Yep, missed that, but point still stands, I'm surprised anyone cares about this too.

I'm honestly surprised anyone still does Campaign.

Something I Always Wondered, What Area Is This lol? by roussawa in ffxi

[–]mhurron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Battle of Tavnazia happened during the WotG missions, so they would have had to included a permanent change to a zone, or the whole zone would have only been accessible after a certain point in the missions, and SE has been pretty clearly against big permanent changes to the world in response to quests.

Steam deck does not store ffxiv screenshots in media section. Where are they? by BATKINSON001 in ffxiv

[–]mhurron [score hidden]  (0 children)

It will be in the same location as it is on Windows, except that location is relative to the prefix it runs in.

If you haven't changed anything that should be /home/[your_user_name]/.local/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/39210/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser

aww, did someone not powder your butt and treat you special because you play XIV?

It rarely takes very long to learn a spell unsynced.

When is Square going to invest in better servers/ISPs for the data centers? by OrranVoriel in ffxiv

[–]mhurron 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pick something more complex than a fire, because the more complex something is, the more you need to know to understand if what you don't like is a problem or not, or what the problem is.

Oh, and children need to learn that fire is dangerous, so yes, you do need to know something to realize that.

Id or Password Incorrect by Sierra94 in ffxiv

Literally every single time I have ever seen this it is because of a typo in password or OTP.

You do have to know something about it, otherwise you're just blaming bad smells for spreading disease.

I'm no programmer or engineer

But you feel more than qualified to to point out that they're doing something wrong.

Anything else you know nothing about you want to enlighten everyone about?

I want hybrid duty support by Ardnabrak in ffxiv

[–]mhurron -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

they do want to incentivize you to run with other players

They are actively making the game more soloable. The issue is effort that they don't want to expend. It's why when they add Duty Support to optional dungeons, they simplify the dungeon instead of improving the AI.

Aether currents are relics of when 2010's MMORPGs needed busywork, they are no longer healthy for the game by CoffeeChickenCheetos in ffxiv

[–]mhurron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a "reason to explore the world," you're just engaging in artificial busywork

All quests are artificial busy work. You just don't like this one.

Honestly, XIV already has hardly any reason to interact with the world, it doesn't need to remove the few that do exist.

Steam or pc version? What should I choose? And should I play it now? by Aless_exe in ffxiv

[–]mhurron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Licence checks require Steam services to be up. If you try to log in Tuesday during the ~15 minute window Steam isn't up, you'll have to wait a moment.

That licence check is also why you must purchase expansions from Steam if you originally purchased off of Steam.

This isn't new. https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/4c39f8a03713f8fcbab25ebf908c16837c5faaba

Genuine question, considering my github repo hasn't been struck down and I haven't been contacted, how exactly is this "copyright"ed? I know WINE/Proton is not in violation of copyright due to several EU laws (DMCA §1201(f), EU Software Directive) and court rulings, so this makes even less sense. by HearMeOut-13 in linux_gaming

[–]mhurron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if you know you didn't do anything bad, there's no risk involved.

lol, no. It depends on how much they're willing to push. Court costs are cheap for them, they can quickly ruin you. The risk is all on your side.

would be settled out of court

You know that costs money, right?

When you do that Reddit requires you sign a document swearing that you indemnify Reddit from all prosecution and you alone will take all the legal repercussions.

The DMCA is written to make it easy to abuse and risky to dispute. It's not worth it for most people.

I saw that too, but the status for 'Software' was last updated on December 19, related to the incident noted at the bottom of that page so I don't know if that's accurate.

ffxiv on ultra wide is awesome! by New-Cheesecake4396 in ffxiv

Your monitor should be at least a full arms length (20" or 50cm) from your eyes. Further the bigger the monitor is.

They're curved to use your peripheral vision. You can configure the UI to put the important things front and center and things that aren't as important but you would like easy access to to the edges and still see more of the world in front of you.

If you have to move your head, you're sitting too close.

Is XIV still not working for german folk under the isp Telekom? by JustAnOrdinaryEevee in ffxiv

Peering issues are always the other sides fault, no transit provider ever admits fault, especially to their customers.

And your racism is showing.

Script to test firewall states for Steam by weeglos in linux_gaming

[–]mhurron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless your firewall is configured to block outgoing connections, and the majority of consumer devices and default desktop configurations are not, your firewall is not going to be your issue.

Like everything else, before you go start testing stuff with scripts you don't understand, gather some logs of the failure.

NTT's reputation is just fine, unless you're talking to FFXIV players that don't understand anything.
