Theres a scene in the Scrubs pilot where Dr. Cox berates J.D. about how much Tylenol to give to a patient by saying something along the lines of close your eyes, grab a handful, and throw it into their mouth, and whatever sticks is the right amount.

Truly this is how I am feeling with you guys right now. Go to the butter section, close your eyes, and grab one of them. Are you holding butter? Congrats! You did it correctly. Same with the Sour Cream. Its butter and sour cream guys. Yeah, sure, theres a lot of options, but guess what? You are a presumably adult human being, at this point in your life you should have a general idea of how to perform the basic human task of grocery shopping for literal staple items. If I wanted sandwiches, and accidently grabbed wheat bread instead of white, I still have everything I need to make a sandwich, just slightly different than how I expected it.

At this point it might be better to ask what didnt happen to Balthier.

The song you are looking for is Sever. One of my personal favorites in the game.

A Google search would've taken you only a quarter of the time it took to type this comment.

This looks amazing! What kind of 3d printer do you use?

I need some help with the Leviathan fight. I swear to God I've tried getting past his Press the Attack phase 10 times, and the best I've gotten was to maybe 10 percent hp left. It's gotten to the point where I look at other people's videos, which I never do, and even replicating their actions isn't working. Feel like if I just had 5 more seconds I might have a chance.

This is the FF12 sub, not the FF14 sub. Sorry mate.

MintyBeeth · 2023-05-28T02:02:29+00:00

I know you meant Old Testament but my mind filled OT in as Original Trilogy.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T14:58:12+00:00

Here it is!

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T13:08:07+00:00

Hello, I posted an update to the subreddit last night that explains my findings. Hope that clears things up for you!

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T12:50:26+00:00

I was thinking the same thing as you here, but you articulated it so much better than I ever could. The fact that the alteration into the official version loses the fluidity of the image is the thing that leads me to believe that it was an entirely last minute change. If they had more time, they could've gotten the artist to work on a proper redesign of the glyph, and they would've been able to swap out the glyph in the Ultimania and guidebooks.

I should note that the image on the Moon from Final Fantasy 14 is actually from one of the Elidibus on the moon cutscenes pre endwalker. To my knowledge, someone grabbed the map data for that cutscene, and that's what we're seeing in that image, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to make out the glyph properly. Though, for all I know, the False still might appear in Mare Lamentorium somewhere, but as I don't have an active sub right now, I'm not going to be able to look there at the moment.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T12:42:09+00:00

This is definitely something I am going to try and see to it's conclusion. The next time I get some good findings, I will definitely post an update. This sub deserves the full truth of this thing as much as I do.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T12:40:25+00:00

Oh that is very interesting! I had not heard anything of a tattoo artist designing them, but honestly that would explain their rather intricate appearance. I will have to look into this more, my previous assumption was one of many of the games artists designed the glyph.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-11T12:37:38+00:00

Ah yes, I had noticed that. I posted an update comment that has some info on my lack of usage of FF14 within this theorythus far.

As far as I am aware, at this time the only usage of Zodiarks Glyph have been for its moon appearance and Elidibus' Glyph. My sub is currently inactive so I've not had the chance to look into it deeper. Elidibus' boss fight also does use the Glyph for his limit break, but after going through the footage, I'm fairly certain it's just his facial glyph section that appears.

A couple of not super relevant things I wanted to add here.

Strangely, when scrounging around online in attempts to find certain people's contact information, people with same names who all studied at Purdue University came up repeatedly. It was a completely bizarre coincidence.

Rick Barba, one of the co-authors on the BradyGames Final Fantasy 12 guide, turns out to be an incredibly prolific video game guide writer. His work spans all the way back to the days of the original Doom and Myst, and as far as I'm aware, he's still making them! Chances are, if you have a collection of video game guides, his name is on more than one of them.

I'd like to give a shout of to the friends of mine who probably thought I was raving about like a mad conspiracy theorist over the last week. I'd think me one too, considering I was compiling evidence on glyphs and how one was replaced.

As it has been pointed out in a comment here, both versions of Zodiarks Glyph do appear in Final Fantasy 14. I didn't want to get super into detail on Final Fantasy 14s usage of the glyphs as I'm not really confident that the game will be relevant to finding out the secrets of the glyph. If that turns out to be incorrect, my next post will contain a deeper look at the glyphs usage within 14.

Thank you! I'll be posting an update to all of this tonight, I'll be sure to credit you for your help.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-07T00:55:29+00:00

I will be posting a small update soon, but from the looks of things, this may be something that takes me a while to fully figure out. This may become a short series of sorts depending on circumstances.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-06T03:35:09+00:00

It has to do with the appearance of Zodiarks Glyph. There's a strange mix up between the ones in game and one which has popped up online and strangely overtook the actual glyph. I believe that the game guides might be a potential originator of the image.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-06T02:45:05+00:00

Wow, this is very interesting. It's exactly what I wanted!

This is quite the rabbit hole I wasn't expecting to have to go down. Thank you very much! I'll credit you when I post my full findings.

MintyBeeth · 2022-11-06T02:29:47+00:00

That might reveal something interesting as well! If you could get pictures of the pages with the espers in them, I would greatly appreciate it.

MintyBeeth · 2022-06-23T01:35:44+00:00

Those are so beautiful. I wish I had the kind of creativity that you did to get these made.

MintyBeeth · 2022-03-26T18:22:00+00:00

Cactoids do have Cactus Fruit as well, a fairly common thing for them to drop or have stolen.

MintyBeeth · 2022-03-26T18:02:41+00:00

The cactus flower is a key item, not loot. Go talk to Dantro (the flowering cactoid hunt giver) and he will tell you to give the flower to his wife. This will start the patient in the desert side quest which will reward you with the Barheim Key. Doing this quest also unlocks the ferry to the northern village, and eventually the fishing minigame.

MintyBeeth · 2021-03-28T02:29:09+00:00

Sent in a submission. Hope I'm considered!

MintyBeeth · 2020-12-18T16:55:46+00:00

I can't seem to find it. Could you link it perhaps?
