>>1536890
Man, you really are the femra rizzler.

>>1537135
I suppose it would be more accurate to describe you as the femra victim, considering the previous one was a bit rapey, and the new one is a stalker.

>>1537167
Damn, not only victimised by femras, but also by image compression. I will pray for you.

>>1537170
Marry green raen, she looks dependable.
Fuck green xaela, she looks fun.
Kiss grey raen, she looks soft.
Kill blue xaela, she's ugly (face 3).

>>1540801
I think the closest we'll get to that is bimbo shit.

I'm quite happy with the new hair added with Chaotic Alliance Raid. After both of the two other contest winners that were added to game were such flops ("It Takes Two" has a weird hairline, whilst "Doing The Wave" looks like seaweed + has a weird hairline), I was worried. I wondered if perhaps the developers were rushing out hairstyles to meet the quota of more rewards, at the expense of the quality of the hair. However, my fears have been assuaged by the new hair. It looks accurate to the contest picture, and more importantly, it looks good. Here's hoping that the two first hairs were just flukes.

>>1540938
>Wow that is actually a good looking Miqo'te
It kind of looks like Macchi's miqo'te, especially in terms of color scheme, which is what you praised... I remember when you would confess your love for him through vocaroos. I guess old flames are never truly extinguished <3

>>1537128
missed opportunity to say lizzer rizzer baka

never thought i'd find db curled up in here

>>1546114
Wow, even Deva and Dream's Bass want Samsara. He truly can't get a break.

>>1546114
Did you see that you got awarded Ebin of the Year? Congrats!

>>1547058
Curious about Utheas. Everyone who knows her loves her, whilst she's neutral about them. And all three of them hate eachother. She seems like the sort of character that's the center of drama.

>>1544292
I got villainized bcoz I talked to you, those drama seekers always bringing it up when they wanna roast me lol
but it doesn't matter a single bit, you've shown a side of you that I liked, thanks to you and some others it feels like Im finally growing as a person
glad to see you doing well and full of determination still!

>>1547546
Who are you? I am sorry that they even subjected you to that.

>>1547585
hehe dont worry about it, ill just keep being a secret admirer
the sentiment is genuine though

>>1547322
I'm going to say it. Deva is prettier than Nirvana and pulls of dresses better.

these are unironically the best femras I have seen

>>1548653
He's sexier than the original Samsara. Facial hair really does wonders for the male face.

>>1549201
Jolly merry!

/vg/ has been talking about vaginal discharge for hours and of course there’s no moderation. I guess I’m stuck here. Do you still play the game DB? Also, can you do us a solid and run that bitch out again? You know, the one with the roast beef?

What happened to nicexivg?

>found an expansion of DB lore
Nice

>>1549829
Cute <3

Merry Christmas, DB

The Cloud of Darkness (Chaotic) is so fast paced. I don't know if I'll be able to learn it.

>>1550746
The mechanics happen in a random order, so I have to react to everything on the fly. Just gotta git gud I guess. I will try learning from Youtube POVS though.

>>1550744
>I don't know if I'll be able to learn it.
I am able. I can now execute P1 fairly consistently, and even the beginning of P2.

>>1553816
You really do have a thing for stalkers.

a happy new year to these warriors of light!

>>1557500
Happy new year!

we forgive you db

I haven't played XIV since Endwalker came out but is it really worth getting Dawntrail since it's on sale? I haven't heard anything good about it though.

