Hello Adventurers! As Valentione's Day has just passed us by, we thought now would be a great time to show some of the characters in Final Fantasy XIV some love. As it just so happens, GPOSERS had kicked off the month with a post on Bluesky that links to a FFXIV character Tiermaker. And thus, after recording for three or so hours… and many… many more hours of editing after the fact, we now present to you The Official Carbuncle Chronicle Character Rankings: From ARR to Endwalker. But also, we talk a little bit about what we are excited for in the upcoming patch of 7.2: Seekers of Eternity.Spoiler Levels: Archon Loaf! Baked with either fish or vegetable flour, this fluffy loaf of rye bread is?from a nutritional standpoint?wholesome indeed. OK, so rather than fish or vegetable flour, this no-less fluffy loaf of a podcast is baked with love (and hate) for the many great (and terrible) NPCs that form the backbone of the MMORPG we all enjoy! So spoilers will, in fact, be aplenty.OSMnotesThank you to GPOSERS for the great idea prompt for the podcast topic!

Is Sony really going to give us PSVR and Ragnarok on PC? How about the last two Final Fantasy games? Why aren't more games integrating Twitch like Frostpunk 2? What's going on with Star Wars Acolyte. And what does Josh think of his first 20 levels in World of Warcraft? Exciting News for VR Enthusiasts: Sony PSVR2 PC Compatibility on the Horizon Virtual reality (VR) fans have a reason to rejoice! Sony is working towards expanding the reach of its PSVR2 (PlayStation VR2) beyond the confines of the PlayStation 5. Recent reports reveal that Sony is developing an adapter to enable PC compatibility for the PSVR2, slated for release in 2024. This move could significantly enhance the VR gaming landscape, allowing a broader audience to experience the high-quality immersive content PSVR2 promises. Sony's Ambitious Plans for PSVR2 Sony's plans to support PSVR2 on PC were highlighted in an article by Road to VR, which discusses the company's intention to integrate PSVR2 with SteamVR. This integration aims to bring the exceptional capabilities of the PSVR2 to PC gamers, making it compatible with a plethora of VR titles available on SteamVR. This initiative aligns with Sony's broader strategy to embrace cross-platform compatibility and extend the lifecycle and user base of its VR hardware . Technical Steps Towards Integration According to Twisted Voxel, Sony is actively working on an adapter that will facilitate this PC integration. This adapter is expected to bridge the technological gap between the PSVR2 and PCs, ensuring seamless connectivity and performance. The adapter will likely address issues related to tracking, input compatibility, and other technical challenges inherent in adapting console-specific hardware to PC environments . Certification Milestone Achieved Adding to the credibility of these reports, Korea has certified an adapter for PSVR2, marking a significant step towards its global availability. The certification process is a critical hurdle in bringing any new technology to market, ensuring it meets specific regulatory and safety standards. The certification in Korea indicates that Sony is on track with its development timeline and is likely to meet its planned 2024 release . What This Means for VR Gaming The introduction of PSVR2 compatibility on PC is poised to revolutionize the VR gaming experience. PC gamers will gain access to PSVR2's advanced features, such as improved resolution, better tracking, and enhanced haptic feedback, which are currently exclusive to PS5 users. This move could also stimulate the VR content ecosystem, encouraging developers to create more versatile and high-quality VR experiences that cater to both console and PC audiences. Looking Forward As we await more detailed announcements from Sony, the anticipation builds for what 2024 holds for VR enthusiasts. The integration of PSVR2 with PC could democratize access to premium VR experiences, making high-quality virtual reality more accessible than ever before. Stay tuned for further updates as we get closer to the official release. The future of VR looks incredibly promising with these exciting developments from Sony. Sources: Road to VR - Sony Plans PSVR2 PC Support via SteamVR in 2024 Twisted Voxel - Sony is Working on PSVR2 Adapter for PC Reddit - Certification Image Exciting Times for PC Gamers: God of War Ragnarok, Final Fantasy 16, and Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth Coming Soon The gaming industry is buzzing with exciting news for PC gamers. Major console exclusives are making their way to the PC platform, broadening their audience and enhancing the gaming experience for many. Among the most anticipated titles are God of War Ragnarok, Final Fantasy 16, and Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth. Here's a closer look at what's happening with these blockbuster games and when PC gamers can expect to get their hands on them. God of War Ragnarok: The Norse Epic Expands Its Realm Fans of the God of War series have been eagerly