gaming Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Thread
GreySentinel replied to EquestriaGuy's topic in Media Discussion
Thanks for the information. I'm glad that gear shouldn't be too much of a problem, thanks to the main questline. I was hoping that a few people on this thread were part of the same free company, but I guess the large variety of servers prevented that. I'm looking into rejoining very soon. The new content looks very exciting. Edit: I checked out the monthly subscription fee, and it adds up pretty high, especially compared to my Xbox Live Gold subscription. I have to pay $17 more for the former, and that's only for half a year. For a full year of Xbox Live Gold, I pay less than half a year of XIV. It may be expensive for me, but I'm sure it's not for others. For those who aren't concerned about the subscription, I hope you enjoy the game, because it's a very enjoyable experience. -
If You Could Hug Any Pony, Which One Would It Be and Why?
GreySentinel replied to best poni's topic in Sugarcube Corner
I'm pretty much willing to hug any pony, if they're sad or having a bad day. Biased answer: Probably Applejack. If she's friendly enough to shake hooves with a stranger after greeting them, then she probably doesn't mind hugs. -
I've got two problems to deal with. The first one is about my current pace after starting over. Thanks to college, my progression has slowed down considerably, and I'm not even near high rank caravan! I was hyped about hunting online with people here, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon. My second problem isn't as bad. I'm trying to main three weapon classes. I'm keeping greatsword in the list, but lance and charge blade are competing for the second spot. For the third spot, I'm going for a more mobile/support weapon. the weapons that I'm considering for that spot are the sword and shield, the bow, and the light bowgun. The heavy bowgun is a possibility, too. The weapon loadout that I'm going for is one heavy hitting weapon, one defensive weapon, and a mobile/support weapon. That's pretty much it. If anyone doesn't mind, I'd like advice/feedback on the weapon loadout. Also, are there any hunters who are currently starting or are close to the beginning? I'm pretty much desperate enough to look for other hunters working on hr1 quests.

Yard work is done. It wasn't too bad, but I bent my thumb's nail backwards. Dat bleeding, though... After I get a late lunch, I'm going back to gaming.
-
Well, it's time for me to do some yard-work. The yard is huge, but I could use the exercise, anyway. I'll see ya'll in an hour, or so.

I'm making this entry, because I wanted to reflect upon it, as well as the possibility of receiving feedback. During a good majority of my years in middle school, I was timid and I did not have many friends. This led to me being a target for bullies nearly every week. It was absolute suffering, and it even progressed to high school. After graduating from high school, I thought back on my bad middle school and high school experiences. since then, it convinced me that my inability to defend myself was a sign of weakness. Skipping ahead two and a half years later, my personality has taken a major shift. I'm more of an extrovert, and I'm not afraid to retaliate when attacked verbally or physically. These changes made me feel like a stronger person, but is introversion with non-retaliation weakness? I still don't know the exact answer to that question. From the day my personality reached the climax of that shift, I forced myself to approach life differently. I relied on both a good moral compass, and my willingness to defend the defenseless came to light. If a friend was treated poorly by someone, It would be a matter of seconds for me to step in and help. If a friend simply wanted someone to talk to, I'd be there. When I summarized my newfound personality a year or so ago, I noticed that I had a hero complex. I had goals and aspirations to make at least the city that I live in a better place. I wanted to become a police officer, and I still do to this day. My confidence in myself allowed me to focus on ensuring that others felt safe, rather than myself. Overall, I'm happy with how I've changed. Sometimes I wish I changed earlier, but I keep reminding myself that I wouldn't be the same person today, if i did. Edit: I may have found the answer, regarding introversion. Sometimes, it takes more strength to simply endure and not retaliate.