>>1550746
I cleared today! P1 is very fun and fast-paced, but P2 is exhausting to prog. I'm not sure how I feel about body checks in 24-man content.

is there anywhere we can talk about the mobile version that is coming out? the /vg/ is just lonely people roleplaying and making 100 threads a day, it's just sad
it seems that the game will be good, but I wonder why they did this to ffxiv when they could've done it with ffxi and relaunch that game instead of cannibalizing ff14
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueZH4uttStY

>>1566047
yeah, I didn't play ff14 but it's undoubtedly a big success, this mobile version feels like a "wow classic" moment and the gameplay will catch a lot of people by surprise because people always think that mobile games are gacha scams, but this seems to be a real, complete, mmo.
it's made in unreal engine 4 by tencent using the art assets from the pc game, it's looking great, but I wish they went for ffxi instead because that game is almost dead, a relaunch would make more sense.

wow > ziv

I hope ffxiv mobile gets it's own general and it's filled with people that actually want to play the game and do the content instead of just a bunch of old men trying to erp each other.

it is such a shame that they went for FFXIV mobile instead of FFXI. It could have been great to experience this game in a new engine with 2025 QoL, there's probably so much story and raids and fun in that game since it's so old.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeXYy8nJopo

>>1573450
xi remake be nice but im not playing a mmo on a fucking phone

>>1574042
just use an emulator, or learn to set up a vm, it's really not hard.
I wouldn't play on a phone either

>>1574057
no i mean i dont want to play it on principle because i dont trust it to not immediately turn to dog shit

>>1574058
it'll follow the exact same story of ffxiv

>>1573430
Back together?

>>1581113
oof, that's not a flattering picture of samsara

i hate playing with tanks that run as fast as they can to pull as large of a group as they can without any care for whether or not they're staying within range of the healer so fucking much. yeah you're saving so much time when we wipe twice because i'm incapable of healing you since you ran too far from me. you're really impressing bitches by causing multiple wipes in a pre-HW dungeon with a healer who hasn't played that dungeon before

Any servers with good guilds?

Preferably not roleplay focused because I am absolutely not interested in that

Inshallah, I pray that the court finds that Yzilma is guilty tomorrow. May he go to jail.

Is this a game where I can play as a party and do story quests together?

>>1590870
You can definitely play with friends and it's more fun to do so

Expectation: Oh wow, XIV is offering free days! I'm going to play and finish all the stuff I missed in those 4 days!

Reality: Oh god I fucking forgot how to play the game and I have to redo all my bars and settings because it's a new machine

How do I get a femra EB?

>>1591176
>Post your HUD setup NOW.
isnt there maintenance

>>1591180
I set it to this at the moment. I'm returning and I want to have an easy time so I'll likely roll with SMN until I unlock viper and change to that.

Maint is soon and it's late so I'll power through story tomorrow.

why can't there ever be a thread where people are normal and not posting shit like >>1573430

I just want to talk about the game and how Xbox version is pure kino.

>>1591494
Because we have faggots talking about thread meta rather than making a difference and actually acting out what they want to see.

the only thing that annoys me about xbox is not being able to chat with my party cause i don't have a keyboard to plugin, but otherwise its pretty good.

>>1591499
https://a.co/d/hYuNOIG
Here’s a good keyboard that you can use for the XBOX. It comes with a touchpad too.

>>1591503
now i just need to wait for payday, ty anon. Although I'd probably be better off with a keyboard that connects below the controller so i didn't have to constantly put the controller down to type.

>>1591504
Probably this one then for sure.
https://a.co/d/gv4xpzI
It’s backlit too so it has use at night. Fingers might be cramped though.

>>1591494
It's still far better than the main XIV thread where it's 100% shitposting. I'm not interested in roleplaying or posing either but it is nice to have a thread to post about the game.

>>1591548
true, anyways, as far as my free trial is going on my xbox, just got to 31 on my archer, really enjoying xbox version more then PC,

>>1591548
the namefag may be retarded but I am forever grateful he necrobumps this blog thread

>>1591553
I like PC version more than console because having a Keyboard and Mouse is very convenient for when I want to mess around with UI or communicate with others even though I play exclusively on controller.

>>1591557
I come from /vg/ and /v/ so I've seen infinitely worse. Guy seems chill compared to the other dudes. XIV is a game where the two biggest groups that play it are either roleplayers spending huge money on cosmetics or tryhards parsing for score so we have to accept that fact too.

