I'm in a weird spot as someone who doesn't like most OCs, just not my thing, but they shine when the people behind them use them to explore the setting, expand on the blanks the story leaves and to pick a "path" based on the sheer amount of side content there is.

The Final Fantasy XIV Flower Language Spreadsheet is done. If you write fanfics, roleplay, make fanart, or like flowers, I made a spreadsheet of (nearly) every flower in-game with its IRL flower and its flower language and fun facts that may be relevant to you. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

The lyrics to Not Afraid contain the line “Crucified, I am the thorn in your side” an allusion to Jesus Christ (crucifixion, crown of thorns). Jesus rose on the third day of his death, foreshadowing how Brute Bomber is totally going to come back again for the third tier of Arcadion guys trust me

summer event screenshots i forgot to post

it's been a month

7.3 shale posting

the post said not to summarize buuuuuuuuut~

expansions release from two to six months after their final fanfest. even being optimistic we're not seeing 8.0 until 2027... the rising speech will surely alleviate that pain (it's painfully generic)

at #Elezenfest

Real actual 8.0 wish is 'Can you guys just like. Look at your lore guidebook again. Like as a refresher. Maybe rearrange the writer's room so the people in there actually care to create something unique for xiv again, instead of like. Idk. trying to stretch the skin of a different ff game over msq'

lots of misinformation around this circulating now as well so be sceptical of anything that isn't coming from developers themselves as of now, mare is the only plugin known to have received a C&D order. dalamud and penumbra have not, as stated by their devs, and the alleged letter from SE is fake

did i post this on bsky yet

My ffxiv confession is granted when HP is restored by Cure and Cure II, at a 20% chance, and can be consumed for a healing potency of only 400

For some positivity, here are Neo Alexandria's two queens together! #FFXIVScreenshots

Embargo day rambling: 7.2 and .3's MSQs have higher production value than usual (7.3 has as much VA as 5.3!) which should feel great, but all of that budget is being spent on a story that constantly takes the path of least resistance. I feel like they're stalling for time..

post a FFXIV meme made by you

She got this far, but memories of Dohn Mheg flashed before her eyes... #GPOSE #rynegaia

my yan solved every problem i have about the game, best purchase ever #FFXIVScreenshots

Sphene is quite fond of this "yuri" genre. #FFXIVScreenshots

My favourite part of wplace is all the FF lesbians on the belgian coast

Playing with screenshots with 7.3, there have been slight global changes that make the game look better imo, and with chromatic aberration and the gpose filter strength slider, it's much easier to get good colours and lighting with vanilla, but I still prefer my Reshade setup. #FFXIVScreenshots

I'm already loving the chat bubbles

Happy National Girlfriend Day to Them™, we're doing green yuri now. #GPOSE #rynegaia

😌

Today would've been the fourth global anniversary of NieR: Reincarnation, the mobile game that shut down before I remembered to play it... But people have archived its many small stories, including the FFXIV collab one, and it is GOOD so please please please give it a watch: youtu.be/YC0U_aTv0EI

What if I finally posted a hair mashup I made less than two weeks before a patch that will most likely change the way hair works by adding extra attributes haha Wouldn't that be funny heliosphere.app/mod/0xfqq89s...

their time to shine (this's a page from my ongoing comic btw) #feoul

seeing a lot of feo ul posting today.... lemme join in ^_^

Huge day for us Feo Ul fans, may we finally be able to not be mildly snarky to them! #FFXIVScreenshots #ElezenHours

Working on a vanilla mashup for this elezen, it's getting close to the final stage and I took a direct hit when taking a closer look in game...

each other's knight and princess both

I translated the opening paragraph of the French version of one of the Lodestone short stories ("One Name, One Promise" in English), because it's... very evocative.

While there's still some time left, happy pride month to Mitron! Thank you for backing the proliferation of XIV Blåhaj. A role quest NPC refers to him with feminine pronouns in French, and so do some pamphlets in Akademia Anyder (after 6.4 only though) and Hythlodaeus' side story. Representation?

WOOOOOOOO HAPPY SIXTH ANNIVERSARY SHADOWBRINGERS THANK YOU FOR THE LESBIAN FLOWER FIELD IN THE KINGDOM OF RAINBOWS #FFXIVScreenshots

Games should give you the tools to continue to play them if/when they get shut down. You should keep access to the product you paid for If any of my EU viewers agree, I urge you to sign the petition Stop Killing Games EU - eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#... UK - petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

I'm not dead, but close enough to almost miss yuri day, and I can't let that slide

Nothing witty or punny to say, please just look at the gorls kissing. Happy Pride! #GPOSE #rynegaia

happy pride month!

Wow it sure is great when my characters look happy and a little silly compared to how they'd normally be, that could probably happen more often. what do you mean that's up to me to do i've got a few more atmas to go #FFXIVScreenshots

I am still an elf player at heart, I should return to elf posing...

long shot but would anyone happen to have a copy of the full XIV client from 4.1 - that would be from October 2017, game version 2017.10.05.0000.0000

I'm far from considering myself a modder but somehow, nobody made Gaia's neck thing standalone yet so I did it. It's the bare minimum so you'll probably find issues, but it exists now, enjoy: heliosphere.app/mod/2wzwc46h...

for your consideration: shale #ffxiv #gpose #shale
