Because I am Alpha. I don't play WOKE games!!!

No, you're a pathetic little boy with a fragile ego. Nobody who claims alpha or that bull crap is anything like the title they give them self. Just grow up and go play CoD.

The issue is if you actually know what "woke" means, FFXIV has been woke since the beginning and has only gotten more "woke" as time goes on, and it's still been ultra-successful the whole time.

No, it has not been woke. Ever. Not since the beginning and not now either.

tell me youre a cutscene skipper without telling me

Wait til they find out how endlessly thristy Haurchefant is in JP dialogue. Talking about the Warrior of Light in skimpy clothing with bulging muscles, and that's just the beginning.

I didn't know Donald Trump played Final Fantasy. Maybe he should stick to golf?

Personally I prefer convicted felons to be in jail cells, not out on golf courses.

Look at this gaslighting. The localizer is a pink haired DEI hire focused on "demonstrating proper respect for cultures" and the game has a male VA for a female character. Only normies wouldn't notice this stuff. Anyone with half a brain is growing in their ability to spot this garbage when it is needlessly injected into a thriving IP. Never refunded a Final Fantasy game in over 20+ years. This is a sad day for me as a Final Fantasy fan because I am not interested in supporting more woke slop.

Can someone translate this incoherent gibberish into English?

They have no playtime on FFXIV despite owning it so..

His entire profile is like a FF altar, so he may use the launcher like myself.

Sad to see they're a FF12 fan as well. You'd think the entire plot of FF12's geopolitical intrigue wouldn't be lost on them.

EDIT: OH. "Christian Gaming Community." Now it all makes sense.

I have a feeling that Azem would feel a strong sense of pity for you.

I do consider the game woke, and boy I have been playing this for 10 years, just have a look at my gameplay time. Anyway allow me to explain my point by a comparison.

Lets us make a narrative comparison to another girl we met just recently, which is Zero. The narrative related to Zero was perfectly done, the introduction, the pace, the development of her character and the culmination at the end of her story line was perfect. She completed the Hero's Journey, learned not only from we player but from everyone else, not only the scions. She grew and become something much more than what she was, and at the end, she saw us, the player, as an equal. I absolutely loved her for everything she was, I myself, the real person could relate to her.

Now let us take Wuk Lamat. Her character never develops much more than what was presented to us at the beginning. She don't follow the hero's journey, she is already a hero and leads everything, the very typical Mary Sue in all aspects. The narrative took away the agency from us, the player, and gave it to her. We just happen to be there to watch her. At the end of her journey I did not want to relate to her; I felt so unimportant and absent from almost all aspects of the MSQ. I was just there, nothing else. Note that I did not find anything strange with her voice in english, it just don't bother me at all. I wanted to point out how different this narrative was, how stray it was from all other expansions before it. Not only her character development is messed, almost all characters are. Try to compare this expansion to all others and you will notice how bizarre the narrative is, how untypical of Square Enix FF14 development team it is. I just wonder what game consultant company they have hired to ''fix'' the story for the ''modern audiences''. We see the same very thing, the same very contamination in many other games out there that were good. Just see how divisive this MSQ was in the community. People knows there is something really wrong with it, no matter how much cope the others have. I would not mind compare Wuk Lamat to Galadriel from the Amazon Rings of Power, and I don't need to add anything more to that.

At the end of the day, this is just a game; but also its my money and my time, which I have invested here in the last 10 years. It was no wasted, from 2.0 to 6.0 it was amazing, but if 7.0 on wards will be like this, I better use my money and my time somewhere else. I believe you all should be mindful of that.
