Final Fantasy XIV Hot Takes

[BRVV]

And the ARR beast tribes can eat a lot of that allowance if someone wishes to speed that up, as toward the later ranks you can do 9 of their quests per day.

If you do quests from lower ranks you will get less progress. It doesn't speed the whole thing up, it slows it down.

There is also the matter of rank ups, especially from heavensward onward, where the player is given 3 additional quests to complete so a player has to sacrifice what would have been 3 quests for another beast tribe for the one they are working on that day.

Instead of doing 4 tribes, 3 quests each, you simply do 3 tribes. Not that hard. When you rank up and are below 7 you can take 3 more quests on the same day.

If one wishes to slightly speed that up, they would need to know about the mainteance and how it resets the dailies.

Knowing when daily reset is doesn't speed things up unless you happen to have spent less than 2 when reset hits. It's the normal daily reset time. You can look at it at "timer".

Having just redone it on an alt; the Loporrit section of the Endwalker MSQ is really no worse than dealing with the moogles, namazu, or pixies in previous expansions. Certainly a lot faster than dealing with the Moghome moogles, at least.

[Denji]

i hate moogles.
particularly their creepy little fingers. why do they have to have fingers.

Deep Dungeons are the laziest form of content. Randomly generated floors, rehashes of every enemy you've seen before, and the bosses are just old things you've fought with a new mechanic cycle.

we need a T pose emote that does nothing else. An emote where you go into T pose for 3 seconds and do nothing while T posing, staring blankly into the souls of those around you

actual hot take: I would appreciate if top surgery scars were an option during customization

Dang, pretty Spicy

honestly probably asking for a bit much considering we don't even have ANY body scar or tattoo customization, as nice as such options would be...

i don't think wanting to more accurately portray your character in-game is a hot take

I find Emet-Selch annoying, deeply unlikable, and I think his extended presence (among other things in the Elpis storyline...) made for a worse EW experience.

While i don't dislike Emet (i liked him as a villain in ShB), I do dislike some of the stuff they did with him. Making it that he was one of our closest friends in a previous life, all the "see he's not a bad guy, he's just grumpy" shit in Elpis (I hate the scene where we're forced to beg him for help "Please, Emet-Selch." ugh my wol would not have gone along with that shit.) and the way they basically force your wol to like him, like all the terrible shit he did is just forgiven and now he's just your slightly grumpy uncle giving you a travel bucket list. Yet another "redeemed" villain to throw in the pile.

For my own hot take, I also dislike a lot of the Ancient shit in general. The Pandaemonium raids are a prefect example. I just don't give a shit about what's going on and want everyone to just shut up. Like what does any of this shit have to do with me? Who are you people? No, I don't care about your daddy issues, Eric. Only story content I've been tempted to skip. We never should have gone back to Elpis. It should have been one and done for the story. Now we have even more time travel shit to deal with, and it was already questionable in EW MSQ.

The only Ancient thing I even really like is Hythlodaeus, and even then he just showed up, looked pretty, was funny and once all was said and done I barely ever thought about him again.