>>1591560
its not hard to mess around with the UI on controller, its actually pretty easy.

>>1591584
What's the easiest way to get caught up in gear?

I haven't played in years and my characters still have a pretty low item level, some of them so low that I can't do newer content due to ilv restriction.

Am I truly understanding this job right?

Does Viper really have less buttons than Reaper? I thought Reaper already had barely any buttons to press but Viper seems to have even less?

This thread seems incredibly schizophrenic.

I'm liking Viper's brainless gameplay but I hate that they didn't give them any defensive stuff at all. Arcane Crest is such a great skill on RPR for example so I'm sad to know viper doesn't have anything at all and it's just deal damage.

me, the only final fantasy fourteen character playing for the gameplay and not the erotic roleplay with a guy in real life

hey deebs, were you the one that made miki leave? >>>/vg/511565548

Hello DB, just wanted to say thank you for always being nice to me

>>1595642

no

so is this thread just a circle jerk for some vg clique that got kicked out of vg?

Is there a possibility to sex DB or is your lady not gonna allow it?

>>1604714
Mostly erp, but gposes are also fine

>>1604756
I'm a miera, so that's debatable.

>>1604822

>>1651940
They definitely don't seem like a real person, but they gave me good stuff to report them with. I was just signed in to help Hunter understand the game. She has to beat all of FFXIV if she wants me to play Library of Ruina (which I am against anyhow) since I already beat Lobotomy Corporation with 100% (all suppressions of every abnormality, all gear, all endings).

Oh how I missed seeing this.

<<JALTER FREE COMPANY UPDATE>>

Hello /xivm/. Back in December, a number of /xivg/ anons launched a new FC on Mana's Pandaemonium world and started playing through ARR again together. That Free Company is called JALTER.

Being on the Japanese Data Center introduces unique challenges that push our members to work together to achieve different goals thanks to the language barrier, with data center travel limited to just Japan and Oceania.

After our two month anniversary the other day, here are some updates.
>Active regular members (daily log-ins) are typically at 5 players.
>FC Leadership has transferred to a new FC Master
>FC is currently bidding on houses until we win
>Crystal Tower is our next goal to complete as a group. We don't have enough active players for a full alliance raid, but can at least aim for one full party.
>Heavensward will follow once Crystal Tower is cleared

To welcome new players who might be interested in playing with us, we are now doing a soft-launch of Jalter Season 2 with our very own Recruitment Campaign!

Starting now, new characters are formally encouraged to join the fun. We'll be crafting custom-gear for those new members to wear and show their Jalter pride. Players who remain active for one month will also receive a special gift package of in-game items to celebrate their Jalterversary, including the fruit needed to color their chocobo.

Additionally, any returning players who have been inactive but would like to rejoin will receive the same one-month celebration package after returning to a regularly active status.

If you'd like to become a member, just send an application or contact an online player with the <2PAN> FC tag.

If you...
>Want to experience the game in a new way
>Want to try a new character
>Want to see how Japanese players approach XIV
>Want to become a part of a small community
>Want to give it a shot for no particular reason
... join Jalter on Pandaemonium@Mana today!

Does this general exist for anything besides Yzilma to shitpost here instead of /vg/ because he got buckbroken there? Is it just for people who are currently banned from /vg/?

No, we just do little voices for the characters and RP walk to each NPC. It's fun.

can anyone help me get to fru p5?

>>1663414
Nope we did it, in fact, when I got married in-game, we RP-walked to each shrine. It's nice to immerse yourself and take your time.

Did you not understand? the only reason they don't come and buttfuck this thread is because they're scared of you and this board is slow.

>>1704816
What you need to do is form a thread "culture" that is only understood by a few and participated by those few. That way, it has a natural barrier against retard schizo fags from both /v/ and /vg/. I am a tasteless bowl of water, and only seasoned by those who visit here.

