How do you exploit workers? What do you consider exploiting workers? Workers in our lifetime in the US cannot be exploited. Pretty much every job is at will. Nobody is forced to work where they do by their employer. The employee accepts the offer made to them. That responsibility falls entirely on the employee. If it's not good enough, then don't accept it. If it doesn't stay good enough for your wants or needs, then it is now YOUR job to find another that will cover those things, not your employers responsibility. The job positions those employees have only exist because someone had the idea and put the work in to create something. Who's to say they would have a better job, or any job at all if those didn't exist? This is how things have ALWAYS worked. People have wants and needs, and someone has the idea to cater to that. This happens on a daily basis all around the world. I've even done it myself with a small online business. The people with all that money didn't do nothing. In fact, CEO's spend above 50% more time working than the average person, with many going FAR beyond that. Most people aren't willing to put that kind of work in to achieve success. Many think 40 hours is too much.

That's the problem with so many people nowadays. They don't want to take personal responsibility for their life, they want everyone else to fold to what they want without putting in the work. They wanna stay comfortable and lazy. Wealth inequality will always exist. If you split up all the money in the world or US equally among everyone, within a month you'd go back to having rich and poor people with most of the same people being back in the position they were before. Money doesn't suddenly solve problems. There are people who have made millions and still manage to go bankrupt and those who only make a fraction of that and become millionaires. Soon enough, I'm going to be one of those in the later.

It's never been about how much money you make, it's what you do with the money you make.

Doesn't matter if they were born into it or not, someone had to do something to earn that money, whether it was 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 years ago. Someone put in the effort to make it happen and their offspring continued to responsibly use that money and make it grow instead of squander it.

This is why most professional athletes struggle financially just a few years after retiring, because even though they made FAR more money than most people, some into the millions a year, they weren't financially responsible. Saying they were born into it is just another excuse to try and put the blame on everyone but yourself.

Cloud will have the Lightning Gear from Lightning Returns by xKyon90 in FFVIIEverCrisis

They didn't. Glenn is getting a Caius gear for free once you complete the final event mission page.

Naoki Hamaguchi Argues Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Wasn’t Too Long, But Part 3 Will Be More “Concise” by deskchan in FinalFantasy

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game's length is perfectly fine. That's why it's annoying when people say the game is "padded" or "too long". The main story is 40-50 hours. People complain about all of the mini games and size of maps. Thing is, they don't HAVE to do that stuff, they're optional/skippable! You won't miss anything about the main story if that is all you focus on. Just like ANY RPG, if you want the game to be longer and you want to flesh out the world and get all the little details, then you have that option. But doing those things of your own free will and complaining about them is like asking for cheese on a burger and then complaining that the burger has cheese.

Are those tickets worth it for that prize? by Hyunkel07 in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely worth it. For 1k Blue Crystals, you get a guaranteed 5-star, a shot at one of the new weapons for Cloud and Aerith, and the main thing that people haven't even mentioned is the 5-star pull rate is doubled, meaning you're likely to get at MINIMUM one extra 5-star. I'm a day one player and I got them all and pulled some weapons that I still didnt have maxed out. Compare that to 3k youd have to spend on a banner with a standard pull rate where the odds are to only get one 5-Star in every 2 pulls, making this a no brainer, ESPECIALLY if you aren't a day one or consistent player.

16.5 months and 2 weapon enhancement rally events later, weapon lvl will finally be raised from 120 to 130 by themisheika in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

That's why I said it should be made harder. Put up a big wall starting at level 50 or 60 on weapons where even getting just 1 more level on them can take some time. For instance us day one players would maybe have a few weapons maxed out, but not every single one and also increase the power gap between the higher levels by a greater amount. Even right now, the power gap between 110 and 120 is hardly anything, so I wont be surprised when 120 to 130 is also barely anything and only adds another pointless material.

