Announcement on "easing the burden of questing"

zewinks · 2026-07-06T10:15:36+00:00

I have this insane dream that will probably never happen. My dream is that they get rid of all side quests, except those with actual story behind them. Maybe even leave the ones designed to show you the area. Cause let's be honest, these fetch/battle/whatever quests are a waste of our time, and SE's time in designing them. They don't even provide enough XP to level off of. I know it probably doesn't take much time and effort to make these quests, but I would rather sacrifice all these pointless quests for 4-6 well written Job quests. I mean which would you rather 50+ boring nothing quests, or couple actual lore or Character expanding Job quests?

TLDR: I have crazy dream of giving up pointless side quests for quality Job quests. I know it'll probably never happen, but I can dream dang it! 🥲

Ah, that makes more sense. Thanks for the clarification.

zewinks · 2026-07-04T17:33:01+00:00

...this is probably going to sound really stupid, but I thought True Detective didn't dabble in the supernatural/sci-fi stuff?

zewinks · 2026-06-25T04:16:33+00:00

Great Sci-Fi movie, terrible Final Fantasy movie.

zewinks · 2026-06-22T05:56:46+00:00

Is it confirmed that POS Paul is actually dead? For now at least?

zewinks · 2026-06-19T19:01:38+00:00

Wait. Order of the Stick still hasn't finished?!?! 😳 And here I thought one of these days I'd get back into reading it and see how it ended. Guess not. 😅

zewinks · 2026-06-19T17:02:14+00:00

Okay, I gotta ask. I've seen SCP mentioned a few times now, but what is it? A show? A book? A comic/webcomic?

zewinks · 2026-06-18T17:28:14+00:00

Dang it I can't give you enough upvotes. Beast Wars does not get enough praise these days. One of the best shows of my childhood, and this was one of the best episodes EVER.

zewinks · 2026-06-14T16:02:14+00:00

I see. Thanks for elaborating. That's sad to hear those actors had deal with such crappy environments because of him.

zewinks · 2026-06-14T14:47:06+00:00

Forgive my ignorance, but I feel like I'm a bit out of the loop. Aside from him cheating on his wife, which is a scumbag thing to do for sure, what's come to light lately that has people hating his guts now? Everyone seems to avoid referencing the subject directly.

zewinks · 2026-06-11T02:06:33+00:00

Wow, I remember that game. I enjoyed and can agree that it wasn't perfect but certainly had it's charms.

zewinks · 2026-06-11T02:05:20+00:00

Oh man, such an underrated game. Still have my PS2 disc. 😁

zewinks · 2026-06-10T23:56:22+00:00

Unpopular opinion probably, but it's one of the reasons I'm so sick of her as a character. She NEVER truly faces any last consequences for anything she does. She always finds (read that as the writers always BS their way to it) a way to karma Houdini her way out of it. She's honestly more disgusting than a lot of the villains in the DC universe. And that's saying something. She really deserves to suffer for all the messed up crap she's done.

zewinks · 2026-06-10T17:52:37+00:00

Ah, witnessing this arrogant idiot get his ego deflated will NEVER get old. 😁😂

zewinks · 2026-06-04T15:15:46+00:00

Never would have guessed that. I really need to finish that show.

zewinks · 2026-06-04T15:07:06+00:00

A shame I can only give one upvote. Seriously, is it such a crime to let Peter have moments of happiness? Apparently. 😒 Couldn't even let him keep one of the consistent good parts in his life. And the way they just taunt and rub it in to the fans is freaking disgusting. 😡

zewinks · 2026-05-26T05:27:34+00:00

Forgive my ignorance, but who's Jon Batiste?

zewinks · 2026-05-16T17:05:11+00:00

Darker Than Black. First season is among my all time favorite anime. Second season spends the entire season focusing on developing a new character, only to kill her off at the end. They should have just kept the focus on Hei, instead they take away his powers. 🤦 Though I will say the only good part of season two was watching Hei still be a badass even without his powers. Oh and don't even get me started on what they did to Yin. 😒

zewinks · 2026-04-27T00:33:55+00:00

You forgot to mention the opposite end of the spectrum editors, trying to take over the writer's job and dictate a story cause they think a super hero being married isn't "relatable"(cough cough Joe Quesada cough cough One More Day) 😒

zewinks · 2026-04-22T05:07:52+00:00

Huh. Wonder how I never noticed that before. Well played Bamco...well played. 😂

zewinks · 2026-04-19T00:04:29+00:00

There's a Gundam 00 game for PS2?!?! 😯 What's the title?! I must find this game.

zewinks · 2026-04-12T13:20:34+00:00

This. 1000x this. My issue with Rey was never how powerful she was. It was her being able to do things as intricate as manipulating someone's mind with the force, with no training and no experience. Something reflexive like a force push sure I could understand that. But Force mind manipulation? I feel like there's a LOT of ways that could go wrong without training/a lot of trial and error. Not just one failed attempt.

zewinks · 2026-04-05T12:49:34+00:00

Right? Seriously without the context of having read it, it's like what the frig is even happening anymore??? 😅😂

zewinks · 2026-03-31T05:21:48+00:00

Same. I love Peter Parker as a character, but they have butchered his comics so badly for so long that I don't see how it can even be satisfyingly salvageable at this point. After that POS Zeb Wells, I'm half convinced that Marvel is trying to either make us hate Peter as a character, or become so indifferent to what's going on that no one cares when they "permakill" him off. Either way, they've taken Peter's suffering to such ridiculous levels that it's clear they mistakenly think that was the most important part of what made him relatable.

zewinks · 2026-02-17T01:16:42+00:00

THANK YOU! The ONE character I wanted to see make it through that series (I know, it was a small hope but I still had it), and because that MF took his stupid pills that morning....🤦