If you talk about the game enough here, people will reply, people always do. Do it over and over again with good incentive and they will return here over and over again with good incentive. You just need effort to set the trend.

I trust that you know this already, you are more aware than most, but reassurance never hurts.

New player going to play the trial version of FF14

Without any spoilers can you give me any tips for someone starting out? Especially for things that you can miss or fuck you over later.

>>1705205
The MSQ is the best way for gear, leveling up.

Nu-Castrum is good.

>>1707459
did they change it last patch?

>>1707472
Nah, just tried it for the first time in years. I like the dungeon format and new Livia fight a lot.

The new Gaius fight is also really good.

>>1707485
>>1707474
I like that they were retroactively adapted to reflect their later incarnations (Livia in the Aitiascope and Gaius in Emerald Weapon, respectively) because those were both decent fights. The Rhitanyn (solo duty) rework gives it a lot more gravity than it used to have (over in approximately 7 seconds) and even evokes a bit of empathy for him/his troops. I disagree with the way classes and other older duties get retooled, but all of the ARR MSQ changes have been handled really well.

>>1710289
Yeah I honestly like when FFXIV wants you to interact with the boss a lot, and a lot of the ARR dungeons that are in the MSQ do not do that quite well. I think the development team has done a better job at introducing mechanics to new players more than ever. The only issue is like you said, the retooling of classes and older duties getting gutted (Darkhold for instance).

I hope one day someone will open a private server we can all play on. It would be nice to begin on an FFXIV playerbase from scratch. I know the game is in a better state now but... I still envy those who experience 2013 ARR.

>>1710302

>>1746763
I know it smell crazy in there

>>1746766
stankin up the whole valley

the community for this game is intolerable. can't do shit anymore without over half the raid team using cactbot. shits been on a steep decline since TEA came out

>>1746763
why is there a viera?

thots on m6s?

>>1747592
top was the breaking point for me. I teams from Stormblood all the way to top, and never in my life have I hated content more than top.

you really have 4 options when it comes to top due to fast mechanics and variance.
1 - dedicated mark slave (I did this for about 2 weeks until someone elses automarker started doing it, I was disappointed). sucks dick because you have to pause during large mechanics and rapidly mark people.
2 - 7 fast thinkers, 1 slow boy. this is harder to get outside of groups that run way too many hours.
3 - automarker
4 - [this option does not actually work due to the ability to steal other peoples marks] /mk attack <me> and /mk link <me>

the option that SHOULD work here is 4, but the game engine or servers w/e idc doesn't fully support queuing of actions, so if 2 people do it within the same timeframe before the game updates, you can steal other peoples marks. literally the tools to do the mechanics are fucking broke.

dogshit mechanics? yup we got those. DSR was peak content reliable without automarkers. priority systems had enough time to have everyone manually marked O and atk 1-5 alongside ignore 1/2, lower # wins. top also had dogshit pacing leading you to have to hold in phases, and if you had any parse brained fucking idiot this only lead to arguments. it's very frustrating when the whymage with automarkers, and cant raid without cactbot overhypes his 90 dps, 10% heal, when as a dps you have to hold so often leading to a 50 with 95th percentile damage in final phase.

I have friends who still play, and they say it's still very much the same, most people cant play without cactbot and that's just depressing. things like cb and dbm should not be allowed in games, it takes a lot of the fun out of it. I maintain that the most fun the game was was around TEA and e4s. e8s was cool [pun not intended] but as a controller player, ice skating was the bane of my existence.

game been on a decline in job functionality since HW. storm was fine enough, but jesus christ they keep making it easier and boring
story was a fucking roller coaster.

