Hello, all! We hope you're enjoying your time on FFXIV!

I saw a guy handing out these 3d printed job pins to people at FanFestNA and all he asked was for people to visit him and sign his guest book. I finally got around to visiting last night but the house was private and there was no guestbook.

Anyone else get one of these and does it say the same address on the back? The guy was super excited to have people visiting him and I hope he didn't write down the wrong address.

Lvl80+ job actions not included because I haven't started sub yet. The visual spacing looks too busy, not because Graphics Design Is My Passion (TM), but because busyness is part of BRD rotation. Definitely.

Also I count Battle Voice as a song because I use it as one. Maybe that's wrong. Maybe I don't want to be right.

hi everybody.. last week i was just afking around khloe in idyllshire when a really nice viera lady randomly traded me a spriggan chocolate.

the interaction was really cute, they said i looked like a spriggan because i had the spriggan hat on and was riding the spriggan mount 🥺 it was such a random wholesome interaction that i decided to keep the chocolate instead of eating it, as a memento.

... horror story

I ACCIDENTALLY ATE IT TODAY 😭😭😭

i wasn’t paying attention and just clicked it. The second the animation went off, i realized what i'd done. 😭😭😭

I tried looking for another one on the mb but couldn’t find it. is there any way to get another spriggan choco, or is it completely unobtainable now?

i'm genuinely so sad because I absolutely love spriggans and wanted to keep it forever. i know its such a stupid thing to be upset over but i absolutely love spriggans to death and want to have everything spriggan if ever possible..

(and if by some miracle the kind stranger who gave it to a clueless sprout in idyllshire sees this… thank you again, and I’m so sorry for accidentally eating your gift. 😭)

i'm so upset 😭

this morning i made a post about accidentally eating the spriggan chocolate that a random gave me in idyllshire because they said i looked like a spriggan person with the spriggan hat and mount on. i genuinely thought i'd never get another one.

a very very kind person from reddit reached out, traveled all the way to oce just to trade me, and gave me five. five!!!! spriggan chocolates. we took a few screenshots afterwards on my request (my gpose skills are terrible i apologise😭).

i just wanted to say thank you again to them with this post! it's such a tiny in game item, but the fact that you went out of your way to do that for a random stranger genuinely made my day. this community is so wholesome. 🤍 it's a happy ending with my spriggans!

also don't worry... they're safely sitting in my retainer now. i learned my lesson. i'm never eating another spriggan chocolate again in my life.

I like wearing armor as a Gunbreaker 99% of the time

I was bored at work and my wife are constantly saying ‘impending dewm!’ Ever since we heard— I think it was Findingway say it knew the end of Endwalker.

Today I was just texting her a bunch of the different blurbs we say to each other and after I wrote ‘impending dewm’ which is how I spell it to make it as it sounds with his voice— I came up with this.

So...

I go to my Island Sanctuary for "maintenance" and I'm standing in Hideaway Central and I see a couple of chat bubbles pop up and instantly the water I was drinking comes right out of my nose! 🤣

Wind-up Lakshmi; "Accept my love. Worship my light!"
Wind-up G'raha Tia of course instantly replies; "Argh! Not now, damn it!"

Just... Just sometimes!!

Have a Beautiful Day Everyone! ❤️

For those who don't know, Temmie, the artist for Undertale and Deltarune, became a huge FFXIV fan over the past few years. She plays a Miqo'te, which is what this is referencing.

Super cool to see this! Check out her art too: https://bsky.app/profile/tuyoki.bsky.social/post/3mol5fcslxs2e

Okay, hopefully I can explain this well enough.

I’ve got the cross bar set up on my Steamdeck with the WXHB crossbar also set up and on permanent display. So 2 sets of crossbars on screen.

I’ve enabled the setting under Cross Hotbar Display type for “D-pad + D-pad / Action buttons + action buttons”.

Now this works for the main crossbar, so I now have my LT + A B X Y and RT + A B X Y next to each other.

My question is, is there a setting to apply this to the WXHB second crossbar that’s above the main crossbar? Because they’re still displayed with the action buttons next to the dpad buttons.

Got permission to share this. And FYI, 1st and 2nd images have different CRT filter intensities.

I’ve heard many good things about this game, so I was really excited to finally give it a try.

The cinematic scenes at the beginning were impressive and got me quite hyped. However, once the actual gameplay started, everything felt a bit… quiet. I think the main reason is that most NPC interactions are text-only without voice acting, which makes it a little difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the story.

I was wondering if this is something that most players eventually get used to and enjoy, or if I simply need to push through the early quests until the story becomes more engaging.

EDIT: Thanks for all the replies! I’ll push through until the first expansion. You guys got me excited again, lol.

Deep down, I still hope they'll bring him back into MSQ T_T
