It’s Pride month, and that means those of us in the Alphabet Gang are suddenly marketable again! Facetiousness aside, it’s a time when lots of MMOs, MMORPGs, and multiplayer titles highlight and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community within their playerbases, so obviously we’re going to raise a glass and raise awareness. Wizard101 and Pirate101 have both […]

Once every year, Final Fantasy XIV celebrates Little Ladies’ Day, which in practical terms absolutely means people getting glowsticks to cheer for idols putting on a concert. Yes, it is a bit of a walk to get from “a holiday for young women” to that endpoint, but it happened. The latest outing is planned for Thursday, […]

This week’s Massively Overthinking is inspired by a tweet I saw from SMITE, of all games, where the Hi-Rez devs asked players to propose one god to delete from the game. Obviously, this is not a serious proposition, but in the aggregate, the answers can kinda show a trend in what people are tired of, […]

The details for Little Ladies' Day 2026 have been announced for Final Fantasy XIV, and it will offer plenty of rewards for you to obtain.

If you have played the event in previous years, you'll know what to expect. However, this guide will have you covered whether you're new or a veteran looking to expand your freebie collection. First, let's look at when the event exactly begins so that you can jump right in.

Final Fantasy XIV Little Ladies' Day 2026 will go live on Thursday, Feb. 26. The following countdown will expire once the event goes live.

The event will run until Thursday, March 12. To participate, you'll have to reach Level 15 and gain access to Ul'dah (Steps of Nald). Once the event begins, go to Ul'dah and speak with the Royal Seneschal to begin the What Eye Do For You quest.

No time for love, Doctor Jones, but there’s always time to plunder a newly discovered ancient tomb in Star Wars: The Old Republic! We begin our One Shots column today wheezing and coughing at all of the dust that Lucky Jinx kicked up in the latest pursuit of some Sith Artifact or maybe a Hello […]

So here we are, at the top of a new year, 12 whole months of screwing around in video games laid out before us. In tonight’s Massively Overthinking, we have but one question: What are you gonna do with those 12 months?! I’m asking our writers and readers to rattle off what they think will […]

Every time people discuss new things they would love to see in long-running MMORPGs, I see at least a few people speculating about things that aren’t just not happening but would fundamentally break the game. And it always makes a little twitch start up right behind my eye. It’s not that I don’t understand the […]

You may not believe this, but I didn’t really want to write this column about Final Fantasy XIV because it is entirely based on a game of telephone that is going to disappoint someone down the line. Let’s take a moment to recap. Back a couple of weeks ago, Naoki Yoshida (producer and director of FFXIV) gave […]

So a while back, in the comment section of one of these columns, a commenter noted that at the end of patch 7.3 in Final Fantasy XIV the Warrior of Light does not actually prove Calyx’s philosophy incorrect. He loses against us, sure, but he doesn’t lose after we systematically tear apart his basic philosophical approach […]

The month of December will be here before MOP’s Chris knows it, and that means he’s got to try to get some better gear to be ready for Final Fantasy XIV’s next content update. So what does he do? Why, recruit his Porg Squadron to do some roulettes and get some tomestones! Join the gang […]

Normally, the second live letter before a major patch in Final Fantasy XIV is when we find out the patch release date. Not so for the next update; we already know that patch 7.4, Into the Mist, will be releasing on December 16th. But we can still see the trailer and more details of upcoming content […]
