@chicagosoftcore oh my god that is the bad luck of the century i hope everything ends up ok. at the very least, you can probably get that replaced, but paying money for it when it was right there feels bad

thank you! i love your site too! there's something so nostalgic feeling about it. it really reminds me of being a kid in the 2000s in the computer room for some reason.

really? as someone who's tired of how baby easy FFXIV has been made I feel like these changes have a lot of potential, especially with actually making each class feel unique again instead of feeling too samey

@bootlegdomain: I disagree. I think they lower the skill floor even more than it's ever been. The idea that we're taking utility and condensing it down to "less buttons" and allowing freeform rotations doesn't reward people who put in the effort to learn said rotations and perform them in high end content. the fact that u even get a potency boost from the new system proves that.

like, they were doing stuff like adding damage to white mage healing skills, reducing the 2 shield abilities into 1 (and everyone claimed 'they don't do much different' but as someone who raids on whm i value having them both for endgame), and theyre making temperance the same as expedience. its not making classes feel unique. its making them feel homogenized more than ever.

especially when you factor in party buffs being taken away. hell, i'd argue that strips astrologian from its identity entirely. as they do with ast like every expac so far.

like idk this game is just moving in a direction that myself and a lot of other people i know who raid are all very frustrated with. we're finally given kefka ultimate but we got hit with a backhand as well. like, i hate to sound rude but as i said, they cater to the skill floor, but it doesn't feel like they cater to the skill ceiling. and that ceiling is kinda caving in on itself.
idr how old mothy's evils series is but man does servant of evil still hurt like so bad.
also s/o to s0uldew for encouraging the s/i change because the other one was meme. like i like kaiba a lot as a character, but i am admittedly very tired of being mistaken for one of his yumes... i am just not. i've gotten attacked over it at this point too and im like exhausted.
as someone in the yugioh yume circles on twitter, kaiba's yumes are really cruel and possessive more than any other character ive seen........ im sorry you went thru that
@oudkee yeahhh they are kinda brutal. i saw someone in a group piss off The Big One and it was surreal to witness because it resulted in so much drama. it's so aggravating. i started finally shrining my own f/o as a result (and calling him that) of how they've been over the last few months tho n kinda wanted to stop posting less kaiba stuff considering people assume liking a char must be romantic :s