awaiting the PC port of God of War Ragnarok. According to a recent article from Tech4Gamers, the critically acclaimed game is set to arrive on PC soon. This follows the successful PC port of its predecessor, which opened the franchise to a wider audience and received rave reviews for its enhanced graphics and performance on PC. The upcoming release promises to deliver the same high-quality experience, with potential improvements to leverage the capabilities of high-end gaming rigs . Final Fantasy 16 and Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth: Timed Exclusivity Nears Its End Square Enix's flagship series, Final Fantasy, is also gearing up to grace PC screens with two of its latest entries. Final Fantasy 16 has been a PlayStation 5 exclusive, but as noted by GamesHub, the game's exclusivity period is nearing its end. Naoki Yoshida, the game's producer, hinted at a PC release, though no exact date has been confirmed yet. The anticipation is high as fans expect an official announcement soon . Similarly, Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth is another title that has been locked to the PlayStation 5. TheGamer reported that the exclusivity period for this highly anticipated sequel will conclude, making a PC port likely in the near future. The end date of the exclusivity has been revealed, indicating that PC players won't have to wait too long to dive back into the adventures of Cloud and his companions . Square Enix's Strategy: Accelerating PC Releases Additional evidence suggests that Square Enix is expediting the release of their major titles on PC. Rock Paper Shotgun recently highlighted that the Kingdom Hearts series is making its way to Steam in June. This move indicates a broader strategy by Square Enix to bring their popular franchises to a wider PC audience more swiftly than before . The trend of releasing major titles on PC sooner than in the past could mean that both Final Fantasy 16 and Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth will be available to PC gamers much sooner than initially expected. Conclusion: A New Era for PC Gaming The upcoming PC ports of God of War Ragnarok, Final Fantasy 16, and Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth mark a significant shift in the gaming industry. These releases not only expand the audience for these critically acclaimed titles but also demonstrate a growing recognition of the PC platform's importance. As the lines between console and PC gaming continue to blur, players can look forward to experiencing the best of both worlds. Stay tuned for official release dates and prepare your gaming rigs for these epic adventures! Sources: Tech4Gamers - God of War Ragnarok PC Port Soon GamesHub - Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Exclusive PC Release TheGamer - Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth State of Play PS5 Exclusive End Date Revealed Rock Paper Shotgun - Kingdom Hearts is Coming to Steam in June Frostpunk 2's Innovative Faction Voting Mechanic: A Game-Changer with Twitch Integration The highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed survival strategy game, Frostpunk, is set to introduce a groundbreaking new feature that could redefine how players interact with game narratives. Frostpunk 2 will incorporate a faction voting mechanic that leverages Twitch integration, creating a dynamic and interactive experience for both players and viewers. The Power of Faction Voting In a recent article by Rock Paper Shotgun, the developers of Frostpunk 2 revealed that the game's success may hinge on its innovative faction voting system. This mechanic will allow players to influence the game world through collective decision-making. As factions within the game vie for power and resources, players can cast their votes to determine the course of action. This feature promises to add a layer of complexity and engagement, as players must navigate the political landscape and the consequences of their choices. Twitch Integration: A New Era of Interaction One of the most exciting aspects of this new mechanic is its integration with Twitch. Viewers on the popular streaming platform will have the ability to participate in faction voting, effectively becoming part of the game's ecosystem. This integration will enable streamers to engage their audiences in real-time decision-making processes, blurring the lines between players and spectators. Andy, Nick, and Josh have praised this move and questioned why more game development studios haven't embraced Twitch integration. They argue that incorporating Twitch into game mechanics not only promotes the game but also fosters emergent gameplay and enhances interaction between streamers and their audiences. By involving viewers directly in the gameplay, developers can create unique and memorable experiences that drive both engagement and publicity. The Impact on Game Development Twitch integration in Frostpunk 2 could set a precedent for future game development. The ability for viewers to influence game outcomes introduces a new form of