Coerthas is pretty bad. The only saving grace of that place is Haurchefant. And let me tell you, you WILL love him back.

I still haven't gotten around to purchasing the Heavensward expansion. Hopefully sooner rather than later, my Mi'qote White Mage will venture to new lands. I recommend you do, the newest update is coming in about a couple of weeks, adding new story, dungeons and the like. Although I have yet to hit Heavensward right now. Also Something tells me you would like the Astrologian Class.

Edit- Also going back to the topic of Version 1.0, were you there on the day where the servers went down, being there in the final moments as the moon was falling, and the End of Era started playing? How did you feel? As a non-player I feel the need to ask - what is the story behind this? Because as written it sounds as if devs did a colony drop on the setting between versions Well, basically this, since Version 1.0 was busted beyond all saving, and took it upon themselves to rebuild the game from scratch, Square decided to release the final story mission for V1.0, where the moon was slowly descending to the earth. It didnt matter what you did during those final hours, the moon kept falling in real time, at the same time, a woman with a haunting melody can be heard in the background. As as you can imagine, players from around, stuck around for those final moments, its kinda like sitting around for the end of the world. People, friends, players, sitting around waiting for death. And when the countdown finally was over, players were greeted with this. Apart from this being the most prettiest piece of eye candy Square has put out to date, this was a graceful way to bow out from a bad performance. The game was going offline, and Square puts so much effort into setting their game on fire, and was it an amazing fire to look at. I've been harsh to Square many times in my life, but the way they handled the termination of V1.0 and A Realm Reborn was MASTERFULLY done.

so.....I just did the Coil of Bahamut.....and by did, I mean got Mega/Terra Flared to the face, and spent 80% of the fight on the floor while others did the work for me. Which makes me feel terrible, cause 1) I feel like dead weight (I hate when I'm useless) and 2) I didnt really get a chance to learn any of the mechanics, how to avoid Mega Flare or Terra Flare, etc. I felt like I once again didnt deserve that victory. Hopefully, i'm able to carry myself when i get to the Crystal Tower.

Gilgamesh is where it's at. Loads of useful players waiting to help you. If you can get in. I fought Gilgamesh an hour ago. I died at the end. We still won though.

So yeah. Final Fantasy XIV Discussion Thread. YAY. (Look, I'm not very good at creating topics) So, any FFXIV players around here? If so come on in, tell us some stories, whether be it your first time playing through the game, something interesting during Dungeons or Raids? Or Hell, maybe you've been there since Version 1.0 and been around to see what the game used to be. What was that like? As for me? I'm currently a LV. 50+ Black Mage. na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/13564821/So... yeah? Comments? Thoughts? Stories? Feel free. Edit- Also going back to the topic of Version 1.0, were you there on the day where the servers went down, being there in the final moments as the moon was falling, and the End of Era started playing? How did you feel? Edit2- Oh and for all intents and purposes, I play on the Excalibur server

Oh yeah, I remember Beastmaster. OH MAN, Beastmaster 2 is a pile of crap. I am so sorry that you'll have to watch it Mike.
Edit- Its pretty much on the same level as Highlander for me, a flawed classic, marred into mediocrity by terrible sequels.

Wish Granted. Unfortunately, this means Luke finally snapping and killing everyone. Thus Episode 9 was canceled.
I wish Kojima actually finished MGSV as he intended. (Again, too real. I know.)

From someone whose cleared this game several times, lemme give ya some 2 cents. Gameplay is great. Its basically FFV, which is my favorite FF. The Job System is robust and the ability selection is expansive, if youre the experimental type, I imagine you'll have a fun time. The Brave and Default System a welcome mechanic that can add strategy to your play or save you from an extreme life or death situation. Music? HOLY BALLS. ITS AMAZING. Composed by Revo of Sound Horizon, your ears will melt from auditory ecstasy. Dont believe me? look up Loves Vagrant (You'll thank me later). Artstyle gorgueous, Akihiko Yoshida seems to be that guy that seems to GET fantasy (also the thighs on the females he draws, yum....But thats a another story), he doesnt go overboard like a certain other Square Enix artist, and fits the game just right. Story?.......eh.......this is where things get messy. Like Scuttlest says, after Chapter 4, the pace GRINDS to a halt (emphasis on the word grind). Granted its optional, (unlike the vanilla JP version), but its a nasty blemish on a great game. Characters? Its subjective. you'll either love em or despise em. I personally cant stand Agnes, and you'll see why. And there ya have it, is the game worth picking up? Absolutely. Do so. You want a fresh but familiar JRPG with tried and true mechanics while also bringing something new to the table? Dig in. Anyone reading this, who may want to try out this game for themselves, JUST DO IT.
Edit-Also with Bravely Second coming out next year, you might want to jump in pretty soon.
