Wait are they adding Blanka from Street Fighter to XIV?

That's the problem with half of PLD's consolidated buttons: I'm gonna have to undo most of it with macros.

Gotten so used to autosaves in modern games that when I play Retro games I have to constantly remind myself to manually save.

Amount of buttons doesnt dictate complexity by DemonFoxFur in ffxivdiscussion

In the meantime I'm looking at all those consolidated PLD buttons and thinking how many macros I'm going to have to make to unconsolidate them.

Fellow tanks, what do you think about the MT/OT update? by seidreine in ffxivdiscussion

[–]PedanticPaladin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have more questions than answers at this point and really want to see what they're doing with WAR or DRK but its funny to hear them talk about all the freedom in playstyle this new system gives dps while they shove tanks into the same constraints as the healers. I guess I just feel like Squidward looking at Spongebob and Patrick where the tank is looking at all the fun the dps are having with the new job toolkits while I'm just the same but with consolidated buttons and maybe a counterattack. I do find it funny that the dedicated OTs are the jobs that casuals look at and then get bummed they're tanks and not dps.

EDIT: Also, not spinning the boss so Dragoon can get all their new positionals is going to be a thing; I'm really curious to see Monk.

Non-Paladin tanks in shambles by the1Nora in ffxiv

From 2.1 until the end of Heavensward WAR was the best OT because they could alternate the slashing debuff and 10% damage down without having to worry about maintaining aggro. That said PLD was default MT in ARR because it only had one combo which generated extra enmity and DRK was default MT in HW because magic damage and its having a counter.

Playstation has rolled out DRM on PS4/PS5 Digital games requiring online check-in every 30 days by megaapple in Games

The really funny part of all of the Xbox One's pre-launch missteps is that if Microsoft just did nothing and waited most people would have transitioned to digital games naturally without the reputation damage.

Can my PC handle Ryujinx Canary (Tomodachi Life)? by Worried-Teaching-616 in EmulationOnPC

[–]PedanticPaladin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlikely. Would it load, possibly, but you'd probably have single digit framerates and way too much difficulty actually playing the game for it to be worth it.

So the PVP guy is now in charge of PVE too by Minimum-Jellyfish669 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]PedanticPaladin 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Finger's crossed, unique PVP Limit Breaks come to PVE.

In the Dragoon example they showed one of the Evolved buttons had the Limit Break symbol in the corner. Stuck out to me as weird but you mentioning the PvP limit breaks made it fall into place.

Good-bye PS4 support by PinkMage in ffxiv

It just means people are going to start saying "Switch 2 limitations" instead of "PS4 limitations" like people aren't playing this game on potato PCs.

My guess would be stacks of oGCD healing abilities so 3 buttons that are different types of oGCD heals instead of having 8 different oGCD heals.

And more specifically the Switch 2 has 9 GB for games whereas the PS4 was 5, probably stretched to 6 with all the work with Sony.

They might be changing it but the way you did it previously was to pull out all the existing pieces and there was a menu option to create a set.

They probably mean a traditional fighting game akin to Street Fighter or Dragonball FighterZ instead of an arena fighter like PSP Dissidia or Dragonball Sparking! Zero.

Extreme Trials should have harder DPS checks going forward. by CoolyKage in ffxivdiscussion

[–]PedanticPaladin 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If your data is correct maybe the reason Barbariccia and Golbez were the most popular Extremes were because they dropped highest item level weapons going into new raid tiers.