emergent gameplay, where the unpredictability of player decisions can lead to varied and unexpected storylines. This level of interactivity not only enriches the gaming experience but also provides valuable insights into player preferences and behaviors. Moreover, the promotional benefits of Twitch integration are significant. As streamers showcase the game and involve their audiences, the game's visibility and reach are exponentially increased. This organic form of marketing can attract a wider audience, generating buzz and interest long after the initial release. Looking Ahead Frostpunk 2's faction voting mechanic and Twitch integration represent a bold step forward in interactive game design. As players and viewers collaboratively shape the game's narrative, the potential for rich and diverse storytelling is immense. If successful, this approach could inspire other studios to explore similar integrations, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in gaming. The gaming community eagerly awaits Frostpunk 2's release, not just for its compelling gameplay and narrative depth, but for the innovative ways it plans to engage and connect players worldwide. As Andy, Nick, and Josh highlight, the future of gaming may very well lie in the hands of its audience, and Frostpunk 2 is poised to lead the way. Source: Rock Paper Shotgun - Frostpunk 2 Will Live or Die by Its Faction Voting Mechanic, and the Biggest Faction of All is Twitch The Reluctant Hero:  In the world of Azeroth, a land plagued by ceaseless conflicts and ancient evils, a group of legendary adventurers had risen to stand against the darkness. For many years, this band of heroes battled dragons, demons, old gods, a lich king, and the massive armies of The Alliance. Their deeds were sung in taverns and their names revered across the land. Yet, among them was one holdout—a heroic figure named Josh who refused to join the fight. Josh was a renowned Mage of immense power, known for his mastery over the arcane and his profound wisdom. Despite his talents, he chose a life of solitude, shunning the battlefield and the glory that came with it. His reasons were his own, and no one could persuade him to take up arms, not even his closest friend, Andy. Andy was the heart of the group, a tireless and relentless fighter who never backed down from a challenge. Over the years, he watched as comrades fell and retired, but he remained steadfast. While the other heroes hung up their swords and spells, Andy continued to defend Azeroth with unwavering determination. He never stopped believing in Josh, always hoping that one day, his friend would join the cause. Years turned into decades, and the land saw many victories. Yet, the shadow of evil never truly vanished. Despite the triumphs, a new threat always seemed to emerge, testing the resolve of Azeroth's defenders. Andy, now older and battle-worn, still carried the torch for his fellow heroes. But with each passing year, he felt the weight of his solitary struggle grow heavier. Twenty long years had passed since the first great battle, and Andy found himself standing alone against the rising tide of darkness. One evening, as he sharpened his blade by the fire, a familiar figure approached from the shadows. It was Josh, his old friend, and the sight of him filled Andy with both surprise and hope. "I've seen enough, Andy," Josh said, his voice steady but resolute. "The time has come for me to fight." Andy's heart soared. He had waited for this moment for so long, and now, his patience and persistence had paid off. Without hesitation, he clasped Josh's hand, a silent agreement passing between them. Together, they would face whatever evil threatened their world. The news of Josh joining the fight spread like wildfire. The two heroes, one a stalwart veteran and the other a long-awaited ally, became the beacon of hope for all who fought against the darkness. Their combined strength and unbreakable bond inspired others to take up arms, rekindling the spirit of the old days. In the battles that followed, Andy and Josh proved to be an unstoppable force. They faced dragons whose fiery breath scorched the earth, demons from the deepest pits of the nether, and old gods with powers that could warp reality itself. Each time, they emerged victorious, their synergy and trust in one another shining through. The armies of The Alliance, a constant thorn in their side, fell before their combined might. With every victory, the legend of Andy and Josh grew, their names becoming synonymous with heroism and perseverance. They conquered every foe, their unity unbreakable even in the face of the unknown future. Though the road ahead was uncertain, Andy and Josh were ready to face it together. They knew that as long as they stood side by side, no darkness could overshadow the light they brought to Azeroth. The world had found its champions once more, and the legacy of their friendship would endure through the ages, a testament to the power of hope and the unwavering spirit of true heroes. Josh has joined World of Warcraft.

