I also only have 3 of 7. That was also my first time seeing Seiryu. XD I just didn't bother to do it when it was current.

I'm thinking sometime next month I might hold an o4s learning party since it's a pretty easy fight now. I'm thinking of calling it "Christmas and Noodles".

Hopefully I can be on tonight too. I've only managed to catch one doggo farm so far.

Also, XIV is nominated for Best RPG, Best Community Support and Best Ongoing Game at TGA 2019
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/2019-game-awards-full-list-nominees-1255770

At the very least I think it's going to win Community Support. Hopefully it wins the other 2 also!

Oh and they are working on a PS5 version of the game to nobody's surprise. And it's pretty much all but officially confirmed for Xbox.
I would post the twitter link but it has a word that looks like "fuck" in the account name(it's an abbreviation of FF and UK) so GFAQs won't let me post it XD

The only reason to post the name of the whistleblower is to incite violence against the whistleblower, so...

This. I heard Rush the other day say something about "they're hiding his identity to protect his job security" which makes absolutely zero sense. The ONLY reason to seek the whitstleblower's identity is to hurt them.

Adam Schiff just slapped down the republicans attempt to put girl VS girl for the sake of optics!

Ever heard of How Stella Got Her Groove Back? Well this hearing is how the Dems Got Their Balls Back!

Marie Yovanovitchs testimony is damning! And most Americans can relate to doing a good job yet getting fucked over by office politics!

AND Roger Stone found guilty on ALL counts! Hes going to spend the rest of his life in jail... UNLESS... there is still an opportunity for him to negotiate a lighter sentence by helping in, idk, some other bigger investigation.

Not a good day for Trump. Get ready for a shit ton of tweets this weekend.

Im still in shock at how Adam Schiff used the GOPs own rules to own them just now. God damn! If using a boxing analogy, the GOP has been knocked hard and are wobbly on the ropes.

Materia is so confusing now. Grade VIIs are worth less than Grade VIs in terms of stat gains. It's really odd. What they should have done was like switch the stat values for VIs and VIIs, and just turn all the VIs you have into VIIs. Would have been weird but it wouldn't mean values rise and rise then dip dramatically then rise dramatically.

Okay, so, dataminers. Love them or hate them, they've pretty much confirmed The Firmament is going to be a housing ward. I know that when you get there, Count Fortemps asks you what you know about player housing, and you can tell him "I own a house." very VERY heavily implying that the zone you're in that looks like a housing ward is a housing ward. But, also you can teleport to The Firmament through the Ishgard aetheryte menu, just like a normal housing ward. But, dataminers found even more. The zone is flagged as a 2.0 zone. So it's connected to Ishgard, but you could in theory teleport there if there was an aetheryte. Just like every other housing ward, including Shirogane. Even if you don't have access to 4.0+ you can still teleport to Shirogane houses. And, it even shares file pathing with other housing wards.

Now, when these houses will become available, nobody is sure. I would be surprised if it opens up before 5.5. I could even see it opening up in 6.0 or 6.1. But 2 whole years is such a tease. I really hope it opens up before that, I'm a DRG at heart, I need to live in Ishgard.

Edit: But, also, I love that Squenix is just like "you want more housing? build it yourself!". It's like they're giving you the illusion that you the player are solving the housing crisis.

Okay so the crafter FATE is stupid easy. you go to the supply pile. click it. go to the workbench. 5 feet away. click it. and go to the house under construction and click it. there were so many people doing that that I only managed like 4 contributions. but I was in a party so even then we got gold credit and 500 Firmament scrip. And,yes, there's a new scrip currency for The Firmament. There's crafting stuff and materia available. Plus mounts, minions, orchestrion rolls, etc. This is gonna be a nice thing to farm every day after I finish leveling everything.

Also there's going to be another FATE in 8 hours, and step 2 progress didn't begin yet, so idk how that's gonna work.

