Actually I dont sit in venues all day, but I do housing, and I am happy about the furniture increase, I guess because I like housing I dont have the right to an opinion, am I allowed to say what I want to say or do I have to ask you first ?

They can't, always be on the defensive, always ready to cut somebody down for....reasons.
Stupid Drama aside...
I like the Twins. They came a long way since ARR
Same, Im a fan of Alisaie as well. I like her more Straight foreword approach and how she wants to be part of the Action. Its a cute contrast to Alphinaud who likes to be the Intellectual Diplomat.
so because I do housing I shouldnt do MSQ ? What kind of stupid take is this
I'm sure you have a working brain, you can make it work and understand where they "said" this.
I aint wasting a post to respond to that.
Prove it.Quote:
Don't forget that they LIED to the players.They quite literally said the old Scions won't be joining us
Who said this, where and when.
I ask what I asked. Proof or it didnt happen.Quote:
I thought you don't like it when people provide evidence? Or is that just when it disproves what you're saying?
Tbh i like the twins however i wish the next expansion would reduce the cast of Scions that are joining us to make room for newer characters
Also ngl i was expecting the Twins to finally grow up but i guess they are just going to be stuck as 16-17 year olds constantly
But i didn't saw Alphinaud in the trailer?
Im afraid we only going on travel with Alisaie... I like Alphinaud a lot more than her.
I'd have to admit that I was mildly disappointed to see the Scions in the trailer. I actually preferred the way things were in 6.x, where they were making - for lack of a better term - cameo appearances to help us solve a problem within their individual areas of expertise.
And with that in mind, I don't really understand why they're following/accompanying (not clear on which) the Warrior of Light to the New World. I mean, my personal hope for how things would've played out for them:
- The Twins: Remain in Garlemald offerring support. The situation there really didn't seem overly stable.
- Y'Waifu: Assuming a method of travelling to the First is established, I'd have preferred her to decide to remain there with the Night's Blessed
- Estinien: Remain to support Vrtra and (assuming she survives 6.5) Azdaja, considering what they'll have been through
- G'raha: Difficult one, due to the promise made to him - although we did take him along to the realm of the gods, therefore arguable that we didn't keep our promise
Difficult to comment on Thancred and Urianger as they didn't really seem to have a great deal of direction at the end of 6.0 anyway
Point is, in all of these cases it isn't clear why they've all decided to develop an 'Adventurer complex' (not something they really demonstrated before) and decided to go running off to the New World, abandoning what they were doing beforehand. Whilst the story may (or may not) provide a motive for them to do so, it does feel a bit much.
Anyway, whilst I don't particuarly want to see any of them die as such (as not a fan of killing characters for the sake of it), I do feel that they didn't need to remain front-and-centre and I do hope that their presence doesn't mean we lose the opportunity of meeting more diverse characters to accompany 'us' in the New World.
When are Alphinaud and Red Alphinaud gonna hit puberty and have a growth spurt already?
i have to say. of all the characters.... erenville really feels refreshing. even though i dont love him us much as others seem to.
i like the others but at some point its enough. most of them had their developement and it would have been the perfect moment to split with some of them.... later reappearances in other expansions would be great (but thats not really possible if they are always around us anyway)
This is what a lot of people thought would happen prior to the Void arc, and where anyone with the vaguest inclination towards telling a good story would go, but priorities have changed at SE HQ and as a result we've got what we've got. It doesn't make much sense from a narrative perspective, but it does from a marketing one.
I adored the twins. At one point, nigh on everyone loved the twins. Alphinaud was my boy during HW. I doubt you will find anyone here who didn't love them or at least some of the Scions at some time or another. But 9 years is a long time, and at the end of the day, they are video game characters, not real people, and I challenge you to find anyone who would find playing the same game with the same basic characters and the same basic dynamics anything other than frustrating after that long.
I'll explain it for you, because you seem to have trouble grasping concepts like this often enough so I believe your confusion and sense of loss is legitimate now.
Valkyrie_Lenneth tried to deflect a complaint that originated from an opinion from AlexiaD by saying that AlexiaD spends their time hanging out at venues and that this development should not matter to them. This statement implies that AlexiaD only hangs out at venues and does not do anything else in Final Fantasy XIV, and it is also implies that Valkyrie_Lenneth believes that they should not voice their opinion about something that Valkyrie_Lenneth was not aware of them having any interest in, also implying that Valkyrie_Lenneth believes that no one should have an opinion about anything when Valkyrie_Lenneth is not aware of their interest in that topic.
Valkyrie_Lenneth later responded to AlexiaD's response to say that Valkyrie_Lenneth is not into PVP so Valkyrie_Lenneth would not comment on PVP and would just ignore it. However that implies that Valkyrie_Lenneth then believes that content related to AlexiaD's complaint would be something that could just be ignored, and this also implies that Valkyrie_Lenneth believes that AlexiaD does not like the MSQ or would ignore the MSQ, in which the Scions, including Alisaie and Alphinaud, will appear.
Thus, AlexiaD responded as AlexiaD did, and rightfully so, because Valkyrie_Lenneth's stance is one that implies that AlexiaD should exclude herself from a conversation and possibly from content based upon Valkyrie_Lenneth's perception of AlexiaD's interests.
