Barbariccia got me barking

[Raoabolic]

A FF4 boss from 1991 is a spoiler in 2022? Get a grip.

I guess i'm just the outlier once again. Barbariccia looks VERY different from her IV origins.

It's not a spoiler because saying a characters name with no context happens all the time. Like all the furnishings and NPC minions like Ryne.

This has always been how I look at spoilers: it’s not a spoiler without context.

But for some people, just mentioning the character model has green pixels on it is enough to qualify as a spoiler.

Considering how fast and loose XIV reuses character names from other games with the character in question being nothing like the original, I just don’t see how the name alone really qualifies as a spoiler.

A simple solution would be to put the word "Spoiler" in the title while hiding the name, and then stating whatever you want down below. This way nobody will complain.

Everyone saying "But how would I know it's a spoiler?"...The patch notes. The patch notes tell you it is.

"New Trial: ???"

Also, saying "Well the patch only takes a couple hours so it's no big deal, just do it" is just asinine and selfish. People have jobs, families and lives they need to attend to before games. Just because you can no-life doesn't mean everyone can. At least wait a week to post explicit spoilers, common courtesy.

Ah yes, people have jobs, families, and they need to build an Arkh and worlds tallest building, but they have time to go to forums on patch day, hate when it happens to me.

some people are just looking for reasons to complain, not much we can do about those.

Two of the Four Fiends offed in a single patch.... Welp, the Void storyline is getting solved before 7.0. Pity, it could stand to be great. But nope, nothing but feel-goods in MY FINAL FANTASY says Yoshi-dono.

For those curious but missed it, the side quest that become available in Radz-at-Han after completing 6.2 MSQ gives the FFXIV origins of the 2 defeated fiends (and strongly implies there will be additional quests in future patches with more fiend backstory).

The fiend story line will be. It's hard to say that the void storyline will be. We already know that patch 6.5 is going to set the stage for 7.0 with some sort of major event. Maybe it's the voidsent escaping into the Source after a failure to contain control over the portal.

She starts out the same pretty much. Then shifts hard into the XIV unique stuff. But that's what Yoshi P does. Success coasts with past ideas and turns them into something different.

SAME BUT DIFFERENT BUT STILL SAME.

I expect once we beat the 4 Fiends we are gonna get a Geryon fight.

I have an office job. Browsing the forums while staring at network logs isn't that hard for me...its a great time killer during patch updates as well. I'd imagine this is true for a lot of people that browse the forums during the work day.

With Zero and her I feel like saying the dark world is only filled with super sexy women or what?
Really in the top of the most beautiful characters <3 <3 <3

OP ignores those who cry spoilers when your topic has none, a boss name is not a spoiler but there are some who just want to complain for the sake of complaining that's all

Just a side note... I knew she was coming because of obvious Scarmiglione on the trailer, but I thought she wouldn't be seen so soon.

I got spoiled on her presence because when I opened the vendor to trade an Aglaia coin, her name was right there on the weapon menu lol.