>arr goated but way to god damn long, raid story p good, but tbf idgaf about lewy swa
>hw goated because dragons n shit, raid story the goat
>stormblood fuckin sucked. "hi im a white bitch, my dads black" yea sure ok retard, no one cares about rebuilding fucking africa, raid story was fun tho
>shadow was giga edgy, but closed off some needed fucking story finally. raid storyline sucked cock
>what came after shadow oh yeah endwalker, this shit was big gay. all I learned was that the ascians deserved to be wiped out for ever letting the biggest fucking faggot among them create that fucking bird squad. raid story cool, p8s probably one of the more fun savages imo
>yawntrail, I stopped raiding after top (kinda, i still did a week 1 group of the lightning horse bitch), but I just couldnt be assed to continue. the main story of this is fucking retarded "hi im a lion. im important because i said so. im annoying. the only time I fight well in the story is when the WoL plays me instead".

I donno if yawntrail story post electric horse bitch gets good, but the game has run its course imo. I've seen lots of other people quit along the way too citing similar reasons, but i just cant give a fuck about yawntrail story man I tried, the only cool part was deciphering that bitches dress to read "Service Eternal Many Roads One Heart Alexandria" and seeing some shit that looked like 9 in the corner of 1 map.

Honestly speaking, if you liked the game back then, you probably wont now and the community has only gotten worse.

>>1752124
Community worse, how? Back then, I was already isolated from most XIV players. Statics I joined it took months until I finally found a group I could be comfortable in VC. Then I quit for personal reasons and now that I'm back I had that MMO itch.

>>1752128
thats a you problem. starting around HW I was comfortable hopping in random discords for extremes, and in stormblood I was actively recruiting people for a discord to run shit together and turned into a raid team.

the community is worse in multiple ways:
>1 - the "you dont pay my sub" absolute shitters. even more of these guys are fucking everywhere now and it makes doing even the smallest of content [dungeons/24man] slow as fucking hell. these people have never read a tool tip in their fucking life
>2 - the "wait for cutscene" retards. im not waiting for 1 or 2 people to watch the god damn cutscene in a 24 man raid thats been out for fucking 5 years. We all have shit to do, the community used to realize this.
>3 - the "raid scene" has become riddled with people who can't play without cactbot or automarker. so if they're slow to update and you normally raid on tuesday, people start making excuses to not play. there's a huge fucking stigma around not telling people your dog shit ass needs these tools to play, and just ends up losing hours. It's also really annoying when you have to constantly hear "can we be quiet guys I'm trying to focus" which translates to "i cant hear my cactbot guys :c"
>4 - absolute tranny infestation. I didn't give half a fuck about these guys initially, but my god they're everywhere and they're just like muslims, once they're a majority suddenly the knives come out. "you should be more inclusive" "omg you misgendered me" "how hard is it to call me her". it's really god damn hard, you sound like a fucking man, my brain hears that and goes "man", but if you say this they get all mad, then everyone starts acting like you're the problem, not the guy who never made a big deal out of it until last week.

>>1753485
>"i cant hear my cactbot guys :c"
Oh nononononononono, why did I resub to this. Oh well, I'm enjoying the MSQ 7.0+ content so far. I sincerely haven't had any issues with Wuk Lamat but maybe its because I articulate the character herself in my own way.

>>1753497
You need to come back and purge xivg of the all the filth

>>1753939
How is /xivg/ any different compared to 5+ years ago?

Is the game worth getting into as a new player? I wanna start no lifeing a good mmo and ff14 seems to be a decent one but looking into it I saw a lot of people were shitting on its current state and dropping the game and I dont want to board a sinking ship desu.

>>1757956
there's tons of content to do if you're just starting out

>>1757962
I know that Im more concerned about the games future. I dont want to invest my time and money into something that might die in the near future

>>1757964
it's still a cash cow for sqex so it's not getting shut down any time soon if that's what you're worried about

>>1757964
Reminder XI came out in 2002 and look where it is today. I am confident XIV will exist in your senior years.

>>1757977
How hard is it to find raid parties and guilds as a new player?

>>1758006
I can't say because I've played XIV for a long time raid-wise, but the XIV community are relatively helpful on the surface.

