    SE really encouraging the Ryne/Gaia ship on their official twitter, retweeting lots of fan art and then posting this

    It’s a little awkward cause they are like 15 >.>

    Its Japan. We get married to step-siblings that are 15 in Fire Emblem. This shit is great.

    Justin and Feena were 14 and 15 when they boned in Grandia, lol. What are you expecting from Japan?

    I don't excuse it. I point to the reason why it exists. Its not an excuse. Japan literally does this. Judge japan, not people listing the reason why.

    Puritanical nations handled their communal repression one way. Japan handled it another.

    My post was directed more towards Anoat, I just don't see any real controversy here

    The controversy is that there is a pretty sizable contingent of fans who “ship” Ryne and Gaia as romantic partners and SE has been very recently leaning into that and borderline encouraging it by reposting fan art (although they have reposted the more tame stuff, there is very NSFW content out there), and most recently their tweet going all OMG THEY ARE HOLDING HANDS!!!!

    This would not be quite nearly as creepy if they were adults. But they are both definitely underage which takes it into the weird territory.

    I suspect that as a majority group of males in their mid-30s, understanding the behavior of teenage girls is not something you'll really get. Girls can get close, perhaps even awkwardly so, without being all "no homo" about it. Teens also date and unfortunately fuck, but until SE's posting/coding them scissoring, stressing over fandoms/ships is pretty stupid regardless of the cultural divide or some being (closet) pedos. In the off chance they wind up an official lesbian couple in lore, well, yay representation or something. I doubt anything posted is conceptually worse than the Rine/Shiva mechanic.

    The pic itself is perfectly fine and I actually kinda really like it. The tweet written by the FFXIV twitter person is cringe as fuck. The fandom that's obsessed with shipping them are awful and gross in a "of course these people exist" /eyeroll and exasperated /sigh sort of way.

    the fact that nobody would bat an eye if this were a potentially romantic pairing between a male and a female teenager is probably pretty close to a point

    I mean, we already had Justin and Feena. 14 and 15. Nobody batted an eye, it was just hilarious seeing them basically bone in that tent 30 times in that game.

    I'm putting money on everyone reading too much into that particular poster. Japanese culture don't care about the same shit Americans do.

    UI changes:
    https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog/003053.html

    I especially like this part, not only because of the KH reference:

    Displaying Adventurer in Need
    Another addition to the Duty Finder is the ability to view which roles are benefiting from the Adventurer in Need bonus directly from the list of Duty Roulettes. Whoa, talk about ease!

    The Duty Roulette names will also be simplified~
    Simple and clean is the way these changes are making me feel tonight, it's hard to let "Duty Roulette:" go...