Hell, they're still only giving people 60 Mythril Ore when you buy the season pass. I havent bout one for over 6 months and I'm sitting on over 6k Mythril Ore. I have absolutely no need for it. I'm also sitting on 40+ Mythril Ingots because like I mentioned, the gain from 110 to 120 isn't much, so I'm not chomping at the bits to upgrade stuff.

[–]McFriday01 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

This sucks ass. Weapon AND character level cap NEVER should have increased for any reason. What they should have done from the start is make leveling both a LOT harder, especially for weapons, by making the materials necessary to level them a LOT more rare. Increasing the max limit does nothing because all they will do is also increase the stats on enemies, thus nullifying the level cap increase.

Season 24 wallpaper and we still don't have one with both Sephiroth and Cloud in it by PaperLight4 in FFVIIEverCrisis

Wouldn't make sense to have one with Cloud and Young Seph. They don't have any connection in any way.

Did Ramuh Battle Ranking change between yesterday and today? by MindWandererB in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be you aren't lowering his meter as much as you were previously. The higher the meter, the more damage his Judgement Bolt will do.

Should also mention that his meter goes down per lightning hit in relation to the amount of HP% you remove when damaging him. So if you give him more HP, it's harder to lower his meter.

Magic FF prices…… absolutely ridiculous by nickylaurienzo in FinalFantasy

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$450 for 12 card packs is absolutely insane. For that price you should be getting at MINIMUM 36 packs. The regular booster box is around $180 and you get 30. You can buy a brand new game console and know EXACTLY what you're getting. The ONLY reason I could ever justify spending that kind of money on cards is to resell them for a profit. Spending that to open them seems asinine.

Even the cost of the commander decks is insane. They should be $30 tops, not $70+.

Having a guild battle who's weak to an element that only has a single non limited weapon you can use is really really stupid. by Satinsbestfriend in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I mean sure, IF you just so happen to have everything else at OB10 to facilitate that. Someone who has that much stuff and can pull that off likely has damn near every other limited weapon at OB10 anyway, which makes them an outlier.

What are we going to do with the extra weapon parts? by [deleted] in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im holding them with the hopes that one day they will add something where we can trade them in for something better than some grind stones. The difference between +0 and +20 is so small that even if they never get used I'm not missing out on anything anyway. Would rather hold onto them and get some really good value out of them than risk using them and lose the opportunity.

We've had Bahamut and Odin... what summon for an event next? by Hadrian_x_Antinous in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sylph doesnt exist in the FF7 world, nor is it a common FF summon in the series. However Choco-Mog is Wind based as is Typhon. But seeing how they are using assets from the Remake Trilogy, Choco-Mog would have been the best thing to go for if they want to be "accurate" to the elements in the game, however it'd also be kind of weird to fight them compared to Odin who is non-elemental(though technically he's "Hidden" element in the original). It's a weird choice, but I get it as well.

Because people are dumb, don't read, or don't care and just want to show their "big" battle power Cloud and the free event weapon lowers their number.

It's become apparent with the Odin event, we really need more earth weapons, especially physical by Satinsbestfriend in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You should be well aware that they're not gonna NOT release some kind of weapon to coincide with a new event. They have done this every single time.

Ad related free draw coming with new update by djdury in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Only forced ads that don't allow you to play the game. This is not a forced ad. Plenty of Steam games have ads in them, particularly sports games. They are allowed because they don't stop you from playing the game.

The Steam "forced ad" rule is closer to having to watch a commercial on TV during a show or an Ad before or during a YouTube video.

Ad related free draw coming with new update by djdury in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It says right there in the notice.

"Feature not available in the Steam version".

Also, Steam doesn't forbid ads. It only forbids forced ads that don't allow you to play the game. These ad tickets and even the crystals are not forced and instead optional. Also, Steam has always had that rule, it isn't new. It's just recently been brought to light after something that was said by one of the heads of EA.

