Was looking for this. The crossover randomiser of Link to the Past and Super Metroid is a masterpiece, and if you like one or both of the games it provides you with a new way to have the complete the game every time you play it.

Add in the different flavours like entrance randomiser (where not only are the items shuffled but the doors you enter don’t go where they normally go), or keysanity (where keys don’t stay in their dungeons and can instead be anywhere) and it turns what was already a great SNES area game into something you can play over and over again.

They pushed a hotfix out for it.

Nice, that’s good to know. Problem of course is can you coordinate that in alliance roulette instead of people just voting abandon as more people discover the problem.

The job listing in question. With all the new Vipers out there, demand can only go up.

Correct. The countdown is to the official release, not the early access.

You can also cheese it with resurrection, the raise invul blocks curtain call damage. But since everyone else is then dead you need a strategy to revive people afterwards.

Also a lot of the potency increases aren’t just always there, they’re based on new traits you get in the level 91-100 range, so you won’t see those increases immediately in most cases, you have to level up and get the new job trait.

It’s based on the new AF gear I think! Marked it as a spoiler if you don’t want to see it but I’m pretty sure they demoed this during the live letter.

Same here! I want to know what gear pieces they’ve based it on so I can turn this into a glam!

Honestly probably just watch some TV or get some extra work done, although if you’re looking for a game to play, the remastered version of Beyond Good & Evil came out this week. Been probably 20 years since I played it originally but I remember it being a fun game with a great cast and musical score.

Fair point. Personally I’d love to see you be able to save a glamour against a gear set as well so you can use your glamour plates for everything else. But with gear sets being stored client side rather than server side that probably won’t happen.

Will be interesting if we get something akin to the body snatcher mission from Endwalker. I remember a lot of people struggled with it at the time but I quite enjoyed the change in pace (and I don’t mind a stealth game either so sneaking around the ruins avoiding enemies was fun to me).

They’ve added a new side quest that will give you the Fantasia, it’s listed in the patch notes! So once you complete that you’ll get it.

Such a simple change but easily one of the better QOL updates.

And if you still have Road to 80 and they update that to 90, you can double that.

Right? I’m not even asking for more glamour chest space! (Yet. Baby steps.)

Sadly didn’t see anything about increasing the number of glamour plates. We now have more jobs than glamour plates, so if you have one glam per job, something has to share, and you have no room for casual glams. And that’s before you factor in DoH/DoL jobs.

A lot of people will be excited about that to get Viper and Picto to 90 quickly 😊

For what it’s worth, as long as the stream is active you yourself don’t have to be actively watching it. You could find a streamer who’s streaming overnight (relative to your timezone), put Twitch on, go to bed and wake up with a mount.

And to be fair, any sort of external requirement is going to annoy someone, and FFXIV does have a few of them. Between regionalised promotions, food tie-ins, streaming rewards, timed preorder bonuses, time restricted PvP rewards, expensive statues locking emotes, etc.

There’s always going to be some stuff people would like but either can’t get or don’t want to participate in whatever the promotion is. I don’t see that going away any time soon.

I totally didn’t think of Zhloe and her poor orphan children when looking at this image, no no. Don’t forget to feed the children.
