I'm not sure how many more times "do it for the Steam Machine" will get me through any more ghosted job applications

For Gunbreaker, I stick to Crownsblade Recollection because it's black and silver and emits a blue glow and the Leonhart attire.

For Red Mage, I use the Roseblood attire

For Dark Knight and Paladin, I use the artifact armor shown in the Shadowbringers and Endwalker trailers respectively.

I usually try to go for the color palette associated with the history of the job throughout the series.

For Viper I just dyed my gear black since dual wielding swords doesn't have a strict history or aesthetic in FF.

For Samurai, I adhere to the job's long-running red and black aesthetic.

Apparently my laptop can still run Final Fantasy XIII at 60fps, and even kick it up to 1440p
Still gonna replace it with a Steam Machine though

I wanna play a game that is a manifestation of love and respect for its audience and gistory.

Why would I wanna play Generic Online Shooter 47835 when any given JRPG could move me to tears.

I'm tired of being blamed for not wanting to play these mediocre games.

I miss when games were made by people who made them for the sake of fun and love instead of by people who hate their audience trying to hit a bottom line

No, Western millennial dev, I don't wanna buy your game that has more mtx than actual gameplay.

I'm sorry, but a job overhaul that doesn't massively improve how jobs feel at level 50 and 60 is partially a failure. Not completely, not even mostly, but partially.

I'm at the point where I'll take the 30-minute chop instead of playing under 70.

Idk what they're gonna do for this job overhaul, but within the first 50 levels, every job should have:

- full single-target and AoE filler combos
- first single-target and AoE job gauge oGCDs
- movement options
- spam mitigation for Tanks
- True North at 30 for all Melees

Sword and shield
Greatsword
Gunblade
Katana (second favorite)
Twinfangs (favorite)
And rapiers

Rex loves fighting in melee range to the point where he put off learning Red Magic for so long because of how it requires distance from the target most of the time.

Final Fantasy isn’t a video game

It’s a way of life

Yeah the claws and whatnot are really unappealing to me. I usually stick to the emperor's new fists because of them

For me its the Gunbreaker one. The red just bugs me. I see Gunbreaker, I think silver, black, and blue.

For me, it's because I need it. I can't Lion Heart combo, Double Down, Gnashing Fang combo, and Sonic Break inside of No Mercy without it. Same for the aforementioned Viper opener.

Downside to living across the country from the data center and having a shitty ISP.

It has taken Rex over a year just to get 16 million lousy gil.

You come for my money talking about some taxes and I'm busting the entire Viper opener upside your head
