evercold's soundtrack should be nightcore-themed. i believe with all my heart that soken can find the courage to take the game in this groundbreaking new direction

I'm gonna be very cranky if my static doesn't finish UMAD by then (but tbh I don't think we're going to) bsky.app/profile/roir...

I hate what mit sheets do to tanking so much that I've been half-seriously thinking about going all accelerationist and writing a full automated mit solver in hopes that, if it got widespread adoption, SE would finally stop giving fights such static damage profiles & kill off mit sheets

on my hands & knees begging the FFXIV raiding community to make better choices about the strats it standardizes lol

> but often it ends up behind half an hour of wiping to P1/2/early P3, then disbanding

I really think this fight has been the culmination of the worst trends in how the community picks strats, especially Forsaken.

We keep ending up stuck with strats that are "easier" in that players have fewer decisions to make but are also quite fiddly & make the causes of wipes opaque. So players will make the correct decision but not execute it precisely enough, and then a bait picks the wrong target and the raid explodes but, because they made the right decision, they won't even realize it was their fault. Or, even worse, three people's small placement errors which would each be fine alone are together enough to change a bait target. And then because everyone made the right decision and went to the same spot they always use, nobody realizes it was partly their fault and nothing gets learned and they keep doing things that make the mechanic inconsistent.

I think it actually comes from the fact that the game tries to get cute and show her doing really vicious capitalism things (or worse) but in a funny way. Like the time we helped her establish something clearly modeled on a European colonial trading company. But go off I guess lmao

UMAD is really highlighting just how badly we need Square Enix to add randomness to tank damage timelines, imo. It's so unhealthy for tank mit usage timelines to just be completely, 100% fixed in a spreadsheet everyone follows for every possible pairing of tanks

ok i'm sorry but evolved jobs don't even look half baked, I realize it's early but these look like one tenth baked

Wow that ultimate tease was literally the most anticlimactic it could possibly be At least we're getting shantotto in the alliance raid

There's some EW and DT zones that really bother me because they feel, idk, weightless? Insubstantial? UT and Heritage Found are the worst offenders, but a lot of the newer zones have this vibe of being designed as places *players visit*, rather than *characters inhabit*, if that makes sense?

Man, I should go replay the DRK quests. Why can't the whole game be as well written as the DRK 1-60 job quests & 80 capstone, those are all *so good*

ok I need to say it: Everything Burns is like, fine at best, m10's theme is better, and m4 had the best music of the raid series

hot take: swiftcast and triplecast should work on limit breaks