Lo que no es información ambigua es la cancelación del multijugador de The Last of Us, un secreto a voces que a nosotros nos costaba de creer, pero es así: Sony ya no tiene a su propio Caballo de Troya ¿O sí? porque vuelve a salir los rumores de una supuesta versión mejorada de PS5 y tocaba hablar ya de esta mitad de generación.

Hey there Cubies! With the recent trailers of Final Fantasy 16 there have been some interesting and important conversations happening in the gaming world. FF16 producer and director Naoki Yoshida expressed his feelings about the term JRPG in a recent interview. He let the world know that it is in fact a discriminatory term used to segregate the genre. Most fans of the genre may have been a little surprised to hear this. But looking at when the term was used more heavily by the media it really makes sense as to why. It was during a period in which Japanese developers were going through a bit of a dry spell and American companies were making the claim that there RPGs were better. They further hammered this point by pushing for the terms JRPG and WRPG (Western RPG). A genre should not be determined by its origin, but rather for its mechanics. I mean the first "JRPG" was created by a Dutch designer. So it has been a long time coming, but it is an important conversation to have.  -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

While the world's financial heavyweights rush to invest in the burgeoning video game industry, gaming journalism may be on its last legs.

We really hope you like the Horizon series, because a new rumor from a reliably-placed source indicates that much, much more of it is coming. There are purportedly five Horizon projects in the works: Call of the Mountain on PSVR2, some sort of Zero Dawn remake for PS5, the inevitable third game in the core trilogy, a Netflix series, and now an MMORPG from South Korean firm NCSoft. Meanwhile, a journalist attempts to race-bait Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida, and Naughty Dog hires the renowned creator of Fortnite's monetization system. But this episode's doomish vibe really begins with Doom itself, since renowned franchise composer Mick Gordon nukes id Software from space in a sprawling, 14,000 word document chock-full of receipts. In addition to other news, we round out our show with questions, comments, concerns, thoughts, and ideas, as we always do. Topics this week include a revitalized Sonic the Hedgehog, the potential of PlayStation Stars, the disparity in pricing between physical and digital software, and a rant about "with no ice," which is how all soft drinks should rightly be ordered.

Apple is preparing their AR/VR push by hiring two of the three cofounders of mixed reality development studio Playdeo. Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida has stated that the cast of the game will not be diverse because, apparently, there were no diverse people in medieval Europe. Then we talk to Rob about pinball (yes, there's a reason) as well as his thoughts on Yoshi-P's statements.

On today's IGN The Fix: Games, Many new details about Xenoblade Chronicles 3 have been revealed as part of a special Nintendo Direct. From the core cast of six characters to their battle abilities and the world they live in, here's everything we've learned today. When Final Fantasy 16 was first revealed, many fans immediately assumed that it would follow in the footsteps of its predecessor and be a large-scale open-world RPG. According to producer Naoki Yoshida, though, that won't be the case. The sci-fi RPG from CD Projekt Red is being turned into a board game. Not be confused with the original Cyberpunk tabletop RPG, this miniatures board game lets you unplug and play Cyberpunk 2077 old-school-style. Narz has it all on today's Daily Fix!

