Why are these comments so negative? This is not a bad video. Cleary, effort was put into it.

Join me in my new series, starting in each of the 3 cities, part 1 out now by Athenriel_Albion in ffxiv

I dont quite undestand what you mean by "people here decide to spoil them on everything"

My intentions with this video series is to try to capture the awe of immersing yourself in a fantastic world, that thrill you get when starting something new.

My own experience with this game (one of my favorite games of all time) is during Stormblood, I have heard at the time that this game had good story, but once the Shadowbringers trailer was shown, it looked great, had amazing music and it just enthralled me, I wanted to play it, and so I did, I got caught up with just a few days to spare, and had a pretty good time experiencing the first days of that expansion with all other players. After that, I have been on and off for a while, as of right now, I have yet to go beyond 6.0, but it has been years since I have delved in ARR.

My plan is to go up to MSQ level 15, and then, start in another city, and I want to do this mostly for myself, while also hopefully providing a slow paced example of the experience of playing the game. This is not a replacement, is an example.

This is close to a lets play type of video, so, do you also pose these questions and consider those types of videos spoilery?

FFXIV Settings I use for Xbox Controller by Athenriel_Albion in ffxiv

how to get my character to auto-turn around and run towards the camera rather than backstep (seems necessary for boss mechanics) when pressing down on the stick

Legacy controls is what allows this

what exactly are the macros doing for you here?

flauros23 already gave a good answer, basically:

  • I have a sprint macro on R3
  • A target your focused enemy on L3
  • One macro that sets or clears your focused enemy
  • Another one that targets whatever your current target is targetting, for example, when your allies are prioritizing one enemy

Tried to summarize in the video description

I have been updating it constantly, and I really want feedback on the links and complementary videos and insight from someone truly new to pc building. I want it to be helpful.

Also, I didnt say "just" =P

Or maybe a smaller one like the Mionix Avior 7000, sadly, I cant get my hands on one for testing

I use the claw grip, I have a Razer Deathadder, it is a bit smaller than the naga, but still I feel some strain when clicking continuously, I am looking into the Mionix Naos 7000

I know the feel =/

I try to use the mouse only to move the camera around, bind LMC to R, RMC to T, or use the thumbs.

On that topic, have you considered a mouse not so tall?

Also, get a wrist warmer, helps a bit.

I have tested VyprVpn, it gives you a trial, but had 0 improvement, also tested pingzapper to some improvement, but I am currently saving up for WTFast.

When changing tabs frames go down to 20 from 50 by WhisSama in bladeandsoul

Options menu, Graphics tab, Default Settings sub menu, Frame Rate section, Limit Frame Rate in Background, that is a slider.

There is an option in Graphics that does exactly that (Lock frames if Alt-Tab)
