    Limsa lost its bite?

    This is a semi-serious (possibly semi-coherent) post, but I feel like Limsa Lominsa has lost its identity a bit.

    It used to be a pirate haven: the Marauder's guild was on a ship, and the class quests left you in no doubt that you were a pirate,a back-stabbing, gear stealing pirate at that. Now the Marauders are what? A poor man's Paladin? All the pirates have been disbanded and made to work the land.

    And now the rogues are going to be goody two-shoes robin hood types? They can't even be thieves because that sounds mean.

    Even the namby-pamby people from Ul'dah (Ul'Dahnians? Ul'Dha-ites? Ul'Danians?) can claim to be butcher than Limsans. This needs changing.

    My spear has a few things to say about your viewpoints on other nations.

    There is something to say about holding back your bluster and striking when you know the blow will land true.


    As far as Mauraders and Rogues, nothing of Limsa's identity has been lost. There's still poor saps mugged plainly in the streets. If you can't hand the fact that some thieves have honor, you might be in the wrong series.

    Probably true.

    Makes sense, since Levi was a threat for a long long while.

    Basically, if you were given the option of bending the rules and making a fortune rather than breaking them making a bit of a profit and landing in gaol, what would you choose?

    Yeah, but your sea shanties are honestly sub-par.

    Spoken like a man scared of The Man.

    'sides I've been in gaol loads of times, as long as the DPS don't break you out during landslide it's not a big deal.

    Not scared of anything, I just prefer profit and luxury.
