Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Is good hombres a word filter thing?

The plural of illegal gets changed to "bad hombres", because it was funny for a while after that came up. I just never bothered to turn off that filter.

And somehow I only learned about it today and fell victim to your machinations twice! Once using the term, and the other not realizing it was a thing and grossly misunderstanding something!

THANKS ROOKS.

I was wondering how long it'd take that to be noticed.

I'm not sure sometimes if we are all getting word filtered

Yeah, I built it for April Fool's Day, but I gotta say, having this on-the-fly word replacer around has been a comedy goldmine

TONIGHT PIZZA!!!

Question:

Could we have an option to turn that feature off in the account menu? While amusing, it gets annoying.

Share!

No, because part of the reason I've left it around is as a backup profanity filter (since the real one requires a patch/deploy from the boss to change). I don't usually leave things up; 90% of the time there aren't any active swaps. I just got busy and forgot to disable the one for hombres.

[Edit: I've disabled all of them except Galka Mayo. That one stays.]

Eh, but you let us disable that as well, :\

Steak...pizza?
What is this heresy

White pizza sauce and steak? Hmmm...

16. Optimistic consideration of the jump potion
F: If you were to release the jump potion, I think the best timing would be with the release of Stormblood. What are your thoughts on that?

Y: Currently we are 70:30 for releasing it. I talked about that in detail in a previous interview, but a lot of people seem to be discussing it very calmly in the community. Of course, there are people who are against it, but I also think that many will accept it, by how it stands. Many players think it is a necessity for the new players that are going to join the game with the release of the expansion. Many players want to see FFXIV grow, so the 70:30 isn’t that unrealistic. However, we need it for the Chinese and Korean version, so we will develop it, we just don’t know if we will release it for the global version. Please do give us feedback.

F: If you were to release it for the Japanese market, how would it look like?

Y: For the jump potion, you don’t need multiple versions of it, so we are thinking of implementing a potion which will take you the previous level cap of the current expansion. So if the jumping potion was to be implemented, the effect would be that you would instantly become level 60.

F: I see.

Y: If we don’t do that, and if the jumping potion would take you only to, let’s say, level 50, you wouldn’t be able to play with the current players. The concept behind it is that you can level up and enjoy the scenario with friends. But you must get to the current level cap with your own skill.

If I change the real profanity filter to allow runtime changes, then sure, the swapper can be optional. Until then, I need a way to keep things out of Google searches.

However, we need it for the Chinese and Korean version
