Embarrassing confessions-

[Nioh]

Oh I have so much ;-; buuuut I'll only mention three:

1. As a noob, I had a company tabard. I thought it was useless and ugly so I discarded it. I didn't know you could sell it on mb or vendor or put it in glam dresser :')
2. The many many times I've stood at the edge of platforms and accidentally press forward while facing the way you fall out of/deathwall. (I walk using legacy)
3. Not getting the Miner's guild aetheryte until like...6 months after I started? I definietly knew how to navigate Ul'dah after that ;-;

There's enough of this FEM ROE to go around.

Well I'll leave that to others .

And it's not a disliking roe thing either, females just aren't for me

I was joking around in chat and some short fuse dude started a kick vote right at the end of Praetorium. I really think you need to rethink the kick rules if some "Little Prince" gets his way because your typing during cut scenes too much.

I almost want to quit the game.

For whatever dumb ass reason I used to think unspoiled gathering nodes for Miner and Botanist would go away if someone beat me to them. I didn't think they were only client side for some reason. I used to get really upset at people who were already gathering at the node. And at people who came to the nodes after I was there first. Didn't actually SAY anything to them though. So that's great. But uh yeah... I'm am dumb.

Found out that you could set a couple of mounts as your favourite. Been opening the mount tab to select my favourites for like 3 months now.

I've been playing for roughly 6-7 months with the camera zoomed in on my character. Somehow, I managed to survive for the most part. Then came Titan EX (Pony farming with friends) and I'm always off the platform cause I can't see the hecking landslides.

So after like hundreds of runs, we all get our earthly ponies.

4 months later, I find out that I can zoom out the screen.

Oh god....I did this for months when I first started too. I had no idea how people were seeing half the aoe tells and whatnot. My friends had a pretty good laugh at my expense when they found out. :P

You only get kicked if half the group agrees they dont want you. Yeah im sure there are some people who just click without looking or caring and some people only que in groups so they can "control" this sort of thing, but for the most part you dont get sent away unless you annoyed/offended most of the group. Or for being afk/offline.

I once had a huge crush on a poster here. They don't come around anymore though and we never actually talked to each other either. Their posts always got my undivided attention and was always a good read.

That's actually a wonderful thing and definitely not embarrassing. Honestly, I can emphasize-- virtually all the really great English posters I used to like reading have either left the game or haven't posted in years. Only ones left that I now keep up with are all on the Japanese and French forums now.

Whenever I get into a duty, I scan all the players for catbois and only check those out and see if I like them. I do the same anywhere else in the game anyway, and whenever they click on me, I quickly press ESC and waddle away. (I never approach people first ; w ; )
I also tend to start crafting something, and the moment I complete the craft I noticed I forgot to switch on Collectable crafting. I uh... Do this literally every time.

When I was new to the game, I had no idea where to get my mount. People kept saying around level 20, but I never got it (back then side-quest with a +-marker weren't a thing) so I just assumed my character had a bug/glitch and I could never obtain a mount, so I went through ARR and HW without a mount until people pointed out I had to do a company quest. .-.

I was thinking that all node were server-side at start. Developed it isn't right away though, but still. Also, for first few days of playing I thought that all interaction items in quests (like getting apples from trees or such) are server-side too, so I rushed to them to collect before other would reach them. That was a thing in other MMOs I played so it was kind of a reflex out of experience I guess.

This reminds me... I count all the male Miqo'te I meet (especially Moon Keepers) in Main Scenario and Side Story quests. In content before Shadowbringers, at least.
