The roleplay community in Final Fantasy 14 is, simply put, an ocean. It’s absolutely massive, comprising several servers, hundreds of night clubs, bars, fight pits, free companies, and homegrown drama. It’s big enough that last year, someone thought buying four billboards in California and Texas to advertise their virtual nightclub was a good idea (it…

For the fastest chip ever to grace a gaming PC the Intel Core i9 14900K is about as boring a CPU refresh as one could be. We’ve seen it all before. The massive core count, the architecture, the 6GHz clock speed; the 14900K might do some things better than the 13th Gen but it rarely…
