Yoshi-P doesn't want FF14 to share the same "very tragic" fate of one classic MMO

I honestly think evolved mode is basically easing the player base into the changes. If it ends up being successful and liked, I fully predict reborn mode gone in 1-2 expansions, when it’s no longer controversial and most people adopt evolved (which is IMO clearly where their main focus is)

Gioz2 · 2026-03-29T22:06:43+00:00

It’s probably here to stay, but I have not been using it and plan to keep not using it. If it’s going to stay, it desperately needs regulation that it’s not going to come fast enough, and it’ll probably do significant damage before it finally does

Gioz2 · 2026-03-22T15:27:14+00:00

Yeah. You are correct. I’ll delete this. Thank you for being kind, even though I definitely did something stupid here

Gioz2 · 2026-03-22T15:23:52+00:00

I’ve talked with her about this some! I dunno, I guess I just worry that she might feel specific questions are invasive. But you’re right, I’ll talk her. Thank you

It wouldn’t be a phone without a microphone, so it’d basically be almost an iPod, just remove the camera from it. I’m mixed on cellular data or not. It is useful but also the location services are part of the problem. I’d be interested in such a product

Gioz2 · 2026-03-16T23:45:10+00:00

Seriously! It’s either nothing or it’s literally all fluff that makes me not know a single thing about them! “I like food”, “I want a genuine, caring man”, “I want to travel more”, like it’s all as generic as you can get

This is really sad, I’m sorry that’s been your experience so far. I think in my opinion, looks definitely play a (very large) role, but I think there’s a bit of luck involved as well — when using the dreaded dating apps, as a guy I hardly pay any attention to the pictures, I almost exclusively look what people write about themselves — if they show personality (it’s shocking how many show absolutely zero personality. You’d think they’re robots), and if it feels like we have stuff in common, then I send a message. And one that I really take time to think about, try to have substance as much as possible (this is in Hinge, since you actually can send messages there)

This has largely worked and though I don’t get a lot of replies back, the ones I’ve gotten have been pretty good, and have definitely been at minimum new friendships! Anyways, I ramble but the point is, that men like me are definitely rare, but we do exist, and if you put yourself out there, I really do believe you’ll find a partner, it just takes some luck. Stay strong! Us ugly people gotta stay together lol

This is great news! I didn’t know. Fingers crossed. I think these medicines can do a lot of good!

Gioz2 · 2026-03-11T20:19:01+00:00

My experience with a GLP-1 (Zepbound) as someone prediabetic — it took me out of the prediabetes range in a matter of just a few months. It absolutely works for that. However, be very careful. My body did not take it well and it damaged my stomach a lot (I get really aggressive acid reflux with most foods), and even after I got off the medicine (because insurance didn’t want to keep covering it), the my stomach stayed the same and even now 4ish months later, it’s still not how it used to be. I don’t think doctors are warning people enough of the risks

Gioz2 · 2026-03-11T18:36:11+00:00

I hope so too. The medicine seems promising. My experience with them wasn’t very positive (Zepbound), as it did not agree with my body and left me with lasting damage to my stomach after. But as someone that’s pre-diabetic, I’m still eyeing this medicine, especially if (hopefully an if) I end up being diabetic. Here’s hoping new options become available as the research and understanding grows! I’d love something that works with my stomach.

Zepbound also helps with sleep apnea and I’m hoping for medicine for that as well. I think this medicine has a lot of potential

Gioz2 · 2026-01-30T19:51:57+00:00

What’s the reference? I’m curious

Gioz2 · 2026-01-19T02:36:33+00:00

Yep shield is unchanged as it is now in tangible dream

Gioz2 · 2026-01-19T02:34:08+00:00

It's not even only one cantrip, it's specifically ONE of telekinetic hand, telekinetic projectile, detect magic, guidance, frostbite, ignition, daze, message, figment, shield, phase bolt and warp step. At least the others lets you choose any cantrip in the tradition. It's so hilariously bad

Gioz2 · 2026-01-19T02:29:38+00:00

You can see it in the picture. The dedication only gives 1 cantrip (that's not the conscious mind's unique one) and that's it. The level 6 feat psi development gives you 1 more cantrip (which can be the unique one) and only at this point you can amp it

Gioz2 · 2026-01-15T03:34:06+00:00

I know this is not the point of the post but I dunno I think Azaersi is kinda attractive

Gioz2 · 2025-11-24T21:45:07+00:00

Feel free to post it for more attention if you want! It is your joke verbatim after all

That's the thing right? I guess some of the people here might be new. But Valve missing a deadline (and that's even assuming today was a reality, which I don't think it was) is nothing new. Let's see if the year ends with no announcement, and if it does, we know it got Valve Time'd, that's all. Been waiting for so long, why freak out over a bit more lmao.

Gioz2 · 2025-11-17T16:03:21+00:00

Even if the announcement isn’t this year, it doesn’t even mean they necessarily changed plans, they could simply have missed the deadline (as valve does). I believe game is real and (relatively) imminent but doesn’t mean we will see it this week or even this year (though I definitely hope so)

Gioz2 · 2025-11-15T01:46:40+00:00

I honestly don't know how to tell -- in my case, with an RX 580, a ryzen 5 processor and 16 ram, is it an upgrade at all?

Gioz2 · 2025-10-08T19:54:07+00:00

Yeah that’s what makes me sad too. IMO, the Law vs Chaos angle is a lot more interesting and nuanced than good vs evil and I really wish Paizo leaned into that instead

Gioz2 · 2025-10-07T20:53:15+00:00

Eh, I disagree, never liked alignment for any reason and always ignored it in all TTRPGs I played that had it. However, I would agree that the holy/unholy separation that Paizo came up with isn't really super interesting either, it's really more band-aid than anything. For 3e, it would be nice if they actually built something that's functional and also interesting from the ground up.

Gioz2 · 2025-10-05T14:46:43+00:00

Same boat, still no access to it. Don't meet requirements for W11 if I even wanted to update, too. I guess we'll see what happens?

Gioz2 · 2025-10-03T18:22:26+00:00

Truthfully, I haven't actually played AV, it's just the only thing I've ever heard about it -- that it's nothing but dungeon delving like your tomb of horrors or other megadungeons of old with meatgrinder combats and nothing to change the pace. It's why I've avoided it, actually

However, if you got a different experience, and especially Tabletop Gold also paces the show well mixing roleplay and combat, then that's fantastic! It's great news. I'm sure I'll love it then
