its a waste of time but its your time to piss away

I am confused at your main point. First you said US will "collapse", and BRICS will win. Then you said US has wage stagnation? How are they even related?

1. How does wage stagnation leads to US collapse, realistically?

2. Does BRICS suffer from wage stagnation like the US or not?

3. If they don't now, will it happen once they reach similar level of GDP as the US?

If you can answer all 3 questions above, then maybe your conclusion is grounded in reality. Otherwise it's just baseless doom and gloom.



I blame Rady. Dude just took every possible opportunity to rant about politics with tons of biased opinions, then you either ignore those biased opinions or respond.

I was in the exact situation as you when I returned in like...2020? Maybe earlier? I forget...

Stoped ff11 when Married 2012, kid in 2013. Came back expecting to poke around and not do much because of the massive time commitment required. What I found? Bunch of people just like me and content that is built around 2-4 free hours on YOUR time.

Today? Kids go to bed between 8 and 9.30 (depending on which kid). I log in pretty much at 830, that's when "events" start. Events are whichever people want to do that day. I also run a dyna group thurs/sun cause it's a blast.

I've never missed a single swim practice, date with wife, dinnertime, skateboarding session, trip to the beach, or lunch with friends.

Today's ff11 is built for today's ff11 player. Come back and enjoy.

Not here in the USA.

But these last two pages have gotten way deep into social justice and comparative wages and hardly anything about AI.

The dog should wag the tail, the tail should not wag the dog.

Elon Musk and Jeff Beizos were able to build their empires because of the infrastructure of the nation they setup in, that was built off the back of current and many past generations of American workers.

You think Elon Musk and Jeff Beizos would be billionaires if they tried to do what they did in India? If Indian workers are so valuable why don't they go there instead of making sure they stay in the US?

If you're an amazing artist or writer (or businessman), the reason you were able to perfect your art and can carry it out is not becasue you're a super special wonder snowflake but because of all the infrastructure around you that lifts you up.

The police giving you safe environment and stopping people burning your house down, the sewage workers that allow you to have clean water and toilet facilities so you can concentrate on your job, the power workers that make sure you have constant energy, the medical system that keeps you healthy etc

Globalism is some BS, it's a system the mega wealthy want in order to be able to farm whatever they want from anywhere and ignore the people/society who helped them build up their empires in the first place.

It's extreme selfishness, and the act of paying taxes isn't because they want to but because they know they have to in order to be allowed to exist at all.

They don't want to do this because it leads to generally higher queue times on populated servers. People tend to stack their runs back to back. It's not so convenient to have extra KI if you're waiting 30-40 mins between runs... worth?

It's not, they announced it as 100k per year and would apply to all people currently in the country too. The next day they got massive pushback from the tech companies and now it's 100k one time fee and only applies to new entrants. Nothing when you split it up over a long period of time.

As Thorny said, the best way to fight this sadly is to use the dark magic. Make it a social justice issue, fight for the rights of Indians to have all the entitlements western workers have and that will make them less appealing as preferential worker drones for the machine.

You either need to stop them being profitable / coming in, or you enshitify them as a workforce, under the guise of social justice.

Indians will gladly work long hours and have less benefits, so the choice needs to be taken away from them and they need to get limited working hours and higher pay forced upon them to make them less desirable as they currently are.

If they currently have the choice to be amazing workers and boost productivity for the companies, their value needs to be ruined by unions and progressives.

Issue isn't the economy, it's that Asura queue times would explode on weekends if groups were doing 7 back to back sheol runs. They could be planning some of those changes if they can ever get servers balanced again.

1/3 on Temenos for me this week
1/4 on Apollyon.

Now smartass, try answering this:

Whos FFXIAH's CEO and where was he born?

Hmm... Bill Gates?


Thats a hard one... Manitoba?

The game does not necessarily need to be easier, but it certainly does need to be more accessible. It's a 23 year old game, the majority of us are 'old-timers' which means you are very likely AT LEAST in your mid to late 30's if not 40+/50+

How is that real life clashing with your ability grind out 12 hours a day now? Is it any wonder people bot?! Well, that's a topic for another day...

Reduce the grind? I wouldn't say no, and I can see why the ask. However, just make the game more accessible and remove the silly gates.

Yes - 1 man dyna entry. We need to enter 4 diffent entires just to unlock Relic Armour stage 2 upgrades.

Other time gated content. Keep the timers, just remove the entry cap. i.e. let Mogolophones generate every 20 hours, but let us stack more than 1. This balances how much one can ultimately grind out, but makes it more accessible for both solo, and easier to find parties. Compare and contrast:

"Sure, I can come/help you, cos i'm sat on X many Mogolophones"
Vs
"I would help, but i'm locked out for another 5 hours, sorry"

Just let us pick and choose our grind, and importantly, when we do that.

Also... INb4 someone says "BUT MAH ECONOMY?!". lol. The economy is dependant on players moving goods, so you want to encourage access to content, not gate keep it. What you really mean is "but my particular income stream might be disrupted slightly!" - to which i say "I'm sure you are enterprising enough to find another, just like every other disruption over the last 23 years".

/endrant

Us v.s They mentality is a trap.

If you fall for it, you become a Rady.

I mean
to be faihhhhhh


He may have not been lying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hes not really the brightest poster, just loves to hate on the game, you are wasting your time replying to him because he does it to be snarky.

This is mostly just a rhetorical question but...do you think at all before you type these messages? Do you think gil isn't available for sale on servers except the most populated ones? There are GS on every server who will gladly sell you massive amounts of gil.

People (like you) are flocking to whatever server they think they can get content done on. Whether that be from making friends and finding groups, PUGing, mercing, or whatever their preferred method is.