>>1758006
in XIV? very easy unless you play on the dead NA data center but even then you could just travel to one of the busier ones

>>1758012

>>1759784

this is fine

I have finished 7.0 MSQ and firmly believe the hard negativity come from transphobic people. It's not a great MSQ, but it holds off well on its own. Some areas drag like the last zone where everyone was saying their good byes in 4 different flavors, but the homage to FF9 was done well. It's a solid xpac and regret not playing 7.0 on release.

>>1763627
chaser

my DeeBa I'm only crafting HQ Smooth Butter for the Master Culnarian title (ignore the 35, those were made before I started, I will craft butter 10,000 times total before I actually "earn" the title)

>>1764142
>The average player is not aware of the fact that Wuk Lamat's voice actor is a MTF person
I see your point, but as someone who ignores social media like Reddit, Twitter, etc. and still get some level of awareness about the trans shit or >Speak to Wuk Lamat memes; even the average joes get a whiff of it. The latter is what bothers me the most, it's grasping at straws where people ignore how MSQs of the past always had you run back to characters like Alphinaud in HW or that blonde bitch in SB. If you're going to bash the MSQ, bash at the actual content like what you are mentioning and such.
>My main issue with it is the fact it does not know what to do with itself after the 60th quest in the MSQ
I think it's naive to think Gulool Ja is not being hated by both Alexandrians and Tuliyollians. In just about any other media that depicts hierarchy, when their forbearer had did war crimes to civilians it naturally displaces their hatred to the offsprings. Gulool Ja is a cute character, I do like him, but SE writers are completely neglecting the historical facts of what happens after senseless violence from a dictator.

>>1763627
>negativity comes from transphobic people.
I do agree with this a bit, given that the /v/ and /vg/ counterparts cannot stop misgendering Wuk Lamat's voice actor and go on anti-trans crusades if you dare give an inch of defense. (Ironic given how much they gloat on about futa and fetishize transsexuals on those boards. Fucking hypocrites.) Wuk Lamat was given a poorly-written character's role and she did a decent job at it. You can disagree with me, but I was more annoyed with Wuk Lamat's character writing being overbearing and even suffocating at points in the MSQ. Post-Dawntrail has been better with her role, but unfortunately the damage was already done to her character with the foundation being set in 7.0.

I feel Alexandria itself should've been the post-expansion story alone. Not introduced as the midway point after Wuk Lamat's rise to the throne, because those cutscenes really dragged out the length. Everything after level 96 or 97 felt off with the story's atmosphere.

Any leaks for the phantom jobs?

>>1772959
all the ff5 jobs apparently

I thought the phantom jobs would be more exciting not just your actual job + some sprinkles on top

So now that WoW won (and it won hard, btw), and it's over for yawntrail, what now?

i had a dream about you last night. you let me and my companions (we were on a quest) stay over at your house, but for some reason, even though your house was huge, you only had one bed, so we all had to share. we were 6 people in one bed, kind of uncomfortable

He’s sharing a bed with 5 men, of course he’s naked.

Just checked it out for the first time in a while, kinda depressing how samey all the jobs are. There are effectively just four jobs now: Tank, Healer, Ranged DPS, Melee DPS. The job you choose is basically "choose your animation"

>>1788696
Square felt like it had to be done due to certain jobs being excluded from content from player discretion. I.E. Paladin being barred from parties due to it not having magic defense in HW and then MNK and BRD not fitting into party rotations and buff cycles nicely. It's only going to get worse as the game progresses due to how plug-in heavy the community is becoming. Square is taking notice of that and is trying to make the game more accessible to players so it can retain more player engagement.

How do you mean?

>>1801648
She probably means foreplay, and your overall technique. A more common colloquial is "it's not about the size of the ship, but the motion of the ocean" meaning it's really about how you um, move while inside. Some women don't climax from internal stimulation and go off with external (clitoral or nipple) stimulation instead. Also, the situation outlined in that /tell exchange hardly seems enviable, for what it's worth.

