Nice! I'm like 20 runs for my armored tiger. I'll get it this coming week for sure! TEA is going very slow. Honestly, I'm ready to move on from it to the next savage tier. At the very least I have fun progging savage. TEA got old ages ago.

The memory use for 100 and 99 is the same.
110 0011 is 99.
110 0100 is 100. Same amount of memory.
Max memory limit to hold 9999 would also hold 16, 383

I understand this, but as adjl said

adjl posted...
Visually, however, you have to code in a display with additional digits. If one of those digits is almost never going to be used, it's not worth the effort and visual clutter, so you might as well stick with one less than the even multiple of ten. Even if you get into using scientific notation, you're still going to want to cap the number of digits on the exponent so the number will fit in the display you design.

Again, we're talking early 1980s home computer technology here. And really the idea behind FF was a way to play what is essentially D&D on that technology, which was no small feat for the time, and with very limited memory, with large detailed sprites. Every. Byte. Counts.

So from what I gather, the reason this thing is so serious, is because it doesn't kill quickly, and takes a while for symptoms to manifest. You can be infected for days and not know it, and in that time you're spreading the virus to everyone around. Then when you do exhibit symptoms, your lungs fill up with fluid and you need to be put on a respirator, and obviously we don't have 7 billion respirators lying around.

Also, this is China we're talking about, they are definitely not reporting accurate numbers. Plus lunar new year just happened. There's probably thousands of more infected we don't know about yet.

Lots of times they only code in two spots for the digits

This. Those old Final Fantasy games were made for the Famicom in the mid to late 80s. And they were big games for the time too. They had to make every byte count, so they made the decisions to only let the character level go up to 99 and to cap the health and damage at 999 and later 9999.

Been doing about 2 levels a day, though I'll probably play through it again after I'm done and go faster. Mostly just been hunting all the secrets and farming upgrades and whatnot. So I noticed the start of the Vega level actually looks kinda terrible. Kinda seems like that part of the game didn't get as much attention as other parts of the game. But that's okay because the 2 hell levels right before it are fuckin awesome.

That's pretty much every MMO, I know a couple guys that only ever play females when given the choice, it's pretty creepy.

idk I don't think it's weird. And like I said, I know women that play male characters.

Also kinda sorta putting this gameon the back burner until next raid tier. Focusing on other games like replaying DOOM 2016, and I might as well play some of the other Doom and Quake games whilst I'm at it. But, I'm still doing my dailies and all that, need those mounts.

Gonna leave this here cus this was driving me mad and others might not know. And it had been a couple years since I had last played it and didn't know about this.

If you're going to replay Doom 2016 in anticipation for Eternal, go into the mouse and keyboard settings and turn off Razer Chroma. Boosted my fps by like 100, not even joking. I thought my GPU was dying or something, the game was running like ass. Getting like 50 fps at best, and it was stuttering and hitching like mad.

Lali-ho, Adventurers! Whether you're a seasoned Warrior of Light and Darkness, or a potato sprout, this is the place to discuss all things FFXIV! Want to discuss the latest and greatest raid? We got you covered! Or you're looking for the perfect fish to bring your aquarium together? Ask away! Oh you want to be a master crafter, but you don't know your touches from your syntheses? Don't worry, we're here to help!

What is Final Fantasy XIV? It's an MMORPG in the long and storied Final Fantasy series!

Do I need to play any of the previous FFs? Nope! Aside from some references and homages, FFXIV is a standalone game and story in its own world called Eorzea!

What can I do in Eorzea? Lots of things! You can hunt monsters, mine ores and minerals, or harvest plants, you can fish, race chocobos, play card games, gamble your life away in the casino, raid, delve dungeons for loot and gold. The list goes on!

Sounds fun! What's the catch? Yes, it's true, FFXIV is a paid subscription game. $12.99 a month minimum.

I don't know... is there a free trial? Absolutely! https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/ You can play all 2.0 A Realm Reborn classes up to level 35, no time limit!

You said something about raiding and fighting monsters? FFXIV follows the "trinity" school of design for MMOs. There are broadly three roles, Tank, Damage(DPS) and Healer. And under these there are currently 17 Job classes to play as. There's something here for just about anyone! https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/jobguide/battle/ There's also over a hundred dungeons and raids in the game, it's teeming with content!

This game sounds pretty big. Are there resources? Sure, tons of them!
For general info on items and dungeons and quests try Gamer Escape https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Main_Page
Or perhaps you prefer the wiki format, try Console Gamers Wiki, it has much of the same info! https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/FF14_Wiki
Or maybe you're looking to raid or optimize your performance. Try The Balance! https://thebalanceffxiv.com/
Or maybe fishing is more your thing? https://ff14angler.com/ has all the information you'd ever want, and more!
What's that, you'd rather craft or gather? http://garlandtools.org/
Oh you want game news and character data? https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/
You want to find out how you're doing in battle? Try FFLogs! https://www.fflogs.com/ (But don't tell squenix!)

And I got more where those came from, just ask!

I hear everything is locked behind the story? Yes, absolutely everything in this game requires you to follow the story, or MSQ. And over the years the MSQ has expanded and expanded and expanded. There are hundreds and hundreds of quests to get through at this point. And every 3-4 months they add even more. But if story isn't your thing, you can purchase level and story skips in the game's real money store, the mogstation. Though personally I like the story, especially later on in Heavensward and Shadowbringers and the journey is really something to experience, so I would not recommend doing so. There is talk though of the early parts of the game being reworked and shortened.

In fact, the next big patch, 5.2 Echoes of a Fallen Star is coming in about a month! With it more MSQ, a new dungeon, new trials, relic weapons and armor, crafting and gathering reworks and the next raid tier!

Really I'm just scratching the surface here. Feel free to talk about anything in the game you want!
