Super General Discussion 2.0 - Always offering a happy, fun time~!

The L tribe of Sunseeker Miqo'te are famous for their rain dances, did you know? Only, when I try them at Sightseeing Location #18, I summon rain so fierce they're considered showers :(

Coris reporting in.
I am still out of words!
A friend, the leader of my FC and the Master of Weapons got me a PS3 + the Deadpool game for my birthday last Thursday! @//////@ Soooo awesome!
Now the Before Meteor OST has to be available again and everything's fine /joy

Requesting a drawing. ^^; I posted in another thread, but it was made after another thread, so it might be ignored.

If possible I'd love if the Apkallu could be drawn in, in some way. If not that is okay. :)

Edit: Vallug in another thread has said he will be doing my request today. :) So you can ignore my request and do others' first. I will keep the pictures up though as a just in case, cause I'd love to see to see her in others' style if someone gets bored enough.

Since Niqote suggested, I request a drawing of mine and my boyfriend's characters together in a lovey dovey way
Him:
Clicky <-character profile
Clicky <-with this outfit (furthest left Bard)
My old character:

I have an eye-hand coordination disability so I could never actually draw myself but I have a love for art. Quite the irony o(；△；)o

Depending on the nature of the disability, this may or may not work (and I ain't a doctor/therapist so take this with a grain of salt), but have you tried different mediums? In this case, standard pencil & paper versus digital drawing tablet. I suggest this, because I can draw just fine on paper, but make a complete clumsy mess trying to use a tablet, which is rather frustrating. But, if you happen to know anyone with a tablet to try, it could be worth a shot!

If you can get the basic motor stuff down, anyone can learn to draw. Aaaaaanyonnne. (disclaimer: please do not injure yourself trying to draw, regardless of disabilities -- injury in the name of art is only for the hardest difficulty modes)


So on another note: I Have one more of these Fantasia indecisions, but I promise this'll be the last...for a while. But, this thread seems to damn well know its cats, so I gotta get an opinion...

There's different personas to each, kinda RP-wise.
Top: More mature, smarter, experienced, choleric. Alternate (smaller) is slightly more blue than grey.
Middle: Less mature, sanguine, kind of a numbskull, but everyone's good buddy. Alternate: Ferocious tribal face paint.
Bottom: Bollywood cat. Like the top but probably with a catchier musical number.

(not settled on hair, since final one will probably get aesthetician'd anyway)

I have hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (I'm pretty sure that's what it was) caused by birth asphyxia, so I can't just "learn" xD
I have plenty of hilariously bad attempts at art to prove it (also terrible hand writing, lots of misclicks when playing or typing and I'm just an extremely clumsy person).

Figured it'd be something along those lines, but had to take a shot in the dark anyway. :D

If it's any comfort, you probably don't have worse handwriting than my sister. I don't think she's actually been diagnosed with anything, but we generally assume she was supposed to be left-handed. What she creates are not letters. Unless it's some sort of eldritch demon alphabet.

This one! I really like it.

Err... It's once image. The bottom one.

EDIT: So... I was thinking! Could we come up with a fun thing to do in this thread to increase the happy? Like, a poem trade or drawing or something silly that makes us all happy and joyous and friendship+? I'd like to take forum friendships to the next level...!!! http://media.giphy.com/media/2WSPCwM1ja4Ss/giphy.gif

I am secretly dreaming that SE would come up with another gear design contest. Even though I am not good a drawing (only imagining stuff but unable to realise, except it's crafting stuff like the bomb lantern) I think this would be nice after so many screenshot contests.

Sooo, what if we had a little competition here about new (fashionable?) hats, necklaces, dresses or what-not? If those had a theme too, that'd be pretty cool. Dunno if this should give a reward next to the fun and appreciation of awesome art ..?

Just my 2 cents :0

I like the Top left one (the grey one) the most. (^_^ )

Q: Will there be a fun battle like the Gilgamesh battle?
A: Another strange character will be making an appearance, and I think you'll have some fun. I just may have shown you some artwork of the character during a previous Letter from the Producer LIVE.

Any ideas, who that might be?

Great idea! Let's all design a piece of equipment - a little blurb about it - and share our ideas!

I don't think we need a reward - just something fun to do!