gaming Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Thread
GreySentinel replied to EquestriaGuy's topic in Media Discussion
It has nearly been a year since I've played FFXIV! I decided to drop the game, since I couldn't get a good gaming group and I hate playing MMORPGs solo. I pretty much tanked only, so I had a high level paladin while I was working on warrior. I do miss XIV, and I'm leaning toward coming back, though. If I do, I'm starting from scratch. Does anyone here have a friendly beginning to endgame group that's open to new members? Playing with randoms that get pissed off from one mistake kinda turned me off from the game.- 46 replies

Yikes, it's been seven days since I've made a post? I'm terrible at being an active forum member... I've got the weekend to enjoy, and I'm hyped about that. How's everyone here doing?
-
I decided to upgrade to a new 3ds XL recently, and thanks to Nintendo's restrictions and Gamestop, I couldn't transfer my data. Now, I'm starting over after losing 150+ hours! It's not too bad, though. I still enjoy 4U, and I'm still trying to find the best weapon class for me.
-
My Calculus course is done for this week, and I'm ready to relax! Hello, weekend! How are ya'll doing?
-
Hey, I’m back….again. Sorry, I’m terrible at keeping things updated. Hopefully, I can break that habit. How’s everyone doing today?
-
That feel when you have to decide between two games when the fall semester is less than two weeks away…
-
-
It’s been a very long time since I’ve logged on here. I’m frustrated that I’ve let my personal problems overwhelm me enough to prevent me from talking with the only good group of friends that I have. Despite this, I’m glad to be back.
-
Just for the heck of it, I asked my sister what element of harmony I’m most similar to. She said laughter. I certainly wasn't expecting that!
-
I thought that trying arena would narrow down my preferred weapon, but it only made things worse! Almost all blademaster choices look appealing... @FortyTwo42: I haven't reached G-rank yet, but I might be able to help. All three skills that you mentioned are great, in my opinion. About evade, it depends on which weapon you're using and how comfortable you are with evading. If you have great timing and reflexes, you might not even need Evade+2. If you can settle with Evade+1, it might leave some room for other skills or improvements.
-
It looks like I'll be working on the family yard soon. Afterwards, I'm cool with chatting. I've got a lot of catching up to do here!
-
I used to think that I'm at my best with defensive weapons like the lance and gunlance, until I used the greatsword. Its power is unbelievable, and I don't need to worry about elements! It surprised me multiple times, because it felt like a hunt ended too quickly. If I need to take down a monster with sheer power, I know which weapon I'll use!
-
It's an awesome feeling to finally be here, again! I never gave myself the chance to come back until now, because I was dealing with many problems offline. How've y'all been?
-
(This rant isn't targeted towards any of you. I'm just venting about randoms online.) I'm honestly tired of playing online, only to get my hopes ruined. I shouldn't have even bothered trying to play with randoms. There's no point in giving your lobby a name that implies all are welcome, if you're just gonna kick someone within seconds after they say hello. I'll just solo my way through everything, just like I did in 3U. Nothing seems too difficult, anyway. I'd rather take down a Deviljho alone than wade through a bunch of jerks to find a good online group. Knowing my luck, a good majority of my peers on campus probably refuse to allow anyone in their tight-knit, secluded group. It's their loss, not mine.
-
I'm honestly stuck on a tough choice. I've just hunted a Gore Magala during a 5* caravan quest, but I'm pretty sure I'm not even remotely close to leaping into online. I don't know if I should keep trying to catch up, or just give up and play at my own leisure.
-
Apparently, I wasn't as close to being 100% healthy as I thought. At least I get to play video games while I recover. This illness better go away by the start of the summer or fall semester.
-
I'm pretty much juggling video games, and making sure that I don't get burnt out on any of them. Despite what I've said and my actions, my folks still think I’m sick or not healthy. Either way, I’ll be relaxing for quite a while.
-
What about "flying feather" or "horse apples"? I can only recall those two, at the moment. Since countryisms exist in Equestria, "tarnation" and plenty others could also apply. -
Nice idea! I can't get the set right now, but it will be one of my main sets. I was slacking off for the past few weeks, but now I'm trying to catch up to everyone here. I'm still stuck on offline Lv 4!
