6° 2.0 Episode 3 – 6th Degree – I’m Not Squishy

Today I’m continuing my 3rd episode of 6° 2.0 with a visit to I’m Not Squishy. This is actually my 3rd visit to Kluwes’ blog in my 6° posts. He was a participant in the Newbie Blogger Initiative this year and now is part of the Blaugust event, and I’ve enjoyed reading his posts.

I’m Not Squishy – FFXIV-I Want to Be an Interior Designer

In this post, Kluwes takes a look at the 3.4 patch in Final Fantasy XIV and in particular, puts together some thoughts on the new player housing options being offered. As he mentions, he’s not all that interested in player housing and I tend to follow that lack of enthusiasm, but the crafting aspects introduced sound pretty interesting.

Actually, the only game where I’ve been interested in housing is probably Wurm Online and that was ALL player built. The fun part about that housing is that you can build anywhere and even as soon as you start the game. In FFXIV as in most MMOs, you have to reach certain milestones before you can get a house and you usually only have limited locations to choose from. The aquariums that are being introduced…now that sounds really cool.

I haven’t come anywhere close to the levels of achievement in FFXIV required to get any of these housing plots on a character I’ve played so it’ll be fun to keep reading how Kluwes enjoys the new patch.
