Final Fantasy XIV - Kiwi Free Company

Haven't seen anything related to the update since it started but I should be elegible to be reinvited with the 90 day gone to return shit.
>tfw nobody to invite you back for ingame freebies
:lossmanjack:
Still kinda busy, is anything worth coming back to for this update? or I'll remain busy with IRL shit and hey, maybe the next MSQ will get me to bite.

Do you like crafting or gathering? Then that's about the only real major appeal til the next patch, which iirc is in like a week or so.

Seriously though, why do these people who record video's whore themselves out on Twitch like that? Peak fucking degeneracy right there.

It was during his recent subathon, he did it as a "dono reward", dressing up as a girl not once but TWICE (at one point he was dressed as his femlala, then later as a maid as seen in that pic). Literally letting people pay him to humiliate himself on camera. Feminine, as well as fatherless behavior.

So, this is a no pulled punches message straight to CBU3, from WoW regarding the Housing System. Hopefully they (CBU3) will do something about the abysmal dogshit housing system in the future, but I won't lose sleep over it so.

As a casualfag, I avoid harder content because I don't think the autistic dance memorization to be good (or fun) combat design. But I also really like shit like Eureka and Bozja, so I wanted to clear both BA and DRS for the sake of it.

I did BA a while back and it went well thanks to organized runs on Discord. And I figured it time to do the same for DRS. And I ran it, only to wipe at the final boss because the raid leader doing callouts fucked up and got half the raid killed. Passive aggressive is the name of the game, since everyone left silent as death and probably angry as fuck at having wasted nearly three hours on the effort with nothing to show for it.

tl;dr organized run of DRS ended in failure because raid lead couldn't count. Retard.

90% of the people who want one will never fucking do anything with their house anyway, and we already have apartments/FC rooms and islands for those players. I don't see the housing system as that egregiously bad.

They just need to get rid of the submarine gil farming and it'd be fine.

I would argue that the scarcity also increases the perceived value. There's also the need to keep subbed to not lose it. If everyone is given a house they'll basically only be used by a very few people once the honeymoon period is over.

The problem with the WoW housing system is that you have to play WoW

So basically just a Garrison, then.

Those already existed and no one really cared for them. Also "available to everyone" like Pet Battles and Archaeology? Being accessible isn't the same thing as being fun.

I would say that the biggest issue is going to be Blizzard's track record with expansion features. Are people going to be willing to engage in something that they can't be sure will receive support once the expansion is over.

Or the wrong kind of support. One of the cornerstones of FFXIV is that it's very hard to turn Real Dollars into currency or that currency into a big advantage, but WoW? Can get real expensive if you want specific things.

Ignoring the whole 'housing is for everyone' thing, which, yeah, fair on WoW....

In what is a long-standing tradition with XIV, the housing UI is pretty terrible and lacks a lot of common sense features you'd think it would have.

You either have to use a third party plugin or fuck around with in-game glitches to do simple things.

From what I've seen of WoW's housing system, assuming they are able to deliver, it is going to be way more robust than XIV's. The people who care about this shit should be envious.

This is such an overblown complaint, imo. The effort/startup timesink in getting them up and running is pretty time consuming in terms of obtaining mats, crafting mats, building subs, exploring and unlocking all the zones, etc.

The larger issue are people who, for lack of a better term, are part of consortiums who buy up multiple properties. Limit FC house ownership to 1 per SE account (not game account -- SE account) and it'll cut down on a lot.

I have 2 buddies who have like 6 houses on Dynamis and I believe Cactaur has someone who has bought up like an entire district. Those are the bigger issues when it comes to housing, as well as everyone wanting Large plots and not small/medium.

That shit happens sometimes even with the leaders who are super good at it. I dunno who you ran it with/under but if you're on NA, NaCl does runs pretty regularly and is super good at calling, although he is super thorough with everything.

It was part of the weekend long runs organized by the Discord server "Field Op Enjoyers". I don't recall who was doing the callouts, but fucking up the Queen's chess mech was just the latest fuck up that run. He had to be corrected on at least three other call outs (that I can remember). I played like shit myself because I wasn't used to 47 other bodies cluttering my field of view and making it considerably harder to see the mechs play out.

I may give it another shot one day, but it was such a shitty experience that I'll avoid it for the time being. With the new field op coming, I'll just get my fix there.

If you're NA, I recommend the Lego Steppers discord. The people on there tend to know their shit.

I had to go digging cos I wasn't on that server anymore.

I missed my chance to do the big DRS carry-thon. Hopefully next time I’ll be less busy.
