If I remember correctly, Northman just didn't speak English well, so it was hard to understand him. This guy, from what he has said, appears to be a native speaker (He might not be, I don't know.) but is just as, if not more, confusing.

I've seen people use drugs that can articulate their thoughts better.

You see im divorced and already lived that life you talk about. do you really play for fun or do you LOVE EACH OTHER when playing? One day it will change. do you do this everyday? My Ex wore a mask half the time to try to hide her feelings. i knew them i sure did and my best friend and my friends at work. and her friends at work. I would get married on FFXiv. Marry into that or it wont work. Keep the game in your life. Dont let him go. Dont let him log off.

Yes, in fact we met playing FFXI 9 years ago, been together 8 (hell, we even got married in XI 8 years ago haha) and married 4 next week. We can't always go out due to no baby sitter, so we play XIV :P We always do stuff together in-game. He's not my prince charming, but he is my soul mate.

Sorry to hear about your marriage, and I can understand how being hurt can give someone a negative opinion on things. Best of luck to you finding a wife with similar interests

So what your saying is the FFXi formula works. that you found your soulmate through FFXi and playing Final Fantasy right. How did you know? What led it to you? do you write a book? could you tell us the details? I have been searching for a sucessfull marriage and the only one i could find is what you say. Okay well /congrats on 50 more ffxiv years. Do you have pictures? allright Thank you bye,bye

Bastok

Ps. what about Video?

The problem wit this thread is that it failed in the first post, because the OP already used his RL card so no argument can be entertaining anymore

In b4 the guy says that Black Mage are like Racism in rl

Those mages are black not because of 'black magic' but because they wanted to be hated by the mob

'just like Black people beeing hated back then then beeing slaved.

Ok i went far but not like this thread is important

Bastok, I would like to come up with a counter-argument to your original posting/theory; however, I would first like to make sure that I understand your case completely. Here is what I took to be a summary of your first post:

You claim that this, the "Real World," is actually based on a number of fake or false suggestions and brings doubt to the legitimacy of calling this the "Real World." Through your examples you state that peoples' goals/dreams/aspirations in the "Real world" are determined largely by comparing themselves to others that appear in mainstream society and media. Due to the fact that most media (such as TV) is based in fiction, people are then setting unachievable goals based on situations that do not really exist. Conversely, the world that is presented by FFXIV and other MMO's do not suffer from such circumstances. Players have the freedom do what they want and are able to set goals/desires on things that are actually attainable. Therefore the world of FFXIV is more real than this one.

Please let me know if this is an accurate assessment of your case or if I have missed anything.

Basically Laws apply to Real-world, that dont let you have the Freedom you should have. so I am talking about FReedom.

This is a good anology.

You have a job if you are a Man/Woman at age 19+ You must work daily to achieve your goals and what you must do for those days. If you are smart you are going to a daily job that allows you to do the things you want to do with someone or friends. At the end of the day or during the day you hope to have lunch or talk with the boss or friends at work and achieve more goals and reputation. When you are ready to go home. The same thing applies you go home to hope to talk to someone about more things and hopefully to have fun in something else at home. You often feel lost in movies or TV because you are constantly watching programs in that you hope to do something like that one day or you feel you need to be that person in TV or movies that you see. You have no real conversations with anybody as you hope to express or feel what concerns you and you hope that it concerns others.

