Eastern makes for a better sidekick, though.

I remember this being scary (awesome) when I was very young. The eastern style can be fun as well, being more snake-like, they're just not as imposing.

I appreciate the response too, Fern. But it really is an awkward name. You mention that when possible, you'd hope for a 'kick-ass' sounding name for something.. This is really the antithesis to...

They have shown they intend to not only combine the two, but at each step we've seen them favor what's needed for PvP. Remember the decision to not allow movement while casting? There are several...

I'm not talking about the frequency of posts, which I doubt will decrease when ARR goes live. I'm talking about the mentality of the general public.

To be more clear, it's the cries of "omfg I...

I don't get it. Despite my best intentions I played the hell out of 1.0. I would think I'm in that tier that would be excited about any significant news related to the game. And I am. But I don't...

At the very least, what they should do is make it so you don't need to hold it down. One press highlights the side that it activates, and if you press the other button, the other side is highlighted.

I suspect some gamepad users are going to get annoyed having to constantly hold down either L2 or R2. I'm hoping to use the keyboard UI, but still be able to move and pan the camera via controller...

If retainer gathering turns up largely trash, it was a waste of development time.

If retainer gathering does have notable value, congratulations. You've now compromised DoL to a hilarious degree....

Yes, it doesn't necessarily say much of anything. But all too often people speak confidently about things they have never even experienced. To ask for some tentative proof that someone has done...

Do you know the percentage of players that cleared Nael (Hard)? Even with some groups carrying people through who could otherwise not beat it?

It's aether. I don't dislike the idea, I'm sure they could make it fit the lore. I would just hope that it's subtle and the effect would be more impressive if you defeat something special.

There's nothing SE could release, XIV related, that could get 2.2 million views in four days. Before questioning other companies, I would look at the fact that the Final Fantasy brand has been...

And going back to my point, flipping the screen is inferior to simply running away from the direction you were facing. It takes pressing something unnecessary -then you get to watch as your screen...

At no point in your video do I see you turn around and run backwards in a straight line. I don't think we're on the same page.

As I noted the camera angles are for mouse turning, not flipping the screen. I covered both.

So pressing more things is better than pressing less? To perform the same action? Let's even go beyond this simple fact.

You'll have to "flip" the camera before you begin running. That's lost...

Guess who the biggest proponent of this mindset is? Yoshida has stated he wants people to get the the cap fairly quickly, and openly includes powerleveling as a way to do this. He has publicly...

The fact that group quests may exist doesn't mean that it's a substancial portion of the game, or one's EXP. Will "group" quests give a higher rate of EXP than if you were to do solo ones? If the...

If it is noticably slower people will, by and large, not do it. A comparison to WoW makes little sense here. What matters is the rate of EXP by grinding versus the rate of EXP and sustainability of...

I know it was often the case in 1.0; AoE'ing down a large number of targets every minute is not a deep or fulfilling way to level. Not when you'd almost have to try to get yourself killed. There's...

Don't know what you have until it's gone. Unless you can improve on repeating what is essentially the same "quest" 400 times over, you shouldn't have that as your base leveling system. Not if...

Ideally you would want animations that while satisfying, don't obscure or distract too much from what's going on so that you can better react. The more you can view, the more the developers can ask...

Since they announced regional servers, I've been resigned to the likelihood of them having a few in CA and that will be it for the US. People on the east coast are still going to be almost 3,000...

This is not a trailer. SE is clearly presenting this to us as ARR's opening movie.

This is a trailer. The people refusing to acknowledge this as an opening movie need to stop looking at a duck...