Decided to stop an entire party to read through every book in the dungeon.

I like that the details of Dawntrail were subtly foreshadowed here a bit.

This guy is an /x/ poster.

But he became apart of /h/ as well.

I did viper for DT and it just felt like a messy variant off of reaper. I'm going to try and hold off my usual abloo bloo bloo DT shit that's for /v/ but I honestly am hopeful to hear about fanfests (From doing the math I think we'll be due the first one in november-ish. Earlier in july was due to END's late release) because while I am not happy with the nature of the game it's either got nowhere to go but up or it'll crash and burn and I can just divorce myself from it like I did say Dragon Age or Xcom.

>>1757964
>Die
I fully believe 100% they intend at one point to make the game fully offline-able. Trusts for raids is the main missing feature right now (more complicated for bozja eureka kinda shit) and they already flirted with that in two expansions now with 8 man NPC trusts. The real interesting question is the phone-game direction. It's right now limited to either 2.0 or 2.1 or something. I don't think even Ninja is featured yet. So unless they speed-run adding the expansions it's got quite a ways off, and even if you did an expansion a year that'd be 5 years of content to 7.0 (by which time you'd have 8.0 and maybe 9.0). Yet at the same time it might be the 'future' they shift focus to it if mobile gaming continues the dominance.

Obviously a troon.

Never mind she ruined it, fuck this character.

This dude is so humble.

Yeah she's not dodging the Shotacon allegations.

So decided to do a report because I just find these funny but...

Apparently GMs not only can go invisible when investigating a player but can have "results" when entering a player's name. Whether that means chat logs or even players is up to interpretation but it is a new tool I have not considered.

I love Regula.

>Fraternity
>Brotherhood
>Chivalry Circle
>GENTLEMEN
Named group to not exactly show what it is on the outside to everyone. Which can easily be done but you would need about 8 members to get it off the ground and advertise on niche spaces. Include the rules in the Discord that are vague and have people be screened.

What the fuck?

>>1807181
Okay perfect idea, make an FC called Backstreet Boys. No one would suspect a fucking thing. You can easily have a clause for denying any female or trans character out the bat. You guys can have a Discord where you all post transphobic edits of backstreet boys songs. In addition to BB having Christian songs you can have.

>>1806928
From a cursory search, it seems like FCs referencing the Roman Empire aren’t filtered - I couldn’t find any active FCs along that vein, but if you set out to make your own (or otherwise make/find an FC centered around “masculine” interests), that could attract the kind of group you want.

They should make this harder

RMT sellers use male hyurs to sell their goods because it is the default race the game puts you as. If you look at the active character/endgame characters, the majority of male hyurs are just missing because they are typically RMT mules.

>>1809459
Me or the people in the forums?
I think it's rather interesting that some people really fear the other side from like being included into an MMO culture that has a loud vocal minority of LGBTQ players. It makes us wonder why the other side doesn't exist, almost similar to scientists studying the extinction of Neanderthals' or trying the find the missing link and so. I like to think of solutions for social problems like these. It's sad to say but anything LGBTQ is already leaning towards political discussion and or environments about it. Which means anything opposing it is also political. The internet is too cynical to believe that both can exist when neither should exist in video game spaces.

When it comes to matter of spaces, I have no horse in this race per se. I was curious about whether or not >>1806928 can be answer. It's quite interesting to see how this was a pattern over the years across the internet as well.
People looking for people like them. The crave for solidarity is something I do not have myself but I am always wondering about as to how far some people would go for it. I remember an Australian Christian lady being interested in me and I had another friend who absolutely despised her because of the Christian belief and how it takes advantage of women. A lot of people are like that on FFXIV and even have issues with the retards larping as popes and the Christian church on FFXIV. It's a very "us vs them" mentality on both sides that will never subside.

It's also easy as fuck to find communities outside of the game that are racist or hate trannies or faggots as opposed to the opposite.