To summarize, assumptions made an ass out of Valkyrie_Lenneth (as they do with all), and AlexiaD did not appreciate the implications or the assumptions made.
Is that sufficient?
On topic, I... kinda really wish we had the scions just make guest cameos here and there, rather than be involved in the mSQ anymore. Maybe a letter or call or something, here and there? Some advice, maybe?
We need new blood.
I'm actually ok with Alisaie tagging along, because that just means something's going to potentially get murderated, and that's always fun, but Alphinaud is like bringing your 5 year old cousin with you when you go out with your friends to have some fun at a local arcade.
I guess I'm just not, personally, looking forward to being everyone's attack dog, being told what to do by the other Scions, and having things explained to me like I'm the target audience of Dora the Explorer when I already understand the situation, just so fans can have more CG renderings of Graha eating food.
I like Alisaie.
To be fair, all they do is complain about anything and everything and insult people, and then tell them housing is fine if they have complaints about the system. So it wasn't really that off the mark.
If you have any issues with housing and how small groups used multiple account to buy up whole wards, too bad so sad.
oh my god, WHY IS IT SO HARD for the poster to ever give a basic explanation when one is clearly asked for. Everytime, somebody else has to come to their rescue and do, what the OP I was replying to, CANT do.
This happens a good number of times as well, I usually just have my intelligence insulted, instead of just a basic explanation. But I guess thats just asking to much, somebody else has to do it for them.
But, thank you, I appreciate THIS at least, where, even if I dont see it or believe it personally, YOU at least had the decency to just simply explain it to me. Instead of just Childishly Insulting me.
At the very least I now have a better upstanding
Because the information you wanted was readily available and incredibly obvious to anyone who bothered to read even one page before you butted in.
Dude, you're upset that people are treating you like you're dumb, and yet you're only realizing that Alexa was her alt now? Stormpeaks has quite literally come out and said that Alexa is her alt multiple times. Not that it wasn't mega obvious anyways. Congratulations I guess.
I am dumb, there are times I am slow, I self admitted that a few posts ago especially when I was asking for help to understand something I very clearly didnt understand.
Im suppose to be the slow one here. lol
So now that I said that out loud, Im sure Im going to hear about it from the usual people just like when I said I had Hyperglycemia.
But moving on.
When and Where? Since Im apparently the last one to know, its pretty obvious I didnt see it...whenever they posted that. I dont hardly interact with Stormpeaks, but Im just suppose to know something I probly didnt see. And people get all upset when assumptions and accusations are tossed around about posters probly being an Alt, and ya'll come in to Meme about it.
But I guess this time it would have been ok. Lol
The Conversation was on Page 5....the Front Page doesnt answer that conversation at all.
So what information was I suppose to get?
Didnt have to guess, I was just literally Told.
I think we need a mission where Alphinaud has to wear red to disguise himself as Alisaie, or vice versa
Ok, so if you yourself are saying that you are dumb and slow, then why would you be upset if other people are treating you as if you're dumb and slow? You asked a dumb question, and are insulted that others recognized it as such and refused to give you anything other than a dumb answer. I don't see how you can act like you're self aware but then also act insulted when other people look at you the same way you view yourself.
Literally every AlexaD post ever posted has been excruciatingly obvious about it.
Yes, because it's not a case of people being paranoid over shadowy boogiemen if the person themselves intentionally and frequently makes it quite obvious that they're using an alt to post more than the ridiculous limit on these forums allows.
You came back into the thread on page 5 and asked where Valkyrie was implying that Stormpeaks afks at venues all day, when it was literally on the page beforehand. I'd understand if it was a very long thread or if it was from another thread, but all you had to do is go back one page.
EDIT:
Yeah, I know what happened. It was still a very dumb question. Stormpeaks told you that you could figure it out because it should have been very easy for you to do so if you actually tried to.
No idea why we need to talk about this....
But Im not upset that Im being Treated like Im dumb, Im upset that I literally asked for an Explanation because I didnt understand, and Im just insulted instead of just getting an answer to help me understand. If I was ignored, whatever, moving on.
Looks like I wasnt paying enough attention and just missed it.
Whoops
No....Here is a Recap.
I agreed that is a stupid take to say "so because I do housing I shouldn't do MSQ"
Even now, I still agree, that is a stupid thing to say. My Question/Conversation was...when did Valkyrie_Lenneth say this? and I even asked "Is there a message somewhere I missed?"
AlexiaD / Stormpeaks then comes in to tell me "I'm sure you have a working brain, you can make it work and understand where they "said" this."
Which I replied with "So you cant Explain how they said something that they didnt even say"
That is the Play-by-Play of what happened.
And then MintnHoney came in to explain it to me, because obviously, my brain doesn't function in a way that I would Pick up on that, my brain is literally searching for when Said Stupid take, was even said by Valkyrie_Lenneth. Verbatim.
And thanks to MintnHoney giving me that explanation, I understand everyones mindset better. Because in my Area, we Criticize what is actually said, not subtleties hidden within. And we dont hide what we mean, we just say it.
Im upset, I couldnt just get a simple explanation like that, instead of just being insulted.....or at that time it just felt like an insult, now its like...whatever, I am dumb, so its not even an insult.
I just wanted to understand how someone said something they didnt even say.
