Wondrous Tails

A laid-back and periodically funny podcast about Final Fantasy XIV and the game's community. Hosts: @SmorezPoptart, @kristen_aka, @doubleyewdee

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

Oh hi there. We now have a YouTube channel and there's already something on there :O We are now making clips of our recent episodes and they'll be available on the Wednesdays we don't have an episode (bi-weekly). Our past episode is now clipped and live!

hey, we defo have a pod coming this week, pan was just late submitting the info to get it edited+published

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

did y'all know ninja is fun now and not a frustrating mess? why did nobody inform me

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

@SmorezPoptart at least you can wear hats irl 🙃

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

@ff14forums_txt Got us a real modern era Descartes here

@tokotamer @ff14forums_txt *laughs in mentor horse*

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

@rofldrg Pretty sure they’ve explicitly said island sanctuaries *won’t* have housing so don’t bother hoping, actually. The situation is dire.

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

Here’s a great post with data(!) that demonstrates just how badly SE has mismanaged housing. Over 95% of participants are going home disappointed. https://t.co/54OIs5Hvpo

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

one cool thing about the xiv housing lottery is you can now see, numerically, just how broken the supply for houses is. Hundreds of people with 40-50mil *spare gil* trying to buy just the larges. And Square keeps harping on “removing gil from the economy” …

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

we're delaying our next ep by a week, sorry y'all!

[a bernie sanders meme where I'm once again asking you to target the same people as others in pvp but I was too lazy so I just typed this]

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

Encounter design famously does not factor in things like job capabilities, rotations, etc

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

@drofdelicious after sleeping on it I’m way less against it. I think I’m just exhausted by not having better characters to mourn

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

another pan nuclear take: haurchefant wouldn't be nearly as popular or interesting if the xiv story had any real consequences post-HW, and hand-wavey death prevention in an ultimate is just horrible decision making all-up

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

4/20 pvp it

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

this is terrible advice unless you're on my team in which case yeah

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

The FFXIV housing system should be a case study in game developers doubling down on a mechanic everyone hates in lieu of just doing what the vast majority of players would prefer

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

probably should’ve linked the page huh https://t.co/nFbpekS3wo

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]

this is a very cool github page full of ffxiv resources for users and devs. I love how much bigger and more open the xiv dev community is becoming

[Wondrous Tails @Wondrous_Tails]
