I have been waiting for this since Preach started FFXIV. I always hoped one day he'd get to sit down with the man, himself, and do a real interview. I was not disappoint. It was exactly what I hoped for: 2 MMO vets discussing the game and genre from their own unique POVs.

20:33 Yes, exactly like you with palette! Lmfao sorry couldn't help myself

I've played hide and seek in final fantasy. It was really fun. I love the in game events. I feel like I only see advertisments for RP venues anymore. I really loved the days when you'd line up for something in game and just rp being in a line for things. The people who used to do that have automated things for twitch chats to farm engagement now and that takes away from the experience even if it's supposed to make it easier for people so they can do other things. I stood in line for over an hour once for idk what and it was a play and it was cool and fun.

Same for summoner and scholar. Straight up removed the entire pet system, made carbuncles and fairies a cosmetic on the battlefield with minimal usage because some people do not know how to play those jobs. Same for Astrologians and their card system, because people did not know when to use their cards at the right time.

Zepla watching everyone's videos like she wasn't there herself

I like long cast times, makes me feel like I got away with something. Also usually makes big number happen. Unga bunga.

The playing in dark being bad for youe eyes is a myth. It may cause a little more strain on your eyes causing them to be a bit sore but does not cause any long term issues.

After society recovers from an apocolyps they are gonna find one of these compasses and be like "where is tural?" And it will either be US, Japan, India, or Egypt but no one will know what any other place was called if theres no books for it so ppl will be searching for the lost city of tural 😂😂

Chat bubbles!

16:22 Jesse told us 😂

I appreciate your sacrifice... I am much more excited by double dyes than by new job actions or new jobs...

Seto?!?!?!?! Now I'm broken again. 😭😭😭

It would have been nice if just one person that got an interview had inquired where the devs' heads are at regarding the future of healer design.

20:12 I'm pretty sure naming it jungle cruise will get you a letter from Disney

I prefer to play games ina well lit room or with soft lighting from faerie lights and salt rock lamps. Playing in the dark, for me at least, was not great for my mental health and just didn't feel cozy.

I want that compass!

Zepla asks what else they could add, I say _literally_ just _one_ other job that uses blunt weapons other thank MNK. Personally, I've been waiting for a hammer wielder that specialises in stuns, and maybe even knock-backs.

To ask for permission is to seek denial. We're not in elementary school, just assume handouts are handouts and not returnables.

Ihuykatumu Eee - Hueee - Ka - Too - Moo

Pictomancer makes my noob tank brain melt 🤤

mike plays picto like zepla plays hutao

15:40 --- I always wonder about people who play their games or watch anything on a screen in total darkness. Its one of the things I hate about cinemas: they are dark XD Turn on the lights! XD You dont see more, its not prettier, it just hurts your eyes - at it hurts mine ^^° 18:29 --- If he wants to go for a statement, violet would be the complementary color to yellow. If he wanted to go for a more "muted" statement, orange or green would do the trick. Or black, if he wants to say "I'm an angry wasp - bzbzbz" . Color theory! XD 53:15 --- Sure, HE was busy, but his stream-checkers werent XD Beware... purity XD 1:10:42 --- Not sure what to think about that suggestion... about different mob packs and deciding as tank how many you pull. That is not only the tanks decision: the healer still has to watch your back and the dps have to kill things before you run out mitigation. I see a lot of dungeon-drama incomming: healers and dps that push an inexperianced tank and who flame if they wipe, a rushing tank who leaves behind his team and flames if they are too slow... These are just the classic scenarios. Personally, I'd rather have a predictable dungeon experience over that kind of drama. And I havent even touched on the bs that is "ypyt"... 1:13:08 --- Sorry to break this to you but you can enjoy FF14 and at the same time have an aversion against anime ^.^

Mike doesn't like Anime? Has he tried Death Note? I just think it's cool.

the dungeons are a predictable amount of time? Tell that to the one Aurum Vale party I had that took, no joke, 48 minutes to complete the run.

Didn’t she go like everyone else? Is there a reason for some things she’s saying it as if she didn’t do it or know ?

i wish he would invite random unknown players to see him and ask questions, people thats been around day 1, im happy for anyone who gets to talk with him, but i think its unfair when someone who hasn't been around since the beginning gets to only get invited. im not trying to hate, but i think random long time players should get a chance, even if its not even me, i would love to see any random long term player.

XIV has had chat bubbles for years! All you have to do is open Dalmund settings and......

I appreciate the devs having chat bubbles and double dyes. I just don't like the fact it took them this long to do it when chat bubbles were something that can be done through 3rd party tools, and 2 toned equipment have been in the game for years on various pieces, but locked only on the developer's side.

Irrelevant ahh
