Very obvious that they split it in two and it kind of just ends as is, but it's alright. The dungeon is fun, and should bring some much-needed variety to Expert Roulette.
Actual story in a nutshell:
Thoughts on current msq
I thought when they revealed solus is an ascian and the whole point of the country is to bring chaos to the world, varis would rebel against him and team up with us for shadowbringers
Turns out he pretty much believes in the cause as well?
What was the point of showing us scenes where varis is angry at solus?
My current theory is that varis is faking it right now, in shadowbringers he will cooperate with the scions to defeat solus
So Varis is a fucking idiot right?He wants to commit genocide so that humanity becomes a single race again? How the fuck does that make sense? How does that even happen?
Tanking? Because those queues are always miserably long for 24 man.30+ minute DF queue on the new 24 man?
... Should I be scared?
Varis does seem like an idiot, yes.
I'm honestly confused what his reasoning is here. He should know better!
i still think he's just faking it because he knows solus has eyes on him
30+ minute DF queue on the new 24 man?
... Should I be scared?
Just finished the new dungeon. Pretty fun, very cinematic with some interesting fights.
Also, WHM is so bad now even Kan-E-Senna is switching to AST. I rolled me eyes when she used collective unconscious
It's gonna end up being sex locked races. Female bunnies and male lions.maybe i used the wrong phrase
but who's to say the universe won't just end when all the worlds colllide?
he's putting a stupidly big trust on the ascians
it's just a strange 180 of his character imo
also, interesting how every calamity brought an end to 1 world, so with 7 calamities (we're in 7th umbral era so there are 7 calamities if i'm not mistaken), there are now only 6 worlds remaining?
not sure how a calamity in our world brought ends to other worlds

calamities are what allow ascians to force other shards to be rejoined to the source world (the one we play on.)
basically they cause enough damage to hydaelyn to force her to have to absorb a shard to replenish the world's aether. (otherwise there may not be enough to keep life going) as shown in 3.4, the shards are their own worlds themselves with their own people and life and differences.
Cool, thanks for the explanationcalamities are what allow ascians to force other shards to be rejoined to the source world (the one we play on.)

The last boss of the Ivalice raid was craaaaaaaaaazy. I loved it!
Return to Ivalice ending spoilers
I wonder if we'll see Gabranth, Fran, and that guy at Goug in Shadowbringers. It seems like they're setting up for them to appear again, but who knows.
I'll be starting the Return to Ivalice content from scratch tonight.
Sounds like a fun time. First time doing raid content in forever... like maybe since Syrcus Tower/WoD...
Any pro-tips?
I loved the 24 man raid but damn I don't know why they went through the effort all things considered. In my FC 98% of the people didn't know anything about Ivalice period outside of wanting the Viera race. It was just « who is this ? » « I don't know any of the bosses »
I'm thinking they got the worst piece of nostalgia to latch on too. FF fans in general doesn't care much about anything Ivalice related

Alright, Always Sunny conspiracy gif time - The Butterflies you see in the meeting cutscene? Ascians. Varis was just reading the script and wanted an excuse to tell us the truth about Garlemalds origin.
Tin foil hat off... He was probably telling the truth about his goals. I think it still lines up with the way his character has acted so far. I'd love the above theory to be true because otherwise he's an absolute idiot, but unfortunately I feel it won't be.
It makes more sense now that I knowI'm still disappointed in Varis though. He sounded genuine so I think he's for real. He's dumb.calamities cause Hydaelyn to heal itself by sacrificing other worlds. Idr when they said that but clearly I wasn't paying attention.I wish they gave you the option to tell him he's clearly afraid of the Ascians. I've permakilled like three already. We got this.

1. Buying another license on your account gives you 30 free days, yes. Even if you never use it on the bought platform.So I been on a hiatus from this game for about a year now and I'm thinking it's probably time to jump back on to catch up to the new content but I have some quick questions:
1-IIRC buying the PC version allows me to play for 30 days to play on my account on PS4 correct?
2-Which version (Store) of FFXIV on PC is recommended?
3-I don't know if I will actually play the PC version or not yet but I'm assuming the game will run just fine on my laptop based on this test correct?
Once I actually touch the PC version I will have to look up setting recommendations thou...
