*sees that it's 3 hours* Oh boy oh boy oh boy.

As a MNK main, I think the changes will be fine, but it's weird to me that Demolish will no longer be a DoT I've had for 10 years. Some of the new Riddle follow-ups… I'm interested to see how they feel how they fit in the rotation and burst window. Hey, at least we got a line AoE with 1,300 potency with 50% damage fall-off :D

"Don't stroke on stream" was such an underrated joke.

[@castoputa]

Oh VAJEENE! Now I can’t unsee it 😹

[@soldierorsomething]

Jeez that pictomancer discussion went wild (RIP FANFEST INVITE)

[@DigitsRPG]

Where is the option to choose our starting screen (and not have it reset after restart)

[@MrNick62780]

its like a car seat you have to sit in those a long time as well the gaming chair I got helped my back a lot

You know, that logo looks awfully like a Star Destroyer... we going to the only place that have not been corrupted by Loporitts! The Ionosphere! I just noticed, the names have some roots in native languages lol, nice. Urqopacha = Mountain Lands, urco = mountain, pacha = world, from quechua. Kozamauka = Hunting Forest, I think it comes from ka = forest, u usama = to spear fish in old tupi, iuka = neck break/kill. A mix of old tupi and guarani? Ihuykatumu = When the river mouth turns black or ?Black Mouth in the river?, iuru = mouth, yga = water and a flexing of una = black, to determine ?time? In nheengatu. Iam sure there will be nahuatl stuff there too but I've not spoiled myself too much yet. But Iam just probably seeing too much in it and it's just a coincidence? anyway.

Black mage's Manafont just restoring a full MP bar to continue with a second entire fire phase feels like a reduction in skill expression compared to squeezing out just a couple more fire spells than you otherwise would have. This is just a complete skip of alternating to ice phase, making the fire spam repetitiveness more apparent. I worry that it's going to make casting Fire IVs more dull and something to dread when they are making the fire phase THAT long. Alternating back to ice phase is important for keeping the rotation dynamic and interesting.

You could say the rdm sword got the Ver-gina status effect lol.

[@Rynn21]

Having yet another bahamut summon SUCKS. They didn’t even try.

[@SorasShadow1]

as a SMN main who also really likes watching how over dramatic people get online, the media tour has been good to me. i know what i want out of this game, and i know how to temper my own expectations of the crew, and frankly some folks seem to be applying actual malice to the devs when it comes to job changes they dislike so it's even tougher to take their opinions seriously. shout out to the "i've been playing FF smn since they were called Evokers" guy, whole FC got a good laugh outta that one, damn near copypasta worthy. i personally think that they probably just didn't have ideas for 3 unique egi enkindles right now, or simply that it wasn't bombastic enough for level 100.
