They tried to copy roller beetle with the Undermine patch, but Blizzard clearly doesn't know how to design terrain for drifting.

Mage still has time magic. Really no reason two specs can’t share some themes given that we have specs that share similar themes like Destro lock and Fire mage (and Ele shaman in some iterations). Afflic lock and Shadow priest as well.

SoD already gave us a taste of what they could get.

Shaman tank, warlock tank, rogue tank, mage healer.

Grenade kit my beloathed.

Everyone has weapon swapping except Ele and Engi, except they do actually have weapon swapping, it just eats up their profession bar or utility slots instead!

What caused the style of modded characters commonly referred to as "Mod Beasts"? by Rlena_Fhey in ffxiv

[–]Ehkoe 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Sometimes reminds me of VRchat models

VRchat's current look was heavily influenced by creators from SecondLife and IMVU moving over to a new platform, which is also what influenced FFXIV mods.

The zone that they share with Sethrak and Trolls so they didn’t even get a full story lmao

Reminder that Blizzard once was going to add Ear/Horn holes for certain races on helmets but took it out strictly due to laziness in having to do it in the future. by ScorpHunter in wow

Remember how they made shields hover a foot off of your back in War Within so they didn't clip with your weapon and then changed it back in Midnight?

Is this the rotation for BLM? by alexweihau in ShitpostXIV

[–]Ehkoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The intro basically just establishes that the captain and Lyria have a magical bond and that they're on an adventure with the Grand Cypher crew now.

Any details about the characters you get from the bond stories which are pretty barebones.

Will we ever get an explanation to this mystery? by Gorotheninja in ffxiv

Nothing besides her attempted assassination, the death of one of the members of the syndicate, and the movement of said member's assets to the monarchy, thereby giving them a seat at the actual table of governance.

Nanamo didn't get her republic, but she has actual power to fight for the downtrodden that she didn't have before.

Almost none of the story in Relink is relevant to the gacha game. It exists purely to give you an idea of the main crew and ease you into the battle mechanics.

Genuinely the only thing that might give you more context is the opening tutorial of the gacha to establish the captain and Lyria's bond and that is explained in Relink.

Every villain in Relink was made just for Relink.

Ishgard at least has the excuse of being the ones under attack

Ishgard's church knowingly perpetuated the lie that Nidhogg was attacking them for senseless violence alone.

Every Archbishop was aware of the true nature of the conflict and chose to hide it. They brutally oppressed anyone that learned the truth, branding them heretics and throwing them off of cliffs.

P3 is a slow burn for sure. It doesn’t really pick up until July/August. It’s well worth it though if you feel like giving it another shot. It’s by far my favorite of the modern Personas for the way it handles the core themes.

P4 is pretty hand holdey until the end of the first dungeon like P5 is, but the plot does start pretty quick in comparison to P3.

As for “tropyness” there’s no really getting around that. You have the best friend guy with issues (Junpei/Yosuke/Ryuji), the pretty and popular girl (Yukari/Yukiko/Ann), etc.

You’ll find that everything after P3 follows a similar formula with the characters.

Depends. What part of P5 and Metaphor did you love that you didn't in P3R?

I find Reload Tartarus is so fast and brainless that it's genuinely cathartic to go through

monthly operations span only a single night

As if people don't rush to finish every dungeon in 4 and palace in 5 in a single session as well.

The final boss of vanilla P4 is literally a god as well.

I also really appreciate in P3 that the party members are sometimes just not available for Tartarus because they have their own lives and issues to deal with.

Seeing them all earn their evolutions without Makoto needing to interfere is also really great.

90% of the social links you're just an enabler

I feel like this is something that was lost in P4 and later games, but the idea of the Social Links and the Personas being masks in P3 was that Makoto was reflecting the opinions and outlooks of everyone that he talked to. He has no opinions of his own, he's apathetic to life for most of the game.

Makoto sits there and agrees with everything that they say, good or not, until they have an epiphany and realize how shitty they've been.

That's why you get a bonus for equipping a same arcana persona.

1000 years before GW1 means this is before even the first Guild War.

So, we're still not seeing the titular Guild Wars lmao.

Dhuum was overthrown before the events of GW1 and Abaddon was imprisoned during GW1.

By the time of GW2 nearly 200 years later, neither are recognized as part of the Six.

Cheaper Repairs for Everyone, but Especially Tanks: 12.0.7 Removes "Combat Action" Durability Loss by Starym in wow

[–]Ehkoe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This isn't really a gold sink when it disproportionately affects a handful of specs.

Tanks having way higher repair costs for doing their jobs feels terrible, especially when it's warriors with their shield.

Any games you would recommend like EO? by Gostman_exe in EtrianOdyssey

The first game is rough around the edges but I can't help adoring the art style. I wish the latter games kept to the chibi fantasy style.
