I think this happened on a stream I watched once, and I can't find it again, but I'm pretty sure Sena Bryer once read that one meme in the Wuk Lamat voice ("I'm at my fucking Wuk Limit") and it constantly rattles around in my head like a screensaver

Thank god for Xenoblade Chronicles and its periodic "You just hit a major story beat. Would you like to save?" prompts for helping me unlearn this habit

See, my first actual video game was Kingdom Hearts 2, which has fixed save points. So that had a profound impact on my video game saving habits.
I would come across a save point and I *had* to save, but if there's not fixed save points, I usually forget.

Did not read the name Chris correctly, and thought this was a totally different genre of post at first
Real "What the hell, sure" moment

People really didn't figure it out after Thavnair had not just a bunch of Au Ra that didn't align with the traditional "Xaela/Raen" cultural division, but also had Matanga that didn't align with THEIR initially presented cultural division...

I think it's less that a lot of those things need *adjusting* and more revisiting and further exploration. Like, mixed races have already been shown once with Hilda, so it just needs to be *expanded on* more. You know?

The joys of tormenting oneself for hours on end for the sake of a small, seemingly meaningless triumph are what produce the value of art and anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't understand the world they live in

I also wonder... based on Halmarut's words about the fate of The Ninth, I think whatever they mean is a fate shared by all the shards. I've wanted an "Eden part 2: Restore the Thirteenth" storyline for a long time, but... I think we might actually get something like that.

Oblivion is, of course, Ysayle and Shiva's theme. However, it has many parallels to Hydaelyn, and, crucially, The Endsinger. The Endsinger's Whole Thing is "The song of Oblivion," after all.
Return to Oblivion? Yeah, it's Ryne-Shiva's theme, but... let's be real, here.

I met Lumull and immediately went "Oh I didn't know that *I* was in this game now. That's lovely"
Poster child of combined-type ADHD. Perfect lad

Koana's a major world leader, which means he's far too influential and powerful to realistically marry *or* kill, and G'raha is an absolute powerhouse of a mage, while Thancred lost his ability to do magic. And, Thancred's like, entire character arc is over... has been for a while, honestly

It's narratively no different than the canonical "band of adventurers" we gathered for Operation Archon or Thordan. It was just a way to accommodate doing that in The First, which didn't have equivalent figures before us, due to being in ruins.

We need a mod-maker Master Matoya

Live vicariously through me for now

I'll never even consider another title, since it's just too perfect- *especially* for the FFXIV version of Jay. The only reason that he's able to *be* the Warrior of Light is because he's constantly striving to do what she would do- otherwise he'd be an anti-hero, at best.

I played WoW for 10 years, and was a MASSIVE fan of its story, and that was the main reason I quit playing when I did- the story had just completely gone to shit. So to see that FFXIV had put so much love and care into the story genuinely healed me fundamentally

Upon defeating the Endsinger, Jay remembered his true origin- he's from another world altogether (The world of the book I'm writing!) and in that world, he's both the son of a god and the son of their world's first dragon. With this remembrance, his true strength was unlocked.
