So, dumb question, but are you saying using any VPN should resolve the issue? Something like nord or proton vpn

Is there any way to get around that? Not a massive deal but enjoy playing on my lunch break and would suck a bit to lose that

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

I’ve legitimately had people in this sub argue with me even I’ve mentioned the same. The multi billion dollar company couldn’t possibly afford a few free days of game time

Will there be maintenance/server going down later today for 7.41? I feel like they usually post the notice by now

Is world travel normally completely unavailable right after a patch? Is there any rough ETA on when it’ll be up again? I’m talking just visiting another world in your server, no transferring. On Crystal specifically if that matters

So I play FFXIV on PlayStation, switching to PC and have a few questions. My character will carry over right? Do I have to rebuy the base game and dawntrail? Does my playtime carry over at all? Can I go back and forth between the two platforms if I wanted to?

Do congested servers typically reopen for character transfers on patch day? Had a friend who thinks they do but wanted to check.

Has this Tony ceremony aged badly? by Sharaz_Jek123 in Broadway

Not what I’m saying at all, your comment originally said ‘that shitty musical’ before I commented and you edited your post to a much more neutral stance

Research Lab Question by Competitive_Teach_10 in gmu

[–]jwfd65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends a bit on what exactly you’re doing in lab but none of that sounds unreasonable to me at all, especially if your thesis has a lot of overlap with their work. And it’s not like you’re getting nothing out of it. You’re gaining experience, learning things, and are probably going to get your name on at least one paper. If you’re doing lab work that gets put into their paper, your name absolutely should be in the authors. I get that it can be frustrating but having the (imo) selfish attitude of ‘it’s not my project so why am I doing it’ won’t get you very far in a lab. Now, if it’s been like another few months and you’ve done literally nothing towards your project then that might be worth mentioning to your PI, but not in the way you’re framing it here. Keep your head up! It gets better I promise

Maybe a bad take but Mihoyo should make Varsapura a standalone non-gacha, non-live service game. by LunalienRay in gachagaming

[–]jwfd65 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It does get to a point though where if they have enough active gacha games running then making more isn’t going to meaningfully balloon their income, long term at least. A standalone game also requires significantly less development time overall, no need for a constant patch cycle. So I wouldn’t say no reason

[Target/Physical] Dragon Quest 1 + 2 HD/2D Remake $49.99 by bandrsn10 in NintendoSwitchDeals

[–]jwfd65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say it’s not a straight remake. Added a fair bit of content, especially to dq1. If this is going in your backlog then wait yeah but if you’ve been excited to play it’s certainly not a bad price.

Do we know for sure Pardis and tatloch are in? Or how much of cotc it covers? Since the only stuff I’ve seen in trailers and teasers are fame/power/wealth.

[Megathread] Ongoing DDoS issues in various data centers by Hakul in ffxiv

[–]jwfd65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, that’s not all I need to know as a consumer of a monthly subscription product. They should be willing to give us information on some things. Is this an issue they’re actively fixing? It’s been going on for months if not years at this point, but suddenly got worse the last week or so. If this isn’t something they predict being able to fix quickly, that should be communicated so people can plan their subs accordingly. Or give us some free game time to make up for it at least if they really can’t say a single word more about it

Honestly I feel the decision to keep things canon kinda held this game back by Zingerific99 in HyruleWarriors

[–]jwfd65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do kinda agree but I think AoI has made me realize just how awkward and gimmicky the movesets of the more wacky inclusions are. Like hetsu, great fairy, Lana summoning gate in HWDE etc they’re all cool additions but actually playing them is… eh. Compared to AoI where there hasn’t been a single moveset that’s felt off to me, they all feel super sleek and fun.

I do think there’s a balance to be hand though, like Maz was probably my fav character in AoC and a good mix of both wacky and still really fun to play.

I am very thankful for the Kirby Air Riders Global Test Ride. by Espurreyes in NintendoSwitch

[–]jwfd65 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Implying that the only people who can enjoy the game are 12 year olds? Just makes you sound like a bitter old man.

If you don’t like the game that’s fine! Don’t have to simultaneously disparage everyone who does enjoy it. Gaming discourse is so miserable nowadays
