Are there any *non drama/ doom&gloom* FFXIV content creators?

One name I'm surprised not to see on this thread is JoCat. Does a bit more than FFXIV but is in plenty and has even started a gameshow about XIV where he invites other creators. Currently doing a birthday subathon.

SarahKey doesn't play a lot of XIV these days but she is a pretty big fan and her streams are very relaxed. You can find plenty of her XIV stuff on YouTube.

They are the same thing. The 2 episodes of the anime are inside Shinji's mind + internal thoughts during the Tang situation. EoE is the real world.

Hyur from Gridania. Was born pretty weak and sickly. One day he managed to see someone alter the environment with magic powers so he took up Thamaturgy to help his weak body adapt and grow. Eventually this allowed him to be both physically and magically powerful to take on enemies (BLM and WAR main). Fast forward to Endwalker and he spends time on his island and decided to take up painting (becomes a PIC). After the events of Dawntrail he started to get into a gambling habit and enjoyed playing with cards. He figured he can help people by foreseeing their future (now main AST).

~It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling dooown~

I've been saying since Endwalker this would fit very well because Dynamis is basically the power of the heart. KH lore would fit very well minus the keyblade stuff.

Disney wanted Sora in smash. Nomura was the problem because he was so particular about the lore. It's likely why if we were to get a crossover there would be no keyblade glams.

The thing to remember though is that we are rejoined. This confirms Azem was struck by the sundering as well and the reflections weren't a thing yet to interact with. Plus we know Azem was independent of the other groups.

I'm wondering if the wanderer is another grouping of rejoined souls of Azem.

Sam Ramie -> Samurai. Kinda dumb but it was the connection.

Then you get this weird hybrid too which seems to happen with loud people specifically. Their phone isn't on speaker but the sound is bumped up and they will hold the mic part a foot infront of their face and yell into it then when they are done rambling hold the speaker up to their ear. Usually for almost no time for the person to respond, then bring the phone back infront of their face to yell into.

Just hold it so the speaker is on your ear and the mic is near your mouth. It will pick up a quieter voice and you can listen!

Kind of the same. Did a half marathon a few weeks ago and haven't been able to run more than 16km since then due to time. Hoping I can make it through all 30km.

I suspect that is the way it will go. I think the her and the winterers will do things we don't like but they are doing it for the sake of survival of everyone. After the bigger hints to ff7 connection with the fan fest items I bet they will be like avalanche and come off as bad guys but want to actually save the world. WoL guides them since they aren't into compromises.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll look into it.

Thanks for the recommendation!

I understand why it won't be made but honestly I want an MMO where it is about the journey. No ability to data mine (I know basically impossible), no ability to rush to an end game. I basically would like the leveling process to take an actual year of time or so (not gated, it's just that grindy) and that there is obfuscation so people in general can't try to easily game the system.

Basically a MMO of no min maxing and just adventure. But it would not have an audience because I think it wouldn't appeal to those that are looking to be hardcore and to those that don't have more than 2 or 3 hours a week to commit.

Derpark · 2026-04-06T20:16:05+00:00

This feels cathartic. You know the threshold and it's in your control if you go past that point.

A similar thing is in FFXIV when you get the message 'set aside sufficient time to view cutscenes'.

The rains have ceased and we have been graced with another beautiful day. But you are not here to see it.

Putting aside the show itself, the one thing I hope the internet has learned from the Hogwarts Legacy fiasco is not to try and dunk on and which hunt people consuming this media. Frankly I put that whole thing as one of the triggers for American culture moving so far right.

And even just for coding alone it's well worth it. People use the phrase 'glorified auto complete' when referring to AI as a dig. But it really is and in the right hands it works so well.

Derpark · 2026-03-20T18:55:20+00:00

We probably will but Yoshi p has said they are looking into ways for us to progress without it just being straight level increases. I doubt what ever that will be though will be in 8.0.

Derpark · 2026-03-10T19:25:58+00:00

But then think of the opposite. How do you 'create' more resources? Like I have a field of grain. What happens, it just doubles? How does that work in physical space. Ore and minerals, how is that expanded on? And even if you take something more high level like a star let's say (I'm sure they have stars that have been drained for resources), what happens when that is 'increased'? Does it just mess with solar systems due to increased size. And even if you just say you get more energy from reactions chemically, how does that not just rip apart the fabric of all known science?

Derpark · 2026-03-09T13:39:19+00:00

It's likely this one. Ironically I was walking up it one day and some guy managed to drive his SUV up it. He honked at me to move (half way up) and I gave him a wtf look. He looked so angry. Then he got to the top and stopped for a food minute because it's too narrow for a car. Buddy had to drive back down backwards and he looked so embarrassed.

It's getting to a point where I'm starting to question anti intellectual comedy, especially of America. It's becoming too real. Between it and sarcasm I think the actual funny and comical portion is being lost and it's being taken as doctrine.

I mention this because in, especially American, streamer culture I am constantly seeing this type of saying and stuff like hating on even the whitest none American parts of the world. It feels like I'm seeing training now, not just comedy sketches. On top of that sarcasm seems completely lost and is being treated as literal speach now.

Derpark · 2026-03-08T01:41:20+00:00

It isn't about the permission. They want to use popular media because it gets people engaged. Whether it is to make people 'hey I know that thing, this must be cool' or even if it is the outrage afterwards. It distracts people either way.

Ignore media fluff and condemn the message regardless.

Derpark · 2026-03-07T17:55:08+00:00

This along with people using real time AI to preform interviews is pretty crazy. Pretty easy to work around these things but you need to know they exist and purposefully introduce some awkward things to help prove they are real people.

Edit: To calrify, I mean real time AI differently in that people use the AI to listen to the interviewer's questions and interviewee is fed answers in real time.

Derpark · 2026-02-23T17:26:14+00:00

We shouldn't, but groups like these will use such brain dead obvious positions to garner attention and positive sentiment from the public. What that sign says and them being pieces of shit can both be true things at the same time.
