Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
By Artemicion 2012-09-18 08:13:49
I suppose its fair that you need to complete an action before one would be able to run for their life or dodge an attack, however, I think there should be some sort of meta mechanic that would allow you to more efficiently cancel, interrupt, and under certain circumstances, enable to "run and gun". But doing so would make combat a lot more dynamic and real time based similar to Tera than something more simplified and static like most MMOs stick with.

Oh Ina... You might not know the answer to this but my billing period is coming up soon ... it still shows me on the 3 month billing ... is that still active or will it change to a 1 month sub? I know they got rid of the 3 month thing I thought?

I'd change it manually just in case it doesn't do so automaticly.

Arte: Some weapon skills/class skills allow you to do a barrel roll during casting, I think.
At least I remember doing that during some skills before lol

I can only pray FF14 doesn't ever have "You must wait longer to use that command."
Every time I see that I want to punch babies. Delayed but the closest thing there is to that is the previously mentioned animation lock where you can't move around after activating a WS, spell, ability, or light shot for a second or 2, auto attack is not affected by this though.
you know I wish BRD got Auto light shot ... I swear i'm getting carpal tunnel from spamming my enter key on them damn van darnus fights :| and all the other ones rofl. I use the number keys... I have no idea how people can play scrolling left and right on the quick bar and using enter.
I suppose its fair that you need to complete an action before one would be able to run for their life or dodge an attack, however, I think there should be some sort of meta mechanic that would allow you to more efficiently cancel, interrupt, and under certain circumstances, enable to "run and gun". But doing so would make combat a lot more dynamic and real time based similar to Tera than something more simplified and static like most MMOs stick with. Yeh so far it's much more like a tradional rpg where using your abilities properly is more important then your ability to run, jump etc. The clostes thing to that is that some monsters have abilitys where you can move out of the area before blocking, or garuda where behing behind the pillars in the fight blocks some. That said they arn't lazying out on boss fights, so far they all have something that keeps it from just being engage till they die, Van Darnus for example summons meteors that need to be destroyed by a ranged job from the upper level of the battlefield before they hit as well as having an AoE shaped like a doughnut which I though was neat XD

This is true when looking at a certain subreddit for the first time.
Why do people have such strange hobbies?

No one ever shouts for VW anymore, game's so dead lately.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
