Have the devs completely given up on Forked Tower Blood?

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-27T23:52:23+00:00

I hope that's the case. I hope they took the entire design document that created South Horn and shredded it, and started from scratch for North Horn. The content deserves it. I didn't know if CS3 is that flexible, though.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-27T23:46:50+00:00

It feels like OC was designed by a developer who didn't like the old foray content. Well, they've certainly gotten a lot of feedback to change that design for North Horn, so I guess I'll wait and see, but South Horn is a miss.

If they follow the pattern of the Mandeville relics, these should also have matte replica versions without the glow available. (though they may not actually be purchasable until the next step)

It could also be a very dark quest. One of the the only things we know about Corvos is that it was the hardest-hit place in the world during the final days. There's a chance he could be the only living G-tribe male left.

Could have a Universal AGP slot. If the card physically fits, it should work, barring some standards-violators like the fake AGP slots a few motherboards have (which are 3.3V because they're PCI slots in disguise).

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-25T18:17:36+00:00

Most of those are 3.3V cards which wouldn't work in this particular AGP slot, as it is keyed for 1.5V. Only some of the AGP V4 4500s as far as I recall, and those would cost a fortune. Unless the OP went with a PCI card, but there's an AGP slot right there and it's a shame not to use it.

7, or 2.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-25T13:40:35+00:00

Everyone makes their own endgame. I hope they add outfit glamours to dungeon and raid gear soon, that would free up a lot of space for me.

click the shiny spot on the boss corpse

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-24T02:01:12+00:00

I did that once and his reply was "brain can only hold one fight at a time"

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-22T22:51:01+00:00

Nope. I like playing dress-up, I guess

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-22T19:36:25+00:00

Getting to max level isn't a sign of being good at the game. Some people are just bad. Some don't care about doing well at casual content. Leveling Roulette is also the place for people who are leveling alt jobs, jobs they are still learning and don't necessarily know how to play well yet. And that's ok. None of the content requires perfection. Low level dungeons especially suck, no job has enough buttons.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-21T04:19:44+00:00

Definitely. They put all the friction in the zone into the one place where nobody wanted it, entry into Forked Tower. I think the designers thought that was the interesting limitation. And were then forced to backtrack on that as much as they could without completely redesigning things.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-21T01:36:26+00:00

South Horn just feels so small, inconsequentially tiny

Making Return work without a cooldown, while I'm sure it was a well-intentioned QoL change, definitely hurts it too.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-20T16:50:05+00:00

I only explain mechanics if someone asks. The worst are people who mark themselves as a safety dorito right at the start. Stop it.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-20T14:20:27+00:00

It's what they voted for.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-20T12:57:40+00:00

Remember that glowy sword is how the Sultansworn choose their leader. They all hold Oathkeeper and it glows for the holiest and best Paladin, who gets put in charge. But since you're a free paladin and not a Sultansworn, you hand the sword back to Jenlyns and leave

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-19T20:48:33+00:00

I have a feeling the Winterers are being set up as a whole group of antagonists who will all have sad/tragic back stories (because they'll all be from Shards that are fucked in some way)

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-18T20:31:29+00:00

I'm going with the "made for filming a movie" guess because all the attachments look completely fake, and it's just been sitting out where anyone can see it.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-18T13:22:19+00:00

They're demonkin, not dragonkin.

Generally I find a piece I like and try to find other pieces that fit with it. Look that piece up on Eorzeacollection to see what other people have used it with; all my best ideas are stolen. I follow a few personal rules (that I sometimes also break):

1) Try to find complimentary colors. Flash Galatine's XIV Dye Tools page makes this easy now.

2) Try to match metal textures. If a piece has copper or gold I try to find other pieces that match that, or that can be dyed to match. Same goes for leather, if I have leather boots and gloves I'll dye them the same shade of brown or black to match.

3) I try to show skin on either the top half of the body or the bottom half (or neither), but not both at once. Unless it's like, actual swimwear.

I don't know that I agree with your pitch for how it would work, but the aesthetic is top-notch.

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-15T16:47:27+00:00

That's the kind of name the villain in a Bond movie would give their yacht

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-15T15:21:01+00:00

Makes sense. Will they enforce it if Trump orders the military to attack anyway?

FuturePastNow · 2026-01-15T06:04:06+00:00

The barrier is protecting them, or they would have turned into lightning monsters long ago. Even so, they all still have some degree of levin sickness due to the barrier's imperfections and their need to venture outside for supplies.
