So silly -- we already see this for a second then when people who are using sit chair command are loading in an area. Thanks for nothing? ><

Lmao that invisible chair sit emote has to be the laziest thing I've ever seen from a game dev.

Indeed!

Looks like it's going to be that and the kitchen thingy I guess.

Kind of surprised there isn't a new cipher this campaign...

Seriously. They couldn't have done another Mog Garden assistant being a trust? Yeestog and Susuroon are still waiting to see combat D:

It says "each available for 500 points" so maybe there is a secret synthesis where you combine two to get cube +1 which gives the real thing when used? That would still be lame though, if the base cube could never become visible. These things are all for the looks so what is the point of giving us an invisible chair... except trolling?

It's probably designed because of the loading glitch where sometimes you get people on invisible chairs, thus a reference to that. I think it's funny.

"Laziest thing done by the FFXI devs" is quite the claim, to the point where I can't even believe it's true. I'm wracking my brain trying to remember something they did that was even lazier, because I know they must have.

You know, they could have just made it so you float a few feet higher than normal and have a little vertical swaying, and then it woulda at least looked like that leisurely float that Balamor does.

Seriously.

What the ***?

Edit: Guess I'll be grabbing up Rem's Tales on all my chars to save myself a couple hours of BCs? Ugh.

I just realized that it was probably added so now people can go find a bazaar mule dressed as Santa and then sit on their lap.

Or find a tarutaru and simple sit on them.

Or to teabag a corpse...

...ugh. It just occurred to me this is just a thinly-veiled *** joke, isn't it?

This is a huge bummer. I saw the dev tracker notes that they were adding a bunch of new items to the login campaign.

I don't expect a new trust every month but only 3 (2 of which are super commons) and upping savory shanks back to 3000 is a huge let down.

Maybe we will see a giant amount available for purchase with various currency again.

They're updating the behavior of a bunch of old trusts at least so the version update will be like getting a bunch of new ones hopefully.

It sucks that they raised Savory Shank back to 3k, and gave us an invisible chair as compensation.

Shame, S-E. Shame.

My vote goes to 2009's bell update. This was especially bitter back then as we were getting almost no new content during that time in FFXI.

"Laziest award" goes to any time the recycled shitty, boring armor designs for good gear when little-used great designs never got the love they deserved.

Fulad-Zereh finally got a new obtainable model, but for the longest time it was a beautiful piece that so so little use because it was like the shittiest drop rate ever.

But here's 20 different pieces that look like a mythril breastplate or some other useless crap.

Luckily they seem to have fixed that issue with SoA.

The bell emote wasn't as lazy because they actually had to do something in order to implement it.

At least one good thing about this login campaign... don't have to make sure to login the mules.

I'll probably do it anyhow just because I've gotten in the habit and I feel oddly incomplete -- like I accidentally left the gas on or a faucet running -- if I don't log them all in now.
