Heck they even trimmed the fat recently from the Realm Reborn stories (looking at you, Titan banquet) but its still kind of bloated. 

Yoshida is very transparent about everything he does on XIV, I doubt they’d tell a fib about the server and chip shortage. It’s just the reality of the moment — I heard they even tried to pay above market price for equipment and still couldn’t secure the hardware.

My rough critique is that overall I loved Endwalker. It has some odd pacing issues at times and some odd story beats but those are easily forgivable for the final zone.

All I could think of during this scene was the meme “Can I haz cheezburger?” 

I’m a huge fan of FF XIV and Yoshida. MMORPG’s having launch woes is par for the course and not unexpected.

I noticed this! But once I got a slew of 2002's back to back and lost my spot.  Was sad times. :( 

Been playing DPS since 2.x.

Welcome to “problems we don’t want to solve” because this is an issue that gets people to the polls. Its political milking entirely and done by both parties.

So the Pikachu vagina will not be making a return to this event? 

I’m still baffled the game launched without Wonder Trading and the Global Trade system online with no ETA yet.

Can someone who is more intune with the business world answer a question I’ve had for awhile?

Taking a huge stab in the dark here so I could be flat out wrong.

But ORAS had some amazing new QOL features, plus the really incredible Delta Episode.

Same. I like it, I like what it has to offer, but playing it on a touch screen is impossible and I find myself hitting wrong buttons even with remapping the screen and controls.

Was able to get Vine Island today — it gave me a bunch of vines to pilfer and glowing moss. The bottle on the island even had a DIY “Suspicious Cauldron” recipe, so that was cool!

You could also say that Overwatch wasn’t even completely “original” since a lot of the assets, ideas, characters and art direction was taken from Project Titan.

Have to agree. They’ve also become so popular and so large that they’ve probably turned more toward ‘research’ and ‘specialists’ on what people want and listen more to that than what they would do on their own creatively.

The only way I can see this being effective is the following:

I mean I see his point.

I wish it was simple as getting the popular vote up, but the problem is getting people in red states to understand that the GOP are not looking out for them, but the problem is the GOP has turned it into “I’m bad but at least I’m not a liberal” and it fucking works. This is why you don’t see a ton of split tickets…
