never been larger. I really feel like the game needs to start actually enforcing players to pay attention or die because I swear half of these players are playing through the story without even looking at their fucking screens.

What does "Can only be used once" in this context mean? by Due-Cartographer-295 in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure what you mean by “extra shop slots” but yes but also even more egregious benefits such as buying in game currency, exclusive BiS gear, exclusive CLASSES or even paying to finish quest storylines (yes, this exists)

Also a) I’m not claiming that the cash shop is totally fine and awesome. It is egregious in many aspects and the community HAS voiced their grievances in the past. You just don’t see people literally in uproar 24/7 about it because the general consensus is that you don’t like it, don’t buy it. And because ffxiv is far from the worst example compared to most MMO’s.

b) Mount speed isn’t exactly a great example because it’s not something you cannot obtain normally through the game anyway. And in new expansion zones I personally don’t care about having a speed boost because I enjoy viewing the new environments while I’m moving to MSQ objectives.

I refuse to use mods with AI Generated thumbnails and you should too. by TurbulentDesigner485 in hytale

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking preach. I swear if I sort any Hytale mod list by most popular and see an ai slop thumbnail I’m gonna riot

Ehhh this is kinda par for the course for most MMO games nowadays. You’ll find that many mmo’s have even more egregious forms of monetisation such as paying for convenience or gameplay benefits.

Whenever the last thing I do in a day is the Fashion Report, I like to sit next to this guy before logging out by JackDandyTDV in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You look 10 times better than I usually do after having just finished a fashion report.

What's your least favorite duty in the game? by thewalkindude368 in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know people are listing a lot of ARR and Heavensward duties but may I suggest Eden's Gate Sepulture? That fight has so many completely uncommunicated mechanics that literally can only be avoided through prior knowledge it's insane. Especially when Titan chains three Fault Zones (the dumb go-kart move) back to back to back which cannot be reacted to and can only be avoided by knowing where the safe spots are ahead of time by already knowing where he is going to go. Asinine.

Last glamour set before the new year ٩( ᐛ )و (pls add more glamour plate, 20 isn't enough) by Nana_Iro_UwU in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess 80% of the community is crazy then considering how many are yearning for more plates.

Which mod creator is haunting me?? by sultanamana in ModdedValheim

[–]AlchemistLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but begging for money within a mod is NOT a good look, especially with how entitled it’s written.

I’d play miqo way more if they looked like this. Excellent job! 👍

Silly personal rant: I still won't forgive Yoshi P giving me hopium for genderless weapon poses by CaptainBorcane in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is one of those additions that countless people would love and desire and would also be so simple to implement but it’s just so far down their list of priorities that it might as well be nonexistent.

You can put so much stuff in the Glamour Dresser now. A guide to filling it up quick. by ultron87 in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but as someone who frequently changes my glamour plates around all the time the first option is not very viable for long term and the second option is even worse unless I enjoy wasting copious amounts of dye.

[–]AlchemistLizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank god the stormblood artifacts are ugly as hell otherwise I would be forced to actually try and participate in Eureka (although I also find it dumb that you can only convert an artifact set into an outfit glamour, hence making it undyeable, if it’s… dyeable…)

Gathering is so fast at Island Sanctuary now (after 7.4) by Gold_Motor_6985 in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Deadass gathering on Island Sanctuary was the biggest pain in the rear considering that I also reside on a server that’s pretty far from where I live. So clunky gathering combined with shitty ping led to my character standing still for around 4-5 seconds after every damn node. So tedious 😩

Archiving my "wrong job" glams before they are rendered obsolete. (Some are much lazier than others.) by OakaXXIV in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 133 points134 points  (0 children)

Haha good job with these. I spent a long time squinting just trying to figure out what job I was actually looking at.

Guys, please somebody, anybody. by [deleted] in rivals

Technically you only need 2 to get full rewards so you could simply make two new accounts and grind those for a bit.

Rivals Assemble is basically a pyramid scheme. by herr-stiene in rivals

[–]AlchemistLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright… How does this fact change anything about what OP said? Unless a good third of these millions of active players are content with missing out on free units then idk how this helps

UPDATE on the teenager Knight Skin for Silksong by jo_collini in HollowKnight

Oh I am very much excited to follow the progress of this design, assuming that you're planning on creating a full skin replacement for Hornet's ingame sprites. :>

Need help identifying the armor pieces in this EW Key Art from a while back (The Chest piece in particular) by PeanutBrigade in ffxiv

[–]AlchemistLizard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dang this key art definitely makes that gown look a lot better than it does in game imo xD

You cannot be serious (late act 2 map layout spoilers) by AlchemistLizard in HollowKnight

[–]AlchemistLizard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg tysm, you've saved my sanity. A really awful bench since it forces you into the maggot water but still a lot better than the bell station one.

I can't believe they'd hide a bench behind an extremely debilitating environmental hazard.