I suppose there should be some criteria and since I suck both at drawing and am a fair judge. I will announce this month's "Draw me a picture!" contest. Prizes include, fame, admiration and of course yarn and cookies. (Can exchange yarn for other goodies,)

Invention Test: It's cold where I currently live. So a nice pair of gloves, boots and ear muffs would really set things right. Invent me some new clothes.
Rules: Please use in game materials (textures) when drawing, such as peistkin leather, Chinchilla hide, Velvet cloth, etc to give it an authentic look.

Would adding clothes via Paint etc. to screenshots be allowed?
For those like me it would be a great help xD If allowed, having "mannequin-screenies" of different races and genders would be neat too.

You mean like the paper dolls? I suppose that's ok. I think I saw some really cute yukatas someone did somewhere.. http://ff14sc.com/wp-content/uploads...6/up303637.jpg

like this?

Edit: I was thinking about the Manni's but I wouldn't know where to find them.

I did a thing. It is a cute thing.

OK Rubieus! I have invented... THE SNURBLE SNUGGLE SET!
http://i.imgur.com/RuuZ429.jpg
Okay, so first is the snurble goggles. Replacing the traditional beanie, a snurble - woven of tufts and wool - fits snuggly to your head, keeping your brain warm and fuzzy! But attached is the rose-coloured goggles, smithed from darksteel, which help keep your vision as you zip down the slopes of Coerthas! It also makes the world look pretty :3

Next we have the felt snurble mittens! A pair of mittens, lined with golden fleece of snurbles, dyed a beautiful colibri pink and embroidered with a golden fleece. You'll be both stylish and be warm and snuggly! My drawing kind of looks like a rocket mitten... ROCKET PUNCH!

I want those as minions. Where is my green chicken minion! >.<

D/c's happening on Balmung, Sargatanas, and Masamune...think I need to have a talk with my ISP or tie them up with unwanted yarn :3

OMG the new crafted pajamas are sooooo cute and that Chocobo game looks so interesting!

I'm lloking for the tank armor showed in the dungeon prewiev. It will fit to the new style of meru.

And i'know that the ramuh forniture are made of beard. XD

I count at least 3 new gear sets, at least 2 gear sets of vanity and dozen new housing items (see that picture of hildi hahaha)

I was going to wait for private housing but... this makes me think I might buy a private room after all :3

Now I'm finally going to be kinda okay with my retainer bringing me back furniture, except walls, roofs and windows though :/
I must have that goblin doll furniture :O

I want the WORLD GLOBE! Maybe it will give me more hints about the wider world of Hydaelyn...!!

Oooh, the couerlskin loincloth swimwear stuff looks very primitive. Let's get our Pebbles and Bambam on! Yabba-dabba-doo!

Apart of everything we knew was coming, female Sephiroth and king of Ishgard?

Maybe that's where the GMs have gone lol

Thal and I have a theory that is Shiva.

That new video had my jaw dropping... Can't wait for this patch xD

Today is Ezio Auditore's birthday. He would have been a whopping 555 years old. Happy birthday Ezio! Requiescat in pace Ezio.

I'll only say one thing: Ishgard
/drool

(I actually just want to slap those guys for not helping with Nael and so on)

Oh and I ordered XIV for the PS3. No clue if I'll be doing good with just a controller xD

You just need to get used to it, you will be really slow at first. I've been playing with a controller since XI years ago ^^
And yuh, the downfall of many FF villains is their complete inability to co operate lol.

I'm the other way around. I'm no good with K/M. May as well be trying to push the keys with my lips. LOL

Since ARR I use the NUM-Pad to navigate through so many things, so convenient! (Mostly for going through my retainers)
Also I have quite the amount of shortcuts added and (at the moment) I feel as if a controller would restrict me quite a bit :/

I wonder if the Wireless Keyboard I once got me for playing from my bed will work with the PS3. iirc the PS3 has some problems with that ...?

@ Rubieus:
Yes, like that! ^^ Or a drawn character outline (can google those too I believe) to add something yourself.

I had no issues with mine when I was playing on PS3 :)

hmm. my retainer brought me back one extremely dangerous item...

http://i.imgur.com/XbAMBFK.jpg
all my enemies saw this will be heart-melt by its cutie-ness <3 <3 <3
I wanted this one ever since 1.0, but never had the luck. <3 my retainer.

@ Kyan: Thank you :3 I will try it! Which keyboard did you use?

@ Deli: Congrats! My retainer once brought me the fists too! Before that he once brought me the Mog-Bow :3
