For the Love of the TWELVE Can We Get a Proper Elemental Wheel?

[OMEGA_HACK]

Same races was explained prior to the release of the game (sorry if you didn't play XI but we players liked them and wanted to make our characters from XI over to XIV, that was a fan based choice they made so you can get over it)

Naming structure? As in what? Mi'qote names are VERY different sounding, Roegadyn have a COMPLETELY different lore to how they make their names (Galka names were slave names from the Humes) We now get TWO names (first and sur-) so its a different player naming structure...city names are all different....NPC names are all different...idk what you mean here, grasping at straws much?

Cities all the same? Oh my maybe their location but were you expecting them to be in outerspace instead of a geographical location? lol...this quip you've made makes about as much sense as the plus sign at the end of this sentence.+ While there location might be similiar the layout is entirely different and each has a different feel about them. Also Ul'dah =/= Bastok, Bastok was a mining city built into a mountain, Ul'dah is an Oasis city in the middle of a desert. Gridania is a city on a lake, Windurst is a city in a plains-esque area, its not a forest by any means, and if you mean San d'Oria is like Gridania I would laugh even more, Gridania is a myticism-lead city while San d'Oria was a Patriarch (King) driven city.

Um...the Beastmen...please don't make me get pictures to compare what you think are the same, because they don't look anything alike, the CLOSEST looking ones would be the Amalj'aa and the Mamool Ja. But sadly the closest resemblance to each other is the 'a' sound at the end of their names...

So again I ask, where is all this copy-pasta? Because it'sa makin' me hungry.

Omg, Ul'dah is in the middle of a dessert? O_o I wonder how it tastes. . .

Hehe.
Anyways, I agree, I don't understand what that person is talking about. There are some FFXI inspired things in FFXIV but, is that really a bad thing?
Is it so bad that FF is sometimes inspired by WoW? (btw I haven't played WoW but, I have watched my best friend play it and didn't think it was so bad at all. A little too easy I admit but, not bad)

I was halfway through typing up a big reply with examples and everything and then I remembered this Cracked article and I said "f*** it". You win, there's no copy-pasta in FFXIV, cya later.

First of all, that article slightly discouraged me from bringing up an issue with the whole "blowing out a candle" concept. Second of all, I have a friend who tried to make a character called Pinkie Pie, so kudos for making him rage when it was taken XD


Regardless. There is a serious issue with the whole candle argument. To anyone who knows anything about chemistry, when you light a candle what is actually burning is the vaporized wax. Yes the wick burns, but its more or less just a place to hold the flame. The heat from the flame turns the wax into a liquid, and then to a gas, which then burns like any other petroleum vapor. By blowing on the candle, you are simply moving it away from its fuel source. You can confirm this theory by using the candle trick. You can do a similar experiment by using two candles instead of a match.

If you were to "blow your flame" to a new fuel source (something flammable enough), like say, that string confetti everyone loves, or the drapes, or the paper box the cake comes in, or someone's hair; you'd quicky learn why fire loves wind. While there is some merit to the notion that strong enough wind anything can put out a fire, you can also extinguish a fire by dropping a load of ice on it. Or dirt, or water, or even gasoline if there is a large enough quantity to prevent the fire from breathing.

It's just a matter of using what makes the most sense. (A hint: not wind)

And yet the heat from a fire can boil away water and fire cannot burn in a vacuum... Either one makes just as much sense as the other.

In the end, who really cares? This is a silly argument.