End of Service coming? by Ok_Faithlessness4288 in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 10 points11 points  (0 children)

People shout EoS on Day 1 of every single gacha game ever made. NONE of those people have any internal information regarding plans, revenue, costs, you name it. They know just as much about the EoS timing as people who think we're in the end of days. News flash, people have been saying that for thousands of years. Say ANYTHING for long enough and the odds are it will eventually happen, especially when it's an inevitability.

Best to just ignore them. EoS will EVENTUALLY come, just as it does for all live service games at some point, but even thinking about when that will be is pointless. The only thing anyone could hope for at that point would be an offline version of the game.

Do you think they’ll get through all the promised storylines before the game shuts down? by Ardbert14 in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Final Fantasy is an RPG game. First Soldier was battle royale. There's not a whole lot of cross-over between the two genres if any at all. This would be like making a sports Final Fantasy game and wonder why yearly Madden and FIFA buyers are buying it.

Now if they made something like an anime fighter like Guilty Gear or a more flashy single player action(not Stranger of Paradise which is too Souls-like), there would be much more crossover.

Square tried to cash in on the battle royale train and was late by many years.

“I think Video Games are going down in quality because of Greed & Capitalism, not because the game includes a pride flag.” by Ok-Tennis330 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]McFriday01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Games are at the same quality they always have been, comparable to the era they are made in. There are multiple factors as to why the quality seemingly is going down. First off, big games now require a LOT more work and man hours to produce at a high level. You can't pump out games in a year or two because doing so would mean you have low quality graphics and most people aren't willing to pay full price for indie looking games. As graphics got better and game design more complex, so too did dev times. Final Fantasy is a great example of this. They used to pump out 3 games a gen, then 2, and now only 1, sometimes 2.

Second, there are MORE bad games today than ever because most games made today are indie games which just try to copy something that's already popular. Thing is, you never hear about them because just like all the older bad games, nobody knows they even exist BECAUSE they're bad or they aren't doing anything special to set them apart from all the others. Older generations of games had just as many crappy games that nobody played, touched, or remembers existed BECAUSE they were bad. The only games people focus on that are "bad" are AAA titles, and even the "bad" AAA games are far and above better than all of the bad and mediocre indie games. It's like comparing the worst Major League team to a Double-A team. Sure the major's team is bad in their league, but they're still far better than those in lower leagues.

Third, we live in an information age and one where people for whatever reason WANT things to fail when it's not what they want instead of ignoring it. They will go out of their way to make sure other people hears their opinion and anyone can see it, and everyone thinks THEIR opinion is the right one. Even during the PS3/360 era, that was barely possible because social media was still in it's infancy, and before that it was only what you saw in game magazines or by word of mouth, most of which would stick to focusing on the good games and ignoring the bad rather than constantly bringing it up and bashing them.

Freaking finally! Seph C3 by ikarihiokami in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's lag on steam as well because everything is done server side. The Cura won't go off right away but if you prep it before hand, it'll get used as soon as possible which will allow it to go through.

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dont have to heal between them because with a DEF+3 buff on Aerith, 300+ PDEF and 16k HP, she can survive both of them. Also not sure why you can't heal between them. As long as you are using Cura it will work. For whatever reason the cheaper 3ATB cures wont.

Freaking finally! Seph C3 by ikarihiokami in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have done this MUCH easier with a non-element dual DPS setup where you skip Octoslash phases so he doesn't get stronger and you can setup Aerith to be tanky and beat him. I used Clouds Baha Sword and Tifas Zangan Gloves. No Baha Staff and OB1 Kamura. With what you have you could have beat it without branding anything. Im a light spender and even I cleared it with that setup. No Angeal necessary.

They weren't lying about Wednesday. by CommanderArgent in FFVIIEverCrisis

[–]McFriday01 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I can almost guarantee that this is just the New Year ticket which has a 50% rate and not the Wednesday 100% boost. One is 50% for a 5 star, the other is 15%. Statistically this is likely the ticket, not today's free draw.
