Do I see a male AA EV there? Or is it just me?
Virtue signalling creeps into SquareEnix by way of transgendered Ark Angel Elvaan. It's all about "diversity" now. Gotta have your token trans in your fantasy game about swords, dragons, and magic.

It's just that some things are wrong or borderline wrong.
Other than that I love the art direction/design, personally.

I like the wallpaper, I have it as my desktop image now but without the 18 anni logo

Its quite good, imo.
Whats it? Ark Angel vs a random pick up ally with SMN, WHM, BST, DRG, COR and SAM.
Seems like those yells with <Any job is welcomed>, everyone comes DD and someone else mules is their WHM. At least the SMN can still conduit the Ark Angels.
EDIT: and a NIN. Probably for tanking

Whos the artist that makes the game and expansions covers?
He could be the artist. His art is kinda different than the game itself but its quite unique characteristic

Pretty good artwork to me, FF artwork usually looks drastically different from the in-game appearances since it's generally concept art. This one is a lot closer to in-game than most, though AATT and AAHM kind of blended in to the other AAs for me at fist and I couldn't see them at all lol.

I bet they paid a lot of money for those to be made too.
They just need to do art competitions, another mmo I play does that often and they get some great artwork.
I've always been surprised they don't do more of that, seems like doing a competition giving away a free year of FFXI and some glamour in-game item would be a helluva lot cheaper than paying employed artists.
Then again, there's probably a ton of copyright issues that bringing in non-contracted artists when dealing with copyrighted images that I'm not thinking about.

it doesn't look like an Amano at all and it literally has the artist's name at the bottom

This maintenance to fix the relic gear augments from deeds or address the exploit? Everyone cleaned out the Orb+1 supply in expectation of the price climb, but I didn't see anything where they confirmed the bug report of the exploit.

Not sure anything specific has been said- but let's be honest, when you close a gaping loophole in a situation, you don't give advance notice of doing it.

Well of course... Not what i was saying
All bugs reported go through a process. They either get moved to "this is actually a bug" section, moved to the "this is not a bug" section, or deleted. They did this with the last exploit and even with the BST pet buff glitch I submitted a few months back. I am saying I did not see this particular bug moved or even accepted as a bug, so it may just be a fix to the relic armor from deeds, since they acknowledged that issue the day before in a notice

They don't necessarily make that process transparent via the forums.

Quote: Final Fantasy XI made quite a few waves for being the first mainline title to hit an Xbox platform. Released on Xbox 360, PS2 and PC, one of the greatest mysteries is why XI never appeared on PS3. Was there ever a plan to bring it to Sony’s seventh-gen platform?
[YF] During that time, I wasn’t in a position in which I would have known about this matter, so I’m not sure why that decision was made. I would have to imagine it was very much a business-related decision.
[AM] I also wasn’t part of making that decision at all, so this is pure speculation, but I believe it was because they were planning to release FFXIV — which was to be the successor of FFXI — on the PS3.
Though it’s been four years since the service shut down on PS2 and Xbox 360, the game still maintains a healthy player base on PC. What gameplay and design elements do you think have kept players online all this time?
[YF] As an MMORPG, FFXI is a game that requires cooperation and playing with others more so than almost any other game. Simultaneous play with others might make any game fun, but in FFXI you fight against monsters over many days and weeks with party members, and players must support each other to succeed. Spending time with those comrades is very fun and valuable, and it also creates a strong connection between those people.
In FFXI, that connection between people — in other words, the bond — contributes to shaping Vana’diel. Personally, I feel that having this kind of environment that easily allows for these bonds to be formed is what has helped up maintain what we have.
[AM] First, I believe that the time players spent playing FFXI and the characters that they leveled up have become so precious that they can’t easily forget about them. Additionally, I believe that not all gamers are looking for games with battles that require you to have good reflexes and react in direct and intuitive ways.[/b]
Only, they did have FFXI playable on the PS3. While it wasn’t a direct version, but rather the first few PS3 models being backwards compatible enough to allow it to be played. After the model that came bundled with Metal Gear Solid 4, I think Sony opted not to make the systems able to play it.

I speculate adjustments to those jobs, /conspiracytheory.

New (old) ambuscade: dullahans.
Just saw a vid with SMN burning. Description in Bg says this one is a pita to deal with it.

Dullahan can be done with SMN or PUP or ranged. It's not the worst month.

1) You bring jobs that use guns.
2) SHOOT IT WITH THE GUN
I just remember the gimmicks were dumb but its an easy fight overall.
Also you can just stun castigation so there's that.
