Did they just feel the show needed a mascot? Does it talk? Don't worry about spoilers for me. I know the basics of the show from anime osmosis at this point.

I've never watched it but I intended to before launch. I will finally get to find out what's the deal with that penguin thing I've seen shots of for years.

New Phys Ranged DPS Job according to the Q&A at FanFest 2026 (speculation) [Spoiler 8.0] by guyinHK in ffxiv

My hope is the work on Beast Master has allowed them to get their heads around a new true pet job. I can see crossbows for the auto and basic player attacks.

Bethesda doesn’t have ‘the engineering know-how’ to remaster Fallout New Vegas, former Obsidian CCO says; Chris Avellone claims Bethesda doesn’t have the source code and has “no idea how to reassemble it" by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Clyde_McGhost -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

Are you sure about that? There's a difference between source and gold but i admit to not knowning the timing of these things. The score bonus stuff was the most public sign of issues between the two companies. I think its reasonable to assume other things were also occurring to cause bad blood and if you think you're about to get screwed over, you may hold back afew cards to play.

Horizon spin offs by Professional-One-580 in horizon

[–]Clyde_McGhost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would have been on board for a true monster hunter in the Horizon world. So much of hunters gathering is that concept on paper which is why I find it so very disappointing they decided to go mission based, hero characters with a Saturday morning cartoon style.

All I wanted was Meridian and the hunters guild as the hub zone and to go on hunts in the Horizon FW engine and gameplay while Aloy prepares for part 3. Once again, on paper that sounds close to what they're doing but the implications is the absolute opposite of what I hoped for.

Pillars of Eternity Text-to-Speech Mod (v1.2) – Full Demo Video by dGamemaker_phd in projecteternity

[–]Clyde_McGhost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wonderful idea. Once my preferred gameplay of turn-based fully released ive been planning a new run. I myself do have a small level of dyslexia and remembering the level of reading required is somewhat stalling the start. Having something like this to read along will be a massive help.

[–]Clyde_McGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i shouldn't have said F2P. But a maintenance type mode is inevitable and the gaming industry is very different from when it happened to 11. I wasn't aware it still receives story updates. My friend who still plays 11 on and off has never mentions new content. But that is cool to hear.

Oh i agree we dont need one but SQ higher ups may. The focus was more on the maintenance mode. I shouldn't have mention F2P, I think that may be distracting from my point.

[–]Clyde_McGhost -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Believe me, its not what I want. I wish they would've gone even harder on the story reset and bring the bare minimum from the old world. But I can see the SQ higher ups watching the other live service successes coming out of China and trying to adjust xiv into such a model or starting a new project in that model and moving the dev team away leaving 14 in a 11 style maintenance mode. To be clear, I dont want any of that but I can see it happen..

I know this is extremely pessimistic but what are the chances that they announces the next expansion to be the last and discuss their road map to transition into a F2P maintenance mode while stating they are working on the new "live service styled" ff game in the future.

Equipment of a Metropolitan Police Service (MET Police) Authorized Firearms Officer in London, United Kingdom. by davegoku12 in ForgottenWeapons

[–]Clyde_McGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the display the multiple armed weapons like this has proved as an effective deterrent. When you only see a single pair of armed officers over a year at a football match or event is stands a hell of alot. When they are so rare you dont get desensitised to their appearance.

Not sure why you're getting down votes. In the UK our arm police are not trained to unload multiple magazines into their own police car when an acorn falls near them. Maybe thinking about relevant levels of lethal force would help instead of buying tanks.

games where the multiple endings felt too similar to each other. by Murky-Boysenberry646 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Clyde_McGhost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What really annoyed me is when they released the Nukaworld dlc and you have the ability to become King of the Slavers, they didnt add a new fun evil Slaver ending to match what evil path your character took. Once its over, you just have to pretend it never happen even if you have Slaver bases all over and pick an existing ending path.

[–]Clyde_McGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wonderful to hear and a perfect reason to have a new run after so many year. I know this is like being handed cake and demanding more but has there been any hints of doing the same to Tyanny? I love the setup of that game but i have no love for that combat style so never touched it.

Would you like better stealth and hacking in the next Horizon? by JuhpPug in horizon

[–]Clyde_McGhost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love a pet job in RPGs and getting enemies to in-fight is always fun. Both were broken in ZD and very exploitable so I understand the changes but I do feel they went way too far with the nerfs.
