(Y’all have no idea how excited I am for this interview to go up)

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers:

Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users.

That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

planning a full rp experience with a friend and I'm kinda excited, ngl

my friends and I are very much off the game rn. Between poor balance decisions and weak storytelling, what kept our group playing has fizzled out.

Both of these can be remedied, but it certainly won't be this patch. Sigh.

(i wouldn't disrespect squinoa by doing this with selphie, his current belle.

and, uh. the person who was most like rinoa for ffxiv squall...was minfilia........)

i mean, almost?

Appreciate this!

hhrrroughg i want squall w/ wings so bad like

the writing is on the wall and it says "wings don't represent monsters. they represent freedom to those who have none."

squall's symbol isn't just a lion, it's a winged lion. one that he very likely designed himself.

I'm just going to have to exist with my FFXIV lore of Squall being Gaia's dad and og mentor and also literally having beef with Mitron in every single incarnation

god i want an ff8 sequel so bad.

I've been spouting on and on about dark knight squall and griever bs for y e a r s and then ffxiv brings in a squall equivalent and makes her ORACLE OF DARKNESS?

THEN HAS HER FUSE WITH THE RINOA EQUIVALENT?

im die

this tbh. I actually can't write in private discord RP. Writing for an audience is different to writing between to people, and I don't enjoy it unless it's someone I'm very close to and can relax while writing with. Otherwise I start to feel obnoxious when I describe setting or scene.

happy FRU day!! good luck gamers \o/

all im taking from fru is that we need an ff8 sequel where squall gets wings

don't care how

Koana is literally yukio okumura without the baggage

WAIT

BUT ZORAAL JA HAS IT

FUCK

But Krile barely had any narrative relevance or agency right up until LM and then was "oh here's her parents. bye."

I liked a lot of the plot seeding DT did but it feels like certain aspects have been kind of left out to dry

like squall went to Tural because Krile invited him-- they'd known each other for years but were never close, and have a bit of a trauma bond from their Echoes giving them access to shit they don't want to know + Minfillia's death

im ngl its very stressful watching the writing dynamic continue to tumble in ffxiv knowing that's what keeps both myself and my friends playing. I WANT to play, bc I do enjoy the game, but I need a narrative hook and I've been given so little

happy lesbians ultimate day!

thankfully I think this isn't the case as this Tural Vidraal was the one that Zoraal Ja was sent to kill with the original Landsguard and didn't, ie the Vidraal itself predates the dome. Zoraal got lucky with the dome positioning.

but, it's nice for the body horror aspect

Told group they were misguided and going to die - AITA

I'm currently an adventurer, 22M/Miqo'te. Spent a lot of time after the Calamity assisting with cleanup so they invited me to some sort of restoration cult to fight primals and I said no but now I kind of feel bad about it??

update: they died

hard to play when my friends aren't really interested lol

i just want everyone to know I am gleefully delighted that everyone is being forced to sit in a room with legendary beast playing for hours again
