The next step towards destruction has arrived. Legatus is back, *GASP*, with his very own hard mode! Surely Square Enix, the masters of storytelling, devised some genius way to write his re-birth into the story and progress the impending destruction.

*This battle content presents some contradictions when played alongside the main story, as events ( Read more... )

So it's finally here, patch 1.23. The beginning of the Seventh Umbral era, mass destruction of Eorzea via Dalamud, and the ushering of 2.0. Woohoo? I gotta say, the timing for this patch was horrible for me. It's extremely difficult to stomach this game immediately following a GW2 beta weekend. Luckily, cutscenes are one thing SE never had a ( Read more... )

So I've been searching for some XIV entries to make. Ive been playing somewhat, still trying to get ready for 2.0. But honestly, the game is still in such a pitiful state that it's difficult to find something post worthy. Nobody wants to hear about me standing in one place farming coins, or healing NPCs to get seals ( Read more... )

Bout that time again!

The ultimate stopgap to GW2 :D (next beta weekend prz!) Loving Inferno's difficulty, it's no joke and will keep me busy for a while I reckon. Not really much to say otherwise, it's Diablo. You know what you're getting.

This would be the shortest post ever, however I did want to share a gif I just finished whiping up. Hell cow level put out :D

I'm not kidding or exaggerating, there's almost 20MB of screenshots under this LJ cut.. and it's only two images. For viewing purposes, they are being displayed at like 10% size.. click through for the real thing. 7680x4800 on one, and I cut the other in half vertically to save space as it was just empty water below me anyway. I don't know if I ( Read more... )

And when I say "paid", I actually mean "used some of the crysta I pre-bought before the games release". I have no intentions of keeping the sub going past 30 days, but found myself semi-excited to check out what jobs/the rest of the patch had to offer.

First things first, yes Razorbites is down. Again, I know. Sorry if the red X's hurt your eyes. I'll finally be moving away from it soon, and discovered a handy little tool to allow me to do so. It's called LJsec, and I'm so glad it exists. Amongst its many features is a bulk find & replace tool, which will allow me to change the hotlinks on all ( Read more... )

Well, the pay-to-play era has begun in the world of Eorzea. While I may be a borderline fanboy (and lets be real, anybody who played after the first month is) with cautious optimism for 2.0, I'm not an idiot. There's no way that was going to fly, so I did not subscribe. I do however have pre-bought gametime that I purchased with the games release(d ( Read more... )

Following up the end of my previous entry, I started using Twitter for my shorter game-related thoughts. I will still be using livejournal for when I get long-winded, however I also plan on updating twitter when I post a new entry. So if you're one of the ghosts who still hang around these parts, it may be a good idea to follow me over there rather ( Read more... )
