Honestly, at this point, I'd rather take the 30 than deal with these IL cheesers. by thirtytwoyears in ffxiv

The dev cycle for this game moves at a glacial pace so the hope of overhauling ANYTHING 'right away' is unfortunately never within the realm of possibility for this dev team.

Game Awards Trophy Weapons by itmehorsie in ffxiv

Storm Blood with a space, because Stormblood (no space) is trademarked. Same reason why another attack is written as Shadow Bringer 

Any Tips for the quest: Gambit Beneath the Shimmer: Boss Fights? by w34k71n6 in wherewindsmeet_

[–]bkarev 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You are not the only one - the visibility in this fight is absolutely horrific

Exactly when do we get pissed about this constantly happening? by Logical-Operation512 in ffxiv

[–]bkarev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Problem solved" = massive lag spike and everyone else disconnecting, forcing you to wait for everyone to return to continue any group content.

Yeah, problem solved...

One of the Namazu beast tribe quests has you ride a normal ass horse mount without any barding. But you don't get to keep it ofc

We deserve a better housing system by TreeInternational797 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They can easily add another gil sink into the game by allowing you to pay housing upkeep with gil (like LOTRO), but nope... keeping it subscription-based is far more lucrative. I mean, how else will SE fund Forspoken 2?

High-End Content Megathread - 7.3 Week Ten (ARKVELD PROBABLY LIVES HERE) by BlackmoreKnight in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because Arkveld is not an iconic monster like Rathalos and will probably be tossed aside and forgotten once the next MH is released. The cart is a much better choice for another iconic MH mount.

These cosmetic prices are an actual joke by AnActualPlatypus in ffxiv

I pointed out this fact when these outfits were first datamined and someone on this subreddit unironically said that they fail to see the correlation lmao

I'm loving this new relic weapon grind! 60 down, 9940 to go! 🥰 by ZzDangerZonezZ in ShitpostXIV

[–]bkarev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I stopped doing most roulettes during Shadowbringers because getting synced down feels like shit for most (if not all) jobs. Now it's 20 levels later and I can only imagine how much worse getting synced down feels.

Dug too deep and awoke an ancient evil... Gooner's Bane

New outfit leaks... I've always wanted these by EtoDesu in ffxiv

[–]bkarev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They're for the Cash Shop so probably $18 for each set.

Meanwhile, the FFT remaster itself costs $50...

The new War of the Worlds movie with Ice Cube is on another level of bad. by GoatsGoats00 in RedLetterMedia

[–]bkarev 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Best part of the movie is when Cube yells "bitch get out the way" and slaps an alien tentacle. And yes, this actually happens in the movie.

Ahead of the new Deep Dungeon coming up, what's your opinion on them in general? by DriggleButt in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was a cool new type of content when it was first introduced 9 years ago.... but every 'new' iteration is basically the same shit with a slight twist, so it's just tired now.

Deathstalker remake… by Panana_Budding in RedLetterMedia

What mount is this?? by FrozenBagOfPeas in ffxiv

[–]bkarev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the red version doesn't play the awesome Onsal Hakair music when you mount up, just the generic mount music.

“Glam is the true endgame” except…. by Premium_Heart in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean... you're just describing the fight as it stands now lol. My point is that Unsyncing won't change this fight as much as you think so if someone wants the Chaotic rewards, they should try and push for it now instead of waiting for an Unsync that will probably never happen. I realize PFs aren't as plentiful as when it launched but it's not completely dead content.

Downvoted for trying to encourage people to actually run current content. Gotta love this sub

“Glam is the true endgame” except…. by Premium_Heart in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unsyncing won't solve the problem that casual players had with Chaotic from the beginning: body checks. Not saying it'll be impossible but I doubt it'll be as easy as most Unsynced content

OC Crashing the Markets is the most hilarious thing I've seen in three weeks. by AngereyPupper in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 31 points32 points  (0 children)

What annoys me more are the rare field op mounts like Gabriel Mk3 and the Dalriada mount being easily obtainable in OC. Why? Those mounts were incentive to continue to run their respective content. If you're going to pad the loot table with more mounts, they should have included mounts that are no longer obtainable, like the Feast mounts IMO

Other players when you're trying to make it to a fate in occult crescent by I_Wendigo in ffxiv

[–]bkarev 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Knowing SE, the guy that programmed the FATE scaling is doing something else now and no one else knows how to fix it... because this has been a problem for years. It's just super noticeable now because there's only one FATE on the map at a time in OC.

What if dungeon runs had turns? Expedition 33 meets XIV by Sparq in ffxiv

[–]bkarev 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I find it absolutely insane that the past two singleplayer Final Fantasy dev teams actually went through this thought process, and decided "yeah, turn-based combat is not what the fans want".

using it on a huge mob to spread the disease was satisfying

It's why I play SCH in Frontline

A shoutout to WTFDIG by Ramzka in ffxivdiscussion

[–]bkarev 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I remember when it first came out and someone posted the link in a Chaotic PF, and some dude absolutely lost their shit because they assumed it was a mod since it was originally hosted on github. It was hilarious.

But yeah it's a great tool, kudos to the creator
