they should've put almost the same active time battle from ffviir to ffxvi, man it's boring playing with just ONE char, it's not a final fantasy game like that and gimme a break, if they don't want to put a turn mode like < ffx then it's nothing wrong using the same script from ffviir and xv

motive: cid never uses a thunder azgdsgc

YOUR FFXVI CONENT OH MY GOOOD The way I GASPED when I went into the tag and saw another post of yours!!!

[charlottedabookworm]

me at the start of the ffxvi prologue demo: grinning wildly totally relaxed adrenaline high

me at the end of the ffxvi prologue demo: wide eyed, controller in lap, flinching every time i hear or see ifrit attack as clive screams…

me: i am going to finish ffxvi today

ffxvi: oh yeah?

ffxvi:

ffxvi: fucking bet

#i was Not Expecting 11 new side quests to suddenly spawn into existence #so yeah i guess i’m doing those today instead #i was considering doing some hunts before heading for Origin but nevermind #sidequests are way more important #char plays ffxvi #char does vidya games #ffxvi spoilers

[charlottedabookworm]

doing this side quest about finding this little girls ‘pet’ and i’m just sitting here side-eying all the descriptions because yes the child could be talking about an animal but i have a very bad feeling that this ‘pet’ who was ‘let out of her pen’ and ‘should be tied up when [child] is done playing with her’ and ‘is very quiet and kind and lets [child] stroke her hair’ and ‘hasn’t been fed since yesterday’ is a branded

ngl i am surprisingly invested in the romantic musings of Asta ‘i am attracted to every man in the hideaway’

every time i’m here i stop by to see who she’s sighing over today it’s great

#char plays ffxvi #ffxvi spoilers #currently she’s debating between goetz and gav

[charlottedabookworm]

the leviathan skills are very interesting not really my thing for the most part but tsunami is great for mobs and the feat + triangle is fucking great cos your limit break just zooms to full

but also i’d probably not use any of these if not for the eikon ability sets you can now save lol

…this is giving me the same dawning dread that the ‘a number of cutscenes are about to play in sequence’ notice gives me in ffxiv

[charlottedabookworm]

me screaming at my tv that there are three rosfields in this pub please just let them talk to each other joshua your brother is downstairs with your uncle clive your brother is upstairs cmon don’t miss each other let them speak ffs

[charlottedabookworm]

just occured to me that if baby clive + joshua ended up in ffxv then it’d throw the ffxv lot off so much cos here are two sons of a ruler of a kingdom and the elder son is smiling at them and telling them proudly that he’s his brothers shield, first shield of rosaria, his brothers protector and not his father’s heir despite being his oldest son

just- gladio expecting a spoiled princeling and getting a fellow shield but being unable to process that with clive also being joshua’s fullblooded broyher
