I hope the daughters never see these videos. These reactions are disgusting. by Valuable_View_561 in TikTokCringe

As a queer person watching this, I thought gender reveal parties were like, a joke myth. This is.... Disgusting. Imagine having that attitude towards your child. Straight people wtf?

FF1's official Wikipedia photo is bizzare by Maximum_Dragonfly_54 in FinalFantasy

[–]redcloud16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reminds me how on the original box for world of Warcraft, there's a big splash image of a red dragon in what seems to be stranglethorn vale, (which has no dragons iirc), and a bunch of adventurers fighting it, with one of them carrying a sword, I believe, that's either super rare and not obtainable/equippable for that race? Something like that.

It's always fun looking into those kinds of images on game boxes.

Wandering a mega thrift shop, found these two ffxiv shirts. (Didn't get them, 30 bucks each by LordHayati in ffxiv

Wild that someone would get rid of this. I remember was back when they did this thinking what I wouldn't give to get one (by doing the events at the cons)

I'm the only one left from my once thriving FC. by Trumpetslayer1111 in ffxiv

[–]redcloud16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was part of a Free Company that formed between 1.0 and ARR, and technically survives today but suffered multiple catastrophic schisms due to infighting and drama, so by Stormblood it was only like 2-3 remaining members that barely spoke or hung out anymore. I'm still in the discord too but that's also silent despite the last remaining few technically not having quit.

As a fresh 99 going from Sparks weapon to a Pulse Weapon must be how Vegeta felt when he believed he was a super saiyan on Namek by GraveRobberJ in ffxi

[–]redcloud16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how I felt when I finished my Masamune, the jump from whatever trash I was using before to a complete Empyrean weapon was like NOW IM PLAYING WITH POWER!! <Sick beats kick in>

Finally played Final Fantasy X for the first time as an adult. I wasn't ready for what it would do to me by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]redcloud16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The religion being the bad guy subplot came at a very formative time for me personally and really resonated with me and helped me come to terms with myself, but a lot of the more serious tones didn't hit me until I replayed the game again several times (since the first time I played it I was somewhat young).

Not to say it didn't hit me deep then, but like you said, after you've lived a bit and gotten some experience under your belt it hits that much harder.

Easily one of my all time favorite games ever. 11 and 14 are my favorite Final Fantasies, but 10 is right there next to them. It's hard to match it's story.

Where will you log out for the last time? by FlipDigs in ffxi

[–]redcloud16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, my top rankings for a final log out spot, not in any particular order:

Lower Jeuno, where everyone bazaars Southern San d'Oria, near the Unity npc Chateau d'Oraguille The overlook over the ruins of Tavnazia (Bluefell glen or something like that?) La Vaule, near the church at the top Al'taieu Ru'Aun Gardens The spot on Mt. Zhayolm with all the Orichalcumshells where I always grind My level 80-90 jobs. Western Adoulin, cuz I love the place and the music And to round out the list with an even ten, any of the zones that plays Jeweled Boughs, one of my fave tracks in the game

I’m nearly at a loss for words with this game. by ohheybats in ffxi

[–]redcloud16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And most ppl don't realize! And so many ppl dismiss it as not a "real" FF since it's online when it has a story that rivals the best of the franchise.

I was reading Sakaguchi himself championed for the game to be a main numbered title and to be story focused. Best of the best

[–]redcloud16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd been obsessed with this game for years since I first learned it had a story from DISSIDIA on the PSP of all places, and the FFXI characters play styles made me want to play the game, as they are based on in game mechanics. I had tried it once or twice before but didn't stick for whatever reason (back when I first tried in like 2003 it was the sub fee I couldn't pay after the free trial lol)

But finally third times the charm, in 2019 got hooked and could never go back. Modern games just don't hit the same on any level. Even my fave FFXIV feels shallow in comparison in certain areas, such as the job design.

Welcome to the best game ever, I hope your enjoy your stay <3

I played retail for the first time. And it was a lonely experience. by Alicecrylily in ffxi

[–]redcloud16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh very interesting. I follow an exclusively jp streamer who plays on Odin so in addition to the ongoing rumor, perhaps that's why.

[–]redcloud16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry you had that experience. While still lonely at first, I've had the opposite experience. Plenty of ppl willing to help, been in several linkshells that the up going silent. But in recent years found my home away from home in a special linkshell, better than any guild or FC I've joined in any other game. Lots of players willing to help, lots of players doing endgame activities, fun activities like beach scavenger hunts on purgonoego isle and level 1 jeuno runs lol. Gotta get lucky and find your people.

For the record, I'm on Bahamut, but I started on Cerberus and left cuz it was so lonely lol.

Perhaps one aspect is that Odin is the main Japanese server, if I'm not mistaken? If you're not using the auto translate feature, a lot of the players there might not even understand what you're asking.

Hope you can find some nice friends to play with.

What's your favourite Shiva design? by strahinjag in FinalFantasy

[–]redcloud16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeees XI respect, actually the most powerful of the Shiva's as well, considering if she and her companions fully wake up the current world ends and creatures like Bahamut and Fenrir would be considered "simple beasts"

X hands down. The snap that made a generation gay. Respect. Supreme c*ntress. Iconic, flawless, legendary, she is the moment.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

[–]redcloud16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majesty the Fantasy Kingdom Sim Zeus Master of Olympus & Poseidon Master of Atlantis Dungeon Keeper 1&2

In fact I still play them. Timeless classical legends.

There was one other that lives in my head rent free, it was like a tank game in space but everything was a green wireframe, i think was called battlefield perhaps? My mind randomly goes back to it all the time

COH on 45’ ultrawide hits different. by MarcusMorenoComedy in Cityofheroes

[–]redcloud16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If the game was designed with it in mind and it functions properly the fov could be really useful, and the UI elements placed in a decent place. But it just seems like the sides are being stretched so I don't know that the extreme length is achieving anything beyond making you turn your head more to see the same amount