Today on IGN The Fix: Games, The Unreal Engine 5 Matrix Awakens demo was released last year to much praise and excitement. One modder has just taken it further. Rather than running through the streets as a character from the Matrix, you can swing through highly detailed city streets as Spider-Man, using a fan-made mod. Final Fantasy 16's producer Naoki Yoshida has said the game is in its final stages of development. Yoshida confirmed the progress in a pamphlet that accompanied the franchise's official clothing line, translated by Twitter user @aitaikimochi, saying "We're in the final stages of development for the numbered game in the series, Final Fantasy XVI." Microsoft has announced that May 2022's Games with Gold are Yoku's Island Express, The Inner World - The Last Wind Monk, Hydro Thunder Hurricane, and Viva Piñata: Party Animals. As revealed on Xbox Wire, the four Games with Gold will be available to anyone with Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, with Yoku's Island Express and Hydro Thunder Hurricane available starting on May 1.

On this episode of The AIE Podcast... WITT gets organized! Hey, Bioware, how soon is soon? Looking for New Life? Reach out on Discord! Red Alert, Red Alert- for the next two weeks, at least And, we have Abovan here to talk to us about AIE in FFXIV All that and more coming up right now... Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/LMiW2drlOSg Open Welcome to episode #377 of the podcast celebrating you, the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Mkallah: To my left is Mewkow: - (catch phrase here). And to my right is Tetsemi: (catch phrase here). This week we are joined by special guest Abovan who are here to talk to us about AIE in FFXIV Welcome! Since we have so much FFXIV news, we are going to talk to our guest first and then do this weeks news!! GAME NEWS We bought a house! A large house! Big thanks to Reka for helping us in the move to the large plot. Our new home is located in the Lavender Beds, 9th Ward, plot 33. The new house is on a large plot, so the house is also large. Since it is a large, we get much more real estate to work with, both inside and out. The new house will feature 3 garden plots, all of the crafting stations, and more vendors in the house, such as materia affixers, which we did not have the NPC budget for in the old house. The additional Garden Plots will help increase the rate that we can churn out the Thavnairian Onion. These items allow you to increase the level cap of your Chocobo Companion by 1. When you cap out, feed it to your bird, and you will be able to continue to level up your companion up to level 20. As the house starts empty, it will take us some time to settle in and get a full decoration done. So, things are in flux right now in the house and things may move around until we settle in on a housing layout. However, when we do, we plan on having a big AIE home warming party. We are working out the details now. When we have some more defined plans, we will let everyone know via Discord. Grade 3 Heat of Battle Buffs! We are now cranking out Grade 3 Heat of Battle buffs. These buffs provide all member a flat 15% bonus to combat XP. Since this is a limited commodity and take 70 hours to make, we will run these on weekends. During the week, we will be running the Grade 2 Heat of Battle Buffs, providing a 10% bonus to Combat XP. If you are leveling up your first job, an alt job, or just playing around with a side project, the XP bonus can really help you out. Executing the buffs, you don't have to wait for an officer! Anyone with the member rank (about 30 days in the FC) and above can kick off buffs (as well as invite characters to the FC). If you see the buffs fall off, from Friday to Sunday, you are welcome to fire off the Heat of Battle 3 and Reduced Rates 2. Reduced Rates drops teleportation costs by 10%. During the week, Monday-Thursday, we run grade 2 of both of those buffs, Heat of Battle 2 and Reduced Rates 2. Game News The Endwalker Hype Train continues! The Square Enix dev team has released Live Letter 67, and a very emotional Naoki Yoshida came out to announce a 2-week delay for Endwalker. While delays are never fun, but this will ensure a more polished game that will be now released on December 3rd for pre-orders, December 7th for the general release. With this change, the Endwalker schedule changes to… 12/3 - Head Start for Pre-Orders 12/7 - Official start for everyone else 12/21 - 6.01 - Pandæmonium, Normal mode. The first raid of Endwalker, and a great debate on how to pronounce ‘æ'. 1/4/22 - 6.05 Pandæmonium Savage. New entry level raid crafting gear introduced. The live letter also has tons of new announcements on how Endwalker will work. 67 slides worth! A few quick hits: 5 new series for the role quests! Not required for MSQ this time around. But a bonus quest line if you complete all of them will be made available in Patch 6.1 or later. No level 90 job quests, however.
