crap, i missed that.

Seems it still is, though they must have ran out of the PS4 version. PC is 9.99 on amazon.com atm, which is cheaper than a month of sub it comes with. But you need to buy the box so delivery might be kinda meh.

Been playing Drakengard 3 lately and I had the thought that they should add in a Zero costume/DK Zero sword.

Then I remembered that it's not Final Fantasy.

Seriously, I think they should get Yoko Taro and the rest of the Drakengard/Nier gang on the next Final Fantasy game. They have really interesting and unique ideas imo for stories and characters and how to present them so I'd like to see them work on the next game with an actual budget and QA.

 

[Aselith]

They should totally throw references from other Square games into FF14. I would love a little windup Ehrgeiz to follow me around or some Jensen shades to put on. Imagine the /visor with those things on.

 

[dcye]

There was an event for Dragon Quest X last year some time, so there's precedent.

Damn... I am planning on getting the game sometime soon(hopefully by this upcoming friday), but even if this sale is still going by then, i'll probably be too impatient to wait for shipping.

Random drive by, as I know Unknown Soldier is always here...

You should be playing PSO2 so you can truly live out your dreams of being Ilya!

Only 6 days left until

Sure, let me know when they release it in North America.

That's Miyu btw

Second batch of new actions screenshots.

Edit:
Sorry, my mistake.

 

[TastyOreoFriend]

finally preordered heavensward on ps4. its kind of cool the theme they give you for preordering. im guessing thats the theme of ishgard.in the background. its really not helping my hype level.

i suppose more turn 10 so i can not get my aiming earring will help that.

 

[Thoraxes]

Wow, just finished the ARR story.

Holy shit. And watching this Heavensward video? Just amazing. So fucking good.

Now it's just less than a week to the best birthday present; the Heavensward early access!

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Guess I should farm Brayflox for the rest of that tank gear. Can't even motivate myself to get poetics or attempt to farm 13 for shiny new toys.

 

[SliceSabre]

THE STRUGGLE IS OVER I HAVE FINALLY BEATEN TURN 5

Went DF and I knew something was up because everyone else in the group seemed to be preforming in a very particular way. Probably a FC helping out one of their own since many of them had dreadwyrm items.

Either way! HELL YES

You thought that was a struggle?

 

[TastyOreoFriend]

done it in the duty finder lately? the struggle is real my dude.

helped a friend who wanted to do it through DF the other day and people still dont "get" divebombs

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Very very few bother with Coil, of course Turn 5 and friends would be difficult. Mechanics are fun!

 

[dcye]

A group of me and 4 friends DF'd a bunch of T5 the other day and just "carried" loads of people through haha. Well, some were carries, others were just people who couldn't find the right group through df. We did it for like 2 hours. I like doing stuff like that. So many comms for my terrible WHM'ing.

 

[Aselith]

Yeah, I did it in the DF. I'm saying Second Coil is about to make his Dutyfinding ass its bitch.

I wonder how many players defeated T13 now that we have the Echo bonus (and no weekly limitations whatsoever - I will really miss that...).

You can see people celebrating their clears on reddit every once in a while. I think it's a safe assumption to say that Echo helped some low-end groups to push through.

IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR 1017.

 

[Dragner]

Been playing this game for a month. Having a blast, already prepurchased HW and resub for 3 months. Game is that good. First time in Cristal Tower with the FF3 music and enemies. DEM FEELS.

 

[DarknessTear]

IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR 1017.

I've been hype for 1017 for the past month or so. My body is ready.

 

[lewisgone]

I realise that this is probably the worst time to start playing an MMO (before an expansion) but I finished my backlog and am really looking forward to getting into this now (bought the collectors edition last month, big FF fan).

Applied for the free company and am looking forward to playing with you all...once I'm done levelling, probably.

[Kudo]

Started clearing the main quest line before Heavensward launches and I have to say it's pretty exhausting. On my way to open up Snowcloak and then fun times with completely new dungeon for me.

New Paladin action: use Miqo'te as shield.

 

[Dandte]

isn't she missing a tail? But i woud love to to this, every catgirl bard is more than worthy to be my shield.

It's still a good time to start, in my opinion. I started two weeks ago. I re-rolled the character I originally started with the free trial and yesterday I joined the GAF FC on Ultros and did my first dungeons. (They were fun!)

I'm holding off on buying the expansion though because there's not much of a point til I finish the original game's stuff.

 

[Valor]

After seeing that picture I almost regret not maining Paladin.

 

[isual]

t13 is no joke. my guild's almost done with it, and almost had it around 1 percent hp. or was it 5?

hopefully they'll get it down this week before the 19th.


did anyone order HW from bestbuy? I still have not received my june 19th code for EA

 

[Frumix]

Why do people in Crystal Tower on American DCs do this weird thing where they all split into parties and run into positions around the boss for ten minutes instead of just pulling from the front?

 

[lazybones18]

I like this idea

the sooner we get rid of them, the better

 

[JoeyJungle]

So I've put in maybe 12-15 hours, I'm level 20 in two classes (PUG and ROG), and the story is still barely getting started and it's not that interesting yet, but I'm still constantly thinking about this game. I don't know why, but this game has really grabbed me. I've played almost all of the FF games (almost none to completion), and the things that the game chooses to reference are just all the right things, and it doesn't do it the way Blizzard constantly goes "HAHAHA YEAH YOU LIKE THAT LEROY JENKINS SO DO WE HAHAHA GOOD TIMES", but instead it gives you a wink and a nudge and is just kinda "Hey, remember that thing from that game? That was cool."

Anyway, are servers really gonna be offline all day the 18th?

 

[Alucrid]

so what exactly needs to be done to access the expansion content. really don't want to do any ex primals or coil

Yes, they'll be offline all day. Early access on the 19!

You need to finish the 2.55 storyline (Before the Dawn is the last quest). Coil and Ex Primals are optional.

 

[suzu]

All the main story quests. It probably won't take that long if you don't care about watching cutscenes.

I wish they put a link to the pixiv pages for all the artists participating in this.

I'm looking forward to the fact that no one will be over-geared. Which means the new dungeons should retain difficulty for a while.

 

[suzu]

I'm pretty sure the artists are all from SE's art team.
