That's me. I like the story but the usual go here, fight that, go back... It's so token. I'll do it later. lol

I only commend Elezen, duskies first.

With the exception of when someone is very fun/kind in chat or conversely someone is a jerk in chat, 95% of my commendations go to the player whose portrait/glamor plate I like the most.

I think gathering and crafting is better than the entire rest of the game, even back in 2018. When can I beat Shinryu with a threading needle, Yoshi?

I stole a lalafell's sandwich the other day, but i gave the sandwich back later.

Thousands of hours in FFXIV and I've never joined an FC.

I have taken 13 different characters through 2.0 (until the Ultima Weapon fight). 10 in the main account, 3 in a separate free trial account.

In total, these are all my characters on my main account. One for every job.

I log in planning to level up other classes, then log out after I finish my first dungeon/trial.

Ruuuuuude! :OOOOOOO

I often just log in to make leves quests and farm gil, to buy stuff I don't want to farm regulary.
(Like Criterion epic mounts and stuff...)

I have minimal interaction with other players because this game attracts a neurotic, sensitive personality type.

Now you're probably thinking "Volke, you should just be nicer to people and stop calling them mean names!"

And you'd be wrong. It isn't that I'm being mean to people. It's interactions like....

Like that time Cagnazzio was released and the Paladin and I (reaper) were fighting the boss together while the other healer and dps had died at around 65%.

I use up my self-heals and notice the pally isn't healing me. We can definitely duo this boss - so I type "clem?" He doesn't respond, a little while later I get hit by another raidwide and survive with a sliver of hp. Boss is close to death, I type "my brother pls." Bloodbath came off cooldown and I ended up surviving and killing the boss.

He proceeds to write a paragraph about how Paladin just got reworked, he's still getting used to it(despite clemency being exactly the same), how I'm one of the most toxic people he's ever met in the game, and then leaves immediately after hitting enter.

I was literally jaw-dropped after that. All I did was ask for a heal and this man broke down. And over the years, I've had SO many interactions where I've said something benign and people freak out for seemingly no reason. Special mention to the time I was kicked in Praetorium for asking FOUR party members to not AFK.

Yet not many people seem to talk about this, so I came to the conclusion that I'm just very unlucky when it comes to meeting....normal human beings on this game.
