the Faerie Tale Princess' Tiara would help complete the look, but can't buy that (even if i were willing to spend the money) because i'd have to upgrade this account to do so (which would defeat its entire point), so...

this is probably as close as i'm getting (i.e. not very)

her XIV outfit was most of the way there already, i meant more the rest of the characters they showed off lol

i guess it wasn't a problem unique to FFXIV, SE as a whole seems allergic to characters dressed in anything but the latest streetwear fashion

they really need to give jobs more buttons at low levels it's so dire...

they're one of FFXIV's stronger (not to mention, unique) bits of worldbuilding for sure!

i hope they've got a rework planned for it next expansion because while its animations are very flashy it feels like half of a Job right now (and barely like anything below level 80 or even 90). the 'two blades into polearm' gimmick feels wasted on it at the moment...

can't really contribute i only started playing in 5.3 lol...

Dia('s MMO Containment Area) @xenialinvalidation.bsky.social · 2d

oh yeah, no doubt (my bet's on hammer Tank. don't really care what the phys. ranged DPS will be), i was thinking specifically about his comment that they'll expand on existing Jobs' gameplay *somehow*

same interview from a month or two ago, yeah, when yoshi-p reassured people who like the Jobs as they currently are that they're not going anywhere

you might think "oh they must've resubbed for Pilgrim's Traverse" but, no, this was just Heaven-on-High lol

sorry to have been the one to remind you.. they really were awful...

it's the Dawntrail Role Quest NPCs, for reasons only the devs would know

strangely enough actually protective guards seem to have been primarily a european and/or indian thing, most examples of swords from other cultures only had something there to prevent the hand sliding up the blade (if even that lol)

Dia('s MMO Containment Area) @xenialinvalidation.bsky.social · 8d

i mean, i don't know, but the ratio of surfboards to sensibly proportioned weapons has felt skewed in favour of the former for ages now... i would love if it were true though for sure lmao

at this point i'm half-coping they keep making DRK weapons big dumb slabs because they're planning to make smaller, slender greatswords into its own separate Job

honestly hair mashups scare me more than gear, the models are (deliberately) such a mess and there's very little you can do to hide seams and the like in comparison...
