New game plus is out it's just missing the ARR stuff since they didn't want to bother with it while reworking ARR.

Blue Mage and the new Frontlines map are due in December.

Ohh, so is the Marlboro mount from new game plus like people speculated?

Damn, that sucks because I don't have fun playing blue mage. :(

Does NG+ give anything?

No its literally a more advanced "Unending Journey" where you can replay scenarios as if they were never done, but without literally any reward including quest EXP. It was created in response to people constantly wanting to redo certain ingame scenarios like the Naadam in Stormblood but couldn't because it wasn't a cutscene or couldn't see in game text outside of cutscenes with important scenario info.

Played this during the " boss battle " fairy mission



With the entire aesthetic of the area changed because of all that darkness, it fit

One of the RAM sticks in the new PC is having a problem and I had to RMA both sticks. If I hook a keyboard and mouse up to my PS4 will all my hot keys carry over?

Patch 4.45 Notes | FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone

Patch 4.45 Notes

There's a system, but it didn't work on PS4 when it launched, although that was a year ago. Don't know if the system supports inter-platform setting backup or only intra-platform, either
If your PC isn't working at all/can't boot up FFXIV, though, there's nothing you can do, it's a manual system

Spent a little time messing around with Restoration of Ishgard. I like the idea though I'm not big on crafting so I don't expect to return to it, at least until they roll gathering into it.

It is proving to be a nice way to make some money while gathering though.

This ultimate seems tougher than the previous two. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK at the second trio with the limit cut. How is it even possible to react? It just happens so fast.... how do you plan positions for this? Watching Jp streams fail to this and I feel so bad xD

Depends on whether you uploaded your settings to the cloud using the backup function on the character select menu.

EN_20181025_yn_04.jpg


Hotkeys, gearsets, macros, the hud, and nearly every other setting are saved locally. If you uploaded them or can still boot the pc to upload them (note that there's two settings, system settings at the very top and character specific settings next to your character name) they should transfer over to ps4 after you restore them.

Been boosting the craft jobs with this event and wow, crafting is actually fun when you can reliably gather and craft the things you need instead of going "Ok, I need X and Y ... I can make Y but my completely unrelated job can't make X yet so I gotta buy X off the MB ... and it cost more than just buying the end product sooo fuck."

Oh wow the final expansion to the pixie area is breathtaking. Got my mount and minion and the story with them was fantastic too. Final mission was great, pretty cool final fight. How the hell does this game just deliver and deliver?

No date. It's so far off they didn't even announce it with the rest of the games, just off hand in an interview.

I have never gone from such highs to such lows so fast. I desperately want to play this at 60fps 4k on my x

TBH it sounds to me, at least at first impression, as "FFXIV is coming to Scarlett." I can't imagine why they would bother developing the game for the XB1 at this point so late in the gen. The language used, saying "to Xbox" is just so specifically vague to me that I feel like if it was coming to XB1 anytime soon they would've explicitly named the console.

cause coming to Xbox One also means it's coming to Scarlet. No need to lose those potential customers by going Scarlet exclusive. I would be incredibly shocked if it was exclusive.

Considering Scarlett will be fully backwards compatible, I highly doubt SE will bother to make a totally new version. It wouldn't really be any different than an X/pro enhancement option in the settings I would think.

Yeah, I suppose it all depends on how the backwards compatibility even works, which might not be the way we conventionally think. If it's just "this game works on both consoles but the Scarlett version has a graphics pack" then that makes sense.

Is the Ultimate beaten yet? Also Bahamut took the longest I'm guessing?

Not even close from what we can see from the people streaming. The group that is the furthest spent 12 hours beating their heads against the second Limit Cut phase yesterday and made about 5 seconds of progress in that time. They are about 8 minutes into a fight that is expected to last 16 to 18.

I believe this is still the clip that shows the furthest point anyone am has gotten unless progress was made overnight

UCoB took 11 days
UWU took 5 days

Where can I get the Sky Pirate set which should be available now for everyone?

Edit: I am an idiot. AH of course...

Shoot that was what I was afraid of. I already removed the ram and shipped it.

Finally beat ARR. Felt like it would never end but I did enjoy the ending bit. Still finding the story a little to kingdom hearts ish.

I just started Heavensward and I've read that it gets much better from this point on and less fetch quests?

You're in for several emotional rollercoasters going forward.

Apparently Balmung already finished this "phase" of the Ishgard restoration and it's just done? No more Fates, just turn ins. This seems way too fast.

That, uhh, sounds really fucking dumb

Nothing more until 5.2, assumedly?

I found the image, and it sure sounds like that's it for a while:

Even taking into account the world visit nonsense causing trouble, that's still not a lot of content for something like this.

Hopefully they make it take longer for the next phases. ShB's in need of long-term content, what with the relic seemingly nowhere in sight.

I definitely hadn't considered that a world would be able to wrap up the first chunk of the Restoration in less than a week. I figured it would've been tweaked to take a real long time.

I wonder how long they were actually expecting it would take for a world to finish.

This is FF14. People will clear anything in as little time as possible, no matter how much time YoshiP -thinks- something should take.

That was cleared quicker than I was expecting with the way progress was generally going. But then teams are progressively getting better the more Ultimates they release.

So, that it for the Ishgardian Restoration already until next patch? They could have stretched that out a bit further.
