Is This the Turning Point for FFXIV?

It’s been a minute, Buns! 🐰 My Warrior of Light has been hibernating, but with Patch 7.4 dropping on Dec 16th, Yoshi-P’s kitchen is officially open and I’m ready to see what they’re cooking.

In this video, we’re breaking down why 7.4 might be the pivot point we’ve been waiting for. The story is finally hitting the gas pedal on the road to 8.0, and I am here for it! Expect many cutscenes in sequence.

But the biggest news isn’t the story… it’s the **Fashion Bunarchy**. Glamour restrictions are finally lifting, and I’m drooling over those knee‑high scholar socks harder than Zenos staring at his “Best Friend/Enemy” during a monologue.

✨ *Topics Covered*
The Story Pivot: Yoshi-P promises acceleration, but will they stick the landing for 8.0?
The Backlog Slog: I missed 7.2 and 7.3… the “Returner’s Curse” is real.
Glamour Unleashed: Why the new freedom is the best self‑care update in years.
Tom Morello?! Rage Against the Machine in FFXIV?! A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Plus: A quick update on my move in the PNW (Real Life Housing Savage) and a teaser for a spicy WoW player housing video coming next week.

💬 Let me know in the comments: Should I stream the “Backlog Slog” or do it off‑camera?
