So, what did you do in-game today?

This was last night (I haven't logged in yet since), BUT!
I WENT AND SAW AN FFXIV THEATRE IN MY SERVER!

It was... SO GOOD. It was crazy. How they had everyone line up (I had flashbacks to Raubahn Ex) and there were like... easily over 100 people lined up up from their door to around their lot, down the steps from their lot and into the area where the MB was.

Because there were so many people lined up, they had to do multiple runs (and this was an hour long show with a 10m intermission). My friend and I ended up waiting in line for over an hour but was so worth it. Once we were in, it was... I want to say... "just like" the real deal. Their ushers wore black as they're supposed to. They changed the lighting and music throughout the play at deliberate points. They changed up the setting like they would IRL with the most detailed/intricate setting all the way in the back, and then they could more easily change the front really quickly. And they Eorzeanfied the script, so it felt very immersive to FFXIV. Ugh. I love it. Then and there, I was so glad I had moved to my current server (Diabolos/Crystal). They even had some people from other worlds acting, too. It was just very... super! Here is a collection of very poorly taken screenshots.

One of my FC mates Is in that show and part of the troupe. I didn't get to go to this one, though. They showed a screenshot of their hotbars and it is insane how they do it.

That's very cool! It's too bad you weren't able to come, I think pretty much everyone really enjoyed it. All the actors and crew members were totally in tune with each other, the transitions seemed fairly seamless. One could tell they'd been rehearsing for... quite a while. I hope you get to go to the next one, whenever that is! Maybe I'll meet you in line! xD

And yeah, when they first starting giving out their scripts and animating at the same time, I figured they had to be using macros and that they must have had a load of them on hotbars. Like, I can imagine it... but I suspect it would even crazier to see. xD


Incredible stuff. Just... wow! (Excuse me. It's been nearly 24 hours but I'm still swooning. I think this is easily the best FFXIV memory I have now. xD People like them really make the game, I think.)

Okay, I'm done. (I think.) /Breathes XDDD