If you are a Woman, you are constantly preparing for other things and other days. you dont look at the days as one/day at a time more like one week at at time. So, you have no time for just days. You are constantly planning ahead and hoping that one day it will pay off. You sit in front of the TV 8+ hours a day hoping realizing, that one day the programs will influence you and you will make a decision, one day to realize you dont like your life. You hope that everything will fall into your lap and you will live this FAntasy way of living that is broadcasted on the TV, or movies. That life doesn't exist and prince charming doesn't exist. However, you still think that one day it will all change and you will do anything to get to it. No matter who you hurt. You will have this life. You will put a mask on and pretend to enjoy your life and you will be in misery for the most part until you are unsatisfied with the outcome of the Real world and you fall into Alcohol, Drugs, Sex, Money. In your life there is at least one you will fall into. The Real World has your life that evolves around this and it is a famous pattern.
The Real World is intended for you not to like your life and to view others and TV, Movies, Events to better your life and to see that your way of life is not working. If you dont believe me how many Seminars have you been too. How many speakers do you know? How many religious books do you own? YOur mind must be exercised, but how can it you let it watch and dream all day long on Fantasy. Wondering about fantasy, reading about Fantasy. Striving for fantasy. Love books, Novels Day-time tv
DRamas, soap Operas, Game shows, real life situations, goverment, you want to be involved or you will be considered NOTHING. Wrong, wrong, wrong, The way you live is right. The way you feel is right. As you were born their was only one way to feel and live by faith. You were born and by faith you lived. Their was no choice. When the Real World entered your mind and you understood the language(s) then you made decisions and then you yourself made the right choice all the time. The limitations were told to you by your parents, teachers, goverment officials.

By these three, you feel you are obligated to do the right thing. You discover what is right and what is wrong by your mind and the emotions of others. How big is this World? and what do I have to do to understand it? Exactly....

Now if your a guy you feel lonely all the time. YOu hope that your voice and actions are those that are imitated by someone famous. You love thinking of Women, money and Sex all day long as you hope to involve your life around this. You feel women understand you and you hope to achieve the goals daily. You like talking bad about anything and hope that someone will understand you. You are Greedy and you want the World at your feet one day for Power. You ofthen think of Men of Great Power and you fantasy yourself in those positions. You dont feel its a bad thing Money, Power, Glory, and so you watch Tv that glorifies all of your decisions. Most Guys on TV and movies and in Real-life act as you do. So you must follow the same pattern or you will be a outcast. You feel you will lose everthing if you dont follow the same pattern as most guys. so you change your language, act, talking, personality to fit the pattern. Deep down your really lost, deep down your crying for FANTASY......

Now that I have covered the Real-World What is Fantasy World. LImitations? what can you do? What do you want to do? Is there a Three Officials telling you what to do? what level can you achieve? Can you make the TV, Movies, in what you see real here? what is the right Way? Are you dreaming, no this is Fantasy World? So you can be yourself here. What is the right way to live here? What is the right way to play? who is the Leader? whats the Law?

Make a list of all the things you want to do in real-life that you strive for and apply them to the Fantasy World. Guess what they come true. That is why you feel you dont understand Fantasy Worlds. They are what you strive for what you live for? Everything comes true here. so make your dreams come true.

This is not the REal-World

---

These are the laws that are bound to you as you entered the Real-world, before you had Fantasy, but now you must be in the Real-world for a time until the Source decides that time is when. What is the Source? I believe we have seen the Source in our lives, everyday. It is the eternal source that drives you to the next day or the next question. If I have gone too far as to know what I am talking about. I will explain. It is biblical but to know the Source as to what I beieve is what I came from since birth. Maybe that is the case for everyone. we just have to explore the options. okay well i hope that is what your asking?

Is this the real life~? Or is this just fantasy~?

Seriously, though, your perception is hilariously skewed. So bitter!

So where does you trying to pretend to be someone else by creating a new character fit into all of this?

Yet you leech off of a company that soothes your need for Fantasy. your very words are CRap, and I dont have to hear the ground speak.

As for your last three sentences, I have no idea what you're stating because I cannot undertand it.

Hey, good for you man. I have no problem with you trying to think deeply about life and all that, it's just tha you're doing it in the wrong place. The FINAL FANTASY XIV Official Forums is no place to talk about all this.

