Between the graphical updates and the QOL changes, I’m incredibly excited - and that’s on top of a whole new expansion’s worth of content to play. Very excited to dive in this week (and sad that I’ll be on my laptop and not my gaming PC the next two weekends, RIP)

Also, can’t remember if they’d explicitly said this, but sounds like everyone is getting a fantasia just in case they need it with the character model changes. I don’t think I’ll need mine, but still really thoughtful on their part!

Thanks for the heads up!

Everything up to the word “Time” is in fact the name of the game, from a cursory skim

Glad to see Tim Rogers on that playlist - guy is one of the best in the biz

Wait, that’s awesome! I’ll have to check that out :)

Getting big Regular Show vibes from this, haha

Heck yeah :) Really looking forward to diving back in. The new areas look stellar!

Gottem

Yeah, that’s fair

Yessss, so excited! Loved the movie, glad I got to see it in theaters

Very interesting, thank you for sharing!

Yeah, I’m quite happy with the changes! I do kinda miss the softer lighting on the ethereal background, but this version really sings in the low light environments. I’m so excited to not look like a ghoul in indoor environments!

I’ve heard “fence needs fixin,” but not this - “needs fixed” mixes tenses too 🤔

Thanks so much for all you do! I love these writeups :)

Well spoken

Yippee!

Jenny’s a national treasure

Yeah, it feels like in the side by side the actual sun is maybe in a different spot, so it looks more jarringly different than it could. Mostly I just want better handling of low light/mood light - as it is right now, I feel like low light makes characters look unintentionally spooky unless you’ve manually turned character lighting way up

Overall I’m pretty pumped for the changes, as far as I currently understand them! I main DRK and I think I like the concept of combining Blood Weapon and Delirium, which seemed like the biggest change for the job. I also generally like the idea of combining actions and follow-ups into one button - as a controller user it’s more comfy, but also it makes room for more skills (especially weavables) in future expansions.

In terms of non-main jobs:

• glad they didn’t do anything crazy to RDM or reaper - both already feel great to play
• excited about this WHM mobility skill!
• as someone who has only dipped their toes into monk, I’m optimistic about the updates! I think being able to check a gauge will be easier on my brain than the current setup. Mostly I hope veterans won’t hate it now, but if it gets me to play the job then I’ll be happy (love my monk glam, haha)

Big if true
