Those "Abusers" protected and regains a ton of my rights, especially with laws regarding my spouse and sexuality. I've seen them do this for twenty years.

Those "Abusers" have a tried and tested track record of voting in my interests. To the point where I actually get annoyed that I cannot find a good reason to primary them. I can see blue dogs in other districts, but they aren't the people I can vote on. Only campaign against.

Those "Abusers" have weathered crazy amounts of absolutely batshit insane abuse, much of it very personal, from our mutual enemies. More than a few of those "Abusers" have had people literally try and assassinate them.

I'm going with people who have solved problems; and when, not if but when, your candidate is up for the block I'll be supporting them too. because we are allies and our political enemies want us dead.

So again: Fall in line or die. Those are our options. If you don't like it that's really too bad. Such is life.

He's not too hard, as the entry floor, but damn is it a bopping fight.

Not bored of it yet!

The Great Depression fucked a lot of wealthy people up and turned the entire nation against them. It can happen again.

One might argue it already is happening. Right now. In real time.

Be safe.

Our options on the left are to unite yesterday or die.

There isn't really another option anymore. People are dying, now, because we can't rally.

I recently read an article that suggested the best retaliation would be to stop enforcing US intellectual property in the EU. One of the biggest exports they have is media, if we would stop enforcing their copyright it would cost them a lot of money.

Depression.

It's a depression.

A large chunk of the handful of remaining Black Mage mains are moving to Pictomancer over these changes.

That should say enough, it's not really a great change.

I didn't mind her, but there was too much of her.

There was an infographic that showed the sheer amount of dialogue that she had (in addition to over a hundred quest objectives to talk to her), and she beat out every single forerunner character in every expansion except Alphinaud in sheer amounts of dialogue. She had more dialogue than some of them combined. (Alphinaud has 5,275 lines across all expansion MSQ, Alisae 3,162. Wuk Lamot has 3,077 in a single expansion and in the entire MSQ ranks third for most lines and fifth for most words overall.)

7.2 had her finally step back a bit and introduced us to a new story forerunner, and it immediately was much better received than 7.0 and 7.1

Also Wuk's English VA got utterly screwed by the English voice director. They plainly gave her horrendous directions (much like they did Talesin Jaffe and Sam Reigel) and little context to the events during a scene. The cutscene in the third trial is significantly better after the retake. It was night and day.

For those interested, here's the entire analysis: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/1hvuz9t/i_analyzed_all_the_dialogue_from_arr_20_to/
