Yeah FF6 has Relm, whose ability “sketch” lets her copy enemies’ attacks by drawing them with a brush. It’s fairly similar to blue mage in its original form, but I highly doubt they’d make a second, highly similar limited. So I suspect it’s a lot like blue mage in its style except it’s a real job.
Previously Yoshi P’s shirt clues have not been particularly complicated so I think this solution makes the most sense so far.
They already revealed the job is a caster, not physical ranged, though.
Perhaps because people aren’t going around calling others “males” to demean them?
These are not difficult concepts if you turn on your brain.
No one says “women soldiers” except maybe a civilian.
And I’m not telling you to, stop putting words in my mouth. Female as an adjective is fine, “female soldier” is fine, calling a group of human women “females”, as in a noun, is demeaning and incel lingo.
Female/male are used in English as adjectives when describing humans, but as nouns they only refer to animals. “She is a woman” and “She is a female actress” are both okay but calling women “females” is purposefully demeaning and sexist. I do not believe there is any regional difference in this, nor should we really care about such since there are no regions when we’re on a global forum.
I’m from a country with mandatory conscription for men, so yes, I’ve been in the military and I’ve seen the misogyny (among countless other varieties of bigotry) rampant in that system from front row seats. We had a handful of female volunteer conscripts, as well as one of my NCOs was a woman, and it was blatantly obvious they were not recieving the same treatment as the majority of us who were men (and not in a good way, if there was any room for confusion).
Experiences like that are among the key reasons I’m not happy to see people keep perpetuating that kind of behavior, especially in other traditionally male-centric contexts like the IT industry and even here on this forum.
I’d rather sound miserable than incel.
While true, there are some languages that are the wrong tool for every job. JS is one of them. I’ve dreamt of a future where web frontends switched to something sane but instead we got stuff like typescript which is like trying to erect steel beams in quicksand. For web frontends I can understand that historical reasons have lead to this but whoever came up with node thinking JS would be a great backend language has a lot of explaining to do.
“They said”
If only there was some generally agreed upon symbol to denote direct quotes as opposed to paraphrasing an idea in your own words. If only…
they preferred training females
It’s “women”.
They’ve since updated it to allow you to display labels & not condense multiple windows into one button so it’s better than ever. I can’t believe it took until 11 to center the items, left aligning was a literal pain in the neck especially on ultrawide screens.
Which is exactly why you shouldn’t be using them in a situation that clearly calls for a switch.
And there are way too many projects where the documentation is nonexistent or bare to the point of being counterproductive to wade through. I’ve seen way too many open source projects that purport to have documentation but when you open it, it’s just doxygen run over the raw source files with barely any documenting comments in them. If I wanted to see only the names of the classes and functions I’d just pop the source in an IDE, the point of documentation is to point out everything that isn’t immediately obvious just looking at names and to give examples.
“Self-documenting code” is the biggest lie we tell ourselves to get out of writing actual, necessary documentation.
And that works well when you have Discord for instant, synchronous messaging and voice chat and something like Reddit or another forum for more permanent, asynchronous discussions. Now that Reddit’s going the way of Digg, people are looking for anything to replace its functionality. Discord gets close, but isn’t quite there for the countless reasons already mentioned in this thread. That’s why I really hope something like this community on Fediverse takes off.
I believe this is the most populated FFXIV Community.
It’s the only one in existence I can find using the community search, at least. I’d love to see it grow.
I don’t think it’s even trying to, it’s just the users that see nails everywhere after getting a shiny new hammer. Discord is an excellent instant messenger & voice chat app, but it’s in no way a Reddit or forum replacement. They’ve added threads but again, those work more for containing conversations that veered off the original topic or are too specific for a channel, not as a replacement for something like a Reddit post.
This is definitely interesting and I look forward to see how it plays.
At the same time, I remain slightly skeptical, as big brand name tie-in products often tend to be less than stellar. It takes a lot of effort, testing and polishing to put out at truly good TTRPG system and it’s not easy even for big companies that are dedicated to the industry. I’d love to see this succeed and continue to get extra material in the future, but at same time I’ve seen one too many fail trying to do things like this.
Brings to mind the Dark Souls TTRPG book built on top of D&D 5e, which was a thick tome absolutely chock full of gorgeus art and just as full of baffling, contradictory and clearly not at all playtested rules. Such a shame.
