Shocker, the nation of braggart pacifists are actually useless. I'll enjoy ransacking their shit when they imprison me for nonsense.
At this point, if they start fucking around even further once we actually get to Old Sharlayan, I'll be surprised if we don't get the option to flat out tell them "Look, I'm the fucking Warrior of Light AND Darkness. I've saved TWO WHOLE WORLDS multiple times over by now. I've kicked the asses of gods, god machines, demons, and Ascians. Now how about you just give me what I came here for and I don't end up dramatically overthrowing the entire structure of your civilization? I've gotten really good at doing that sort of thing by now."

"My name's Fourchenault Leveilleur. My dad was killed while trying to summon an entire pantheon to stop a falling moon that actually housed a extremely pissed off primal that was older than the three previous major civilizations combined, but I still think the Garlemald-Eorzea conflict is about land disputes." Somehow this dude managed to travel the exact path to not notice the rapidly cropping up mini-dalamund towers, complete with pulsing violet spotlights.
But he kinda does have a point, that 'amass a big army and charge at the problem' plan has rarely worked for Eorzea, and the leveilleurs specifically.
TL;DR: Eorzea's success has far less to do with the superiority of acknowledging war as a grim necessity and far more to do with the warrior of light's ability to pull seven Echo users out of their ass.
For all the fighting Louisoix did, he at best minimised the damage from the calamity, and at worst only hastened it's arrival by making the garleans more desperate. The actual army he raised didn't actually play a big part in preventing it.
Then, after five years of repairing how fucked things got there, Alphinaud and Alisaie go investigating. Alisaie's the more combative of the two, so she's probably already a lost cause, while Alphinaud is more diplomatic, so maybe there's hope he won't be an idiot.
Alphinaud starts the Crystal Braves.
Alphinaud nearly gets himself and the entire team Luigi assembled executed for treason, and these assholes use the money to pivot into fighting the garleans... by summoning a primal of pure hatred and destruction, which then gets matched by a gigantic warmachina from older-than-allagan tech. Either one of them could have backfired and destroyed the world, and in both cases required someone to sacrifice themselves.
Primals themselves embody the desperation of a losing side to win at all costs, and several - most notably Titan - lie squarely at the feet of warmongering Eorzeans. To say nothing of Ishgard and their 1000 years of war because they stole a dragon's eyes.
With the track record Eorzea's had, is it really that compelling of an argument to say that these large scale conflicts are even having a neutral effect, let alone a beneficial one?
The scions seem to think that whole "we are neutrual fuck you" thing is an act. Im inclined to believe that, as they seem more advanced and may even have some knowledge or connection to the end of days that the other nations lack.
I'm down to just a few triple triad cards yet... one of which is locked behind another 58 kholusia fates.

It's a sad state of affairs when these YouTubers have me rooting for Pyromaniac to go full tinfoil autism on FFXIV (which he's in the process of doing, with the help of the usual community lovebombing when he streams it on Fridays). At least Pyro makes content, even if it is bullshit glued together with batshit. Meoni and his Ben Stein impressionistic ass provides less content in six minutes than watching a Live Letter raw for six minutes, and I don't even know what the fuck they're saying in those.
Of course, the FFXIV community sort of deserves the shit video content they get, since they do put 90% of their focus on lovebombing people running MSQ just to throw them out once that's done. Granted, it's fucking fantastic watching some of these people when the honeymoon's over. Scottzone still gets the prize for 2020, I think: has full honeymoon MSQ journey, gets to raids, makes a video going "why can't these be more like WoW raids?", gets told to go back to WoW, cries about meanie death threats, and rage quits from the internet.

Do you mean Pyromancer?
Yes, fingers go hurr durr autopilot but yes. Man's an absolute loon but he's also the kind of content FFXIV is missing: people who think and talk about the game instead of just showing a playthrough of it, reacting to whatever, or just regurgitating shit slowly enough for YouTube's ad program to slap something on the vid. The only way you usually get that with FF youtubers is when you stuff five or six of them in a stream to blahblah, and then it still devolves into them all trying and failing to be funny.
Why do people watch this shit? I'll never understand.
Yeah I remember him, he wasn't as big as Preach or Asmongold but he was that guy that had an insider in Blizzard and he would come up with bullshit theories about
's lore, also he sounds emotionally unstable or something.Also the ffxiv tubers seem a bit too excited about these
people "moving" to ff14, yet they don't understand it's a really dry period for retail and they will go back once the patch goes live for them to take it apart.

Some of the WoW folks will probably stick around just because the state of WoW being absolute dogshit - doubly so considering most of the XIV tubers are alreadyYeah I remember him, he wasn't as big as Preach or Asmongold but he was that guy that had an insider in Blizzard and he would come up with bullshit theories about

-expats.I'm not sure why they're excited because
- A content creator moving from WoW to XIV isn't going to make XIV a much better stream-worthy game. There will be a slight uptick but I doubt most of the XIV tubers will get anything out of it.
- A content creator moving from WoW to XIV is going to bring part of their audience with them. If Asmongold ever picks the game up for real - lord have mercy for the datacenter his fans flock to.
- While WoW raiders can move over to XIV no problem, XIV doesn't have anything resembling a seasonal Mythic+ dungeon setup. The PVP is also vastly different and frankly the XIV PVP community is so small it's hard to find 72 people to fill out a single Battleground frequently. It's virtually impossible to find 48 people to play Rival Wings and Feast (the 4v4 arena) is solo queue only.
Wait what? I thought Feast had 4v4 premades.Some of the WoW folks will probably stick around just because the state of WoW being absolute dogshit - doubly so considering most of the XIV tubers are already

I know it's a double edged sword but I hope he goes to Crystal. I'll tolerate the mouth-breathing 14 year olds as long as they're giving the ERPers all kinds of hell. The children will at least have the excuse of age to suck at the game.
