Glamour & Other Miscellany in the World of Final Fantasy XIV
Several months ago now, in the leadup to the release of Stormblood, I spent several posts talking about Heavensward in retrospective, and in what I think was my most massive one of those posts, I talked about the overall endgame structure in Final Fantasy XIV. You can check out that full post if you’re curious (it’s a long read!), but […]

It’s been a week since the launch of Stormblood, and following all the thinking I did on Heavensward as FFXIV’s first expansion came to a close, the new one has really given me a lot to think about.

There won’t be a full post today, as it’s the first day of Early Access, and I want to dive into leveling Samurai and all of the new stuff we have to look forward to! I hope everyone had a great pre-patch Maintenance. As you dive in today, remember to take care of yourself! Eat, […]

We did get new info on Stormblood, FFXIV’s next expansion today, including confirmation that the expansion will focus on Ala Mihgo and the Garleans and that we’ll be getting “multiple” new jobs, one of which seems to be Red Mage, judging by Yoshida sporting a Scarlet Witch t-shirt on stage (much like he wore a Batman shirt […]

I’m gonna go ahead and throw myself under the bus here and give my predictions (most of which, I’m sure, will be incredibly wrong) for what we’ll learn about FFXIV’s 4.0 Expansion at the upcoming Fan Festivals. What info will be given at each one is hard to know, but I think we can anticipate […]

This post is the continuation of my thoughts on raiding in FFXIV that I started last week. This isn’t normally the kind of topic I cover, but given how important it is to the game as a whole, I’ve been thinking about it a lot now that we know the final tier of Alexander is […]

Over the last couple of weeks, Yoshida has given a number of interviews in the lead up to Patch 3.4 (and also, in the longer haul, the lead up to the next expansion). I’ve linked to a few up above, but there have been others, all covering the same range of topics. Most of the […]