So for the longest time I heard Hotel was horrible and I never watched it. Then about six months ago or so I decided to check it, and not being a big AHS fan, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also watched Apocalypse recently, and that season really clicked with me for how campy and ridiculous it was, and it makes me think maybe I just got the earlier seasons of AHS that I hated completely wrong. >.>

It does look interesting, looks like there's a lot of variety in the jobs and all that. But the UI looks like it would take a lot of getting used it. And it seems much slower paced than what I'm used to in XIV. I'm not exactly opposed to trying it, but now's not really a great time for me to get into another giant MMO.

So I've been thinking about future Jobs and what they could be, and here's what I think could happen. So throughout the ShB patch cycle, specifically the odd patches, we know they plant to raise BLU's level, so that in 5.5 it will be level 80. So I think either with that, or possibly in 5.4 they release another limited job. Either Beast Master or Puppet Master. BST could be either a melee that uses Maiming gear, or a tank, and it of course would have to go out and capture low level enemies and use them in attacks. Maybe even use them as pets, but I don't think there would be much variety between various monsters. Maybe there's just like a generic templates for each monster type, and different species in each type is basically just a palette swap. Or PUP could be either a magic user or a ranged, and it uses Minions as a weapon or a pet. And, again, it's mostly just aesthetics, and maybe they use the Verminion templates to determine what each minion could do. And with PUP they could possibly revamp Verminion, or add some cool rewards to it to get people to do it, possibly even unique weapons for their PUP. Alternatively they could add like really basic Pokemon-type battles with minions, kinda like WoW's pet battles I guess, but probably even simpler. But regardless of what it is, I'm fairly certain we're getting another limited job this expac.

Then, 6.0. People were mad that ShB didn't get a new healer, and they know that a new healer is what people want. So this could actually come as an alternate to a ShB limited job, like how they released NIN towards the end of ARR, but I doubt they would do that again. I could totally see Geomancer being a new healer, though what it would do, I'm not sure, but it seems the most popular pick for a new healer. Alternatively they could do Green Mage, or Necromancer. NEC would be my pick. I could totally see a system where it debuffs a boss, and attacking it leaches HP from the target to players. Or alternatively it could add like a vampire effect to players attacks as a buff to steal HP, or maybe fill up a buff gauge and turn into like a Balance equivalent or some other damage buff. So a healer comp would be WHM or SCH, and AST or NEC. And we know they want to add at least one DPS to every expac, cus DPS apparently sell expansions. (MCH is historically the least played class in the game, but sure, DPS sell expacs.) So I could see them add either a Scouting or Maiming class. Or another magic DPS. For Scouting or Maiming, Magitek Knight could be really cool I think. And we're most likely going to Garlemald next expac. So Magitek Knight would really fit that story beat I think. Maybe it's like the opposite of RDM where it's mostly a melee, and completing combos fills up a ceruleum resource gauge, and when it's filled it can do pseudo-magic attacks. And then for a new magic class, I would really like to see Spell Blade, or Runic Knight, whatever they want to call it. It would be more of a support, and it would cast spells on itself and party members to add magic damage buffs to attacks.

Then for 7.0, because at that point there will already be 19 full Jobs, and 2 or 3 limited Jobs, they'll only add one new Job, and it will be a DPS.I could totally see them either adding another melee, to round out the Maiming/Scouting/Striking sets so there are 2 jobs for each gear type. Or maybe they'll think "there are too many DoW classes, we need another mage to even things out." and we'll get yet another magic user. But what this Job could be I'm not sure. Or alternatively, what they'll do instead of adding a new Job, is they'll slowly rework the limited jobs and turn them into full jobs.

But yeah I could be completely off base on some of this, or all of this, but I really think at least some of this will happen. I think for sure the game is going to cap out at around 20 full Jobs.

I mean XIV is a proper FF game through and through. Even though it's an MMO, it has a lot of (really good) story, and there's a lot of recognizably FF elements. And it's definitely the best mainline FF game since the PS1, no question about that. XIV is what's keeping FF relevant in the modern games market.
