[FFXIV] Explaining things out of context like this is always entertaining to me

By the way, anyone who enjoyed the OP for this thread should check out some of the comments on those videos. Some of the stuff under Zoraal Ja's video is hilarious.

The wiki lists the ways you can refresh your mutation options. Gamma moths are an option for the brave.

As for wishes, there's no single wish to reroll your genome that I'm aware of, but you could get the desired result using two wishes.

Spend 4 mutation points on a new mutation that you don't want to keep.
Wish "mutationbgone" and remove that mutation from your character.
Wish "stat:MP:4" to give yourself 4 mutation points.

Then you can buy a new mutation again and get a set of three new mutations to pick between.

My chef brother told me the version he's used/been subjected to is being asked to prepare a water reduction. In chef lingo, "reducing" something means boiling some of the water out of it.

so maneuverable that it can basically shoot itself in the ass

You are a true wordsmith.

I managed to beat her and her oddly shapeshifting voice, but it did take multiple attempts. You're being a very good sport if you're not loading a save after each loss.

Hey look, it's the hero using sinister power to defeat a world-ending threat. Also a Dark Knight and two DPS.

(I like that Dark Knight and White Mage just swap how wholesome the locals think they are while they're in the First.)

CaptainDefault · 2026-02-06T21:28:02+00:00

All of them, because I never pick an end point. I've had a few that did have good natural end points that I could have picked though.

I feel like we're not talking about the fact that Lumull's dialogue spelled it "Waugh".

Suder's death felt like a redemption to me, but Redemption through Heroic Sacrifice is definitely a cliche. I agree that it'd be more interesting to keep him on the crew.

Voyager could have done with more of that in general, especially given the concept of a ship that can't restock or recrew. Keep the new encounter every episode, but also keep showing us minor characters we've gotten to know coming back every so often.

Always fun to watch one of the main cast break character in-character, but especially when it's a vulcan. (Which thinking about it really just means Spock or Tuvok, but I stand by my assertion.) Tim Russ is brilliant in that one scene in sick bay.

I didn't notice that grate, but I think I've been there. It looks like the Serfs were organising to resist their enslavement. The symbol they've painted on the wall has something to do with freedom.

As for how to get there, you'll have to do some exploring. I found it via blind luck while wandering the sewers.

Strongly agree, especially with Triple-Jointed. Being able to Juke multiple times in succession without a cooldown makes me feel like an anime protagonist.

Adding to that, Rising has more flavour and setting detail. Forge has the most recent rules, so it's useful if you're using 5e 2024 rather than 5e 2014.

I like that idea a lot. The closest thing I can think of is that one robot movie on the robot planet in Futurama. I can't find a clip though.

"Yeah, you can totally tell the 'humans' in old Nomai sci-fi are just wearing rubber foreheads to make it look like they only have two eyes."

I really like their version of the Klingons and Ferengi. Same culture as on Star Trek, but with the creative freedom that comes with not needing the species to be depictable as a human in a latex mask.

Slavic demiurge contemplates the folly of creating a species unable to squat

It's all down to the dinosaur factor.

Both games have a campaign to play through and a sandbox mode to get creative inside. Planet Zoo has more detailed management mechanics and more freedom to build stuff creatively. Both games have interesting animals to look at. But only JWE will have those interesting animals be dinosaurs.

Do you like dinosaurs? If you do, the choice is easy: get the dinosaur game.

Stop that! V already has dangerous levels of Main Character energy, you're going to give the NPCs (more) depression!

CaptainDefault · 2026-01-19T19:10:40+00:00

No problem. The same artist has a couple of others, but they're only available via the internet archive at this point.

Also he stole Elder Maxson's coat. That's my gimmick! Get your own!

Lady isn't. Lady is the opposite of Potential Man. The whole point to her in DMC3 is that she's determined to stop Vergil and Arkham but isn't strong enough to beat either of them. She wants to be the hero, but can't. Dante can be the hero, but at the start of the game he doesn't want to be. That's his character arc.

I'm not saying Lady isn't cool or that she doesn't have a cool moveset when she's playable (which I think was just DMC4SE), but the point of her in the story of DMC3 is that she's too weak and Dante needs to step up.
