When you and your S/O have spent so much time together that, without any communication about it, you make the same glam for the same class

Merk has a Bozjan accent (which given their Slavic naming conventions i hear as a Ukrainian or Belarusian accent) but also has Lominsain quirks to his speech because of his father, his Lominsain side comes out in full force when he is annoyed or stressed though.

Curious on your WoL do the have a accent and what type they have?

Hotaru has a Turali accent with a southern hint to it.

Throw back to one of my favorite interactions in my FC Discord, and the hazards of being a bi disaster in a gay relationship

Diabolos! I went there to be apart of the Brainscratch Commentaries FC. Had fun but ran into some financial issues and couldn't keep playing. When I came back I went to Goblin to be with my BF at the time, after we broke up I was adrift for a while until I met my current BF and went to Brynhildr

For players: Which server are you from? 🗺️ Is there a story behind why you chose that server? And do you mind friends visiting you there?

Mercenary Kings
Best Indie Game of all time but you cannot say Hollow Knight or Stardew Valley

Astrologion is the worst for me on controller. They got too much going on and it all feels important to their kit. Viper is the easiest by far for me on controller.

For those of us who play FF14 with controller, which job do you find more difficult to play with controller? Also vice versa, which job is easy with controller?

Please, I don’t care who you are, but be kind and patient at stores this holiday.

Idk what hair was slapped across everyone’s ass this holiday season, but I’ve never seen such entitlement from people in all my years working.

If you see someone start something be a voice for the poor worker.
a crowd of people are gathered in a store with a sign that says ' aa '

Look, I stopped doing Commentaries because of both a desire to just enjoy content instead of finding flaws and a lack of time...

But some of you fuckers defending AI on FFXIVTok are making it really fucking tempting to un-retire Gregor T. Eblan and go full Pigeon John Time.

Four DPS got together randomly and decided to punch out a monster of both light and dark.

That is to say my spouse and I cleared PT for the first time tonight. #ffxiv

My mantra is "I don't need perfection, just competence." I feel like that's a low bar and yet...I've seen so many trip over it. Freecure Fishers in The Dead Ends, Tanks single pulling in Expert Roulette, and people juat enable it. Kid gloves gotta come off at some point.
Sweethearts, as gentle as I can: using the very basic kit of your job is the very minimum you should do in casual content.

And on lvl 90+ it's criminal to skip the very foundation of a given job, such as DNC's steps.

It's NOT some pro, raider only bs- it's very basic stuff you should learn #ffxiv
