i saw the post and legged it to terncliff to check gaius, so i can attest he was 😭 which makes sense bc they fixed his neck seam last patch, too. im assuming they'll add extra face bones to him and zenos, varis etc soon.

they were updated though!

im sorry. that's not what i meant. i will stop replying now, because i am failing to express what i think appropriately, i believe, and you deserve better than to feel like attacked.
comment in response to post
i mean it's not okay. it's bad. i think i said it's bad like... 5 times. but they can do better, and they should. and either i believe they can do better and demand that, or i think they can't. but if i thought they can't, then I'd stop playing entirely, 'cause it's a subscription game.
comment in response to post
oh, i thought this was another thread entirely lmao eh whatever, you can disregard what i said if it's too much. i hope they do better in future patches bc i would rather give the benefit of the doubt for now and say it was an honest mistake. we will see. if they don't. well then they should blow up
comment in response to post
role quests aside though, as much as i said 'I'd rather a failure than an excuse', that doesn't mean that if they keep reiterating the same failure that's excusable. if it's bad, they better fix it, period. you can't be perfect, but you can damn well improve, yknow? and apologize, if need be. done.
comment in response to post
casual. about a serious issue. granted, it might be intentional and it just didn't land well; attempt and failure. they didn't feel so insensitive per se. however. when i say aiming is politically bad, i mean it. it is not insensitive, it's legit red scare 101. it's trite, it's borderline evil.
comment in response to post
like, it's a bit nasty in that specific regard. still, I'd rather an honest attempt and a failure, hopefully something they try to do better by in future patches, than a tired excuse of 'well, it's hard so i won't'. now, as for the role quests, i would say they're not as insensitive as they are...
comment in response to post
haven't done the pelupelu quests bc i hate allied sociey stuff, so i can't say anything about it. i think they made some mistakes and some were p bad. it is not the entirety of it. feels a bit like they got the sensitivity readers for latin american nations, but not NA. which makes sense, but god...

the job quests in this game are ADDICTED to being as pro-status quo as possible. whenever they even sniff something close to politics, it's godawful. the definition of reactionary. Samurai questline zaza.

may i ask what this means?
comment in response to post
rather, i think there would be mroe room for genuine discussion if it weren't for the abysmal immediate politics of the whole thing. i can't go 'yeah, i think this was done in good faith' re: melee or tank questlines, per example, when aiming exists, simply put.
comment in response to post
i think it's definitely something to discuss on like... how appropriate or not it can or can't be. personally, i don't think comedy necessarily degrades the subject, depends on how it's done. but there's also the fact there's... literal red scare propaganda like... this is so unserious...
comment in response to post
melee, healer and tank had funny and engaging stories at least. casting didn't include magnai, that was still melee. it's that fucking forgettable. casting was in thavnair. aiming was literally anti-communist propaganda 101 from the 60s. it was so. fucking. bad.

hell yeah, brother

i wonder what we're getting for msq in this case. cause it's gonna be about the Fake One, and i can't think of a dungeon they'd pull for that. very curious.
comment in response to post
i think if we get field exploration and cosmic, we might go without msq combat content (dungeon, trial), but i wouldn't be surprised if we did get a simpler trial
comment in response to post
CEOs see one game pop off and think that it's a formula that can be boiled down to barebones and copy pasted for profit. Happens so damn often it's not even funny. It's like you lose their soul or capacity for enjoying things when you get rich.

sorry, i started getting excited about more chaotic raids, so I'll just say i wouldn't *mind* waiting for after diabolos and ultima chaotics for her inflorescence (personally, i think both bosses would be great chaotic raids), but i really really really like her inflorescence, so i want it badly.
comment in response to post
i think durante reminds fteli of gaius enough that that fteli has a subconscious attraction to him in a 'says 'would' in a dead silent room' kind of way

considering glam designs for dun scaith and orbonne would be hard to make (dun scaith would kinda be the same thing as CoD, orbonne is just 12/tactics stuff, which we already got) it's not impossible the next chaotic is Her Inflorescence and i fucking hope so. i love the nier raids.

actually, i had an idea that i might not have an exhaustion-related incident about. imma try it.

and i realize now that maybe you weren't asking for advice at all. sorry, if that was the case. 😔
comment in response to post
it's mostly boring every day work of grabbing your bad thoughts (and by bad i mean the irrational, anxiety/depression-driven ones, especially comparisons) and telling them to shut up. every single time. for as long as it takes until they learn. like this, for the visual learners:

i play gachas sometimes? and i honestly don't give a shit tbh. but im also basically immune to FOMO by having fought and defeated my anxiety psychological horror game boss style, so take my experience with a grain of salt.

there's tara, they share a significant portion of their consciousnesses. they're inside each other's mind all the time. and then there's gaius and in that case it's just his c

and half the time he's just asking me to go look at him for 5 minutes, yes.