"You want fast answers and that is not what is important. You cannot understand what i say because its a language you have not heard from. You cannot tell the plants to grow tall without watering them. You cannot grow fruit without Sun or ground or dirt. yet when I tell you that is which has already been decided. These things have already come to pass. To me your like a cat or dog mind. always wondering looking but not really comprehending anything. So when i tell you something you catch phrases and your mind is locked and cannot and will not let go of the will that it has to grow and learn and expand. We are human. Your brain is bigger than your hand. Use it once. Break it free from corruption.

can someone summarize this thread for me?

dont listen to anybody, because they are not part of your dream. In Fantasy all your dreams come true. Whatever you want or feel that is what is the question. What is beyond the question is another world that is built upon your dream. Its like a tree that begins to grow until it is as tall as the World. Dont listen to people who love the Real-World. They are not part of the Final Fantasy World In my dream i am everywhere. I am what makes impossible, possible. I am the fruit and the light of the World. No one really knows me but yet I can be seen from anything or be mentioned from anyone. If light must exist. There is no darkness in me.

No i did not once say stop playing Video games that is your assumption. I said TV. you talk with your mouth not your eyes. I dont care what you like that is what is up to you. yes, as a child I had a choice Nintendo or the brutal beatings as a young youth. i would rather play games. I was master of them and could beat them. YOu want people to like you for your rude one liners about me. lol its not gonna work. How old are you 15. If I was to read you like a book you would have bored me the first sentence. How many games have you beat in your life? hmm. lets see off the top of my head 100+ of ATari, Sega, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Famicom, I dont remember. hmm lets see how many emulators have I ? How many roms, and .nds, have I accomplished? If I am weird then it is my key to the other realm. Weirdness is that key. I am not you nor do look like you, im not your friends, nor do I associate with them. A great man once said "I want to make the world change. so I hit Print." lol Bill Gates. The World has changed since then, hasnt it. lol who was he a nobody, was he like you or me, no? did you make his dream a reality? Hmm Did he find happiness? Where is he now? Okay see no rules. Fantasy and he made it into his life. Do i need to draw you a map? haha

Why would an Elezen, an 8-foot-tall Elezen, want to live on Hydaelyn, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Lalafells? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Bastok! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Bastok lives on Hydaelyn, you must acquit! The defense rests.

I interchanged Hydaelyn and Earth a few times, either way, it did not make sense.

You live in a sad, sad, sad world my friend. I share none of your views. My life does not resemble that in any way shape or form. Maybe you should sign up for the WOOFER program and go work/trade on different organic farms around the world in tropical environments and realize that your life does not have to be a meaningless wastefield. Truly pathetic.

I see this is talking about Marriage. Yes in everything there is marriage. no not the one you know but a Marriage of all things. I know what this means. You dont see this because you yourself have not experienced this level. However, your idea of marriage is Crap and what is a marriage is what a Divine intellect puts together and not let man mess up the Divine Code that is Holy. There you go. I dont expect anyone to understand this but this is TRuth and the truth is not intended for your ways.

Truth,, hmm lemme see hear. Okay knowledge you seek Wisdom, but you cant find that in a sword. What is the "Matsume", that is a legendary sword much like Excalibur and that is a mythical weapon. You really think that the truth is sharp like a sword. Hmm lemme examine further "Master" Senpai, are you one? You also have a long beard. What does that say? That you seek knowledge and want to be honest and have loyalty. That is only gained by truth and experiences. So what is that you hate about me I am the truth and light. If I have Divine knowledge and I bear that in all things. Why can I have the ways of wisdom. I am a messsenger but ye say I am a all power-full being because that I talk in tongues and riddles you cant solve or want to know. I am one from the source as many are one from the source but you think your way is right and you must know by now your way is not what is intended. Give yourself to the source but how can you if you dont know what path to lead to the source. How can you examine or hear something that you barely know? What are you searching for if your here? If your here the truth bare a answer on your tongue like fire and sits and waits till you do something with that truth or use it as a weapon. If our mind is the cage, then we must bear the truth somewhere in our thinking. True we know a part. So if you have tasted the Source and know its will then you can solve the rest with the truth it bares. As you bare that truth you are FREE. You are not bound to anyone or anything. The truth here is your mind is in a chained cage and until you find the key to the Source. You will not understand a thing what I am talking about. So what is in the truth that bares the mind that has the key to the Everlasting Source of truth that you will ever need to know.. Amen
